How do you tell if they have root rot and if they do what can you do about it. it seems like within the last week the water has gotten very sewer smelly, so i changed the nutes and water, is there anything else i can do? could the root rot be what is causeing the bottom leaves to shrivle up and die? any advice would h…

I bought a new one today and I'm pissed it isn't pumping water at all and it randomly goes on and off again while I am testing it ( I don't have a timer attached yet ) . whats more the instructions are little to zero help on trouble shooting the pump let allone simply putting it together, if they had not been such cheap asses buy sharing instruction pages with multiple models they could have put on decent instructions and diagrams I know it is all right so why the fook ain't it workin :angry: think I'm gonna go get another one from bunnings at least I never had a problem with it and it was half the price

Im DYING to find out if I can get some females, as I really love this smoke, but it was bagseed and I dunno what it is.. but anyway, I saw a microscopic pic of amale, just wanted to know if anyone had any of a female.. also, there are two, what seems to be small pistils, but.. they are green so they might just be the top of the female bud where the pistils …

Hi there, I have read somewhere that a dark period at the end of flowering for about 48hrs, just prior to harvest, increases the potency/quality of the final product. Anyone out there know of any truth to this. I am about to chop the last remaining plant in my first grow & am wondering if I should bother? I also read somewhere about harvesting early in the morning( in terms of light cycle) as there is supposedly more THC in the buds. Any ideas guys??

I use rockwool cubes (1.5cm cube in a 7cm cube) in a cocopeat/vermiculite/perlite mix and havent noticed any buildup, because im hand watering at the moment... i want to grow one decent female from the five plants i have going.. and clone it into pure rockwool/expanded clay balls... as this seems the quickest method of growing plants. Normally algae killer is sprayed on the surface of the soil, but because ill have the pump going all the time on drippers, will it affect the roots? Also, ive se…
