hey every one! well my current seeds just sprouted in a 100% coco pot, and i want to put them in a slightly bigger bot soon ready for the veg stage. Now for the mix, i was thinking. coco and perlite?? is that good? what should be added? and aslo what neutriants should i buy for the Veg stage? and how often should i feed them. i have seen cana a and cana b at bunnings and remember it from some growing video? is it good? Thanks, any help is much appreciated !

So i got my hands on some auto's put some out and have been looking after them consistently apart from one to which i planted in rock hard clay have not watered it have not done anything to it and its Rockin along has anyone else seen or done this before.And do auto's take more time outdoor than indoor to reach flowering stage and is topping auto's a good idea thx

Something is eating my plants. They're about hip height, but something has decided to tip them, more than once. I've tried dog shit and I always wee on it when I check them. A fence is impractical in this situation, even chicken wire. I've heard of old engine oil etc. any ideas!? Thanks.

Heya all stumbled across a well maintained guide for outdoor light times for all of australia. http://members.iinet.net.au/~jacob/risesetaust.html it has a whole bunch of info eg. ATS starts Astronomical Twilight, NTS starts Nautical Twilight, CTS is Civil Twilight Start, SR is Sunrise, SS is Sunset, CTE is Civil Twilight End, NTE ends Nautical Twilight, ATE ends Astronomical Twilight M'day is midday (sun at highest point) Len is length of day (SR to SS) check it out should be very helpful for outdoor growers!

Hi all, had a handfull of bag seed so thought i'd try my first grow. the plants are 6-7 weeks old now but a couple of plants have brown patches on some of the leaves, the others are fine though, is this nutrient burn from using too much fertiliser? I used a weak dose of soluble all purpose plant food once every two weeks but 2 weeks ago started using it once every week, water once everyday at night and the plants have spent their entire life outdoors. Are they looking generally healthy? They are all on average only 10-11cm tall but quite bushy, should they be taller? when should I be putting them in the ground? Thanks in advance!

Can someone please tell me what is wrong with this plant? Only new to growing!

Hi all, Getting ready to start my second grow. Its been two years since the last grow, (ended up with enough to last two years), and relations with the neighbours have broken down. They are higher than us and can see straight into our backyard if they look over. Any tips for hiding a couple of plants without loosing too much light!

hey guys, this year will be my first grow ever! i live in Melbourne and the weather still hasnt seemed to pickup like i thought it would, but i germinated my seedlings about 3 weeks ago in jiffy pots and all three of them sprouted. i found my seeds in my buds so im not expecting any flash yields or wonders, i just wanna grasp the basics so i can eventually get nicer grows over the years. I have many questions and all answers are greatly appreciated! It seems my plants are growing rather slowly (ill have pics up soon) and also as if insects may have gotten to them? ive been putting them outside in the morning and back inside by late afternoon As i will be moving my grow…

Has anyone had any success drying buds outdoors ? If mother nature permIts i may have a fair amount of bud to dry at harvest next year and dont really want to bring that sort of quantity around my place. I plan on drying and sealing up the goods in food vacume and storing out there until required . Possible ? Or am i asking for trouble with mould? Cheers guys looking forward to some ideas

Hi all, I'm pretty new to this and have been reading up on a few things and searching through the site. Mostly finding guides on hydro set ups. I'm Perth based and want to start up a couple of plants outdoors. Looking at getting some beans from bonza. From what I understand, this time of year and my limited knowledge it may be best to use autos? (please correct me if I am wrong). I was thinking of trying a few different strains, but mainly white widow as I have heard it is quite hardy. Can anyone suggest, or point me in the direction of a good effective and cheap soil mix I can buy or make up? If anyone has any tutorials or can point me in the direction, I pretty …

Hi All Looking forward to my second ever grow. I successfully grew a nice Trainwreck last summer in my back yard. Was an awesome feeling to finally smoke it! Have everyone on this forum to thank for the end result. This year I want to try Bubblefuck but they only come in regular seeds. As I don't have an indoor set up I am trying to think of a way to determine sex as early as possible. Do you think putting a bin or something over them to force flowering is a good idea? My only other plan is to try and get a couple of clones and force them to flower. I just don't want to end up with too many plants at one time. I'm a respectable family man Cheers
