General Cultivation Q&A

Ok , we all understand the consept of 18-6 then 12-12 for a photoperiod, but because of the predertimened time of Auto's are we better to run 20-4, for there entire growing...........ive not had a lot to do with Autos, but i think its fair to say they can be fickle, like to hear some thoughts, please Nutter3

I have acquired a few bags of old/dried rabbit poo and thought I'd give it a go in my grow, (using it in the yard too) I've begun to use it on my plants that are in veg, so far so good currently using a combination of rabbit poo tee and top dressing the plants Couldn't find much on using it except a few words from Louise stating it is a good thing Yes it did stink when I top dressed with the poo, but it wasn't that bad anyone have experience with rabbit poo and a cannabis grow? ta stoners! edit - found this rabbit poo is N- 2.4 P -1.4 K 0.6

I'm on a mission to build the finest soil possible here in Australia and I thought this would be a good starting point! I have two small worm farms at home but it's not quite enough for want I'm after. Thanks

I'm very much considering a plan that involves a mother that is cared for over multiple years. Stopping here. From what I've read, mothers aren't suggested to be kept for extended periods and maybe a few years at a top before taking a clone to restart the mother from "scratch". However, I have been told that from tests that have been done in the US by bigger companies that there is nothing that shows extended mother retaining is a bad practice and could possibly be done for up to decades. However, expect a bushy AF mother. I'm 100% torn on what the hell I should try. I'm actually really keen on the idea of being able to maintain a mother plant to just take a clone off e…

So I am looking to put together one of these PPK systems popular on icmag at the moment and am looking to avoid the issues inherent in coco(bugs mainly) so is there anything out there that will work like what the yanks use known as Turface which is just calcined clay in the right sizing to be good for a growing media as far as the reading I have done has told me. Only thing I can think of that is similar is clay kitty litter but fuck that shit is 80% dust.

For those of you who maybe interested I received an email this morning offering a course in Cannabis as medicine. I am in no way affiliated with Green Flower but am merely a member who receives their newsletters and thought others here may like to investigate. Admittedly there is a cost being $197US or $261AUS, but for those who want the info it maybe a valuable resource.

ok..so I poked my head in the room to check if the lights were on yet and saw that at some point ive left the normal light globe room light on meaning that during the 12 hour lights off period the girls have had the glow of a small light globe on instead of complete darkness...there only two weeks in and are still showing some little pre-flowers...they seem to have stretched more than usual but my question is....should i leave them in complete darkness for 24 hours to try and make up for lost dark periods or just keep the usuall 12/12 going...any suggestions? p.s im not too concerned about them going hermi or back to veg as little flowers are looking normal.
