General Cultivation Q&A

as a few people know i aint cloned in a long time around 2000-2001 with success so ive just jumped into the deep end and took 19 clones 3 days ago one clone has already wilted and died the rest are perked up and looking nice but i wanted to find out if anyone else is using this APS clone food from DM ive read it keeps the clones growing as if they have roots is this bull shit or fact? 5L bottles are very cheap so if it does work and others reccomend it i might give it ago so let me know who out there is using it or a simular product

hey all, at the shop the other day the kind proprieter threw in some ZYME it says contains 32 different forms of enzym. directions:1/2 gram to 50 ltr of nutes.. i didnt catch the spiel from him but i do remember him saying its best used only for flushing.. is or has anyone used this product and can give me the mail on it.. is it just another additive?? something to complicate things ??? or is it a sort of thing u need in system? thanks guys i dont know where id be without youse tkae care and peace out s

hey peeps, i notice when i add the rhizo to the nute mix the PH blows out (similar to silicamajic) i add my silica 1st before my nutes and any other additives then bring the PH back down to the 6s to add nutes ???? should i be adding the rhizotonic at this stage b4 the nutes and bring the ph back??? then add my nutes, fulvic acid, vit b,and hygrozyme??? am using rhizotonic at 4ml per litre thanks peeps take care s

I recently got into a convo with someone regarding dried bud weight versus initial wet weight. My assumption was that you lose 50-60 percent of the weight of the bud going from wet to dry using superbud and probably 60-70 percent without an additive like SB. So I set up a little experiment and got some results which amazed me...and I was waaaaaaaaaay off base.... I weighed up my fully manicured buds wet and then fully dry and my loss in weight was 78%...and these buds were rock solid heavy little suckers not fluffy at all.... I hear people all the time saying (inlcuding myself previously) that you will lose 50-60 percent of your crop...but I have to say this is b…

Went shopping today and got talking to the Hydro guy. I asked him about Bonza Bud which is a hormone to make plants stockier. I think you only use that during the flowering period. I didn't want to buy it becuase I didn't want him to know my plants are close to flowering. I told him I'm growing Chillis and I don't think Chillis would be at a flower stage so soon. So instead I walked out the door with some Nitrozym. He gave me free of charge a 250ml bottle. I don't have the original bottle to read. He told me to use this during veg. Can I use it during flowering?.

I got a problem with a small room that is driving me nuts , good plants show real pale yellow new growth within a couple of days of going in , trust me when I say its not the nutrient or PH and the water supply is the same as another room that is powering without a problem . The only thing I can think of is the plastic nutrient tank which is one of those 200 ltr black bunnings tanks , Im going to empty it tomorrow and throw a liner in it , which will fix it if thats the problem . Have any of you guys ever had problems because of Plastic Phytotoxicty caused by a plastic tank ? Rod

hi i have a batch of nulife powergo nutes (for veg). i got them cheap and i have a feeling there 'used by'. if this possible? they dont have a use by date on them, but the last few crops ive used them the plants show disctinct signs of micronutrient deficiencies late in the veg stage when they are transferred into an intense light environment. i thought the problem was something else but i have narrowed it down to the nutes as since i have changed to a lesser known brand the problem is no longer there. i know nulife is supposed to be a reputable brand so i dont think that there nutes would lack micronutrients so the only thing i can suggest is that the nutes are 'o…

I posted this in another thread but thought it needed its own , quite informative and covers many types of PGR ! http://www.ext.vt.edu/pubs/greenhouse/430-102/430-102.html Rod
