Everyone knows that you must flush, but what is the best way. 1. Grab a bucket once a week and drown the ladies? 2. Run your reservoir with water only till empty? 3. Or to heck with it, I'll do when I remember? Cheers Gills

just took clones (more like popcorn in a bubble cloner ) of these three strains... Not really sure what any are, but have all given good smoke outdoors, the purple variety is particularly tasty (jaffa to white choc) and may be an orange/xxx. What do you recon my chances are of getting any healthy plants from these? I have seen clones this far gone work in the past, but it was my old man and I cant remember what he did to get em started.

Charlie Carp made from whole fish.

Does it sound to strong for indoor soil grow. Never ever used any ferts when I was growing outdoors except for blood & bone when preping the veg garden. Not finished my grow bin yet and I will probably leave it until I have my Belladona seeds sitting on my fridge for a month. When I ge…

Hi all, hope you're all well mellow. I am! As I've mentioned elswhere, i have a friend who lives in a battery-hen estate, in a house the size of a matchbox- - let's call him Ralph. (In this country you never know whose looking in - guess it's paranoia but anyway - ) He wanted me to put up some pics of his setup, but as I don't have a camera I've done some diagrams. After thouroughly absorbing so much stuff on this site (he's had to dump a large chunk of previous memories - mostly school stuff) this is the frankenstein setup he's created. He hopes to put a screen in and maximise yield whils keeping the whole setup as low as poss - Max 0.9m There are some imp…

Hi, Believe it or not, I've only been using Coco media for about a couple of months. Before that I'd always used vermeculite and or perlite. I've found this stuff (coco) to be quite outstanding as far as growth is concerned and was wondering how it would work with clones instead of rockwool. Has anyone here used coco to strike roots in clones and are there any caveats or even hints on using this media ?

Mystery seeds, arent they fun. Friend of mine gave me a few seeds that he found in a dresser of his at his moms house that he had forgotten about. Germinated both seeds in Rockwool. The seedlings were approximately the same size when they were finally potted on 4/21 and 4/24. Grown since then nestled between some of my white widows under 1000w mh continous, im not running anything exotic, room is usually 78-81f, and right about 30-31% humidity, normal soil mixture, little perlite, little potting soil, worm stuff, nothing major Aaren just took off. The growth on right plant, Bailey, is about what I expected, Aaren, on the other hand has me a little excited. The …

Hi everyone, At the moment I'm using Sensi Bloom A+B Budblood (first week) Advanced Carbo and next week I'll used Advanced nutrients big Bud. She's getting pretty big and I have only 1/2 a metre now to play with Do I need to add additional nutrients to pause the growth of the plans so the plant can just concentrate on budding? Thanks in advance

Ok Im new hereso Hello everyone and hope you had a great Easter. Now I know this has probably been done to death but I want to garner as much info from the knowledgeable as possible so I thought I would start a new thread. Here goes.When preparing the hole how big do I have to make it?I know this sounds like a silly question but I have read on other sites people saying to make it 1 cubic metre and that sounds like a little excessive. Anyhow I have bought a good potting mix and some dynamic lifter,will get some perlite and water crystals. How much water crystals do I need?I know you can buy 500g buckets with a slow release fert from the hardware store.Is this enough for on…

ok, so i want to grow indoors this year for the first time. only problem is i have parents who will kick my ass if they find out. so what would be a good idea to put it in? also i have a lamp but it probably wont work. what kind of lighting would work best for, like, 1 or 2 plants? i have a couple of good seeds and i can easily germinate them. got any tips or anything that would be useful to me? as i said this is FIRST time growing. i also started about 3 plants outdoors about 1 week ago, the problem is i cant tell if they are weed sprouts or just a weed in general. what are some signs of knowing what it is. its about 3 cm tall and has a purple stem with little white fu…
