Hi all , just wondering about this Boveda, its new to me, & comes with no instructions.....my question is.......if you had well over dry herbs, & you placed a Boveda pak in a big jar , put say 20 grms of very dry herb with it , then sealed the jar, would you expect the 20 grms to gain a small amount of weight or is it better used to reduce moisture, & guard against mould ??

G'day Guys! It's my first time posting here, and I'm also looking to start my first grow. So far I have everything in order, BUT, when it comes to the soil/nutrients part, I get a little confused and overwhelmed by all the different opinion/information that flies around online (especially in overseas forums). SO, I was hoping some of you experienced Aussie growers could help point me in the right direction regarding which soils to use for a small, indoor grow. And also, which nutrients should I be using for Veg and Flower? (so many to choose from) Ideally, I'd like to be able to grab these items from either my local Bunnings or nursery. I DO have access to a local hyd…

Hey everyone. A mate's gifted me a bag of Canna Terra Professional and I'm wondering if anyone here has had any success with it and any tips when it comes to using it? I've been using some Sri Lanka coco with basic coco nutes (Greendream) the last couple of years and while it works it'll be good to try something new. Also I've limited myself to small indoor runs and it would be good if I could run this outside this upcoming season. I talked to the guys at the local hydro shop about it and they were telling me I should run it in conjunction with H&G soil or coco nutes on a feed water water feed basis every 3 days or so or when the soil is going dry.

Hi all,,,, Im wondering what way up you plant your seed , pointy end up or down?.....As i , crack the seed before planting, exposing the tap root, then plant it root down. But according to an article ive read recently, thats wrong.......apparently the 1st thing the tap root does is take a u turn, so if its planted down it has to go up , then down again,....but if planting the root facing up it only has 1 turn to make, the reason for the u turn , is to give itself leverage to push out of the soil, which does make a lot of sence. The article goes on to say if you dig up a seed (planted down) before emerging you will see more of a s bend in the tap root, & can lead …

Hello Looking for Organic tea help. I have made an awesome lucerne (alfalfa) tea and now im almost ready to make my Super Tea. My plan is to use the lucerne tea as the base for my solution as i have access to unlimited pidgeon, chicken and Horse Manure, worm castings and am trying to obtain bat and seabird guano. I also make my own potash from burning hardwood. I plan to add molasses to the mix. My tea container holds 150 litres My question is 4 fold: 1) For this project is there such thing as overkill. Should i just add all these together and steep it in the tea or should i add equal parts? 2) should i add the Guano and the potash only whilst using it for flower (which …

This shows how dopey I can be! At four weeks of 24/24 l put a little two light LED (about 100w draw) in my box alongside a 600w. That was a week ago but last night I realised I forgot to put it on a timer . It was on for seven days. The 600w has been on a timer. I'm guessing the plants are wanting to revert to veg but won't be able to as I put a timer in today,but I'm wondering how long it's going to stall things till harvest ? I'm thinking an extra two weeks but will probably loose a bit in yield.the last couple of nights I started to think they'd slowed down a bit ,so there are visible signs of a reaction Big Bud had started to show brown hairs when it shouldn't ,other …
