3 or 4 weeks ago I had a few left over cuts from a CS mother and a RM/MM plant I got.. anyhow I gave them to the Mrs and said try something different with them.. so she dips them in rooting gel and puts them directly into Searles premium potting mix and just puts them in the garden outside..waters them every 2nd day.. no nutes... this is the results.. actually she was more sucessful than me with my Green house and heat mat.. just shows that what works for some may not work for others.. its always good to try different ways..

I have 2 strains going at one time, and one is done, the other needs several weeks. (I cant believe how different they were, see grow diary for pics). But im thinking of not flushing the one strain that is done due to the fact that its gonna be really hard for me to do a flush of half, and give the others the nutes they need at a vital time that they need it! So is this a bad idea, does it make the bud all chemically? i mean that bud grows up on the chems, how much could a 3 day flush before harvest do. Any opinions are appreciated.

My reservoir is made from a 120 litre plastic drum from which a submersible pond pump connected to a digital timer runs the nutrient mix around the grow room to feed the 4 litre per hour drippers, I use one dripper per plant. The plants are in self watering pots and and the timing of the watering system is set to keep the reservoirs of the pots topped up without overflowing them too much. I use a twin outlet air pump running 2 air stones to keep the water well aerated and the nutrients nicely mixed. The only occasions I have for dumping the reservoir are if there is something drastically wrong with the nutrient mix, when it's time to switch to flowering or at flush time…

just let me say long time lurker and this should have been my first post..don't know about the others. Sorry for the hassles but any info will be greatly appreciated. My sister and I are wanting to grow a plant outside (first grow) and was just hoping for info and tips on things such as a good beginners strain and who you would personally recommend to order seeds from etc. Also, I was wondering if there's a FAQ or something similar for an outdoor grow, or would it not differ much from an indoor one? Just for things like nutrients and stuff like that. Again sorry for the noobiness and all help is appreciated.

how ya goin guys just needed to ask whether using DM-gold A-B and Advanced nutrient -revive would be good idea to use in the same tank towards the end of the flowering, the ultimate goal being added greenness and and the ability to regrow. the added nitrogen, calcium and iron wouldn't be to much extra with the DM-GOLD A-B would it? am i on the right track with this ? thanks guys.

Has anyone used these nutrients before? I scored a nice deal on these, and they are all from simple grow: 5L - Podtron Invincible Grow (Parts A/lol 5L - Podtron Invincible Flower (Parts A/:D Whopper Bud (I don't know how much it is, but its in a medium sized white bottle) Simple Grow Root 79 (I'd estimate it at being 1L) I wanted to know if anyone has used these before? And if it was good, bad or indifferent? The side really doesn't give me much information other than it is suitable for lettuce and tomatos and that it has a number of ingredients. Thank you!

For a closet grow using a drip feeder for veg and a ebb-n-flow for flowers, what dutch master nutrients would be right? What would you recommend? At the moment I am looking at the: 1ltr Advanced grow 20$ shipped 1ltr Advanced flower 20$ shipped APS for clone Probably about 20$ shipped dutch master clone fast 10$ shipped or 1ltr Sensi bloom $22.50 shipped 1ltr sensi grow $22.50 shipped APS for clone Probably about 20$ shipped dutch master clone fast 10$ shipped So it really comes down to, is the sensi better than the dutch master? Also why is the dutch master super bud discontinued? thanks!

hey people i have about 40 seeds sprouted a week ago under a 400w. i sprouted the plants under a 12/12 cycle, because if i had them under 18/6 when i put them outdoors they would start to flower wouldnt they? btw i live down in victoria. the plan is to put 5 or so sprouted seeds outdoor, take 20 or so clones (in a few weeks), when they have rooted put 10 of thoes clones outdoors and keep the rest indoor under lights.
