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.

I would appreciate some detailed instructions on the various ways you guys are using your ozone gens. Do you have to turn your exhausts off because wouldn't the ozone get sucked out and not be effective, then maybe have a heat problem. I know shit all about them but thinking about getting one.
