I have read two different ways of determining nutrient strength using a Truncheon or any meter and I want to know which one is correct. Most nutrient labels say that the nutrient strength shown is in addition to the water ppm. In other words, my water is 210 ppm if I want a ppm of 1200, do I mix it to that and add to the water. That would give me 1410 ppm or do I mix nutes to 1000, that would give me 1210 ppm. I read an article that said to deduct 50% of the water reading from the total ppm reading. In other words, if I mixed to 1200 and deducted 50% water reading, I would have 1095 ppm. I find this confusing as I am using low strength nutes (1/4 strength) on my 50…

Hi all. This is my first attempt at a grow. I just dropped a seed into a pot that my little xmas tree came in and it's sprouted. I had it sitting on the balcony (i live in an apartment in the city) but it didn't get sun consistently. it's now sitting in my cupboard with a small 16 watt flouro providing light set on timer with 16 hrs on 8 off. Does this sound like it may work? I've also bought some yates multi nutrient plant food which i haven't added yet. i was going to leave it a couple of weeks before adding a very diluted mix. once again, will this work or am i on the wrong track? any help will be appreciated. cheers.

After 4 week i,ve realized my order from planet skunk isnt coming. There response is there is nothing they can do about it.... $130 gone.... My other order to HGS was posted with someone elses order( 2 orders and payments with the instructions) in the same express post envelope, within 7 days they received there seeds and i have been told by them that there was only one order in the envelope so they only sent out one order. Bullshit! $60US gone.... ordered from the 2 companies expecting to get 1 of them. Do you think i can contact consumer affairs and put my complaints to them.... goodluck!

Hey guys is it possible to flower outdoors during spring, or are the days starting to get too long? I dont want to have to wait and have plants outdoors til april/may next year. Does anyone have any ideas on how i can force outdoor flowering late in spring? ie: moving plants to complete darkness early in the afternoon? Sorry if these are silly questions, but I have no experience with plants outdoors. Any help or ideas would be welcomed Thanks in advance!!!

I'm going to be using compact fluorescent lights for the entire thing. Yes.. I know.. I know... I SHOULD get a HPS light so i can penetrate the bud and blah. It's gonna be light an airy yehh. okay, also, now don't shoot me... I'm not gonna be really having any ventilation either.. The most I could do is put a fan inside of it and leave afew openings to let air pass through. Thing is I have never grown before (and only ever smoked once) and I am on an extremely tight budget. You all know the higher I will get the more I will want better buds and the more I'll want to purchase a better setup in the future. So what I need from you guys is help on getting this set up. I a…

Hey guys, i was looking this up and was wondering if there are any noticeable differences between indica and sativa strains when it comes to early growth? im growing bagseed and the plants are a month old, grown from seeds. im wanting to know if they are either indica or sativa or hybrid, etc, but im not sure what to look for. Are there characteristics showing during early growth that can help us tell them apart? p.s. i know the differences between them when theyre older, taller, thinner, branchier plants and leaves for sativa, etc.
