General Cultivation Q&A

I'm a newbie that has just finished my first grow, and am kind of curious as to your thoughts on the following subject. It says in the "Complete guide to growing marijuana" and I quote True, but I think the size of the plant, and more importantly the size of the buds directly effects the quality of the product. For the simple reason that a larger bud has less surface area than an equal proportion of smaller buds. Less surface area means less trichome loss through transport, and contact with bags. Like I said I am a newbie to growing but am an experienced user and along the way have found larger buds do last longer than an equal amount of smaller ones. :scratchin :s…

Hey, Any Brissy growers out there that have had luck with moving plants outside this time of year? I've got three sativa testers that are starting week 7 in flower and are growing at varying heights. Two of them are similar enough to leave as they are and hopefully finish off in the next 3-4 weeks. The other one is a good 25 - 30 cm shorter but still well into flower. So my light distance is a bit fucked up but it doesn't seem to be making this one stretch and the bud is still nice and tight. So is there any reason why I couldn't put that one outside to finish off, harvest the other two in the next 3 weeks or so and do a bit of maintenance on my grow room before putting…

As you can see the next ones underway :reallyexcited: Its a nice strain i've tried it in the vapourisor and thats why i'm going to grow it, its bloody lully. Same system as before using bio bizz hydro nuits that are a gift and not avaliable to the open market. 2x enviros in a drobe. :thumbsup

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!

Hey all out there Just found this great site, usaly on cannabis.com Im a first time grower, but have done that much reading on hydro and growing dope, i pretty much know the ropes. 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? Again ive been told do only 2 days flush,to save nutes in the plant! what do you guys and girls think!!!! Ive added a pic. Just finished its 3rdwk of bloom, …
