General Cultivation Q&A

I'm setting up a type of flood and drain. It's a plastic kiddies pool (flood tray) and I'm not intending to drill holes in it if I can avoid it. From the heart I'll have water going in via a pump and then an aquarium pump to pump out of the kiddies pool. I'm in all perlite 3gal fabric pots. I'll flood 6 to 8 times a day. On draining the kiddies pool, there will be about 2 or 3cm of water that the pump won't suck up. The fabric pots will be sitting in this 3cm of water at all times. That 3cm will be exposed to my hps light. I know there are better solutions (drilling a hole etc) but with the current setup would it be a problem? I'm leaning towards no as the water gets ref…

Hey guys Currently in week 4 of flower on a 600w HPS and thinking of making the change to a 480w full spectrum LED. What are your thoughts? First grow here. Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile app

I bought some fabric bags off eBay. 40cm diameter/30 cm high. Im worried that height may ultimately be an issue in my new tent. I saw somewhere that people had folded their pot-rims down, then stapled them to reduce their height from 30cm, to say 20 to 25 cm. I used a volume calculator which showed 40cm diameter and 30 cm height = 9 gallons. If I reduce the pot to 20cm height, 40 cm diameter, it reduces it to 6 gallons, which is plenty for a LST or scrog grow. Question....is 20 cm deep enough, or will it not matter because the 6gallon volume is there? Thanks in advance....

Hey friends, So basically as per title, was wondering pot sizes. this is my first grow and i was gonna start with 2 seeds in 30cm pots. however would i be hindering the yield so much by reducing to 20cm pots and maybe doing 4 pots? just wondering what the best option would be for my first time i didn't want to go all out with 4 pots and end up ruining them all and end up with nothing atleast if i ruin 2, i can try again.

Hey guys, So i'll give u a bit of a run down of my noobness that got me here i had a few females that got pollinated and produced a shit load of seeds up until maybe a day ago, i was keen on using these seeds (from pollinated autoflower OG) i even researched how to check if seeds might be female anyway, i got told yesterday that hermie seeds are bad (i never thought about researching this aspect) so now (i think) i'm fucked (but hope i'm not) anyway i just found some proper seeds i ordered online maybe 2-3 years ago but for the fucking life of me, i cannot remember whether i had ordered autoflower seeds or not not to mention that i had no fucking idea about growing 2-3…

Hello I'm looking for a strain with the less smell possible... I want to start a small cultivation with a goal at 100g per year. I thought maybe auto/fem northern lights could be a good strain for my project (outdoor in garden, quite space with no visibility but still neighbours... Discretion is primordial !). I would have prefer a pure sativa regular plant, but... Yeahhh discretion discretion. In my mind, 4/5 auto per year (in a row every 2/3month) could provide me this amount of 100g per year. So here I am with no fucking idea where to buy my seeds ! Is there a serious seed bank with my "precious" (northern lights auto/fem) I should choose ? Is there any other strain w…

I've run out of room in my 3x3 veg tent. Moved a few regular plants into flower tent(currently not used) on 12/12 lights, 5 days ago. Sex of plants is now apparent. I'm thinking of flipping the females back into 18/6 to veg another 3 weeks( using my flower tent), as I'd like them a bit bigger. I've previously read that plants in flower can take 3 to 4 weeks to revert back to normal veg growth. My plants aren't in full flower, just showing sex, and only stretched a few inches so far. In this case of only 5 days exposure to 12/12 light, would they still take 3 to 4 weeks to return to normal veg growth, or would they reveg much quicker ? Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile …

I've dealt with SSS twice before, and he sent legit seeds ok both times. I ordered again 8 weeks ago. He was waiting for more seeds to mature, and advised if I paid $80 for one pack upfront, he would send out two packs when seeds are available. His website domain name has disappeared, and my emails are bouncing back. What's going on with SSS? Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile app

Hi Ime wondering what is the best to plant.....I'm gonna order some seeds and I want a short compact plant for outside.....femalized indica....I have looked at so many I'm confused...I have been growing for years but never had much joy...but its so hard to get seeds I better get it right...cheers Annie

Hi all Does anyone know if what would happen if I pollinate a feminised plant with hermaphrodite pollen (different strains)? I've done some extensive searching here and the interwebs and can't really find an answer. Cheers All
