Hi all, Complete novice please be kind. I’m a long time chronic arthritis and MS sufferer. Been taking prescription opioids for years. A mate gave me a few joints of Afghani Kush and I was in tears as to the relief it gave me. Now thinking of growing a couple of plants in garage but honestly have next to no $ to spend due to raising 2 kids on disability Pension so how can I do it super cheap? Outdoors is not possible. Have 1 window that gets 2-3 hrs direct sunlights per day. Thanks in advance ✌️

Need some advice. My first grow in 80x80x160cm 2x quantum boards 240w My seedlings are about 2 weeks old and they seem to grow very slow. My temperature in tent is around 26-30c but my humidity is very low at around 29-30% Since the exhaust opening in tent was 6" I got 6" fan that seems to be too powerfull for the tent size.i run it 30min every hour. How important is too keep humidity around 60% for seedlings? Would that explain slow growth? Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile app

Hi all, I have bought seeds online as we all do. But never shopped for gear online. I have been of the opinion that it is bit risky ordering hydroponic gear to your home. Do many of you shop online and if you do what companies do you order from and are the safe and discrete

What sort of, or model humidifiers everyone using. I've been just keeping humidity up with a wet sponge in there, but moving to a bigger tent (1.2 X 1.2) figured I should get myself a humidifier. Was expecting to be able to set a level n have it maintain, but not much on eBay capable of that. Biggest tank was 6ltr What's your setup? Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile app

Hey guys! I've been away for a yonk and a half visiting Japan and so had to stop growing the goods for that period. I'm back in the game though and had a simple and possibly pointless question; When do you say, "Alright I've got too many colas/growth tips coming up, I think I'll cut some off." I count 20 decent tips on my plant with a few not quite as tall. Any advice for a budding horticulturalist?

Hey guys, I want to start a new grow with a coco / perlite (75% / 25%) mix, and am after some advice regarding nutrients. I don't really want to fuck around with bottled nutes and have seen some cool stuff being done with dry amendments, so i'm keen to try that out. Has anyone had any experience with the premixed nutrient kits from organic gardening solutions? https://www.organicgardeningsolutions.com.au The grow will be a single plant in the same pot start to finish (probably 5L) so I'm hoping to figure out a mix to go along with the coco + perlite combo to start with, and then one/multiple mixes I can add in as I progress through veg/bloom. I know very little …

Hey crew ! I usually trim off a lot of leaves before flipping lights or within the first few weeks but what’s people opinions on defoliation during late flower ? Does it help to swell buds with more access to light or do you think it only helps the more shaded /popcorn buds .? Second question I’ve heard fan leaves act like solar panels to help grow , is that more relevant in vegging stage and should all stay on or is it okay towards the end of flower to trim them to help fatten up popcorn buds that they are shading and leave sugar leaves on ? Thanks

Hey crew So It’s my first attempt at scrogging,! I’ve only ever done the standard way with some lollipopping but always ended with a nice cola and smaller to popcorn buds down low on the plant so thought I’d try this way after some reading and research Brief description - 600w hps, 1.5mx1.5mx2m tent , in coco , drain to waste Well.... I think I didn’t do it right , I installed the screen after 4 weeks of veg and some light lst to spread them just above it and let it grow about another week and flipped them - now I’ve been spreading them under the net and popping the pre flowers up through , seems to be doing okay but then I read I should have popped them up in veg and…

So maybe some of you have seen my dungeon space already in my grow diaries. I'm considering another 600w light to grow 4 more plants under. The area is not very easy to access so I don't want to be climbing around to get to it so often. That means maybe only weekly watering and prefer no mixing of nutes. I'm OK with bunnings soil and know that's not ideal. So far I'm thinking 20L hempys with hydroton in the res and the soil up top. I figure the soil retains the water well and contains most of what the plant needs in terms of nutes. The hempy res I might make a bit taller, up from 2 inches to 3 inches so it holds more water and wicks it up into the soil. Hopefully weekly w…

Is tucking a thing? Topped on Monday and then tucked the new growth under the fan leaves to give new growth light and hopefully encourage growth in the new nodes coming out. Total area still collecting same light. LSD and Liberty Haze from Seedsman. Also have Kush and Cookies for CBD and Jack Herer as freebie. Cheers Modaf
