General Cultivation Q&A

I've just extended my little grow cupboard from just over 1meter to 1.6meters as they got too tall! I should have turned them earlier to 12/12 but anyway Ive had them on 12/12 for a few days now after giving them 48 hours of dark to kick start the flowering. After the 48 hour dark peroid I have 2 confirmed females and one def male.Is this normal to show sex so soon?? still waiting on the other 3 to show sex... Can I do this again (48hours of dark) to further minimize the stretch and encourage a more rapid on set of flowering?or could this cause them to chuck a hermie ? Any advice be great thanks John

hey people my mate grew this small plant last season, turned hermi, so he kept it and got 1000's of seeds. i planted about 20, and they all showed traits of hermi when i put them from indoor to outdoor.. now ive only just relised this again but i have about 50 3" seedlings outside which are all of the same seed. will they all be hermi's ? ive never incounted this problem before, my mate has now started about 7 this season, and all have turned hermi.. is their anyway of switching them to females ? i do have this spray that kills the male pollen and add's extra P;K any idea ?? cheers

i had three hermaphrodites last season and they gave a few seeds and ive planted a few for this season n was wondering if the seeds from the hermaphrodite pollinated itself would be predominantly hermi or female or what? would they be feminised?

hey just wondering how long marijuana will stay in my systen.. aka for a drug test??

hey folks, i got 8 clones off a mate about 6 weeks ago, put them outdoors, they started to bud, then had to put them back indoors under 24hr light. they have started to stretch out of the buds in about the last week, but now all the new kind of growth is very retarded.. for eg, 3 finger leaves where the middle one is huge and a barely noticeable other 2 little leaves. And many other retarded 1 finger leaves. And their was one clone from the get go which was very retarded, curved and wavey big 1 finger leaves. any help ?

Has anyone used this ? If so , how did you use it and what did you think of it ? Cheers CG

I've heard and read this quite a few times. Is it true or BS? Do you give your plants a bit of a thrashing? and if so, is there any particular technique or time that's best? thanks

I need to hide my plants guys... what happens if they have about 48 hours of darkness... Will they die?

Hey all, im a new member here however was an old OG'er a while ago. got a question for ya, would it be possible to run 2 400w hps or 1 1000w hps with a couple of deep cycle batteries and a power inverter? the reason i ask is because i have some land in a very low populated area to grow on but its winter time and cant do solar or outside. i was wondering if i could simply run the HPS off of the deep cycle batteries, then recharge the battereis at night when im home from work, getting them ready for the next day. thanks all. (cant be on the power grid for this one because the lot doesnt have power, only a structure.)
