General Cultivation Q&A

Is there any need to use seed raising mix? I have cannaterra as my final medium and have cheap so called "premium" raising mix from Bunnies. I feel like I'm better off going straight into a small cannaterra pot once the taproot shows vs seed raising mix? What are your professional opinions? I'm very new first time.

Hi there, I am learning how to grow in a 1.5x1.5 tent with a spider farmer SF7000 and also using the CYCO full range. I am setting up a return to res set up for 1x50L pot that I’m Planning to SCROG and veg for maybe 8weeks or more. Reservoir is 40L. From some stuff I read it said you want at least 8L per plant in res, but I wanted to go a little bigger to help with fluctuations, I’d love to know if this is WAAAAY overkill or not. Also, I’m planning to run my light period at night time to warm the tent as my intake temps seem to be around 16c at night, and about 23c under the light. Today my dark period during the day would of been around 28 at a guess (I had the light …

Getting over bottle fed nutes. Seems everyone designs the bottle stuff so you gotta mix at least 4 or 5 different products throughout the grow. I've been online in other forums and seen growers killing the pig with simple a + b powders from start to finish + a few doses of cal mag. I think the powder market is different than the bottle stuff. Looks like the dry stuff is all purpose hydro nutrition and designed to grow anything from start to finish without any dramas, Anybody here using any dry powder nutes and having success. I'm pretty much looking for the most basic gear that I can find. This idea that Canna is a special plant with special needs is all just marketing…

Recently scooped another two packs of this Buddha Diesel Haze from the legend @Ferala9x / Feral Genetics. Favourite sativa I ever grew, very tasty sour buds with a ripper sativa high, borderline paranoia inducing and psychedelic. We got two good keepers from a pack and with the two to hunt through I’m sure I’ll find something just as good. Genetics are SuperSilverSourDieselHaze from Rez Dog, reproduced by Connoisseur Genetics, crossed to Feral’s Thai Buddha male. Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile app

A couple grows ago, I did an indoor tent grow with fabric pots and organic soil. Great quality bud, but not a great yield. I think that was entirely my fault: soil too wet, then too dry, humidity & temp issues, and pots were too small for no-till. That's learning for you! I've got environmental control sorted now and want to try organic soil again. I was going to use 20gal (75L) fabric pots + Blumat irrigation with no-till amendment kits from Organic Gardening Solutions. BUT, I just found these AUS-made Vegepod sub-irrigation planters. I don't need the covering or misting components inside a tent, so will just skip them. But a 100*100*26cm SIP planter sounds a…

Hi all, I have some power/load problem in my grow room where I'm having globes blow fortnightly. I was advised to change from the strong grow globes to the bloom globes as they use less and will hopefully stop the globes shitting themselves so often. Has anyone had to do this and if so how did they turn out? I have 3 photo clones at 2 weeks old. I was told all it does is creates a bit more stretch but that's all. Any advice is appreciated:-)

Hey all, just wondered , what are sum seed banks in Aus, & ship from Aus !! The only 1 ive seen with a bit of a choice was Yantra Is there a few others worth a peek Happy times Nutter

I’m honestly sorry I have to waste good people’s time and this is probably in the wrong place. But, I need some help please because I know f-all, but also because I’m colourblind. My friends smoke putrid PGR bud and don’t understand the consequences. I’ve been trying to stop them for years, even showing them high quality strains, but they are in the “anything is good to smoke” mindset that probably makes people on this forum shiver and shudder in disgust. -it has barely any smell, even when grinded, and if it does, it’s that revolting ammonia like smell that’s associated with PGR, but they obviously don’t believe me, so is this bud PGR? ( I apologise in advance for was…

Hi there folks! Getting some seeds for my Dad to grow who is in chronic pain. Even if he does go to a Dr to get the meds I believe its very pricey if he were to be prescribed with it so we have taken the route of seeds. I therefore wondered if anyone can help advise me as to: What soil What food Amount of water per day Temperatures Indoors or outdoors Fans needed? How much darkness / light etc Very new to this and need some guidance if possible folks Thanks!!

Hi all Wondering what the best setup is for correct drainage is? Currently have saucer under pot growing in soil/compost mix. Obviously pooling is not ideal and looking for a better solution. Thanks Pictures would help. Cheers Posted from the OZ Stoners mobile app
