G'day, I think I have found out a way to lower the EC of your tap water if it is bad. Instead of having the tap blasting water out at high pressure, simply only turn the tap a little so the water runs out very slowly. Doing this over the last couple of days, I have found the EC of my tap water has dropped from 0.8 to 0.4. I assume this is because using the tap at high pressure will also blast out a lot of crap that is built up on the inside of the pipes. The downside is it will take a lot longer to get your water or fill your containers etc. But try it and see if it works for you...

hey. I've been planning my first grow for quite a while now... and have basically planned everything... just want to run ideas past the forum before doing anything..... I'll start with the strange parts first.... first up. I'd like to grow a pair of cannabis plants (not sure on strain yet) and one papaver somniferium.. Strains I've considered so far are: Marley's Colley Shiva Skunk Chronic Any suggestions? The main reason for this post is to ask the following questions: I've read that poppies and cannabis require similar conditions, will they be able grow together in the same heat, lighting and nute conditions? Which strains are recommended and where can…

Hello everyone I am new here and would like to say Hello to everyone here on this site. I am going to begin growing ice next week . I am going to plant 5 seeds and I will be using a 250 watt Metal Halide light for veg. and then I might purchase a 250 watt HPS light for flowering. I know what to do for basically everything germinating,harvesting, etc but I am a little confused about flowering . So I have a few questions and it would be greatly appreciated if you help me out. 1)When is the earliest I will be able to put my plants into flowering if I have my light on 19/5 during veg.? 2)Is it worth buying a HPS lamp for the flowering period instead of still using the 250…

Hello educated ones! After suffering pain due to lack of weed for medicinal and recreational use, I've decided I might like to try growing my own. A friend has some seeds, I have no idea what strain they are tho... I have read loads of stuff on this board and am just more confused than before! -I seriously only need to grow one plant at any one time for my own use. -Needs to be grown indoors as neighbours can see over the fence from any angle! I have a double door inbuilt wardrobe that could be used. -I am home everyday and am happy to water and tend to the baby as needed -Want the most simple, cost effective way of setting up/growing one indoor plant..…

Stoney & I were comparing notes the other day and we both noted we've had some batches with badly cooked fan leaves by the end of flowering. Week 8, room temp 24-26C, 40-50% RH, Canna Flores nutes @ 1400ppm, pH 5.5-5.8. Lights are 1000W HPS. Bud weight development is ordinary but super dense, rock-hard, crystally buds anyway. All other conds right- what's wrong? Stoney noted he also uses Canna nutes. A bad batch of Canna for both of us? Any other Canna users noted this? Thanks.

I might need to adjust ph levels in my soil,im not sure.Heres the deal - The pic has 4 pots in it but i only have 1 seedling in one of the purple pots and one in the big brown pot(seedlings are only 13 days old).I have a soil ph tester with the probes on it from bunnings that says the ph in the brown pot is in between 6.0 and 7.0,so about 6.5.In the small purple pot its ph is about 7.1. I was under the impression that cannabis like neutral ph of 7.0ph but have read also that they like 6.0 to 6.5ph.So which is it? In the pic the 250watt light is really close but have moved it way up high now.Which is the best way to adjust the ph levels in my situation?Do i use fine dolomi…
