General Cultivation Q&A

Anyone use one? Im trying to cover all my bases before starting and since I havent had the experience of growing and trying to control odours I have heard these are OK. Im going to get a CF but wonder about how I clear teh smell from when I open the tent and then close it again... there will be smell in the room that I want to get rid of I will be in an apartment so trying to be as safe as possible. Any thoughts im asking here as the internet seems to be 50% positive and 50% negative on both methods.

I had previously had tried to grow 2 "pot"plants, The first was an auto that grew humungous and never ever flowered and even with the advice of you guys, no matter what I did to it it just kept growing and after some 10 months or so it was turned into compost. The second was another auto but sent to a friends very early on due to renovations, it almost died at their place from a combination of PH lockout and over feeding but eventually flowered and they apparently made good use of it. Attempt number 3 has been a success, my little "Northern Dwarf" auto was a true survivor, she grew to 84cm (seed bank info 30-50cm), survived the heat wave and has produced reasonable well…

Heya all need some advice here on when to flip do to my circumstances and what would be best for the plant(s). here is my grow for reference https://cannabis.community.forums.ozstoners.com/topic/66121-the-stoned-jesters-2nd-80w-cfl-grow-lushhazeskunk1-x-blueberry/?p=429743 so on the 14th of april they will be about 4 weeks old from 'seedling' (first cotyledons showing) now i leave for holidays on the 22nd of April so they will be approx 5 weeks old when i leave, maybe by then they would start to maybe show some pre-flowers? i have people to water/feed the plants no problems, but i want it to have as little interference as possible as they are greener thumbs than…

Hi all I am in the process on building a grow room it is 1.6 x 2.6 and 2.5 tall. I want to do two 1.2x1.2 scrogs starting of with one then getting the other next grow. The problem is I'm not sure what hydro set up to go with I am leaning towards 2 flood and drain tables filled with clay balls. Dwc sounds good but I am still unsure how to clean the buckets when it's under the scrog. Any feedback would be great. Thanks

Hey guys , Just recently setup a recirculating dwc system ,losely following the guide found at cannaversity http://cannaversity.com/cannaversity/article.php?id=097 Now my issue is that the bukets won't feed back into the control bucket. So within minutes the 2 pots are over flowing and the control bucket is empty. Even with the pump off they don't level back out. My thought is the control bucket is outside the tent but the hoses have to go through a hole in the tent it's about knee height wich means the hoses aren't level with the holes on the buckets could this be issue ?

I have an awesome looking dutch passion mazar... she is still in vegging and nearly outgrown her 55L pot now ! woohoo! Feeding schedule is very basic of Cannazym and Canna A+B.... What possibly Could I add to her feeding schedule to make her thrive and get her even bigger before the flowering starts? Would Gogo juice apply or maybe even seasol? I have even thought of dropping some fish guts that have been chopped up and left at the bottom of the coco in the big 150L potting bag she is about to be transplanted into... would this make it way to rich of nutrients and burn her? suggestions guys!! If not because this is bassically a coco grow is there any other hydrponic n…

Hi guys, Some people are always looking to reduce their "stretch" period of flower. Extra light, light spectrum, lowered N levels etc. and sometimes even pgrs... Just stumbled upon this article the other night... thought it may add good food for thought/discussion on the viability of this technique And the full article which you should also read... http://extension.umass.edu/floriculture/fact-sheets/controlling-plant-height-without-chemicals A cold blast for 2hr upon lights on....? What are your thoughts...? Peace!

I currently have about 10 plants which are 7-8 weeks old and still in veg, I have 6 confirmed females and 4 which I suspect as being male. Most of the females have been showing their pistils for several weeks now, the suspected males however aren't showing much more than little nubs some of which are pointy, the only thing I can confirm is that these are not pistils. Anyways I'm about to switch to 12/12, how long do I have before i need to cull these males? I'd like to be positive before removing them.

I put in a couple of freebie "Thunder Bloody Mary" seeds, one of them is a headless mutant. Or perhaps the leaves have merged around/over the leader.. hence the strange little leaf poking out of the stem. I don't have the right camera gear for decent photos but the ones attached should give some idea. There appears to be a shoot forming at the first axil, and I am tempted to let it struggle on the see what happens. Has anyone had one of these mutants and tried to grow it on? If I was to let the shoot get bigger do you think that the plant will think the new shoot is/was the original leader and continue to grow ok? Thoughts or opinions welcome.

Hi all! So I am thinking of growing some indoors. I was wondering if I had to buy spore syringes online or not, or is there are any other ways to start growing them? If buying them online, can anyone recommend a website which delivers to OZ? Thanks, crunk
