General Cultivation Q&A

Hey guys, I've just started my grow. I've currently got 2x Burmese Kush in rockwall under my 250Watt Fluro light. Basically the grow i'm doing is this: https://cannabis.community.forums.ozstoners.com/topic/33328-coco-how-to-prep-your-coco-and-get-growing/page__p__300423#entry300423 but with perlite mix. I'm also having a water pump, to pump ph adjusted water/neuts through. I have the good canna A & B neuts. Which one do I use for veg? And which one for flower? I read back but it was kinda..pretty much same on each bottle. & how often should I do it? My plants that are in the rockwool are going to go into the pots probably tomorrow & I need to know asap (thanks…

I use canna coco as a nutrient, with potash. Every Monday I use pure water to simply clean the medium out of salt. I find that every time I use pure water, my plants use a LOT MORE then when I add nutrients. Anyone else noticed this? Is this how it should be, or something is wrong with my nutrient? Should I just use pure water instead of cannacoco ?

hey guys so I'm doing my first grow and was originally going to do it all old school, veg for however long after my clones rooted, then flower, etc. I'm thinking now switching them (today, 2 weeks into veg) to flower for 5-6 weeks then harvest. ill be doing more clones in the future and heres the plan: for quicker harvests of more smaller plants, 15-20 clones under 100w or similar clf for one week 24/0 after rooting to stabilize then switching those under 2 x 400 hps 12/12 (separate grow areas) for 6 weeks then harvest get clones every 3 weeks to rotate into cfl. my hope is to harvest at least monthly if not every 3 weeks or so I have white widow and strawberry cou…

I was on the train the other day listening to a conversation two guys were having about an additive/nutrient called U-Turn. From what I could gather, without making it so obvious I was totally immersed in their conversation, is that this product stops the plant from growing on application (foliar spray I think) when turning plants to flower enabling all of the energy from the plant to be put into flowering. I did a search and have found the product for sale but have not come across any reviews or feedback - can anyone help with some more information ??

A quick question for anyone with any knowledge on the topic. I may potentially have a male plant that I would like to grow and collect some pollen of to use on some ladies. I don't want to grow it outdoors as its to high a risk of impregnating the girls. I have a 50w fluro and some other 20w's but no HPS or MH. Would these lights be strong enough to produce some pollen out of the male? for some reason I thought males would require less energy to produce pollen as it seems like a little less effort on their behalf . Anyone that has done or knows something on the topic please feel free to reply. Cheers Scraps

Hi everyone, I've purchased a mini greenhouse similar to the one seen on this page. It is basically a plastic dome with some drainage at the bottom, and airholes at the top. The only thing is, I don't know how to use it for my seedlings without creating an oven and baking them! Do I put them directly in the sun, for as long as possible every day? Do I only put them in the shade? How fast would it dry out in the sun? Has anyone used one of these before to give me some tips... I'm planting in Jiffy Pots. Thanks
