General Cultivation Q&A

hey how much superthrive do you use ? i have a brand new bottle, except the label is faded a little & i cant read any instructions. does anyone know what ml of superthrive i should be feeding my plants ? my plants are 20-30cm tall now if that helps at all ? thanks

hey, i'm pretty sure of the sex of these three plants, but just wanted some confirmation without showing anyone my grow (i'm sure you understand;)). I know the strain cant be determined just by looking, but any comments on whether they are sativa/indica/hybrid would be greatly appreciated!! this is my VERY first grow, so please go easy on me p.s. sorry if the pics aren't too great, its my first go at that too PLANT 1: (click for larger pictures) http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y236/nugget23/th_Picture010LargeMedium.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y236/nugget23/th_Picture009LargeMedium.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y236/nugget23/th_264ec47…

Ive had to reveg my plant because I couldnt clone off it before I turned it. ( there are reasons ). The sun has been shining 24/0 for the last week and a half. Im getting new growth coming from the tips of the buds I left on the plant. At the moment the new growth is abount 4 cm long, most with 1 node some with 2 nodes allready. There are probably about 40 points of new growth. Too early to take them as clones? I was thinking of taking at least 5 cuttings tomorrow, I figure that if they dont work out, there are plenty of others I can take later. I was going to try and "water" clone them. Your thoughts please.

hey stoners is there any sort of products out there that i can give my plants to prevent them from getting mold.any info would be good.

Ok i have about 8 plants im growing and i always have trouble getting seeds so i thought. When my plants start to flower and i take out the males could i keep one growing about 100m away then when its flowers start to have resin on them get a swab and then take it to the female plant and rub it on a few flowers? then kill the male plant. Would this just make the one or two buds seed or the whole plant and plants around it? even if it is one plant that seeds im not to worried just dont want al of them to seed. thank you

Any growers out there in Australia that use superthrive? I'm sure if you use this product then you probably have used it for years...? Just want to know if you do use superthrive what is your prefered method of distribution. Do you use it mainly as a foliar spray or do you add it to nutrient reservoir or both? And do you use it througout the whole life cycle of the plant or only when the plants are stressed or 'sickly' looking?

Hi all it seems something has possibly stunt the growth of a number of my plants. I started my plants from seeds 3 and a half weeks ago and now have 3 very good plants now which are going well and would be 15-20 odd centimetres tall but the rest which were planted at the same time are dismal to say the least. They are only about 5cm tall and have been that way for 2 weeks I'd say. I also have a couple more plants that were planted a week later and are also stuck at 5 cm. I'm growing outdoors in a greenhouse/hothouse (more information about my grow can be found through the link in my signature) When packing some of the pots with soil I packed some more compact than …

Alright. Well, I'm still in the stages of planning my first grow. I won't be sure of what I'm growing until I have the seeds in my hands, but they are on their way, or so I've been led to believe But I should have Bubblegun and M60 here soon. I am not averse to buying more beans if it really will make a difference. I was just looking for some kind of advice on my plan and answers to some probably retarded questions. I don't know anyone who grows and you guys are the only people I can ask. Here are the definates: - Definately no more than two plants, probably only one. - Will be in soil (criminal charges in WA for hydro). - The ceiling will be roughly 1.8m - 1 x 6…

Setting up first hydro setup....how clean do the hygromite clay rocks need to be? Is a rinse good enough or should they be thoroughly cleaned? Thanks in advance.

Hey guys, I'm 26 days into my first EVER grow. I have four plants under a 400w HPS, I decided to use bagseed for my first grow, but you know when you get an ounce, and maybe get one or two seeds from the bag?? that kinda bagseed ( i know, bagseed is bagseed right ). Anyways, like i said, 26 days. I have (yesterday) used my last little bit of fertilizer (ESU Greenleaves) and really don't have any way to get more until next week The plants are about 8 inches tall, and are looking quite healthy overall. Oh and i have the light set at 18/6. My problem is that one of the plants seems to be starting to flower. Is this possible, or are they just what i've seen called 'p…

Hey guys i have been out of the whole scene for a while now. I am looking for seeds though want to get in on this years season. The few seeds i have are not striking. Where in sydney can i get them or online order pm me if you know later

Hi Team! All I ever seem to grow are hermies. To date, I have been harvesting pretty early, probably too early judging but what I read here about when to harvest a female plant! My question is: Do the same rules apply for harvesting a hermie? I harvest early to avoid seeds, but is this the best strategy? Should I let it go longer and let the buds get bigger? I only have hermies so there is no chance of spoiling a real female! Thanks!

I switched to new nutes, Dutch Master Advanced. Anyway, after a few days my grow room stank! It was pretty bad, like a dead rat. However, it was not a dead rat but rather the nutes! It smelled bad for a week, then the smell disappeared - well, diminished markedly. Is this normal? :whistling

can u clone a plant thats say two weeks old, will it root. answers thnx
