A friend of mine told me he watered his plant with his dirty bong water he says that is why it was so chronic... I said you need more proof and that the strain of seed was just good... So it got me thinking if the plant was more potent from the psycho active chemicals still in the water then why isn't anyone feeding there plant with the potent chemicals like thc and cbns.... well maybe the plant cannot absorb it, or even that if it did absorb the thc ect, once absorbed into the roots it would change the chemical make-up of the thc ect because of photosethesis and how it gives nutes to the plants if thats so then the bong water watering wont work... But then again I don't …

G'Day, After a lengthy hiatus i am returning to one of my favorite hobbies. Problem is in the 3 years or so since i last put a plant on i have forgotten a great deal of information. At the moment my little 7 day or so old seedlings have nute burn. I have decided to let them grow and see if they can recover or not. Today I have germed a new batch of seedlings and im looking at starting again correcting the mistakes that i made with the first batch. Anyways that's a little off topic, I have spent the last day or so researching the topic of this thread and i have come up with a fair amount of varied information. There seems no definite answer as to how much nutes shou…

Hiya stoners , Err my plants are only 17 days old... day length will be 12/12 in 2 days time ! Its good to know that i have 3 fems so far ! But in all honesty i dont want these plants to start budding in a sog style ! Do you guys think i should let em go and allow them to revege ...OR..give them extra light to prevent the buds coming on ?? Damn i thought i'd be safe to allow 6 weeks before they became mature and the length of the days would allow them to continue vege growth . Umm some input would be greatly appreciated ! Cheers guys 'n' gals !

Hey all, just wondering if anyone has tried the following technique and had any luck, ill start by explaining my set-up. I'm currently using 3 x 600w Hps covering an area 1.2m x 2.4m, the plants are growing in a self built flood and drain set-up in clay pebbles. Im just about to go into flowering and here comes the dilemma, Ive been considering (as i have only 2 months left untill i move) wether to try an 8/16 (light:dark) system, where by i rotate the plants, so that out of my 24 there are always 8 in the light room, and 16 in the dark room, changing over every 8 hours, sorry if thats confusing, . therefore essentially using 1.8kw of electricity to the equivalent of 3…

I've just started a final flush and was wondering what others do? Do you use reduced nute or no nutes? Do you heat your flush fluid or not? Do you use rain water or tapwater? Do you use a timer on your pump or just constant flow? How often do you change your flush fluid and how long do you flush for?How many days? Just interested Merl1n
