Hey last couple of days the wind a rain smashed my sprouts. Most were bent way over looking dead. Though with a clear like tube , and sticks ive managed to stand them back up, there only a couple inches tall.

I ordered some seeds a month or so ago, my plant is small at the moment, maybe 3 inches tall, last few days i noticed that the main growth point wasn't doing much and looked a little like a bud, didn't think much of it as first then i had a close look this morning and notice some small hairs coming out of it, and a few other hairs around the plant. I am going to get a magnifying glass today and have a closer look, but is there a change this could have been a Auto-Flowering seed. It's an outdoor btw. - Edit - I also planted another at the same time, this one is vegging out and getting some nice growth,this one hasn't however, making me think it will either be a male or a…

Hi guys I’ve been lurking in this forum for ten months and I have already grown three crops. Thanks to all of you that take the time to share your experiences here in the forum! I’m very happy I don’t have to deal with dodgy people or drive/wait for long periods anymore!! Now I have a problem I never had before. I have way too much weed and need to store it. I’m looking to keep the weed for up to three years, is it possible? How long time do you think until start losing potency? Can I keep them in airtight jars or should I been looking into a vacuum sealed bags in the refrigerator? Is it any other methods to store the weed? S. P.S. English is my second …

Hey guys, I've just flicked my first indoor grow ( just this one plant ) over to flower mode, today. about to add some more hydroton to fill it up to the rim of the pot so it doesn't get any fungus etc. how do you guys think my pineapple chunk plant is going so far? I rekon it looks rather beautiful. Excited to see it triple in size during flower! BRING ME DA BUD! haha. I don't know if this is the right area to post but I didn't want to post on grow diaries because this is most likely a one of thread. next grow, I'm doing 4 plants so I'll do a grow dairy!

Hey guys I'm new to growing and will be making a small grow box when I get back to melb. I have got the short rider auto flower fems from nirvana and have no idea whatsoever on what nutes,soil,lighting. I mainly want to know about the nutes. Because I don't know when your meant to water or how often,are you meant to water only when the soil is completely dry? Because I don't want to over water. I just wanna get all the info before I attempt it. If any of you could help me with a regime it would be appreciated a lot. I don't know if I posted this in the correct place but sorry if I didn't Blakey

Hey there everyone just wondering how the hell we are supposed to keep our grow room temps below 30c. Its not even summer yet and in already struggling I have loads of fans etc but the best I can hope for is to match outside temps. Air con is not an option. Does it really make that much difference and is there anything I can do about it.

Hello first post ever... k80 here i have a bag of mushroom compost fertilizer, but i have been afraid to use it as i have not used fertilizers or even grew interior before. my plants had went thru stages of light green leaves back to healthy looking dark green leaves, and as they have been in the ground about 2-3 weeks now i am debating whether or not to use fertilizer, and i am not sure if the mushroom compost will affect my ph adversely or possibly even kill or damage my plants. i have tried to keep this very broad and open as i am here more for knowledge to improve my grow rather than go through an endless amount of troubleshooting that can dwindle my yields or even…

Okay so somehow I came around to getting some seedlings in miniature pots of soil, usually I just get some clones slap then in a rockwool slab and turn the lights on. My questions are, how long do I wait until transplanting them? At the moment their under a 600w with 1 node of 4 leafs and a second node JUST starting to emerge. And when I do transplant them is it okay to just cut a hole in the rockwool slab the size of the pot and put the seedling with the soil in? Other then that I have a bag of perlite, but just wondering would it be optimal to use rockwool? or will perlite do the same thing.

I'm doing my first indoor and liked the idea of 5 hours less light on the girls so jumped straight into the 12-1 system. It seems to be humming along really well but as it's my first indoor I don't know if I could have achieved quicker results with the standard 18-6. so if you could let me know if you've tried it and is it as good as 18-6 thanks Puks

Hello Stoners. I got a few new toys recently, a pH meter & a Bluelab truncheon. I've got no worries using & reading them... I have noticed that the girls are drinking heaps but not eating over the past few days. Now... We're 6-7 weeks in, flushed under a 4-5 days ago, pH is perfect, drinking 15lt a day & eating not a thing...? The girls look fine, not stressed or anything but with these new toys of mine I am a bit. Who knows they might have always done this... Anyone else had this? Grow hard, stay safe. Greenbum.

Hi guys, I have upgraded my res to a 220lt barrel but am finding that my barrel seems to be draining really fast - overnight seemingly. A friend has said that with the pressure of so much water in the barrel, after my timer has switched of it my be syphoning through my system to my plants untill the barrel is dry ?? Has anyone else had similar probs ?? If so how did you resolve it. I know I could perhaps half fill the barrel but that kinda defeats the larger res upgrade.... Thanks
