General Cultivation Q&A

Hi everyone, when germinating a seed, i used distilled water in fish filter wool, but how long should i leave them in there?? some publications say to have it there overnight, others say 2 weeks. And also is leaving it on top of something warm required? thanks

G,Day all Just need some as much advice as I can get. I got given this mister from a mate and have it going next to a bubbler to see the difference.

Hi everyone. This is a great site, I'll post my first growing experience as soon as it's finished. It looks like I've done *almost* everything wrong, but I've got a bush in my wardrobe and I've learnt a lot for next time. I was hoping someone could tell me if it's ok, or even necessary, to prune the big arse fan leaves that are covering the secondary growth, the leaves are pretty much sitting on top of each other. The first pic shows the undergrowth with the fan held back, the second is taken from pretty much the same angle with the fan leaf back in place. I'm worried that the undergrowth isn't getting enough light but I think I read that you're not suppo…

This isn't a bold new statement, just an observation. I recently germed some bb in two mediums - some in a perlite vermiculite mix put in the hole in a 2 inch rockwool block, and some in Bunnings seedling starter mix. The rockwool were done 1 week earlier. I soak overnite then put the seeds in whether they've germed or not. So - the rockwool, lost one seed the rest up in 4 days. The seedling starter, lost none, 2 up in 2 days after planting, the rest up on day 3. Now 3 weeks on the seedling starter ones look a lot more vigorous than the rockwool ones. And they are 1 week younger, but bigger leaved and thicker stemmed. I think the seedling starter may give a young se…

From the time I started growing I must have thrown out a couple of dozen spray bottles that stop working after a few uses. At last I have found one thats worked for me problem free for over three months and still going strong. I raided the cook and senior bud trimmer's cupboard in desperation one day and found this little gem so I've now placed a layby on four bottles of bathroom mould remover for her xmas present. Anyone had any success with other spray bottles ?

hey everyone can drip b used if using slow release fetilizer,do u want drip driping slow fast etc

My clay balls are in the oven to bake for 15 mins and I was wondering if it was OK to do the same to my perlite? I gave them a good wash a few hours ago and now I need to dry them out [not enough sun in the plan].

Being new to the hydro scene im in some need of some advice. I have a bag of coco mix and was wondering if u could use this in a bubbler system. Ie if the bottom of the pot was filled with geolite or vermiculite would this help. Im thinking coco will clog up the pump maybe even with geolite placed in the bottom of the pot? once again im only hypothesizing can coco be used in a bubbler system or what medium is recomended for this system Cheers
