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…

Just wanted to share with you some facts on the food we give our plants. DM Liquid Gold - additive that are fed to meat birds in poultry factories with a slight change to make it usable by plants. Mineral Salts (in all non organic nuts) - 2% away from commercial toilet bleach. Rockwool - .1 atom molecule from asbest Dont know how many of you really go into understanding what they put in our plants food. I was using canna and dm for the last 3 years and only after i spent some time in a grow farm of one of the co-ops in NSW, I got that we are giving our plants POISON. Aside from some of the shit they add in: "Its Ironic to see that most commercial marijuana ma…

Hey all, new member here, I have chopped my first stem for a clone, i was looking for a good one to cut and found a lower branch that had tripple nodes all the way to the top! it's only a small one...about 20cm but looks like it could have good results..if i dont kill it first I dipped it in purple clone gel and put it in a jiffy pellet, chopped the bottom leaves and trimmed the middle ones, i dont have much equipment on hand so i have to constantly look after it, spraying the leaves and keeping it humid inside, How long (if it doesn't die first) should i expect for a root system? if i had the right equipment i'm sure it would be a fast process. anyway is this a common…

Haven't grown for 5+ years but last time I did I used some stuff that was primarily a cloning nute as feed for my seeds from the time i planted until 2 weeks. I'm buggered if I can remember what it was. Really want to use it this time around as it gave great results, my little babies sprouted with stems on them 1/2cm thick. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Hi There Have issue and question. I am now about 16 days into flowering and switched to 'bud' nutrients..etc.. The plants stretched a bit for the first week, but it appears to have stopped and they are really starting to solidly bud up. However, I have noticed that a couple of the leaves here and there are going a bit light green and yellow. Also noticed that the steps have gone a kinda purple/brown at some parts, but still normal green at other points. Is this anything to worry about? One other forum, someone else had the problem and dropped the PH with a touch of vinegar in the water, but I don't want to start messing around unless I'm sure. Second (question) - …

Sorry for this nooby question. I just got these seeds and start potting them How tall can a Nirvana's AK-48 strain grow? It's an indoor seed, reckon it should be like knee height? Previously, I had an white widow strain which grew just above my knee. That was perfect! I am really worried if my new batch turn out to be 3 times the height!

I have just ordered some NL X BB, Just wondering if anybody has had any experience with this strain? When doing a SOG, what yields could one expect, the site said up to 600grams, that's a bit of bullshit? P.s love this site, great peeps, heaps of useful info for a novice. Melb
