General Cultivation Q&A

Hi all, Well it turns out northen australia is dry and it has finally given me enough incentive to start my first hydro set-up. YAY While I have quite a few grand to invest in this venture, getting a hold of some decent information and seeds are becoming a bit of a problem. Mostly I have smoked moderate grade bush, but have had a few recent gems and have kept the seeds from them. Then my firend tells me that I will need to have "Hydro" seeds, not just regular seeds So does this mean that my current seeds are useless for any sort of hydroponic propogration? Should I just start spreading these seeds through peoples garden beds and watch them grow? What do I need …

dont no if im doing this right but hope it all comes up ok. I've tried growing b4 with varying consequences so now im going for it proper with a decent set-up. I wont bore you with the details of my other stone age set up just with ideas for my new 1 first off im going indoors wiv this and i woz going to opt for scrog but with the space i have available i wondered if i woz better off going down a different/more productive route as scrog seems to be more for space saving. The dimentions i have to play wiv are 15ft x 15ft x 8.5ft high, not saying im building a grow to fill all of this just thats what i've got to play wiv. I dont really want more than 15 plants…

Hello, I've germinated some seeds using the paper towel method. I've now placed them into rockwool propagating blocks but when should I move them under lights? Also, I've heard that you should start seedlings off under a fluro and move to the 400w once a few sets of leaves can be seen, is this correct? Thanks

Finally! Back up and growing A nice little temporary growroom, housing 8 B'shen and 1 white widow (my little baby ) clones. Hoping to get a quick grow off before going back to Perth. I'm using 7 CF's to veg for about another week, then I'll put them under a 600w hps. Got them in coco peat, and the WW in straight perlite, run to waste. Anyway, here's some pics, they're not all that brilliant sorry The first is my WW clone

just curious about clones, how many times can you clone a clone before it turns to crap smoke, I've seen some excellent looking smoke the last year or so lovely tight well formed buds but no smell or strength, is this what happens if you clone to many times.
