General Cultivation Q&A

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 ?

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 …

I'm browsing until the growroom is set up... and I come across stuff... Hope this is the right place to post it and that it's useful... Has anyone had a good look at the new inventors wesite on abc.net.au? www.abc.net.au/tv/newinventors There has to be loads of stuff there of potential use to a grower... The Electronic Water Purifier Fytowall-vertical garden system :D --Imagine an enclosed room...all four walls of phytowall... ..Lotsa big lights and ventilation... or...a narrow room, phytowalls to either side and vertical and horizontal lights with a shitload of lowryder seeds :D Quietwave--- "When it’s noisy in your apartment because the guy …

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!)…

hi all, ive been told that if i tip my plant it will increase yeild? is it true? is it worth it? does it harm the plant much. its about 10 inches tall. thanks heaps.

Topping a Plant 1. Locate the very top of your plant and cut through the main stem just below the newest growth. This should be done after the 3rd or 4th leaf set but can be done at any time after the 3rd leaf set. 2. Shows Plant Top cut off and where the 2 new Branches that will form a "Y" in the main stem will grow from. 3. Shows the newly topped plant after 2 days of growth, notice the Y in the Stem Forming. FIMMING A PLANT! Fimming is actually no different that topping, what fimming does is virtually the exact same thing only your leaving part of the new growth. This only takes of part of the new growth and actually topping the very very new growth which is…
