General Cultivation Q&A

Hi I'm just finishing my first grow/harvest of 4 plants. For regular watchers to my space, my drying dilemma would be described best as 'ordinary'. And to top that off, the jars I bought from Crazy's aren't even airtight! I found this out when I rinsed them out, filled with water, activated the seal, turned upside down, and watched the water trickle from my wrist, down my arm...!! Where is the honor in Cheap Retailers these days...?! Anyway, my reason for taking up this space is, as stated previously, I'm just finishing my first grow/harvest of 4 plants. My concern is that there were so many branches/arms of the plants that didn't reach full potential in my 1m x 1m Gr…

Can I mix monsta bud with a+b nutes ?

howdy peeps, After doing my first run of flowering on CFLs, I've decided to switch over to a HID, for at least flowering anyways.Only problem is have a few questions I couldn't find so thought I would ask instead of continuing on banging my head. I originally chose CFL for power savings but while it made some nice buds, I'm hoping a HID will make the 2nd gen perform better. First off, after some research I plan on spending a bit of extra cash and buy a Lumatek 400w/250w ballast. What i can't find out is how it connects to the lamp shade. My CFL shade has one of the monster connectors built in, inside the shade is some magic and it connects directly to the socket. What…

Hi all Have been away from growing and weed in general for a few years now but decided to plant a couple this year just for the hell of it. I decided to grow outdoors this time and choose Frisian Dew from Dutch Passion. Has anyone on here grown this strain or have any advice on it? If not I will write a blog. So far the plants are around 20 cm tall and have been in the pots for 7 weeks however 1 is starting to head they are both in the same area so does anyone know why this might be happening? Cheers

Hi guys im pretty sold on those adjustawings. Old school. They have been around for ages. The massive avenger 1000w series looks fantastic. Im thinking of putting one in a 2.0x2.0m tent. with some AC in there for the cooling. They have a HUGE light spread. Best I've ever seen. Cannot get that out of a cooltube or aircooled hood. Opionions guys? On the website of adjustawing reflectors. One of the guys had a carbon scrubber, the adjustawing with 1000w. MASSIVE light spread. I'd love to give one a go in a tent. My tents located in a garage with cold concrete floors aswell. So temps are not an issue!. And there is not a real need to lower it real close to the plants. T…

Guys im after a 1000w setup . Im not running two 600's so ive got the 1000w idea the and space and electricity. problem is I can't find a hood. I have a good budget. and after a 1000w good lamp. Im going with a solistek ballast aswell What kind of good reliable hoods that are worth the coin in australia? Im thinking aircooled. Ive seen the OG hood but I dont think it will fill a 5x5. Maybe I should do a massive chinamens hat and have the fans just blowing on it? ideas guys? I dont know. The best suggestion for a 5x5 tent. I heard this a good size for a 1000w..
