General Cultivation Q&A

Hi all. I was repotting some seedlings yesterday, and during the process I was thinking about how hard it was for me to know what to do until I'd tried out a few things. Many plants suffered at my hands because I was slow to do things, or too quick with others... Anyway, I thought about it a bit, and came to an idea. I'll make a series of photos on how repotting a small seedling can go. And here they are. The subject is a Dutch Passion Purple Star Seedling. It's a little over a month old, and getting ready to power on her (I hope) main vegetative growth stages. To prepare for this, it's repotting time. The seedling was started in the Aquamiser, as some of you m…

Hi guys & gals, Iv brought a 250watt MH and made my bubbler bucket but I'm still confuzed. I know i need a pH tester, pH up & pH down chemicals. What else ?????

A few months ago I bought a clone from a hydro shop.She has now come to harvest time and I have found 3 or 4 seeds through out the plant. Does anyone know why this occurs? Also, can I clean my truncheon with a scourer? A friend has what we think is scarid fly.He is drenching now, but does anyone know the damage they can do, in terms of symptoms on the plant, the loss of yeild etc. They have been there a few weeks IMO. Really appreciate and thoughts or comments. Thanx

Hello. Can someone tell me why i have all these Yellow leaves on my plant ? About 15 % of the leaves on my plant are a pale Yellow. Theyre not burnt. the are still soft, but just yellow. The rest of the leaves are a nice green and are fine These yellow leaves also keep droping off after a few days. but as quickly as the yellow ones drop, some of the green ones start going yellow also and the vegetation on my plant is getting sparser and sparser !! I heard from someone it is a sign of lacking nutrients and i should vertalise them . Is thats true ? my dilema is the plants have started flowering and i also heard it is BAD to fertalise when your plants are in the flowerin…

I was wondering if n-e one has some good methods to share that could help me with quality of bud. For example I have one that helps with root growth. I put a plastic bottle(2 liter) over my plants, but first I spray the inside of it. Humidity grows and helps with good root production.

Hi, i have some cutting take off my mothers which are in flower now so if they are female the cuutings are good if they are male we bash the cuttings. Anyways i am flowering my indoor grow now and thinking about th next line of stock. Should i just get some top quality cuttings or seeds rather than go with a sativa based strain. what u boys reckon?

Hey everyone my plant is about 20cm tall now and has leaves going off in every which direction but i think its stopped growing heigh wise and its only just stopped when i started giving it nutrients should i stop giving it to them? and before the nutrients the leaves stood out and now there kinda drooping down they havent changed color or gone brown in places or anything it just seems like there too heavy and kinda hanging there. HELP!

Out of interest I collected the water runoff from an airconditioner in a bucket to see how pure it was. I dipped in the truncheon, and got no reading at all. I thought it was broken, but no, I tested it on some tap water and got a reading. So does this mean my A/C water runoff has an ec of 0.0 making it ideal to use in a hydro grow? Can anyone see a problem with this? I reckon I could collect more than enough water to keep my small grow running.

i want to know how to get rock hard buds,every time i grow there hard until they dry then they tend to lose all there weight and go fluffy is it the stained or what?

I have some seedlings that just broke through the rockwell cubes yesterday afternoon. Today I noticed that the two "leaves"on a couple of seedlings have what can be best described as putting their arms up. Both leaves reaching for the sky. They are in a humiity dome, with 2 x 20watt fluro's about 6" above the dome. I also have a fan blowing on them. They are in a cupboard, with the door open. I have been watering them with "pure water" and also put a small amount of water in the base (not in touch with the rockwool) The taproot on one of the plan ts have broken through the bottom of the rockwool cube, and is about 2 mm long, curled like a pigs tail. Is it heat …
