Hi there, I read that seedlings should be protected from direct light untill they are about 2 weeks old? what is the purpose of this?, isn't more light always better?

Howdy Y'all.. I have a question regarding tents. I am considering buying a tent for the first time, as I inevitably have trouble with light leakage in my room... However, after doing some research I came across a tent that claimed to be the darkest tent available... This caused me to put my finger on my chin and say "hmmmm" , does anyone have trouble with light leaks in their tents? or is this just marketing BS.. Cheers Puka

I came across this post by backcountry 2009, thought it might be of use to Aussie growers suffering from the stifling heat. Here: .icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=128405 detail: icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=108418

Hi all About 8 weeks ago i didn't even know what a scrog was, but having done a bit of research am attempting it on my first ever grow. My gut feel is that my little bit of knowledge is probably dangerous in this situation and I will most likely regret my decision. So wanted to show you all how it looks and get some advice as to whether I should bother or is it too complex for a newb? Strain: train wreck by greenhouse seeds Age: about 6 weeks (grown from seed) Thanks P.S can't seem to attach pics via iPad, will do so in the morning on my laptop.

Hey yous, I'm looking for ideas for a stealthly, low-profile way to get one or two plants on my backyard veranda. They'd have to stand up to casual scrutiny, but I understand there isn't much that can withstand close inspection. I'm living in a suburb where its hard to locate good guerilla sites, and I don't have the time to do a lot of looking (young kids eat up time like you wouldn't believe, and there's no way my wife is going to accept me popping out for hours just to look at the ground). So, I'm thinking of how to do this with things like creative trellising, fake clip-on flowers etc. It seems there must be some material here, but since OzStoners has been g…

hey guys so i just thought id throw some pics up of my first LST grow in another country. The pics are taken outside but its an indoor grow, although in the very beginning i was growing them outside but then decided to move them indoors. and the next pics of them are outside because of a flush i was doing and thought might as well get some pics... Ok so since this is my first lst grow im not to sure what to think of them, one of them is doing much better than the others and it might be a week older than the others so thats why the difference in size. but i have been growing these 3 sativas(exact strain unknown) for about 3 and half months! iv also been tipping them ever…

I have a question to anyone who has grown the strain holy grail kush, very very good strain. The story goes in 09 high times cannabis OQ 18 won the cup. The next year kosher kush won the year after that they crossed them to make holy grail kush which won in 11. They say to use new to newer carbon filters and its potency, smell, taste and yield is nothing to compare to. Any info would be appreciated since I have not talked or heard anyone with this strain cheers.

Ok now I have read a few pages on Scog. Is is really worth it. Really interested in the concept of it. I am normal just a veg for 4 - 5 weeks. Top plant at 2 weeks veg. And LST for few weeks till shut down. How much veg time do you need to fill a 1 x 1 square meter screen before flower. Few beans say 500g per square meter. But I get that with me normal veg time. Does it increase yeild, and is it worth the extra time.

G'day everyone, I've just been to the electric calculator to get an idea how much it costs to run my 1600w set up, with a bit of a shock :| Does anyone run a similair set up to mine? I'm also running a 6" centrifugal 18 hours of the day at the moment. If yes, then what are the average prices of your bills when growing? Thanks!

Hi all I have had a few questions reguarding the pots I use, so I decided since the tent is empty and pots too I would take some photos for all to see. I got these pots from me local hydro shop. I havent seen them around on the net, sure they are there, haven't really looked. Cost me about $100 for the 3 pots, 3 grid inserts, 3 stands & 3 pot socks. Running this system elininates the need for 2 pots by having the grid in the bottom and drain below it. In that space allows a dry area after the run off has passed through for all the benificial bacteria and goodies like that to brew and receive oxygen aswell as the roots. Run off and roots easily pass through the mesh …

Hello again everyone, it's been a while between posts! I finally decided on buying a Growlush grow tent 1.95x1.95x2m. For lighting I went with one 600w hps and one 1000w mh lamp, I will use this for veg, then when flowering comes I will use 600w mh and 1000w hps. Ventilation will be carried out through a 6" centrifugal fan, which I plan on having outside the tent, connected with the 6" carbon filter, further ducting it directly outside. I haven't purchased a silencer yet, I wasn't sure how loud the fan would actually be, can anyone confirm thier effectiveness? I've got 6 feminized Pure Kush seeds germinating presently, the description along side them says that …
