General Cultivation Q&A

Roughly how many kw wld you use for a 4x4 indoor grow. With 1000w hps and 1000w ballast. 1 intake fan. 1 exhaust fan and 10000 btu ac/dehumidifier? Do you have intake and exhaust fans on 24/7 ? Or only when lights are on?

Ok so i was reading though an old cannabis growing book and came across a technique that looks amazing but a lot of fucking around. you get a plant and LST it off to one side as normal, but they reckon you can take the side branches going down and 'clone' them into the dirt and they become an extra root supplying the plant. o_O; same way you would take a clone but you propagate the end into a root system .... so it becomes like a creeper plant. kinda like this EDIT! It's my 1000th post YAY!

ok guys here are afew pics,had to get on the laptop todo it. i'm growing sensi big bud feminised seeds.they are doing well so far.only been watering them with ph balanced rain water.no nutes what so ever.as you can see underneath the screen is a jungle with nice fat indica leaves and flower sites that aren't going to make the screen.i've really tried to keep the canopy even.still could of veg alittle longer but just was alittle unsure how they would stretch.almost filled my screen tho.all were topped at about 2weeks and alittle lst to spread them around alittle and bring up afew more bud sites,as I said guys this is my first scrog attempt so I think I've done ok so far.…

Hey guys, got a rdwc 4 bucket system. Ph 5.5, ppms generally 500. Dutch master a and b veg, zone, silica and calmag all at half strength. I'm getting signs of nute burn/calmag deficiency yet that can't be the issue. I had root rot at the start due to high temps but sorted that with a chiller and lots of zone and time. Root mass is pretty much pearly white now and I get plenty of new growth. I only get these issues on older fan leaves. Anyone shed light as to what's happening? http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14/12/30/a7b58988f10cf7c343766b6da27e61a0.jpghttp://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14/12/30/160092d2fd246bc4d3be823f09b3434d.jpg Thanks in advance guys

Hey guys, HAd a terrible experience with Dr Greenthumb seedbank as advertised in HighTimes - I sent them a cash order before the start of our season, and have been waiting and waiting, I finally contacted them, and was told "we never received you order" - Ok, it happens, so I wait another 2 weeks, and email for an update and was told "we don't have your order, don't ever email here again, and F off!!) To me that is crap! Just because we are half a world away they think they can treat us like that! I think that is rubbish! Without customers, business go under and especially in this industry, where the customers are trusting the company will send them what they order (l…

Hey Fellow growers, hope you all had a merry christmas!! Im still yet to create a proper setup, for now im just going with the flow, but I want to create a system setup, and I have an idea I wanted to run by other users who would have more experience and would be able to let me know if the design would work before I go purchasing all the parts etc. *my main requirement is to have the ability to move my plants from inside at night, to outside in the sun during the day. So one bucket per plant is probably required, as i cant see little 5 foot, 42kg me lifting a large tub full of water with multiple plants. Also important is shut off/ closure valves (I think thats what…

hey guys and girls merry xmas and all that... hey me and the young bloke have put a few in our tent to head up early to give us some smoko 7am till 7pm started to show so do we need to keep them on 12/12.or now theve shown, can we leave them out as the days are getting shorter???? dont want them to try and go bck to veg..

So I am going to be ordering 25 or so seeds via Attitude Seedbank and was just wanting to hear some other people's experiences. I am ordering to the house next door which has no one staying there but still regularly receives mail for at least 4 of the previous tenants so I know thing's being posted to that address is not unusual.

I have just entered into the world of growing, I have successfully germinated 6 outta 8 seeds in a electric propogator. I am using a Mag357 LED and 2 planter boxes in a grow tent, I have hooked up a heater set around 24 c and have used seedling and cloning medium as my growth soil mixed with vermiculite. Also have set my timers at 18/6 light dark have set up a hydrometer and my humidity is sitting round 26% and I guess my only real concern is mildew and mold as LED doesn't give much heat, Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Im not afraid to admit, maths, ratios, percentages etc where never my forte at school, i was all about the English and Grammar (although my posts dont often show it haha) , and wouldn’t even attend maths, so i know basics, but in terms of the instructions on the back of the Canna Coco A & B nutrients, it has left me thinking...What the f**k .... the instructions: Shake bottle well before use Fill nutrient reservoir with water Add CANNA COCO A & B to the nutrient reservoir with the dilution ratio 1:25 (40 ml A and 40 ml B per 10 litre of water). Add CANNA COCO A to the nutrient reservoir Stir well, then add CANNA Coco B Again, stir well and let mixture stand for so…
