Well guys, After a lot of pressure from, wade ounce, pipeman, Luke SkyWalker, Taz Stoner, TUGBOAT, Budsta and many others I am going to lay it all on the green line and walk the "Green Mile" and just hope that I can make this grow as good and so well put together as Nimmer did with the help of Luke Skywalker & co several months ago. If I can come anywhere close to that, which I doubt very much, I will be a happy chappy and my mentors, many as they are will be happy with me too. I must say a big thanks to all of you guys who have spurred me into doing this and I sincerely hope i dont screw up. Special thanks go to Pipeman who is putting his time and patience i…

i was wondering what would be the the right ph for mj,at the moment i have a ph of 4.5-5.0 acid,half my plants have taken off,the other half seem to have stunted growth.

I am finally beginning to get the bits and pieces together for my new plan for a stealth cupboard/ shower recess... love this site, its making life soo much easier.... I was wondering whether anyone had any ideas about the aeration of the nute tank. I understand a lot of people use airstones to create turbulence and add more oxygen to the water. please correct me if I've missed the point... I used to keep a lot of fish in an aquarium so I know a little bit about that, and airstones are largely unnecessary and in some cases decorative. Rising air is mainly used in an aquarium to create an upward current of water, usually through a tube attached to an undergravel filter. O…

Hello folks, It's been a while since I did any real posting here, but I've finally got on track and taken a decent shot at this whole growing thing. For the moment I don't have any pics but I should be able to get ahold of a digital camera in the next couple of days from work, and then the real fun can begin. No one likes a grow thread without pics So, where am I at the moment? I have two clones going that I recieved in the mail nearly 2 weeks ago, and they are going very strong. I think they were about 7" or so when I got them, now they're averaging about 13-14" and these fuckers are growing so quick I can barely keep up with them. They are looking extremely bushy…

Swing has been trying a couple of nutrient additives and has had very good results Product one:- Budlink soluable silica -- In one work "brilliant".This product is the bomb to make really healthy, diease resistant and thick steamed plant. Its for use in vege and flore stage. You can really see the differance. Product two:-Kabloom by General Hydroponics - wow was my first impression after using this product for a couple of weeks --- shits all over canna pk 13-14 --- On a comparsion of the two products Kabloom had 30% bigger and heavier buds than plants which had the Canna pk 13-14 additive. Swing has now changed his nutrient/additive routine to the following and ha…
