General Cultivation Q&A

Is this girl super sensitive to nutrients? She's getting the same as the White Rhino and the others, but she is just...different. As a seedling rather than make a second set of true leaves she branched into 2 main stems like a "Y". Still with 2 i've fimmed her 3 x. She is still by comparison spindly,although that's the way of this plant. She doesn't clone easily, taking longer and sometimes just going limp. Now, I have given a foliar feed to all consisting of Kelp, and some calcium added. Only this Bubblegum girl is looking "ashy" if that makes sense. I may have to take a pic. Anyone grow this strain?

I was advised that they used Advanced Nutrients "sweet leaf and sometimes final phase. And it didn’t matter what strain it was they just added the correct amount into the reservoir which assists in the flushing of accumulated nutrients in flowers and leaves. In various herb crops where taste and texture is important, removing the chemical residue giving a better sweet taste. I read up on s…

Im a first time grower, i need trimming tips, how to make my plant real thick

Hey Yous, I have seen the ads for international seedbanks in Europe & Canada here on the site, and was wondering what the odds are that such a package would make it through Aussie Customs. In my former life as an American I ordered from Canada several times and had no problem. But then again, I've noticed that here in Oz the Customs Service actually does their job. In the US they make a lot of noise, but generally rely on tough sentences as a deterrent instead of hiring additional customs personnel which would mean taxes - and Americans don't like taxes. I'm not kidding. On at least 2 separate occasions during Uni in the American Heartland, I imported cases of…

Hi, I am currently growing G'UNK and my 2 runs to date have a funny/dirty taste to it. I am wondering if the nute's i'm using could be a contributing factor? I am using a generic brand from my local shop. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. RR

hello friends i am going to be starting a grow for the aussie season in a few weeks and am searching for a nice simple soil mix to get me along. I have heard that Fox Farm Ocean Forest Organic Potting Soil is a good choice but am not too sure if we are able to get that in Australia. So does anybody know if you can purchase this here, if not anybody got some nice recommendations? Also if you have any suggestions as to what to add to these potting mixes. Or any suggestions on using a different soil for the seedlings or veg stage. I am going to be starting them off inside under lights for a few weeks than moving them out into the woods in the ground. So any suggestions would…
