I'm using osmocote plus organics and vermiculite in the soil, just not sure what to feed it when it comes into flowering time, I really only have Bunnings that I can go to. Can someone please drop me some photos of some nutrients they know of from Bunnings that'll work during my flowering period. Seeds root shot out after 3 days of being in a paper towel. The seeds now in the soil with a cut plastic bottle over it with a 100w cod led light above it. This will be days 3 in soil and no sign of anything so far. I have auto BlackBerry's from fast buds. ✌️

So I grow in perlite/coco and have a new 100% perlite grow coming up. Bottled pk seems expensive so if added on bottled recommendations I'd be getting a new bottle every grow. Are there any cheaper non bottled pk alternatives? Something I could get from bunnos which I could still mix up in my feeding tub with the other nutes?

My northern lights is looking good, will be 56 days Monday, so that's 8 weeks, though might just do over weekend, not sure if last few days will help much. Under a 600w hid on MH currently n was at 50%, upped to 75% recently, n she intially wilted a bit, so raised height. Not sure if should give her full 600w on flip with light up high in tent, bring down over a few days? (Just on hid, coping power ok, just noise of fan which is needed to keep cool driving me nuts, led might be soon) Keen to flip though!!! Plan to keep MH for 2 weeks, have heard this is good then swap to HPS Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile app

Hi all, I hope I can get some advice. I am still pretty new at growing and on my third grow. Currently have Harlequin, Critical Orange. and Alaskan Purple. organic grow 1/3 compost 1/3 perlite 1/3 coco coir. pH 6-6.3 I recently purchased the full range of Ozi Magic nutrients and all plants looking well and growing great. What I did notice is that their recommendations are to use a pH of 5.6 - 5.8. when in flower/bloom. Is this recommended by other growers? I have not read anything about lowering the pH for flower stage so thought I would check here to see what others suggest. Thank you for advice.

I think my Zombie Disco Female is turning hermi after I topped her a few days ago. I put her straight into 12/12 and topped after showing female signs which I belive may have caused it? Ill keep an eye on it and see if its judt re growth from the topping but i dont think so... Not sure if I should just cut it and start fresh or cut the sacks off as they appear? I've heard it can stop producing sacks after a few weeks? Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile app

As the title suggest, i'm looking to buy a 315w CMH Ballast. I have no need for a reflector, yo-yo's or extra's, I intend to using the Philips 315/930 3100k bulb in whatever i settle on. I guess i'm looking at something mid range. As in no cheap chinese knock off's and i'm not prepared shell out $$$ for overpriced Hi-par crap. What i have found that caught my attention, is the Lumatek Controlable 315w Ballast. Anyway, looking to have about $500 to go shopping with. Can anyone point me in the right direction for a better option? Cheers

Bunnings Nutes 1 2 3

Yeah I know it's a bit of a crap choice but with my employment looking shaky it's time to tighten things up. Anybody ever had and decent success with Bunnings nutes? The Manutec hydro range looks decent enough, probably just need to research the contents so you can dial back the N during flowering and pump the PK. But it looks like it can be done pretty easily on a low budget with their range. And maybe just add seasol as a folair and soil tonic. 3.5 weeks into my very first grow at the moment. Using the Biodiesel range with 2 autos in coco. I don't really have anything to compare it to but I'm pretty sure that the sensi pro is working very fuckin well. Would love t…

Hey peeps...... I won’t go into detail just yet but after some opinions on how to approach this. Was just skipping through a seed bank in aus. Came across a new strain...... but!!!

I've been inspired by DoNothingGarden's thread to make my own potting mix for next year's crop. I have 4 worm cafes (from Bunnings) and 2 X 100litre compost bins so no shortage of worm castings or compost. Over the last few days I have ordered: Canadian Sphagnum Peat Moss 5mm Scoria Rice Hulls Malted Barley Grain Regenerate Blend Aloe Powder Kelp Meal Neam Meal Crustacean Meal Rock Phosphate Gypsum Mycogold Beneficial Fungi Biochar Fulvic Acid Powder Have I forgotten anything? When I've made the soil up and let it cook I currently plan to plant a green manure crop until I am ready to start the new crop. I'll buy some of DNG's 95 litre fabric pots when they are…

I'm tying to order more seeds in Aus during the last week. Can't access the SSS site at all, the Aussie Canna site says it's under construction ( only selling hats and toys) and nil response to 3 separate email orders I sent to Dinkum seeds. Yantra is the only site currently working ( and I have an order on the way). What's going on with these other sites??
