Hey ppl, I just like to know what kind of scents you get from your plants and do the scents change over time? or just intensify? right now I love the smell of my plants, they are almost a savory (gravy and onion) type of smell, it's strange but it actually brought back some memories of a meal i once ate when i was really young hehe

Dear All, Hey Canna Nation the is my first post so I'll introduce myself I'm not a grower I'm a chemist/agronomist I'm head of the research department for a leading brand of paclobutrazol. Paclo is registered for use with mango, apple, pear, rambutan and some others in Australia. It is very mildly toxic but has a strong degradation curve i.e. it breaks down quite quickly so 21-30 days is required to get the residues down to a negligible level. It’s no secret that the vast majority of the commercial mango and avocado etc. (high value fruits) use paclobutrazol to reduce the canopy and increase the fruit number quality and size. Superbud has Alar which is toxic and is …

Hello Everyone, I have just started to get heavily into taking clones, (with mixed results) so far I have had about a 60% success rate on rooting the clones. If possible I would like to change this into a 100% success rate and I was wondering if a heat mat for my clones would help. Right now I do my clones in a weak nutrient solution in rockwool under a cloning light for about two weeks until they start to show ample roots. What does everyone reckon?....do heating mats work?.....I have looked at the expensive ones with a thermostat but I am tossing up which one to buy???...any suggestions guys?

G'day Everyone, Had my first attempt at cloning and successful thus far ( thanks to the bubble cloner tutorial ). All of them are at about the same stage with roots. Should I be transplanting them yet? or wait for more root growth? They will be going into a F&D with clay balls. As always, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi I hope everyone had a good Christmas and a happy new year. I have a question to ask any experienced grower. What I have is three plants growing and they are in the sixth week of flowering. I don't know the type of plants they are but I do know that they are Sativas, anyhow they are in a growbox and I can't keep the temp down. It is sometimes at the one hundred degree mark! They are growing on a 12 - 12 cycle and looking worse for wear due to excessive heat. I also have several small plants growing outside and they are in a shade house and growing really good and healthy. The question that I want to pose is can I take the flowering plants and put them outside without…

HI. I live in Adelaide, and I don't have much money for a grow op, but I can probably afford (just) the seeds (5) and cheap pots. I want to start growing outdoors in the next 2 or so weeks (hopefully it won't take longer) I have absolutely zero gardening or similar experience, and I am well known for having poor hands on practical skills Nonetheless I am determined, because its that or give up weed for good because the habit is too expensive (actually don't like the word habit, its not very addictive). Okay so what I do is: Get the seeds, put them in a glass of water, wait a few days or so until they look different, then grab them and place them 2-3 cm beneat…

Throwing some questions into the ring. Please discuss... How long does coco fibre hold its stuctural integrity? ei How soon does it get too dusty? Does any one have a technique for separating dust out of the medium? Are there any ferts or minerals that build up longer term that cant be removed by flushing and have a detrimental effect ? When should you call it quits on reusing the same coco? What else do ya reckon? I'm really still a little inexperienced to hold ant firm opinions yet and am all ears. Thanks
