Hey guys, I'm after something small and cheap that will simply run off a timer and dump a small amount of water. Reason being I want to release carbon dioxide, via "co2 enricha" at lights-on every day. Obviously I would have to refill the powder every day but I can't always be there at lights on.... Know of anything? Its only like 50ml of water that needs to get dropped into a bowl.... anyone? I have the timer obviously, just need to release the water with a power-on...

ok . ive been searching around everywhere , hitting the hydro shops and seeing whats on offer . Ive decieded to go with a bubbler / dwc system . Ive got 2 black storage tubs 50L , Im going to run 2 pumps with two air stones each . Im going to run a 1.8h x 1.2w x 0.5d cupboard with a 400w mh/hps aircooled reflector . So the questions . How many plants per tub . 1 or 2 ? would 4 plants be to much in that space ? I just got a delivery of a sensi indoor pack so im growing semi unknown strains from seed , that means some males . It would be good to do say 4 to account for the males and also to get a couple of strains , clone from the fav , run the next grow in a scrog set…

Shot of my current grow. These were from some testers I obtained from the old MJOZ forums. The strains were described as Poisoned Jack, Northern Girl and Apollo 13/WiddowXFatFlo. I'm using an AutoPot system with perlite, 400 watt light with a Son T Agro lamp and Hydrobotanic bloom nutes with a bit of Monsta Bud. These little ladies are 4 weeks into flower and have a lovely grapefruit scent. Can't wait to see how they smoke!

But theres so many different opinions, like some want the nutes at 16-1800 while others say 1200!! Im growing WW x Skunk, Has anyone else grown this strain before? Does anyone know what the perfect nute solution is? I use A & B organics. and i got truncheon Also with the flush of water a week before rip, should it be that long?

I have my own opinions on this subject, gained through experience, but I'd like to hear from others who have similarly gained knowledge on the subject of; how long does Cannabis pollen remain viable after release from a mature male flower?

Hi, Just a quick run down of what i'm using. -400W light -50Lt tub with 4 plants growing -nutes are Flairform Grow and Flairform Bloom. (info can be found here..... http://www.flairform.com.au/Products/flairform.htm -plants were clones from SPC, Afghani # 1 and are 11 days old. I hand watered the clones with adjusted PH level (around 6.5) until the roots hit the tub. The water heater is on 24/7 and it is on 21 degrees. The roots hit the tub, then i added water and the nutes. The ph level was between 5.0 and 6.0 after adding Ph down and the nutes to get it right, only went for 5.0-6.0 cause it's the directions on the Flairform Grow bottle i'm using. Now i ha…

I recently made my first batch of honety with co2 last week, i have masterd the butane method repetively, and i must say the butane extraction works fine aslong as u use a good clean butane.. i will not tell u how , cuase u need to but some of your own thought in to this project.. but if u release enough co2 into a sealed canister you it will leak a liquid after preassure build up.. the oil comes out much much more yellower clear,, and much smoother.. i found that now that if i want to make honey with time and patience use co2, but if ur in a rush and jus want honey butane is the easiest way.. If u have any more questions post them and ill get back for sure.. other then t…

I'm gonna build my DWC bubblers in the next week or so. I'm planning on 15 to 20L buckets (does this sound about right?) One plant per bucket. All hooked to a control bucket which feeds from a main res. I reckon I'm gonna have 6 buckets in total and am mainly interested in recommendations on air pumps. One big pump for all buckets, or smaller pumps to run 2 buckets each? Also are there any brands that I should stay away from?

Well, I think I've discovered why it's taking my indoor plant so long to show buds.... Checked her this morning at 7:10am - should've been 20min before lights came on, and huh... lights were running already?! I checked my timer and discovered that I'd stuffed up my timings on Sunday->Monday. Lights were switching off at 7:30pm Sunday, then back on at 12:00am Monday, they would stay on right through till 7:30pm Monday night So, I don't believe I've done much damage, but I wanted to confirm, seeing as she'd be getting 19 or so hours of light for one day a week, with the rest at 12/12 - does this explain why she seems to be going through the flower phase very s…
