I am about to setup my first growroom in a few weeks. I have grown outdoors- what strain i have no idea but i managed to get roughly 1 pound from each plant. I generally just toss them in the ground, water them and occasionally pour some compost from my worm farm on the ground. Nothing too complicated although the plants were only about 5ft tall. i was just wondering how much 1 hydro plane averages in yield? i know it depends on a lot of different things, but is there an average? Is it possible to get a pound from one hydro plant? This is quite a debatable topic, so i am interested in hearing the 'true stories' of how much one plant has actually yielded. It does n…

Does anyone know anything about additive U-Turn. What are its active ingredients, why is it packaged like some guy or girl has made it up in the garage, why there is absolutely no info on bottle such as directions for use, company name? It works well in pumping up bud size and stopping vertical growth but info is hard to get. All thoughts and comments appreciated.

sorry to sound like an amateur, but this is my first indoor grow,and i'm not sure what to use first.I have been using "Zennax" fert. it's a 2 part mix for veg(it makes about 1000 litres)There was only one bucket for the vegative stage,but two buckets for the flowering/fruit stage(one for each). My question is: Do i use the flower first, and then the fruit (i assume that's correct), or do i use fruit first,then flower.Or do i mix them both together?(it doesn't say to do that on either of the buckets). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks - CALYX.

Ok I am gonna be getting my exhaust fan this weekend and I was after a little info on what size I need for my growroom the first thing I did was get the area of the GR which is 2.4 m3 (cubic meters) then I figured the room need to have lots of fresh air passing through so I then multiplied the size of the room buy 45 times which gave me a total of 108m3 and that means that I need to have a fan that can can suck at least 108m3 per hour. also Incase it matters I will be using a pasive intake system my bottom line question is what size fan do I need ( how many mm )

Just a general enquiry, I have been looking at sog / scrog growing for a little while, and am rather intriuged at the yield / space that these kind of techniques utilize. I am yet to set up a hydro setup myself and would love to, however I have been told by a fellow grower / mate that I would be better off under the circumstances I am under to setup a one / two pot plant under light grow. This is a good idea as I am totally new, am yet to have my own house etc. I was just wondering however, could you use a couple of pot plants and train them to fill a screen? Or do non - hydro setups not have the speed of grow / ability to change nutes etc as fast to make a screen worthwh…

I was wondering if you guys could help me with a little info on training. firstly what is the best thing to use so I don't damage the plants I could imagine some things would cut the stem over time and pressure. and my next question is at what stage do you guys start trainign the plant do I have to wait till a certain stage of their growth ? . they are clones so they are already matured plants. the answer to those Q's or some links to training methods would be greatly appreciated thanx again

Hi, Just been to 3 different hydro shops in western melbourne and each has told me that superbud in no longer available wholesale. The word is that they wont reveal whats in it. I also noticed there web site has no info on the product any more. A futher note is that some NEEM based products are gonna be taken off shelves. So looks like the oz goverment are looking more closely about what the hydro companies are selling. I guess thats a good thing as i wanna know wtf i'm smoking! The Neem thing is a bit sus but.
