Hi all I have a question about -(calaxis-trichomes) – I have read a little on the subject but. I am wanting to know if a female plant has more calaxis is this a sign that the plant is going to be stronger (THC) than the other’s and if it had minimal calaxis could still turn out to be a massive (thc) developer?. As I have read people saying that they have plants with hardly any calaxis that have turned out better than the ones with abundant amounts of calaxis. My question…. is this true? 1) Say a white widow plant with not many calaxis. -Vs- a strain not as refined as white widow in strength (THC) but it had more calaxis would be stronger. 2) Or 2 diff kinds o…

Hi guys I don't know if this is best posted here but I thought you may find this really interesting. I spent some time going through Glows site last nite. http://www.integralhydro.com/plantgrowthregulators.html (He's given ingredients and instructions on mixing PGRs) Wow - what do you think? Who's going to give them a go and let us know how they worked? (I don't use them) He says on the site to feel free to pass the formulas on..... Christ, I think there may be some pissed off manufacturers out there. MR

So a mate sent me a heap of ak47 seed recently and i planted about 10 doin the usual- looking for a good mum to take cuttings from. I raised em like i raise all my seed, soak for 24hrs in filtered water then when they break put em in potting mix under 100W 6400K CFLs for 3-5 weeks on 22on/2off a day. Then I take cuttings from em all and throw the mother plants under 12hr on/off to find the best/males/females. My prob is that everyone of the 10 turned male on me! Now Ive only been growing since i was a kid, over 20 yrs, and I have neva had a ratio like that! Does anyone have any ideas why? I thought it may be something im doing? or is it just bad luck and i should sta…

Hi there, Looking to clone for the first time. I know the process of taking clones and how to look after them but I am slightly unclear on the process of selecting a mother plant. I will explain what I was going to do and hopefully someone can tell me if this is correct. I have 3 plants that have been vegging for about 1 month now from seed (not female seeds) I was going to chuck them from 18/6 down to 12/12 until they show sex, get rid of the male/s and then revert back to 18/6 veg a bit more and then take cuttings from the fem plant/s is this correct when growing from seed? Thanks, UC

Has any1 had any experience growing lowlifes auto russians?? they say they only grow 14 to 18 inches high and r ready in 9 weeks. So far mine are 13 weeks in n only just starting to flower at about 4 - 5 ft high . . . . . so much for 18 inches!!!! not that this is a bad thing, just wondering if turning the light back will bring them in quicker or will it have no effect on an auto strain?
