Is it good to blow smoke on your plants? I heard it was because of all the co2 but .... :smoke

Hey guys, Im considering changing my airpump ( 20 litres / min ) for a powerhead or 2. Can anyone tell me if its worth it??

Hi Gang, whats up? I was looking for General Hydroponics Subculture product, but had troubles to find it so far... I live in sydneys north, but atm i'm working in the west, so i'm flexible when it comes to the location of the hydrostore. BTW, why is it that everytime i go into a growshop and ask specificly for one thing they are trying to sell me some of their homebrewn (probably made in the bathtub) stuff? Thanx in advance, mace

My plants leaves are turnig yellowish and has brown spots on the ends, is it sick? I think it might of been the lighting was too hot but how do I make it heal. thanks

hi all when changing to 12/12 for flowing how long should u wait until you change to flowing nutrients ???? or should u change it at the same time

Okay Guys and Girls, Just a quick question!! When do you start counting the days for budding? Do you start counting the days when the first preflowers appear?? I have no idea, I'm growing outdoors and I have determined sex around 4 weeks ago. My girls have been stretching heaps and I think they have stoped the stretch now and I have little buds starting to form and they are looking really good except for one girl that has been attacked by some bug. I cant find the bug as such but I have started spraying with the garlic spray recipe supplied by Ferengi420. Cheers Thatswho

Hi all I was wondering when I can start to flower. they will be 7 weeks old in 2 days. grew from seed they look like indica. they showed sex last week. I have two clones going from them. Thanks.

geting ready to flower my ak47 seeds in a few days, wondering if anyone has experience on stretch with this strain, Im working on the theory of 2/3 growth during flower, its indoors in a 1.8m box, hydro

Hey all, Well got a fresh batch of seeds, going for another attempt. Now others mentioned to use distilled water to soak the rockwool cubes or paper towel etc, instead of normal water. At the supermarket they gave me demineralised and said it was the same thing. Is this correct? Would I be right to use this? Also What germination technique should I go for this time? I was thinking id try soaking some rockwool cubes and placing the seed about 1cm down, placing in a dark area and make sure the cube stays moist. If that didnt work Id go for direct sow, and finally the paper towel method But yeh my real question is about the water. Cheers!

Been reading alot over at the advanced nutrients web site, and i got 2 say they really got there shit together with there product lineup. Carnt wait till they get there hole range in Australia, as I would like to try there hole nutrient system. There flore calulator looks unreal and can be adjusted for weeks and litres of tank, very professional. Have allways used General Hydro products, but looking at AN products they could knock GH off there perch. But only a test grow will confirm. Has anyone had any experiance with there products? Jack
