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 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

Hey crew I had a quick search on these forums but the keyword rhizotonic comes up in a loooot of posts so apologies for repeating a question that’s probably been asked a tonne of times I’m about to take some more cuttings and put them in my aerocloner . Was wondering if anyone has used seasol for this ? $10 for a litre vs $80-$90 with rhizo .. Or are their any other cheaper alternatives - I’ve always had success with rhizo but I’ve never used anything else I suppose Cheers Jimboss Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile app

This is yet one more Soil Mixing tutorial. This one is going to focus on making a batch in the city while keeping it neat and tidy. First we use a tarp and a sheet of plywood under so the shovel will slide easily as we mix and scoop. This was created over 35 years of soil growing and blows away any method I have tried. Hydro growers that swap over never switch back to water. Here is the recipe to make this concentrate! You cannot grow plants directly in this super concentrate! 8 Bags Roots soil or equivalent high quality supped up grow soil 25 pounds Pure Worm Castings ½ cup Azomite trace minerals 2/3 Cup Sweet Lime IE Dolomite 1 Kilo Bone meal / IE 5 Pounds 1 Kilo Bl…

I have not put this as a glog becuase i know i will end up losing interest.So reason for this is the number of phenos produced by pineapple chunk has made alot of haters for this strain.Now i currently have mine 3 days into 12/12.Before this plannt starts to bud i can see the pheno and know that im in for an excitng grow.Give me 90 days from this post and i will show you all why i think this strain kicks it.Keep in mind if they did not have a stable strain i would not know how this grows and what it will produce.My lights are of at moment but i will post some pics.Leaf doesnt excite me (or anyone) but this strain does so i will do pics of plants as they progress.I should …

Hey guys. I just received Afghani #1 seeds and excited to start my first hydro grow. These seeds are regular, not feminized. Should I just stick them straight into my perlite/verm mix and soak with pH adjusted water? Or should I germinate them first with wet paper towel or other method? Should I germinate just 4 seeds for now or germinate all 10? Anything else I should be aware of for starters? FYI, I have grown before about 10 years ago in soil (first time hydro) so I understand a small bit about growing but I just want to make sure so I don't mess this up.

I have only just started using the Bunning's Brick Coco. Previous to this I have always used pre buffered Coco. This is what I started to do with the Brick Coco and 7 weeks in I really cant tell the difference between the $35 Bag of Canna Coco i have used for the last 10 years and the $2 Brick Stuff I'm using now. 1. Put the Bricks in a large pot with drain holes and pour 2 Jugs of Boiling Water to make it expand for about 10 minutes. 2. I flood it with Tap water (0.25 EC) around 4 or 5 times until the run off becomes clear. I don't bother getting the PH of the water right. I estimate I put through around 20 liters of water to get to this point. 3. I mix up 2 m…

Hey guys. I'm a bit confused as to which form of Canna I should get. I'll just be growing in soil, using normal water, indoor, hopefully using just the canna to feed them (and some PK13-14 later) Initially I thought the Terra would be the right choice but after reading the Canna site I'm thinkint the Substra... but everyone here seems to say the substra is for rockwool etc not ordinary soil Any thoughts?

So my autoflower showed it's first sign of life today, poppen up out of the soil! My mate gave me what he said was a 100w cob led light but IV just found out it's only pushing out 50w.. this is all I have got to work with for this whole 2 months of growing this autoflower. Should I leave my plant under the 50W cob led light 24/7 or leave the plant outdoors on nice days and then move inside under the light when the sun goes down until the morning and so on? Please help guys, thankyou!

Hey all, first time taking cuttings, they have been in the dome for 3 weeks, no visible roots as yet. I used clonex with the cuttings and they are in ezy plugs. I was wondering your thoughts about the first pic attached. To me it seems like a deficiency, could this be a sign roots are coming? Any advice appreciated! Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile app
