Hey all, recently I changed nutes from a cheaper brand called "Green Haze". 25 a bottle I think. In it's place I bought what I've been hearing as the greates t nutes arount "CANNA". $33? Actually, the money is irrelevant, at the cost of pot, a few bucks a bottle is nothing, so I'd even pay more if it came down it. I mean if anyone has any suggestions....(just dont tell the companies I'll go higher...shhh....) Now I'm seein much much slower growth than I did with the green haze. I mean significantly slower. If I'd seen no differnet, I may say all is well, but they just aren't booming (at the same NUTE strenghts). Do I have to just increase this stuf?Or what ? I'm …

I went to the garden center yesterday and I bought a 5kg bag of dynamic lifter, a 10kg bag of blood and bone and 4 25lt bags of potting mix. The potting mix was a bit expensive at $5.90 a bag, but it was really good quality stuff. I've got some big straw bales at home and some sheep shit that have been sitting around for about 2 years now and I was thinking that I could mix them together in the compost tumbler. What do you guys think? In what way should I use this stuff? Thanks, Marty

I'm just about to get my first ever crop started. Because this is my first year I haven't thought to get compost ready before hand. However, I've got plenty of horse manure (fresh) to put in the soil. I'll be planting near a river, and the soil is pretty loamy, because it's mainly broken down plants from the river's edge. Is this good soil to be planting in? Would you recommend that I put some potting mix, dynamic lifter, etc into the soil?

Constantly rising PH level

My PH rises to alkaline every day in my flood and drain setup with expanded clay as a medium. I am worried about this because I think it should only be a weekly occurence. Should I discontinue using my tap water and stock up on distilled or is adding 1ml of PH down every few days for 20L of water OK [i let it stay alkaline for a few days]? OR, if you think this isnt a good situation could I dump the water every fortnight instead of getting distilled or is my tap water a big problem? Ive added about 5ml of PH down to the 20L and havent topped up the reservoir yet. PS. Im using liquid tester but I used the same kit last time and adjusted it weekly - it was different t…

I have about 40 clones (1st clones) i have transplanted and they seem to be very week for the first 24 to 48 hours and they perk right back up after a little mist and fulvic acid, do you have any suggestions on transplanting and any type of stimulator i should use. Also the clones are about 6 to 12 inches high at transplant is this big enough and how big should i expect them to get, also is there any type of pruning i should be doing or topping to make more buds?

At present I have two plants that I have started from seed ( Sweet Skunk) and they have been growing for nearly four weeks and are about 10 inches high. They have been under a 24 hour light period from the start and after looking today I found one begining to show a female flower. Is this going to be a problem if I still keep the plants in a veg cycle as I would like them to get a bit bigger before flowering. I know some of you are going to question my 24 hour light period but I have used this on my first grow (Sweet Skunk again) and had no problems. My set up is a 4ft x 2ft cupboard with a 150 watt high pressure sodium bulb for all stages. Once again some of y…

I lost every plant I had this weekend when my dear old mother decided to spruce up my garden mistaking my young ducksfoot plants for weeds... She also noticed I had a few plants in pots and commented on them, I said they were some odd plant I had found in the garden when I moved in and decied to cultivate them to see what they were. She knew what they were and told me so.... At least she beleaved me when i said i had no clue as to what they were. So she up rooted them and disposed of them.... I now have a few extra plants in my garden and a few less weeds. Alas I am without my babies.... Shes staying here now and things are looking down..…

I can't seem to locate in Perth yet, the Canna Tera Vega, and Flore. I keep reading about it, but the couple of retailers I've tried don't have it. Have any Perthites seen it around? Info much appreciated.
