I have a few questions on Auto's..I'm running 20 hours on 4 off for lighting is that the best lighting cycle from start to finish? Are Auto's heavy or light feeders? Would I be best to run fluro during veg and then swap to HPS or just run HPS the whole grow? Any help would be greatly appreciated cheers Buzz. P.S. tried to send shroomyshroom a this message and failed

Out of curiosity I will be putting one of my blueberry clones straight into 12/12 just to see what it does really. I was wondering if anyone can recommend what size pot I should use? I was thinking just a little 100mm pot but maybe that would be too small? I don't expect it will grow much roots though going straight to 12/12. They are currently in those small rockwool cubes and are just showing roots. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Naycha

Hey all, just wondering if anyone has tried the following technique and had any luck, ill start by explaining my set-up. I'm currently using 3 x 600w Hps covering an area 1.2m x 2.4m, the plants are growing in a self built flood and drain set-up in clay pebbles. Im just about to go into flowering and here comes the dilemma, Ive been considering (as i have only 2 months left untill i move) wether to try an 8/16 (light:dark) system, where by i rotate the plants, so that out of my 24 there are always 8 in the light room, and 16 in the dark room, changing over every 8 hours, sorry if thats confusing, . therefore essentially using 1.8kw of electricity to the equivalent of 3…

hi all, just wondering if anyone knows if its possible to find a way to make my bud tighter. the strain is not known for produceing very tight buds, they are still very healthy and of good size but im hoping just to tighten them up a little. i've been told that if i reduce the light by a couple of hours during the last week or so of the cycle, that it would somehow trigger the bud to tighten up. does anyone know if this true or just the ramblings of a mad man ??

Is there any certain time during the life of a plant that it is best to take clones? I was hoping that when i harvest my girls, i'd be able to take clones at the same time? Is this possible, at this time? Thanks, Melb

Hi guys, My plant in my grow cabinet is ready to go to flowering - I have been running my light (400 watt son t agro) 24 hours as it was a cheaper way of maintaining a good temp in the cabinet (Im in Melbourne) and now I want to change to the 12 hour cycle. My question is, should I do this gradually (ie 1 hr, then 2, 3.. etc to 12) or will the plant be ok if I switch straight to a 12 hour light cycle? cheers, Morphine34

as most of you guys may have seen my previous posts im sure youre aware that im very much a novice at this point, so please understand if i sound like the dopiest focker on earth when ask "is it ok to remove some of the larger leaves off the plant to allow more light to filter through the plant??" im in my third week of flower and a lot of the lower bud sites seem to be getting shaded by the larger leaves, one guy told me the leaves are needed by the plant to help in the photosynthesis process, is that correct?? thanks guys
