General Cultivation Q&A

Hiya, I was thinking about the lowryders and i starting wondering since they are smaller plants with alot smaller yeild,would they need less light energy to flower since their so small so like,instead of doing say, a 3/4 plant grow with a 600wt,doing sayy..20/30 lowryders and still getting the normal amount off all the ryders?? it might sounds like much but i figure they can grow in large mcdonalds coke cups so you could fit afew close together in a meters space and the yeild would be the same as a 4 normal plant grow,cept that they done in 8 weeks easy to manage and mainly eaiser to hide. also iv heard hybred lowryder strains are around?? does anyone know what ones t…

Excellent for beginners. Good little "doco" about indoor growing. Certainly gave me confidence to set up my own system as opposed to a hydro kit. Anybody want a copy I'm willing to trade.. Midora happy australia day

the cutting has shown signs of growth since yesterday but today when i checked on the cuttings this 1 had a root coming out the base of the plant where the stem is and then went back down at the corner of the cube never seen anything like that, is it normal or just a freak of nature that im gonna have to keep an eye on as it now has an exposed root system?

hey im just wondering what would be the best kind of power board to use when growing in a wardrobe using a 400watt hps and 2 fans??? hasnt over loaded or anything yet, but im just concerned when it comes to storms :thumbdown for example, today it started hailing out of the blue, melted in 5 mins and stopped raining in 20 but there was a fair bit of thunder and lightning going which worried me....is easy to blow globes and start fires if your not carefull :thumbdown basically what im after is a power board that when its over loaded with power, shuts off for like 15 mins and has the ability to kill the connection before any damage can be done.....is that even possib…

Hi all, I have a fellow grower out here whom I'm assisting, and they're allowing me to post a few pics of the setup and plants as they grow, to show off here. They're very shy, and don't wish to post it themselves, so I have graciously agreed to help out. Anyway, from now on, let's refer to this person as... oh, I don't know... say, Leia... That'll do. Anyway, young Leia is strong with the force, and is just beginning this grow, which you'll hopefully see fairly regular updates on.
