Seed Germination & Mediums Author: Awol/CoA Created: 19/4/04 Contributions: (None) Overview: There are many choices and options you can make when picking the medium to use for seeds. Hopefully this guide will make your choice easier and help you understand the different mediums which are readily available at the majority of Nurseries and Hydro Shops. Rockwool Plugs: Whilst Rockwool plugs are small in size, they are a good medium to use for sprouting seeds, one reason being that they don't contain large amounts of water, thus allowing some air to penetrate the root of the seed once it has sprout, it also can be a down-fall because you need to check on it regularl…

hello all, i've been lookinf for info about growing weed indoors. not that much at all, huh?? i thought it was complicated. Anyway, my problem is that where i live the electricity gives out and blacks out for god knows how long. it's remote part of indonesia. I heard that sudden blackouts to the MJ plant while hurt em. i was thinking of something that would keep the power on (just to the grow room) if the power blow down a good 12 hours. like a generator or charger of some kind?? i don't want to use those diesel things that sound too large. might wake up the villagers. anyone know if a way or a device that might work?

These things claim to never need calibrating, but how true is this?? Has anyone acutally tested to make sure that they stay accurate? Only reason I ask is because I just changed mine and a mates res today and we used ALOT more A+B than we normally would of in his system.

They have a lot of criminal show in Indonesia and iaw a report about a radi that happened in West Sumatra. Anyway, there were a few guys smoking near a lake and s bunch of cops raided them. Guns were drawn and one of the smokers ran. While he was running a cop shot ias gun and the bullet peirced the smokers calve (below the thigh muscle) and he went down. Shootings done by the cops to people without any weapons are very common in Indonesia and some of the time the police tell the the raidees to run so they can shoot. pretty sick pigs, huh?? I'm so pissed seeing these incidents every single day. pigs are pigs but indonesian pigs are the lowest of the low!! What about ove…
