well basically after the exceptional results i have had with my organic aquaponics producing terrific flavours i thought i might like to experiment with a few different organic soil and soiless mixes. basically there are tons of great organic mixes getting around on the forums but trying to find ingredients or whatever over here can be tough so im going to attempt to create something using mostly ingredients from bunnings or local nurseries. im going to attempt a coco based soiless mix loaded with natural composts and worm castings etc and similarly a traditional soil based potting mix with lots of organic ammendments. stay tuned. any advice from anyone who has gone…

Hey All! Just ordered some seeds - since its my first time, i decided to get some autoflowering ones, and hopefully will mix it up as time goes by. I've been looking at lighting, and this stage I plan to grow one or two plants in a small room. So I'm thinking in terms of lighting 400watts, or even 250 would be OK. I was thinking of getting a light setup that consisted of a MH for germinating and growing, and a HPS for flowering. Ideally would get both at once, but no $$$ at the moment. Alternatively, I was looking into a 180watt LED, that should be a lot more efficient, like this: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/2012-Compact-HIGH-POWER-180W-3w-LED-RED-BLUE-Hydroponi…

Has anyone else seen a bud (bout the size of a cone) grow right in the middle of a shade leaf. Seen I about 4 years ago when an exs brother was growing Durban I totally spun out, then I was talking to a mate couple weeks ago and mentioned what I've seen. He then told me his last crop he pulled had exactly the same sort of mutation on one shade leaf, funny enough he was growing Durban and another strain we not sure what strain it come from. Haze

hey hey ive just completed a test of house&garden roots excelurator against canna rhizotonic was sceptical as i always use canna rhizo and house&garden excelurator was only in a small metal 250ml bottle and its worth a hundred bucks. as i was told by h&g the concentration factor has to be taken into account 0.3 ml per liter compared to 4 ml per liter 4 the rhizo h&g works out 2 over 900 liters of feed water per 250ml. h&g told me that it would cure root rot 100% and i should get a quicker growth period also. i have run 3 plants on h&g and 3 on canna the test amazed me im never using rhizo again ive just turned back after 4 weeks of grow my normal…

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…

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!! I got a nice little plant from a mate who grows hydro. He gave me one that was cloning under a light 24hrs a day. I took it and planted it outside in a nice sunny spot on Fathers Day and it's budding like crazy!! It's only about a foot and half tall. I tied it down and it's got nice stems growing up from about 10 different points so I'd like to keep growing it if I can til next Mothers Day. Once it's flowered, will it revert back to just growing again? I'm guessing I confused it by taking it from constant light to day/night. I'm pretty sure it's an indica if that helps. All advice is gratefully accepted. Cheers!!
