General Cultivation Q&A

k, so it's my first real attempt at growing. I have 5 plants growing under some shop lights with plant/aquarium bulbs (about 5000 lumens total). They are about 2 and a half weeks into vege and between 4-6 inches. Look pretty healthy and i'm starting to worry about when i gotta start flowering. Since its spring here i want to move them outside for flowering but i don't know if i should start the 12/12 cycle using the shop lights or put them outside and hope they continue to vege for a bit and get a little bigger. Also what kinda weather should i wait for before i move them outside (tempature wise). Hopefully i can get my camera working and post some pics sometime soon. An…

Hey, awesome site.. :smoke I am picking up a couple clones from a close friend, I've smoked for a long time, but never grown hydro before, at all... To be honest, I seriously don't wanna shit the whole lot up, so.. any help would be great, fertilisers, chemicals, etc.. I was thinking of putting them in a closet (not all together, maybe 1 or 2) ... with 500watt lights (dunno which ones) for 2 lights. What do you guys think? thanks, Steve

Hey i was just wondering if anyone here can quickly tell me, if when seeds have germinated, if you can tell a difference in quality from the length of the root. I'm germ'ing a bunch of seeds for me and a mate (my seeds) and i thought someone had told me before, that picking the seed with the longest root, means it's a healthy chance and will flourish more throughout it's life/get through the seedling stage easier. If this is so, could someone please let me know. Thanks ~Pot 4 Peace / Peace 4 Pot ==>Don't forget to go to the Nimbin Mardigrass this April 30th/May 1st Peoples<==

Hiya all i have recently started my first grow with seeds i had handy from prievious mixes. I am really interested in getting some seeds but am a little nearvous . I have found a site with good strains and good packageing but just wanted some feedback from anyone who might have got seed sent internationaly or if there are any Oz seed banks that are reliable? I was looking at getting a P.O box rather than home addy but would it be woth it? Any advive/information would be much appreciated. Shivan

well i just wanted to know what some of your opinions are on ordering some seeds to my house in the states. 1. is it legal 2. would they even make it here. my other option is to use seeds from some bagweed. but then i have to deal with the males and stunted plants and such. what would you do?

Hey I just tried getting some of that microkill stuff but its a spray?? was there another one that goes in the res?? Anyways Im getting pissed off burning my fingers etc with oxyplus(h202) which is what I have always used. Bar the one time I tried pythoff. I brought Dutch master Guardian. Anyways my stupid stupid brain read it as 4 mls per litre, BUT its not its 2 mls per 10 litres. eg- I used put 120mls in 50 litres. yea I know fucking idiot, but I had just put some bloom additive in as well and it was 2 mls per litre. Anyways what can I expect? will this high level of mono kill the plants, or it wont bother them?? Should I dump and flush and refill, I woul…
