General Cultivation Q&A

So I got hold of some Blue Cheese Autos from expert seeds. Tried to germ the first 4 in Jiffy pots and after 8 days nothing popped. I checked them out and all 4 were doing f all. I squeezed some run off out of the jiffy's and the pH come in at 4.3, I thought that's not real good and could be the problem so I put another 4 into a paper towel with water ph'd to 6 and 3 days later no sign of f all. I read a couple of reviews on the interwebs and there seems to be others out there who reckon all the experts seeds they tried to germ were duds. So just wondering if anyone on here has run any of their strains with any success? I'm thinking I'll throw all that I have in …

Hey guys, I am new to the autoflower scene, and she is growing quickly my only problem is I came home today and she is praying like I have never seen before. She has started flowering way before I thought she would, I am wondering if it's time to lower the lights? What are your thoughts?

Hi guys/gals, I’m a bit of a rookie when it comes to hydroponics. I’ve recently invested in a 19L bubbleponics setup. My first go of it I didn’t run a top feed and running the water close to the bottom of the basket seemed to keep my plants roots way to moist resulting in death. This is my second go, and this time around I’ve only added 10L and then bought a small pump and tubing for a top feed, which comes on every 6hrs for 2mins. With the air stone in the bucket with only 10L is still splashes the bottom of the basket which is ideal and with the nutes the plant itself is absolutely cranking!! My que…

I haven't been active here in a little while, but I did spend the last few months growing some medicine in a tent with a Vegepod and LOS. I used some no-till kits & supplements from OGS to make a typical Cootes type soil. All went well and the flowers went in jars for curing last night. I already have a plan for the next grow, because I enjoy the experience more than I actually need more flower! I'm confident the soil initially had good components & ratios as I used tried & true stuff. And the results look like they'll back that up. But I admit reamending the soil is still a bit hazy for me. Everyone gardens differently and some plants will use more/le…

Can someone give me guidance. It is an outside grow. Where I am from we have had a lot of rainfall. There are 3 ladies side by side but only 1 looks like this! The first picture is of the plant last week of November. I have tried to retrieve the situation and I have cut clones etc, kind regards Jackie

Seems that nobody stocks GH products anymore ? Or they are frightfully expensive old stock? The GH Maxi Bloom used to be great value at around 25 bucks a bag but its now out of stock everywhere or a total rip off. Are there any good one part powdered foods for lazy novices like me?

I started using Emerald Harvest nutes. The last week flush feeding schedule calls for using the Honey comb, 1.5ml per litre. Has anybody used this before? I normally just plain water flush. Cheers

Hi all, I'm new here. Are there any products which can be used for flushing in the finall week that will really, produce weight gain as well? I am currently experimenting with Liquid Lead. I'm using it for the last four days only instead of a week like I wanted to, cos I left it too late. I'm using it by it's self, no other nutes. The instructions on the bottle say to use it for the last three weeks at a rate of 2.5ml/L. Has any one had experience or experimented with this product? What other options are there? Cheers, thanks in advance

Anyone else in Sydney area having problems with growth? Is it the weather? My damn seedlings have barely grown for weeks. I’ve grown plenty outdoors and by now they’re waist high!
