okay so we have four babies, we've had them for about 2.5 days and they looked OKAY when we got them, a few leaves were curled and a little spotty. they're starting to look a little better but the tallest one (it was the most damaged) is still needing alot of attention, its growing a decent amount of little leaflings on the stem though...is it normal? ps this is our first time growing so we're really new at this and we pretty much go off of instructional videos from hightimes, 420, etc. pps we have been trimming it a little and i think we should just cut the leaf off but my boyfriend wants us to wait it out and see if it heals, which most of our plants have been doin…

Hi all! Long time smoker, fist time poster! I'm sure these questions have been answered before, but any help would be greatly appreciated!! I'm interested in growing 2 or 3 plants in my house. I'm not really looking for any kind of hydro set up, just a couple of plants in some pots, in the sun-room of my new place. In saying that though, I also believe that if you're going to do something, do it properly, so if there was a super-cheap and easy option of doing a hydro set-up that someone could recommend, I would be appreciative. Plus, (and I'm sure this is showing my ignorance), would this set up create a spike in my electricity account? I've probably been watch…

In a nut shell..... Some of clones have these flattened main stem towards the top of main growing tip. Branches from main don't look so much like branches but a split off the main. Plants seem Very Very Healthy. Vigorous growth like I have never seen before. I am impressed and curious as to now the cause ......and the effect of this seemingly induced oddity. Which is rarely seen. Your thoughts and questions please. I have https://cannabis.community.forums.ozstoners...on_open.gifmore info to share. And would love to hear yours.

About five days ago 8 seeds were planted and of these only 1 has emerged and it looks sickly . 95% of all other seeds appear in 4 days. These seeds were bred from plants grown from shop bought $10 a fucking seed parents . The seeds were pollinated by same variety being lowryder #2 .These plants are apparently hybrids . All seeds were brown and ripe .They look good , can they be infertile ? Another factor may be that the seeds that were planted were removed from plant and planted within 1 hour , do they need to rest , dry , age whatever ?

Hi guys, How many lowryder #2 feminized seeds do you recommend that I grow simultaneously in a 7 pod aerogarden? I currently have 5 seedlings growing 1 week. So, I have 2 pods free. Is it possible that with the right lighting placed above and to the sides, I can realistically grow these 5 plants in 1 Aerogarden Deluxe. The height issues isn't a problem since I have the 24 inch light and the Lowryders don't go above 18 inch from what I heard. It's my first grow so any help would be appreciated.

Does anyone have experience with a NZ made device called Hypergrow? Its basically a phototron as far as I can tell..it has 4x34w curvalume fluoro's (big U-shaped ones) and either a philips sl 18 prismatic (veg) or sylvania electronic lynx bulb (flower) -both fluoro's-eddison screw. Consists of a base with wheels, a top with light fittings and ballast, a heat pad, a raised tray within a tray (ie:pot with res) and all four sides are white painted sheet metal that slides down aluminium angle brackets (This gives it stability-it's a basic frame otherwise) I've used it a few years and need some replacement parts--found some places that sell them too-- just wondering if anyone …

Found this floating around and was wondering if anyone here has tried or knows if it helps with growth? Quote Hightimes: BREAKING Breaking is an advanced technique(Supercropping II, Sep. 00 HIGH TIMES) whereby you break the inner herd of the plant without damaging the outer, which is where all the plants strength comes from. Break open the stalk of a cannabis plant and you'll notice immediately the hard, outer herd. This is where textiles come from. The soft inner, lighter colored material is pure cellulose. The plant passes water and nutrients cell to cell through this network of cellulose. Breaking the plant's inner walls will cause it to rebuild. But it rebuilds…

I have been keeping my eye on one infected plant and its powdery mildew problem (should have just cut it early). I trimmed off the affected areas and sprayed with Serenade a week and a half ago and have been monitoring all the other plants. There was just a bit on a few leaves but I was planning on harvesting in a couple days, so I figured it would be easy to take care of. The problem is that just today, the stuff has popped up on all my other plants, and in a bad way! There isn't much on the fan leaves, but there are patches in the buds themselves. These babies may be able to go another week before coming down, but that's pushing it. I was planning on starting toda…

Hi everyone. Ive got some Poison Dwarf on the grow atm (auto flowering strain), in a mixture of perlite, coco and soil. The reason for all three is apparently autos do better in soil but can be more proned to root rot hence the mix of perlite and coco. I read somewhere that flushing should be done at least once a week in soil to get rid of the salt build up. Should it be this often considering its an auto strain and only has about 2 weeks veg and 8 to 10 weeks flower? Im using about 40% soil, 50% coco and 10% perlite; special sauce and molassas mix for the first 2 weeks (special sauce is my home made fert concentrate using a Bokashi bucket - potant stuff at about 1:100!)…

Hey guys, lightning and I are thinking about building a Hempcrete house and looking at the possability of growing what we need to get the fibre required to do so. Has anyone applied for a licence to grow the commercial stuff, and what do they require when you apply? lightning worked out we need something like 2ha, we are trying to work out if growing is going to be more expensive than simply purchasing the bails from growers as we would require around 500 (I think) bales to build the basic house to begin with. Anyhow any info you may have will be appreciated, oh yeah we decided to apply for the first home owners grant and purchase our repayments will be less than rent …
