Forgot I started to germ a handful of babies two days ago - remembering I raced outside to make up a quick mix of potting mix/blood bone/dolomite/epsoms and accidentally threw in a cup and half of potash instead of dolomite lime. Is potash in the soil going to wreck havoc on the seedlings or suddenly start to burn the shit out of them a week from now?

Here a few of my Bonsai Moms wondering if anyone else keeps them. I like to think of them as little pieces of art. Trouble Maker B-52 Big Buddha Cheese Kali Mist (*The Kali-mist seems to have the most trouble with compact growth it jut wants to stretch and stretch) All these with the exception of the Kali-Mist were planted last March. I can cut about 10 clones off every three weeks. pot is a 25oz cup and average about 8'' - 12'' tall including the pot. I have to cut the roots once in the past 7 months but now there settling in quite nice and shouldn't need to be done for another year.

Well guys I am two weeks into flowering off of three seeds that I got from a good friend. This all started as a newbie playing around and now I'm really going at it hard. Today however something very unexpected happened. All of the plants began to truly bring out the sex in them but to my great surprise all three have turned out to be ladies. I can't tell you the joy I am feeling after hitting it big like this. I know this is a relatively worthless topic but I just had to get the news out. Stay tuned for a grow diary with pictures and much more. Happy growing

In my limited growing experience I have only ever allowed seedlings to go a few weeks before paranoia (who said that?) gets the better of me and everything gets pulled. Several years ago I got about twenty seeds going from some very nice flowers and one(1) seed came up tricotyledon. Water leaves came up tri then first real leaves tri and so on. Is this common? I have only ever seen it once and I am starting to kick myself that I let it go.

Can someone help me with a link to some matrerial detailing state laws (QLD) or any law regarding cultivation. How many plants, seeds, quantities of dried product and the related charges.

will be making a mix to suit an outdoor grow that will only be able to be visited every week or two so water is a huge factor. my basic materials are as follows compost peat moss vermiculite sand water storage crystals RSW water storage bags rooster booster fertilser what do you think these ingredients and any suggestions on what ratio? i have read a few bad things about vermiculite drying out the roots? i thought it would retain water and aerate the soil? what is the difference between perlite and vermiculite?

Hi ladies and gents, I had a question from my wife earler about companion plants and if mj has any? Shes right into permaculture - for people not sure what that is, its a type of organic gardening where everything works together with very little matenence for the good of the garden. She was saying all plants should have a companion plant that helps one another grow. Were planning our garden and it just needs the final touch, so my question is; does everyones fav herb have a companion plant? Cheers in advance guys and girls

The other day at the Hydro shop I picked up a copy of Maximum Yield Australia, a Indoor Gardening Magazine for the vegie growers! Flicking through it I got to page 8 and saw a write up / advert on Lab Quality Tissue Culture At Home on how to grow mother jars not mother plants!! Has anyone here ever experimented with tissue culture? I found the following site but the down side is the cost of the Super Starts kit!! www.planttc.com This looks like something I might give a go if I can source all of the gear! Let me know your thoughts. Cheers Canaman

this is my first grow and i read up as much as i could before starting but at 4 weeks my plant looks way small. it's growing in a cupboard which has been sitting around 30C and 30% humidity. i've just got myself a humidifier so i'm hoping this will lower the temp to 25C and raise the humidity as far as it will go. the soil is a mix of perlite and tomato growing soil with no ferts. i have given it 1 drink of 1/4 strength Ionic nutes. i've only been watering about 100ml every 2nd day but since i lost of of my 2 babies i've started giving 300ml every 2 days. is this too much or too little? it's in an 8L pot. my 400HPS with cool tube sits about 50cm from the plant. …

got a couple nearly ready outside does any one know if you could chop the stem at the base and stick the plant in a vase or bucket of water for a week as you do cut flowers and let it use up the remaining starches/nutrients etc as it sucks up the water to survive? anyone tried this?
