General Cultivation Q&A

I have been using the Nutrifield range of nutrients along with the Nutrifield Coco bags for the past year and have been mighty impressed with the results and the general health of the plants from start to finish. Who else out there has had experience with products from Nutrifield? I would like to hear other peoples experiences with these products and how they have worked for them or any problems they may have encountered.

Ok so ive been doing a bit more research into the DWC method and it seems like a really good way to grow. Theres a few things im still not sure about so im hoping some gurus can shed some light. What size pot do you go for ? Ive seen some video tutorials about this and some say 3" pot and some say 6" pot, that seems a little bit small ? ( im talking about the pot that sits on the lid not the pot that holds the water / solution ) Do you still have to have some kind of soil or mix in the pot to give the plant some structure? like in the photo below can you go for say 80% of clay pebbles or hydrocorn / hydroton and then soil on top of it ? or would you just go 100% clay …

Hey Stoners , Just thought i would try something different with some Cannaporn pics. I was giving the garden a clean up last night and my girls were looking extra sexy for some reason ( ill let you decide why) so i decided to take a few quick shots but this time around i want you to tell me what strain is which. What i can say is they have all won High Times Cannabis Cups About 12 in total (estimate only i will count them up and add later) that will tell you they where very popular for consecutive years (hint hint) and that there is 4 strains there and one COPYCAT same strain just 2 of them. Well good luck if your interested in how i got them to …

Hey Os, Just wondering if anyone here is a buff on Co2 Enrichment i currently just buy a 2lt bottle vinegar and 500g baking Soda and put it in once a day but it is messy and time consuming. I was wondering what is the most cost effective way off introducing permanent self-timed Co2 Enrichment. Price is not a big issue i would like to get the job done under a $1000 but any help be great. I have looked at gas bottle and regulator but seems dangerous and i think my garden is too small for a Co2 Generator. This is my garden Homebox Tent 1.2x1.2x2.0m 600w Sunmster Duel Spectrum 2 x 48w Nelson 3000 warm Cfl's 3 x 48w Nelson 5000 daylight Cfl's 600w Lumitek Digi…

G'day Thought i would put this topic up for the wider community, as much info and feedback as possible would be great. So like most fledgeling growers i have big dreams of someday creating a strain worthy of jumping on a plane flying over to the Netherlands and spending 6 months growing it out and WINNING the HT Breeder Cup. We all can dream right ? RIGHT. But my question starts here, now im sure back in the day when shanti, Soma, Teddy and the likes got to creating some of the worlds most renowned Strains to this date they did not have the tools and the technology the average grower can posses today but yet they come up with the goods. Today there is so muc…

So, this might be described as a question about 'extreme growing', but I'm curious about the possible potential for regenerating plants after harvest again and again for as long as possible. Thus, if a person were to grow a plant from seed, run it through veg, then flower, then harvest the plant but leave some leaves etc. on the plant, and then reveg for a few weeks, then go into flowering, and so forth ad nauseam - how long can a person theoretically do this for? I've read in some other sources that a cannabis plant might be kept alive for up to 12 years if it's cared for properly and provided with the right lighting etc. Wondering if it would be possible to veg/flower…

hey, I hope this is the best place to post my questions, hopefully someone could shed some light. Basically I have unfortunatelly had to pull half of my outdoors as they have turned hermie, sad as these where some good looking plants 1meter plus tall even after LST... I won't get as much of a yield as I would like from the females that I have remaining, so I'm trying to decide if it too late in the season to take more cuttings from my mothers (which are 2 weeks into flower) and gain a decent yield from them if they strike well (or will these branches yield more if left on the original plant to mature)?? FYI lights are not an option for reveg....Also I'm latitude 3…
