My 3 plants are all hermies! I noticed some balls a week ago but there was about 99% fem flowers so i thought they were ok (never grown before). I went away for 5 days and when i got back i noticed some have already released pollen. I broke some others open and there was yellowish powder inside so im pretty sure they are hermies, What should i do? I smoked some of the fem bud and am on my hole so i dont feel like chopping them. They still have 4 weeks to go. All are hermy so i guess my clones will be too?

Hey guys, I know this might have been asked a few times, there's lots of discussions on ozstoners regarding this I know, so don't mean to sound like a broken record, just this stuff can be life or death for plants if you over do it... From what I know there are 3 different strengths of oxy-plus (H202) which are 17.5%, 35% and 50% and there are alot of different guides for sterilizing rock wool cubes for cuttings. Most of the cloning tutorials say 20 drops(2ml) of oxy-plus per Litre of water and PH adjusted to 6.0 with 1ml superthrive to make up pre-cutting soak water. Problem is, It doesn't say which strength of oxy-plus being used in any of the guides i've seen i…

While going through some of my gear, I came across 2 small white 60mil bottles labelled: "SUPER BLOOM" I recall getting them sent over from a hydro. shop in Sydney about 3 years ago. Has anyone heard of it or used it. The label goes on to say: QUOTE: SUPER BLOOM Flower Promotant Directions for use Super Bloom is a foliar spary. Mix 5 mil into 1 litre of water and spray the plants when they are at least 15cm high. Allow 14 days before a second spray. That is all it says. I can't remember whether I used it or not. If anyone has any info. about it, please let me know. I don't want to spray my lovely ladies if it is going to screw them up. Thanks guys. P.S. My…

G'day fellow stoners and growers. A mate snuck back some dutch seeds for me a few years ago, Big bud, jack herer, silver pearl ect. and I have had great success with them. Last year though I noticed a weird silvery necrosis of my shade leaves, but only on one side and alternating! e.g internode 3,5,7. I ended up chucking these mutants and a few hermies (as you do) so I don't know if I could have bloomed these things and if the flowering growth would have been affected. I assumed the problem was genetic NOT enviromental as other plants were healthy as and I know a thing or two about indoor cultivation, maybe those seeds are just too damn old. Thoughts anyone?

Hi guys and girls, firstly, want to say that this site is totally AWESOME!!! I've been a member for a while, and have been doing a lot of reading on this site from all the different forums, and also from a few good books, with the idea of starting a small grow--just a closet atm. I'm at the stage where I think I'm ready (YEY!), but am after some advice about which strains might be best to grow for smell. I'll be using a carbon filter for sure, but am keen for any extra advice you guys can give. Thanks heaps. H.

Hey ppl... I got a Question, i wanna go away for new years for 5-7 days and leave my plant without monitoring... what should i do before i leave to ensure my plant is still alive upon my return??? IE: my 3 plants are in a 1,4m X 1,1m box made of chipboard with a 100mm extractor fan and a 600w sodium lite + ballast (placed in a very moist basement below a restaurant) the floors are always moist and the area is generally cold and damp & there are no lights or general ventilation, but the room is pretty big [say 8m x 8m] is this good???

Hey Guys, Im hoping someone can help. I'm using coco as a medium in a basic run to waste set up, the pH level of the nute is set to 5.5-5.7 but the pH of the run off is a worrying 7.1-7.4! Its towards the end of veg and the leaves are displaying signs of element/s deficiency - (spots &/or speckled bleaching of the leaves and the older leaves are limp/tired looking) which is understandable if the pH at the root zone is so high. I thought flushing would resolve the problem but i flushed her yesterday and run off pH is still 7.2. I must admit that i have been lazy with my flushing because in my experience flushing hasn't been vital until their flowering when i increa…

Hey Ive been my clones have using coco to do my clones and for the most part it works very well but lately my clones have been showing mold or rot that starts on the outer leaf where it has been trimmed and in the tips of the clones. Just wondering if anyone else has had mold problems with their clones before and could i use an antifungal or something? thanks RR
