Hey guys. This is my first time here, and I wanted to ask something. My friend is a fisherman and he kills eels, chop them up and put it in the bottom of his pot because he says it fertilises his plants. Would this be a source of nitrogen considering the fertiliser Blood and Bone, has nitrogen from "bone and flesh"? Just an interesting alternative that I would be keen to try as long as it didnt kill the plants. Also, the plants are 3 weeks old and the stems are still kinda week and some of them still slightly bend over, is this a nutrient deficiency or what? The soil is crappy grade soil, mixed with Blood and Bone, and then some Miracle-Gro. Thanks guys.

I was over at a mates place a few months ago, and he was showing me his nice grow shed. He had some really large gas type bottles bottles, that I think he said contained co2 or somethinf like that. What was he going on about, and how do they make the plants grow better. He's packed up now and moved north so I can't ask him.

I just got a new product today, called gel 2 root. I got it from a catalog here, but it's a UK product by a company called SupaPlants. The label says: No hurry to pot on, holds plants until you're ready. no need to water or feed. See roots growing. Clean, peat free and safe to use. It's a clear gel that you put in any clean container use 40 ml per cutting min. Add a humidity dome, and watch 'em strike roots. I'm going to make sure to put one in a glass and take pix to post so everyone can see. I'm also going to fill my aerocloner to see which way works fastest and easiest.

Sup everyone. It's been awhile since I've posted, so let me inform you that my bubblegum plants are doing tremendously. I've got some shitty pictures that I'll post as soon as I can send them to my email, but to give you an idea of how well they're doing, they've grown to about 18" in height (~45cm for you Aussies), have huge leaves, and are very bushy. Not too tall, but leaves EVERYWHERE. I noticed a few days ago that they both had developed flowers at their tops without my involvement whatsoever. I figured it was as good a time as any to start cutting back light hours. I've been taking an hour off the timer every day for two days now, so they're at 14 hours right now. T…

Im about to order from EDIT, apparently they have fixed their shit up, and I like the idea of tracking my order, so I'll place an order with them to a fake PO box. Is Top 44 any good?

Ive been growing a couple of plants under a 400w hps and they are nearing the end of the bud cycle. The buds are less impressive than i had hoped due mainly to heat and fertilization issues. I'm looking to try a little experiment and im wondering if anyone here has tried this. I saw on a growing vid that a way to increase yield is to turn the lights back up to 15 hours in the last 2 weeks of budding. However my idea is to move the plants outdoors where we are currently getting around 15 hours of light. Perhaps this could solve some heat and airflow issues as well. Would this do the plants harm or could this actually work?
