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

hi all, just wondering if anyone knows if its possible to find a way to make my bud tighter. the strain is not known for produceing very tight buds, they are still very healthy and of good size but im hoping just to tighten them up a little. i've been told that if i reduce the light by a couple of hours during the last week or so of the cycle, that it would somehow trigger the bud to tighten up. does anyone know if this true or just the ramblings of a mad man ??

All four of my plants and in separate pots, coco with a base of clay balls. Using run/waste and feeding 4 times in 12 hours, and 9 days into 12/12 lights. All the new shoots are coming through yellowish. they are under a 400mh and a 600hps (40cm above). The two directly under the hps seem to be more yellow then the other two. Last night i started using half stregth nutes and I added 1ml per lit of PK13/14. I thought it might have been a lack of potasimim. Please HELP me have I done the right thing? .....Pisslips......

Im currently preparing an outdoor grow, Will be purchasing the seeds from BC Bud Depot Now I have a few questions, Price isn't a problem, Now first of all im fairly sure i want to go with organic nutes but can anyone recommend me some organic nutes or their opinions on organic growing, 1. I was thinking about Canna Bio range but i have heard complaints of no dilution rates, Can anyone confirm this or recommend a different range of nutes, 2. Growth additives : I was thinking about some Roots Excelurator, Although i also saw something called Rock Super Growth which was also interesting as it is an organic nutrient, Any other recommendations for any additives that w…
