Just wanted to know if someone can tell me exactly when to add the PK for the week of flowering ? Is it when the buds have formed and they are just increasing weight / waiting for tricks to turn milky/Amber or is it during the stage of them developing .. I lost track of when I flipped them so can’t gonoff the feeding schedule .... my last crop I did in coco I used the pk all the way through (I’m a dickhead but I’m learning by myself till I joined this forum a few months ago and only got 2/3 grows under my belt ) In coco and canna nutes Coco A and B with cannazyme boost and rhizo to schedule !

Having never visited a hydro shop, just wondering what the go is in general with discussing what you are growing? Can you openly discuss what you want to grow or do you discuss growing tomatoes or what? Obviously coming from the point of view of someone who has never been in the shop before.

Hi all, pollinated a few girls yesterday but had a few showers of rain maybe 3 or 4 hours later. Would that have been long enough or will I have to hit them up again? Thanks

I've recently started a new grow, only my second actually. I've also got a new light, HiPar DE 315W CMH (double ended bulb, not two 315W bulbs) with control ballast (dimmable 50-100%). My only previous light was a HLG QB, so this is new tech for me. Tent is 60*120*210cm and has three seedlings in 4L organic soil pots. It's my understanding that CMH works well at 30-60cm over the canopy. But what advice would you fellas offer for seedlings? Plants have their cotyledon leaves and first set of proper leaves starting. They are a little tall and floppy, maybe from too long in the dark before potting them. The light was at the top and 50% dimmed, because I didn't wanna fry…

Hi all. I'm wanting to base my current/next grow on more resin/tric production for oil extraction but besides a few basic changes in nutrients and strains, is there anything else people can suggest that will help with the resin production? after any extra tips and tricks from growing medium to nutes or even light spectrum? How was your experience growing for hash/oil?

As some of you might know I'm a coco perlite grower. I'll be buying a bag of vermiculite this weekend and have perlite already (just standard coarse size not chunky). I'm not keen on watering all the time so would like advice as to how much vermiculite to mix with my perlite to get roughly the same water retention as straight coco. I've heard 70/30 perlite/vermiculite as common. Can I add more vermiculite? Is there such a thing as too much vermiculite in my mix? Cheers team. Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile app

Hey crew Another question - can keeping a growing plant in a small pot cause it to die ? I’ve googled this and saw mixed opinions that they either grow slower or stop growing . I’ve got a 8 plants vegging under a 315cmh in small pots (probably 1 litre each or slightly less) in this lot I have a power Africa, gelato , cream cheese and 3 supreme cbd Durban’s (nirvana strain) from Seedsman.. A previous post I put up a while ago I had some issues with 80% of seedsmans seeds I germinated but they re sent some and had no issues - except I was expecting issues again so I have more than I needed which is why I have these ones vegging in a small tent and haven’t upgraded the …

Hi all, im wondering , if im going to cross 2 seeds of the same strain , how far apart should the seeds be planted , ie 2-3 weeks I think it takes more time to produce pollen, on a CS treated plant, than the flower is at optimal time to receive pollen , so if I planted 1 seed , to be the male donor , how many weeks to plant the 2nd seed to be the female, would you suggest, planting , so the flowers are at full bloom to take pollen, at the same time the pollen is ready Nutter

Hey crew When I flip them and change to 12/12 I usually always change the globes from 600mh to hps straight away ... just wondering if there is any difference in leaving the MH bulbs on for the first week or two as the plant transitions or is the redder spectrum preferred ? Probably doesn’t matter I’m guessing but thought I’d ask Thanks !

G'day So I have a small grow tent 50 X 90 X 160 Small footprint but bit of height, most I could go. Looking to get a small fan, obviously need to get air in there, but I'm only looking for min to just change the air, I don't need carbon, no neighbours to worry about, and I don't want something noisy. Was thinking a better computer fan, taped onto duct, then use a short piece of pipe over the duct, to give it some rigidity to tighten the two vent drawcords over. Really want to try avoid a huge axial inline fan, as have space, noise, and financial limitations. Anyone?? Cheers
