I had some pollen blowing around my grow area a month back. I'll wipe/sweep/vacuum as best as my questionable work ethic will allow. But do I need to worry about any residual pollen seeding my next crop?

Hey i saw this avilable in a store. Was just wondering if its good for its price ? http://www.users.bigpond.net.au/nutriflo/coco.jpg The Canna Coco Kit is a hydroponic system using the NEW Organic Canna Coco growing medium and a very unique automatic watering sensor called the Tropf Blumat sensor. The Tropf Blumat Sensor only waters the growing medium when it begins to dry out. Extremely simple to use, the Canna Coco Kit comes with 4 x 250mm pots & saucers, 30L bag of Canna Coco medium, 4 Tropf Blumat auto watering sensors with filter and hose, 35L drum, 2 x 1L Canna Coco nutrients and instructions. $125 Do you think its worth it ? Also i would like to say…

Was in a store today, and the guy that was there started to ask me about my system, and I told him it was bubblers. He didn't know what that was so I explained it to him. obviously he's never seen or heard of it before. Fair enough, hydro stores wouldn't make as much money if everyone knew how to build their own cheap & easy bubblers which grow just as well or better than any of their premade systems. then he took a call while I was there. He told whoever rang up that he couldn't grow a mother under fluoros. They were only for rooting clones and would only keep plants alive for a short time and he needed a Son-T or Sunmaster light for his mothers, which is just…

Alright ... I can see this question getting kinda huge and involved so I'll keep it as brief as possible. I'm a little dubious as to which method to sex plants with. From my research I know that there are the main 3 ways... observing preflowers, flowering clones, or flowering then revegging. Has anyone observed the preflower technique to work successfully? It sounds like quite easy but how reliable is it? Flowering clones seems to be the best method, but how long would this take? From what I've been reading, obviously you must wait until your plants are old enough to take cuttings from, then one must wait until the cuttings are rooted and then more waiting until the…

Hi there everyone. I've got the grow up and running again. Fucking rippers decided that outdoor growing was a no-no for me. But that's another story. Anyway, I have two bbxww ladies, planted outdoors in late feb, (hydro) which are looking very, very resinous. (YAY!) They aren't that big, and if I had to guess, I'd say they're about halfway through flowering. I've also got a couple of clones of another indica strain, (HFS) these were also taken around early jan and grown outside in perlite, they didn't get past 30cm! (not enough light). I want to re-veg all four of these plants, and then clone them off to get the best out of them. Now, I've removed the top 2/3 of …
