Hi All, abc123 reporting.. but personal issues aside.. i have an interesting question Example: Say we have a nice Big Bitch.. good few flower sites.. she goes into flower and is hanging for a root (some sex).. now out of no where Mr God Comes along and chucks a few polen sacked loaded plastic bags over all her flowers.. Now heres the twist.. Each of those Polen Filled Bags come from Totally Differant Strains.. What would be the results of the Off Spring..??? Say the Female Was uhmm Skunk.. and one of the Bottom Pollen Filled Bags was BlueBerry.. and say the a Middle Branch was Haze.. and say one of the Top branches was White Widow.. Are the Results the Obvious…

Hi there......i got 2 plants growing in pots outside ( bubbleberry variety ) One has quite thick buds, but the other is quite spindly....... I was reading that during flowering u should use a fert high in (P) and (K) I have been using thrive general fert and this is measured at N12 P3 K6 so whats a good fert for flowering........something i can get at bunnings or a nursery ......... also what should the N P K be for flowering stage ? P.S Im not interested in any expensive hydro ferts from a hydro shop......i just want something from the nursery Thanks jason

Well my first batch of seeds have cracked and they are now nestled in their rockwool cubes about to go under the 600W HPS - can anyone offer some advice on the distance I should place the light away from them? Cabinet is 1x1x2.4 by the way - exhaust system is installed...it was a ripe bitch of a job but works real well. Jimbo

Hey I was just wondering what EC yous mix your Flores to? I thought following the instructions on the bottle would be the best way to mix the nutes but have recently been advised that I should lower my EC to about 1.4- 1.5? I have recently started flowering my plants and thought I'd give er a go at the low EC... I can already notice a little 'leaf burn' so am going to make up a slightly stronger solution of about 1.9 EC. I'm growing in clay balls, nearly a week into flower... Just Curios, Cheers

Hey there, just dragging out the bits and peices of equipment I have been sensible enough to hang onto, and I'm just wondering how to check if my truncheon is still ok? I always rinsed it religously when I used it, I took the batteries out when I stored it, and just now cleaned the sensors the way i read someone mention to do so in a thread the other day. I.e. gently with some creame cleanser. I havea roll of litmus tape, so I can check my PH meter against that , but what about the truncheon? i just tested some tap water and it was about 200, but I guess that's a variable, but sounds familair. Imean I'd just buy another one, but I'm dreadfully broke and wil lhave to g…

i'm new to indoor growing & nutes in general. i have canna vega a+b for the veg stage of my indoor grow. it says to mix equal amounts of a+b @ (ie)2-3ml per litre. my question is, if (for example) it says "equal amounts of A+B @ 1ml per litre", is that 500mgA+500mgB or 1mlA+1mlB ? i ask this coz i thought the total of A+B should equal the required 'ml per litre' but it seems that i can't get my EC high enough using this method. i think i may be using only half the nutes i should have been. i hope this post makes sense, it seemed to make more sense in my head.

I've been living watching over my shoulder for a couple years as the cops were put onto me by a "mate" who lost his mind. i've moved house a few months back and want to start growing again, but have sold all the old system. I want to build what seems to most frequently be called a "Dutch pot" system. It all seems very straight forward, just got one or two questions if anyone can help it might save me some strife and a few bux. I need to drill holes for all the grommett connections. Can anyone tell me what size hole I need to drill, to allow the appropraite grommets to fit into them, for a good water tight fit for 17 and 13 mm pipes? The bloody hole saw are 20 bux e…
