Hi all, As anyone that's read my grow log for the past season would know I lost most of my plants to rippers. I went out today and the plants that had been cut have some life left in them. So I was wondering if there is a way for me too keep these girls alive till next season or until I can take some early clones? Best idea I can come up with is some solar flood lights and go back to vege nutes and try and get them to reveg. Any ideas would be awesome. Give me something to try over the next few months while I'm setting up the next plots Thanks everyone Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

After several unsuccessful cloning attempts - in rockwool, in aeroponic cloner, in a glass of water - I came across this really easy method and decided to give it a try. Since then I've had 100% success rate in 2 separate attempts with very little effort. I would post a link to the page but unfortunately can't remember where I read about it!! Fill container [i used clear disposable cups] with coco and saturate thoroughly. Poke a hole in the coco. Prepare your cutting - no need to trim or cut leaves to reduce leaf area - and stick it into the hole and press the coco back firmly. Spray with DroughtShield and put in a light place with no direct sun and in 10 - 11 …

Hi all just got info power will be out tomorrow. I was thinking to be safe and not drown the roots due to no pump, I should drop the res down to expose the rootball to air and just leave a bit in the bottom. Lights will be out 3 hours earlier but not too concerned. The res is due for a flush so should I dump majority of it before power is turned off? Cheers

Hello all So, I have been using Growth Technology Optimum and when i got my first bottles A+B i got home and noticed the lids were not sealed. They had a plastic seal but its just attached to the lid and spins off with the lid. Then i noticed that part B looked like it had a generous liter in it but part A had 850-900ml in it at most, visibly different. I went back some time later and the guy offered me NF Root Nectar 1L for $20. Seen it selling for $80 so grabbed it. Same thing, Not sealed. Makes me very suspicious how he can even sell it for $20. Today i really need bloom nutes so i go get em and what do you know. Not sealed and visibly different levels of produ…

My first post. Gday happy campers. Part time smoker and outdoor grower I'm pretty much a hermit so I dont know a lot of people with seeds so I grow when I can score them This season I managed to find a few so in they went. One bitch turned Hermie on me but only the bottom branches I have found only a couple of seeds in the crown so I hope it is still a good smoke, It bloody smells delicious. It also pollinated a smaller female growing next to it. What would I expect to get from her seeds? Thanks heaps. Hermie Another small bitch. Not very productive though How do you like the fence between my plant and the neighbour's yard, not very discrete ay..

I'm trying to put together a Co2 generator. Have tried all the models on youtube, all being : 6 x cups warm water, 3/4 cup sugar, 1 x teaspoon yeast, all I can get out of it is 2 days and it's all over. On youtube the same recipe keeps going for around 2 weeks. The yeast I'm using is baker's yeast. I do it all at room temperature. A couple of times it started off bubbling like it was boiling, slowed down within a day, by the next it was dead. What am I doing wrong? Cheers

You don't need a degree in chemistry to understand the basics needed in creating your own fertiliser mixes. In this post I'll try and run through everything you need to know to create specific nutrient mixes, and I'll do my best to KISS. Inorganic salts (nutrients) are a combination of (positive) cations, and (negative) anions. Cations have a positive charge, and are nutrients such as Potassium (P+), Ammonium (NH4+), Calcium (Ca2+), Magnesium (Mg2+) and Iron (Fe2+). Anions have a negative charge, and are nutrients such as Nitrate (NO3-), Sulfate (SO42-), Phosphate (PO42-) and Chloride (Cl-). In life, things must maintain a neutral charge, meaning that you can't h…
