Tap water VS Puratap water I tested the ec of my tap water at about 850 and I was far more confused when I compared this with my puratap twin filtered water that tested at about 900. I thought that puratap filtered water would have read far less than straight tap water. I then compared this to a bottle of spring water that was about 100. I’m just wondering if any of you have any suggestions on what the f is going on. I was hoping that the Puratap water would have been better quality. At the least I would have thought the puratap water would have filtered out some dissolved solids. I wanted to increase my additives, but with the water so high it’s hard to fit everything i…

Hi all, had some problems recently with a few bugs. At first i found some small midgy like bugs at the soil level but on investigation I figured its gotta be scarib fly so Have used "neemtech insecticidal pottasium soap" (anyone used it?) and another time i found some webs so figuring its spidermite. Used dead red for that and seems to work. Any suggestions guys on anything else? Think I drowned the last one.....my BAD!! Gotta go will check in later with maybe some more thoughts....

PLEASE! I need your help! I have discovered yet ANOTHER problem in my grow room. Does anyone have any ideas? I have been told this is a nitrogen deficiency which I have attempted to correct but have no knowledge of specific products available in AU. I was also told it was a trace elements deficiency and have applied Richgro Trace Elements with no results. I was also told it was a blight, but this was by someone who only had my description, but no piccies. I have (THANKS to PainMan's timely and MOST helpful advice!) solved my fungas gnat problem with neem oil, but this has been my ONLY success, thus far! I am very ill and the stress of my first grow in Australia is liter…

hey ppl, sorry its my first serious grow so experiencing problems for the first time. just last night i realised a bug flying around in my grow room, i only noticed 1 but could be 2 of them in there, the bug is very small and mainly hangs around at the base of the plant the bug sort of resembles a midge. im not 100% sure of how many are in there or the breed of bug are there any safe pesticides i can use as a precaution? i am mid way through flowering so i assume i would be a little more limited to what i could use? thanks fellas

THE PROBLEM I have fungus gnats. They are killing the plants that keep my spouse and I in the medication we need to survive and the battle is pissing me off. I could really use help from a person who has successfully killed the fuckers. A person who has killed off a serious infestation using organic methods...not a person who is guessing or passing on second hand information. COMPLICATIONS We cannot use spays to do this. Everybody in the family is made sick from sprays. My partner is at serious risk from them. All the adults in the the house all have environmental illness problems (the kids probably have genes that predispose them) with very bad reactions to th…

hey guys, not too worried, just want to understand? this girl has gotten progressively worse over the past couple of days although she is still growing - just want to know what this problem looks like? i use canna nutes at recommended strength and don't think it's a resevoir problem because 3 other plants are happy as larry, but what i did with these girls was had them planted in with some guys. i didn't know their sex and till i found out, i had them in the same pot with males, so all i did was uproot the males. i thought maybe having dead male roots in the same pot could be a cause? there couldn't be too many tho. other than that? not heat stress, there's plenty of ve…

I don't get it I should be harvesting her this weekend (2 days) and she was looking smelling AND feeling great. Rock hard nuggets and sweet pungent smell! I aquired a new grow tent on monday which meant some changes to environment: -Drop in temp -More room -Better lighting all round I think -And fresher air! She got a small feed on Monday, she has been on Ripen since Wednesday 5 days before the new cupboard, and I was letting her soak up everything she had in her pot. So today I go to give her one of her last waters and the bud is all FLUFFY!, I checked yesterday and she was rock solid! Please if anyone knows whats happenning to my poor baby I would appreciate …

Hi, ill get right to it. Plant stats: Strain: Unknown, but has a 50/50 sativa/indica look. Medium: 100% coco Nutriments: Canna coco A/B, at 500ppm every second day, runoff usually comes out 100 ppm lower than input. Ph: 5.8-6.0 but unsure because the use of a PIECE OF SHIT ezitools Ph meter(the red ones), stay away from these, don't buy one, ever. Age: Clone, 5 weeks. Lighting schedule: 20/4 Doing a flush right now to get the medium as clean as possible, then going to start it on 800-900ppm see if that helps. So here are some pics: So thinking magnesium/calcium problem or could be a ph prob perhaps. Much appreciation for any help, cheers.

hi guys got through my nute problems in veg ok with a bit of tweeking , seemed to like low nute levels of 600-800ppm what should I be aiming for in flower , were now 1 week into flower , again about 700ppm 2 part canna flower nutes. at week 3 id like to do a run of pk-13/14 should I start my flower nutes low like I am and build slowly as buds develop or put them up more from the start now the plants are bigger I think they can take a bit more nute levels but I dont want to over do it as this system and plants have proved sensitive to nute levels pk-13/14 previously I had great results running half strength for the rest of the grow until flush , what is ever…
