Hey guys Just wondering if I could get some thoughts. I just recently have been smoking some really mouthwatering outdoor from a good friend of mine. Im loving this bud soooo much right now. More a Sativa type high which is my fave. He prefers outdoor organic style growing where as I have only really got into the indoor at the moment. After buying a couple oz's at mates rates I know have a nice collection of some really well formed, pretty seeds as well as some he gave me of the same strain. I have popped 3 seeds and have some strong looking seedlings working on their 3rd nodes now just chilling in my veg box. My biggest question is should I continue these babies ind…

Hi Can anyone pinpoint what the problem is here? The new leaves are curling up and the colour is pale. It is a pinapple chunk, in canna coco with a little perlite. Feeding weak nutrients at 5.8-9 ph. The tip of one of the 1st sets of leaves is brown, which looks a bit like nute burn, but I would expect the colour to have got better before any burning happened - its been a light green pretty much from the start. I have been thinking it may have been heat so ive lowered the rack a little. There is a power plant next to it in the same mix getting the same nutes which isn't showing any ill effects. P Chunk Power Plant Power Plant seems to be showing a …

hi I went to the hydro shop the other day I went there I bought some benefical bacteria. while I was there I asked if they sold water chillers for my nute tank and he asked who said I needed one I told him I want to grow in hydroton / clay balls over summer and would like to keep my tank at at constant 22 as I have been running my water at that temp for the last 6 years now. then he said that they don't sell them and only sell water heaters and started to tell me its fine for the roots to get up to 28 d at that point I made my purchase and got out because I thought he was talking shit. so what do you guys think is he talking crap?

hey just wondering if anyone has had problems with the tap water mine is 0.8 ec and after a few days with a air stone it drop and flashes between 0.6 ec to 0.8 ec is this very high ? can it cause me dramas? I say this because iv been using ro water in hydroton / clay balls for the last few years and when I went back to cooc at the start of the year clones in small pot they where lush green feed with ro water. then I move house and think I may as well use tap water since I have a friend that grows in the same suburb with no dramas so I went back to tap water and as some know iv had so much dramas it not funny. anyway just wondering if this hard tap water could be my prob…

Just a quick one, three or so weeks to go, starting to keel over! Figure its a deficiency during veg possibly. Using Powerfeed and potash during veg, Powerfeed, superbloom and potash during flower. Lack of silica perhaps? Any ideas?

Hey blades, after a ton of research and weighing up pros / cons of coco nutes, I'm still overwhelmed with the sheer amount of info / bullshit info out there and can't decide on a decent nute line that isn't ridiculously expensive. I've looked at standard lines like canna, CNS, etc. but they all seem to be so unnecessarily expensive (especially due to where I live). I've looked at cheaper powder nutes like dyna gro and jacks classic citrus feed but again, being in australia means somewhat limited options and I can't warrant paying more for postage than the product itself (may aswell go with the super expensive canna then). I've found a brand of fertiliser at a local sho…

Hey guys, Im growing again for the first time in ten years, so Im alittle rusty and am doing outdoor instead of hydro so it could be interesting. I always sprouted my seeds in water, but these ones may be too old cos they have just all sunk. I read somewhere to plant them as soon as they do or they will drown Have never tried the wet paper towel method either. Anyone have any suggestions??

Hey all, I was looking for some advise on sexing plants. Mine are currently about 13cm tall and have 4 nodes. When will I be able to determine the sex of the plants? Would pictures be helpful at this stage or will I have to wait until the bloom phase to find out? Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Hi everyone, I'm looking for some clarification on flowering times. If a strain description says flowering time of 9 - 10 weeks is this from when flowering is induced or from when buds become apparent please? I have some SSS Bubblefucks that I thought wouldn't be ready for another 2 weeks or so but most pistils are brown and they are starting to foxtail significantly so I'm wondering whether they could be mature enough to harvest now.
