Hi, I have some pretty awesome looking clones ready to go into the grow room shortly. Problem is they have grown quite tall about 350mm. They have really nice tops but not much down the stem. How far down can i plant the stem when i do a transplant? If i could go down 60 to 70mm that would be great, but is that going to be ok, or will they get stem rot? Or does someone have another suggie? Cheers.

Yo, just a quick question. Is there any benefit from using a spray bottle of water to mist the leaves of a vegetative plant, whenever you water it? I understand it helps with newly sprouted plants to stop them from drying out but is there any pro's or cons to spraying in the next stage of growing. or is it better to just pour water on the soil.

I'm doing my first indoor and liked the idea of 5 hours less light on the girls so jumped straight into the 12-1 system. It seems to be humming along really well but as it's my first indoor I don't know if I could have achieved quicker results with the standard 18-6. so if you could let me know if you've tried it and is it as good as 18-6 thanks Puks

hey guys so I'm doing my first grow and was originally going to do it all old school, veg for however long after my clones rooted, then flower, etc. I'm thinking now switching them (today, 2 weeks into veg) to flower for 5-6 weeks then harvest. ill be doing more clones in the future and heres the plan: for quicker harvests of more smaller plants, 15-20 clones under 100w or similar clf for one week 24/0 after rooting to stabilize then switching those under 2 x 400 hps 12/12 (separate grow areas) for 6 weeks then harvest get clones every 3 weeks to rotate into cfl. my hope is to harvest at least monthly if not every 3 weeks or so I have white widow and strawberry cou…

I can notice good growth when there in the tent with the HPS b…

Was just wondering when you guys back off yer nutes? Do you back them off? Im currently on 2.1 ec at week 4. Using potash and bloom nutes. They are fast becoming the biggest nugs ive grown by far, im hoping they dont end up airy but everything seems to be fine heat, exhuast and RH wise. Was just wondering what week, if you do it, do you back the nutes off? How much do you drop ec wise? Im also going to use pk13/14 at week 6 and drop the potash from then on till end. Hope this makes sense, would really dig some input to help make this a real cracker of a grow. Cheers.

Hi again everyone!! I'm back I haven't posted for over a year, in that time I have had a few successful grows in my RDWC Cabinet setup But I haven't been using the scrog screen or external reservoir until now. I have made some additions to the system, I have added a water chiller to keep my nutrient a consistent 22C, a more powerful submersible pump to push the nutrient up through the chiller and into the growing reservoir and an additional air pump to oxygenate the nutrient in the external reservoir. ...So basically I'm back to leech some more valuable advice and feedback from the infinite wisdom of Ozstoners!!! Everything is running at optimum temps and is fair…
