General Cultivation Q&A

Am I right in thinking hydro grown weed takes less time than soil grown to reach stag where it can be harvested? If so how much sooner can it be harvested?

My bluelab truncheon failed. Email sent and they asked questions and eventually meter was sent across the ditch (NZ). Within 5 days of them acknowledging it's arrival a brand new meter was returned. I have been very busy of late but they emailed every few weeks asking how the meter was which eventually motivated me to mail it. Brilliant service...........cannot recommend enough. Got 6yrs out of my last one.

Hi guys Looking to do a new setup in a medium sized garden shed. Cant get to it too often , maybe 2 times a week , so I need something minimal maintainence and self sufficient previously done flood and drain with expanded clay works quite well but I have found salt buildup is an issue with this system . but its pretty resilient apart from that. any suggestions ? verticle height may also be an issue , I would guess about 1.6m is the hight of the shed. perhaps even soil ? any help appreciated

So I harvested my plant and I have frozen everything from the plant. I plan to remove them and throw it in a bubblebag. Should have i dried it out first? if so can I still? If the trichs are still good in their frozen state should I go ahead with the bubble bags or pull it apart, grind, dry, chop before the bag?

what do you think of my homemade pipe yo?

Hey all, long time lurker first ever topic post (yay) Just wondering as to what the general go is with keeping your plants warm during the night when flowering? ie in a 12/12 cycle, how do you keep your grow warm if the temp in the grow area drops? Mate of mine is planning a grow in his shed in a cupboard and doesn't think temp in winter will be a problem, hope he's right i guess...

orite i got some perlite/clayballs and about 14liters of coco in this tub.. any thoughts on how to re-use it? thinking to tip it all in the bath and try and separate the perlite from the clayballs get somekinda siff get all the roots out also.. and then the perlite and coco.. there isent too much coco tho.. and im just not too sure on on what to do after that do you just keep rinsing it for ages until its clean or do you soak it with something. or just plain water.. then left the mediums dry right out.. rise again before use..

Well after the phenomenal growth of this clone i put in i decided to expand my dwc experiment. heres the clone now and i could look at these roots all day, but then it would die

Hi. I have a little grow area 1.2m x 1.2m x 2m high It has a 1000w light and is set up fairly well. I was going to have 4 plants in there, but due to various reasons, my brother has suggested to me just to have one plant. Does anyone have any information about how 4 plants (in the confined space I have listed above) would go vs 1 plant in the same space? Will 1 plant produce a similar yield, but perhaps take somewhat longer to fill up the area? It will enable me to optimize the light and nutrition for that individual plant to a degree probably not possible with 4 plants. We have a problem though, its about 4.5 weeks into VEG, and its in only a small pot (30L…
