General Cultivation Q&A

Does anyone ever have a problem getting their PH down. I bought advanced nutrients PH down and its supposed to be very concentrated. The guy told me to add just a few drops really to bring it down. My PH is at 7 atm, and ive added probably 20 drops and it has hardly gone down. Anyone got any advice for me? Or should i just keep adding the acid. Thanks

Hey all Latest plants are getting close to finishing, 8 weeks yesterday, and have a wee q's what timespan am i looking at from when the trichs are cloudy/clear to the time when they are cloudy/brownish? Is cloudy/brownish what we want? That is the best overall body/head stone yeah? I have been feeding them with nothing but PH adj water for 10 days now in cocopeat and have just gone from 100% clear to 50/50 clear/cloudy. Did i stop giving them nutrient to early? I think so now Thanks peeps

Any body got any info as my mate was talkin about it.....Is he for real or what?? Do u need a type of strain???

I am going to set up a wardrobe grow from seed, however I need to get the show on the road as quick as possible. I am wondering what the best technique would be to start from seed, determine sex and then either remove the males and hermies and scrog the females, or maybe take a few clones from every plant and have them in veg while I turn back the main light to flower, determine which will be males and then transfer all the females into the wardrobe and gp from there. I was wondering if its possible to just flower plants for long enough to determine sex, then return back to veg for a while tio scrog em, than flower again? Whats the earliest I can start a strain such as ku…

Why is outdoor smoko always better than indoor?

Tricomes are turning milky, only 4 days to go till harvest , Hydroponics system has reduced to 700ppm for last 10 days and will flush fresh water to the end. When is the best time of day or night to pick them? Thanks in advance, Buddy.g

Hey... Roughly... How much do you reckon your plants grow from vegging them to well into the flowering stage? What I mean is, you reckon they double in size, triple etc? Just trying to work out if I should let 'em keep on growing a little longer or turn them this weekend? I'm running out of screen, but if need be, I could set up another... All the tips are starting to head straight up now. There are shitloads. Being only my second grow, I don't really know what to expect from this lot... Any suggestions, Cheers 'snake

A while ago some talk was being made on making clones using water bublers. Along the way someone asked how the rooted clones were removed from the bubbler without damaging the roots. One way was shown using thin styrafoam, and I thought it might be worth showing this way too. I realise most everyone's done this, but thought it might be of value to anyone not having done it before. I was shown how to do this withthe idea of keeping the plant stem out of the water body itself, and just close enough that tghe exploding bubbles wet the stem, so as to help beat any chance of rot. But then recently I was told it doesn't matter a rat's arse, and they strike so quick I have n…

I spent a lot of time looking into growing Lowryder before finally taking the plunge. To be honest I had heard so much negative press about them, I was having a hard time convincing myself that the price was worthy for a strain most people thought only a novelty plant as opposed to a serious indoor proposition. I was speaking with the guy who runs Seedsman seeds in the UK, and he offered me a pack of Lowryder 2 free of charge. The new Lowryder which has been crossed with a Brazilian strain (Santa Maria) in a bid to improve taste and stone! I said "yes" and "thanks" all in the same breath and while I waited for them to arrive I started to do some research online. I…
