General Cultivation Q&A

Hi all got a question? I;m just about ready to flip my plants for flowering. changing over from the 130cfl to the 400 cooltube. I also have to repot them I cant repot and leave in the veg chamber as they wont fit so its straight off to the flowering chamber, I have been veging under the 12-1 system anf the main light period is 7pm to 7am now I want to run the hps during the day 7am till 6pm (you start at 11 hrs ib the 12-1 system) So should I repot them during the 1 hour break and then give them a long nights rest? which would be repot between 12.30and 13.30 leave in the dark till 7am next morning (17.5 hr long night) OR repot and the long day under hps 23 hrs (Long …

Just wondering if anyone know's how long it takes for cannazyme to start working on dead root matter? I have a shit load of roots on this grow, to the point the water is finding it hard to filter thru the pots, thought CZ might possibly break down some of the old crap in there a bit and make some more room etc. I remember watching a video once on CZ and how it breaks things down etc, but dont recall how long it might take to start working in a plant situation. Cheers.

Howdy all, Can i get some additive suggies from some of you here? I will tell you my situation anyway, 400hps growing in 50/50 coco perlite hand watered in pots. currently white rhino, and prly will be next grow too. Ive used the whole canna ab, rhizo, cannazyme, trio which i wasnt all that impressed with to be honest, not that it was those nutes, more likely something i did, but really, the cannzyme and rihizo isnt ment to used the whole way thru from what i can tell, or its be a waste of money anyway. I found too much rhizo made the roots grow out the bottm of my pots way to quick. Right now for this current grow tho, i started with canna ab for vege, with rhizo and…

"Hypothetically" If someone was to start growing in a cupboard with Sufficient LED lighting kit and space for 3 plants and a ebb and flow system for the nutrients, and rock wool as a growing medium, what would the best mix of nutrients be? (must be able to buy in Australian stores) Will be doing the usual 6 hours dark for 3 weeks then 12 hours dark for rest of time with the lighting and running the water pump 15 minutes every 3 hours to soak the roots and let drain. I have pretty much every other aspect worked out but wanted someone with experiences opinion on which brands and types of nutrients or additives i should use throughout the growing cycle. Thanks for the h…

hi guys can anyone give me some advise on trimming my plant. i am 3 weeks vegging and 1 week in to flowering. what leaves do i cut of and does it do any harm to the plant. i know i have to thin it for the light to get to the bottom but dont know if im taking branches of that will be producing bud. also is it right that when you start the 12/12 cycle the plants will double or even trble in size ? any help would be good. thanks.

Hi All, I plan on setting up my grow room again pretty soon. I am just a bit concerned about the new laws that are about to come into place in WA. I am hoping you can give me some tips and tricks to help reduce the risk of getting caught and let me know what things I can do to stop the cops coming around uninvited. My setup is as follows: 2 x 2.2 x 1.2m Tent 4 Plants 600w globe Exhaust fan with carbon filter Setup will be in the back room of a normal looking house in a normal looking street. What else do I need for stealth? Is there anything I should watch out for? Anything you can suggest would be appreciated.

Hi, Ive been in flower right now for 2 weeks, im using Potash and bloom nutes. Been using dutchmaster Potash at 1.5ml Per litre and then about 2 ml per litre of the bloom nutes brings the EC to about 1.8 Just wondering if i should be doing the bloom nutes first at say 3 ml per litre then less of the potash? My bloom nutes recommends 4mls per litre. If i was to do 1.5per litre of the potash and 4 ml of the bloom id be at 2.2 to 2.4ec, so end of the day im not sure how to split the 2 things up. Im still not seeing hardly any sign of flowering after 2 weeks so im wondering if im under feeding with bloom and maybe too much potash?

How are we my fellow Weed Fanatics, I've been smoking weed for quite some time now. I recently bought a bag the other week and was surprised to find a couple of seeds in it. i dont know what kind of seeds they are and i dont really care to be honest but always wanted to grow a little plant myself. now live in Melbourne so i can never predict what the weather is going to be like, the only good thing is i told my mum about it and she's all cool with it! so ive decided to plant! ive got a little terracotta pot and planted it there filled it with some soil from one of the tallest tree's in the back yard and some potting mixture. I have decided to keep it in my laundry which…

G’day everyone, has anyone ever kept a male vegging to use for cloning, I am about to start down this path. Usually get stuck smoking the same strain for months on end, I have not been using mothers just cloning from clones. Cloning is faster I know, but with limited space the plants only have to be 600mm high and bushy to go into my flower room. This size can comfortably be achieved from seed within the approx 60 day flower cycle. So theoretically every time I put plants in the flower room I just have to plant new seed’s and they will get 60 day’s to grow which should be enough to sex them and reach a reasonable size. So here’s the plan, the 4 strains I received…
