General Cultivation Q&A

I was reading through erowid and found this extract, I'm not interested in doing it but I just thought it could be interesting to read "Hops are propagated worldwide by rhizomes, but are rarely available to the general public as a result of the U.S. federal government's attempts to stop their possible abuse as material grafted onto marijuana stocks. However, they are still available from Wine and the People (see Sources). Propagating hops by rhizomes has the advantage over seeds in that they will sprout sooner after planting if the weather is warm. However, they have serious disadvantages. Propagation by cuttings for too long limits the genetic bank of the plant. Thu…

hey peoples, I was after a bit of feed back on headrushes " blend #7 " , who has used it , was it worth it ect I have heard one or two people say they live buy it now .... I have been considering it a while but don't wanna waste money atm if it's not gonna make a significant difference ( this grow has been a pain in the ass money wise after my "runn-in " ) also to those of you that have used headrush nutrients wouldn't mind your opinions on them too as I may run them in my next grow

I'm interested in hearing propogation methods of guerilla growers. I need to work out what way I am going to start my seedlings so it will be easier to carry to my site (out bush). I'm thinking that I will use large trays filled with potting mix and vermiculite. Do you think the roots would get too crowded planting them all together in a tray(temporary, maybe three weeks before I plant)? Would I be better off growing in jiffy cubes? I wont use rockwool as It is too expensive:whistling

you have probably heard of people having grown dwarf cannabis, well heres a simple technique to dwarf your plants. get an old ice cream container and cut it down untill its about an inch deep fill with soil plant your seed's 1cm down when they sprout the tap root hits the bottom of the ice cream bucket and stunts the plants growth. You leave it in the container for a few weeks, by the time there are a few sets youll notice its throwing out sets of leaves no bigger than a 20 cent peice then transplant into bigger pots the plant will then continue to grow dwarfed ive seen plants grown this way that are barely a foot tall with 30 sets of leave's with hands no bigger than a …

Hey fellas... i'm preparing for my first virgin grow. i've made my cupboard, equipped with intake & extraction fans, eye bolt & chain to hang light (which i'm getting tomorrow). The soil mix i've made comprises vermiculite, perlite, river pebbles, lava rock, styrofoam, and potting mix (about 35-40%). I have some nitrosol liquid feeder, which seems to have sufficient amounts of N, P & K. Is this mix sufficient for holding nutrients, for airation and drainage?? is there any nutrient solutions i should use instead of just home variety nitrosol?? any feedback or advice would be much appreciated. Thanks guys...
