raising seeds 1 2

Hey guys 'n gals Bit of back story... I was given ~200 seeds by a mate back in early 2010 i acquired another 50 or so random seeds from other mates. I've been using over the past year, i've kept them in a cupboard in zip lock back with a gel bag. So last weekend I ran the seeds over some fine sand paper to scratch the husk and dropped them into a glass of water for about ~15 hours Then planted them into some jiffy pellets, placed the pellets into a grow tray placed about 5mm high water in the tray, placed the tray on a heat mat. Now i did have the humidity cover on for a day or two, but it's been off for a good 4 days now. So it's been 7 days since I've planted …

The elusive bonzai? 1 2 3

Have I unintentionally created a bonzai-style plant here? She would be about 11 or 12 weeks from germination and just slightly taller than an average lighter... Using a diluted Seasol? solution to water and feed her. 20W Fluorescent light about 3-4 inches above the tip. Started germination outside, then after 2 weeks I brought her inside. Does anybody know why she is so short and undeveloped? Cheers, Sm0k3r

So, it's been 7 days since i took a few cuttings from a mates white widow. From what i've read on this site i got to them a little late, as they had already started to flower pretty heavily, but figured i'd have a crack, with nothing really to lose. Me and the mate tried to follow most of the instructions i'd seen here - used a nice new stanley, distilled water, some clonex, and then put them into some seed-raising potting mix (didn't get rockwool this time). Was a little concerned when the leaves started to go brown, however read somewhere here that that was a good sign. Problem is there is 3 in the pot, and if they do sprout roots i don't want them all becoming ta…

A lot of people have trouble with clones in rockwool until they have done a few batches. I sure did. My first attempts suffered from stem rot and slow rooting. Here's a photoessay on a batch of clones as they are done around here now that I've had a bit of practise getting consistent results. One of the biggest problems with rockwool cubes is that they can hold a LOT of water. If cubes are too wet, rooting will be slow or stem rot may set in. Think damp, never wet or saturated. A dry 40mm cube weighs 5g. A properly "damp" cube weighs 25-30g. Heavier than that is too wet. Remove water from overwet cubes by shaking excess out into a bucket with a snap of the wrist. A sala…

Hi all I have read near everything on these forums about cloning and it seems reasonabily easy I have a nice female I wish to clone, but it will be a outdoor clone, I intend in building a small greenhouse to do it in, but it will be comming into the winter months. Will the length of day affect the clones? and make them want to start budding? Can I just cut them dip in cutting powder and place in nice dirt then water normally? most cloning seems to be done indoors. Thanks in advance for any help

It's been like this for a few days now and I don't know what it's doing, if anything at all. The big round sides are not the seed shell, but weird looking leaf like things. The inside are green, the outside is brown and is slowly turning green. Inside are very miniature leafs which are slowly growing but just barely. I must admit this isn't what I thought a seedling would look like. The round leaf looking things on the side I've not seen before on anyone elses grows (this is my first attempt.) I have this under a light @ ~25C temp on 18/6 with a fan running on the side. I water it when the top soil gets dry which is every 2nd day or so. This is taking ages to…

Hi, i was thinking about getting some Auto seeds but i dont want to have to keep buying seeds everytime i want to grow, as its my understanding that you cant get clones as they will flower (correct?) so they only way not to keep spending money on seeds is to grow a male ect correct?

I have recently collected some viable pollen from good strain and wish to pollinate only a couple of branches on my girls i was going to put 1/4 teaspoon of pollen in a couple of paper bags select some branches bag em and shake em leave overnite and carefully remove them hoping to only pollinate said branches. Will this effect overall yield of plant? 30 days at least for viable seeds? I realise some residual pollinating might occur i have clones ready to go but wish to have some seed as i will be using different strain next run and really want to keep this strain going with "fresh seed" any opinions or experience appreciated cheers TD
