Ive decided to go automated and in the past I never mixed up more than 5ltrs at a time so only worried about PH. However, Ive bought a 100ltr resi for my new room so Im guna need to be abit more involved. Ive seen most people giving PPM values but most nutrients give EC. so what sort of meter is best for what i need to do?

Hi Guys, In the last few weeks of constant rainfall here on the north coast I have noticed the humidty in my grow room climb from 60% to 80% and now I am starting to get mould in my grow room in the walls. I am saving up madly for a new centrifugal fan in the hope that better air flow will sort out the problem and I have a pedestal fan blowing over my plants at the moment but I cant seem to reduce the humidty ....have also decreased the watering schedule as well down to a bare minimum. Does anyone know any good methods to reduce humidity? maybe some of our friends up north in tropical Queensland or NT? I have heard that if you put a bowl of baking soda on the ground i…

*** Why not to use bug bombs *** Bug bombs are some times used by cannabis growers to get rid of various infestations. They should not be - full stop Why? Even if you believe with all your heart and mind that chemical companies never lie to us and that they are safe when used as directed (check on how Michael J Fox got his parkensons disease) they are not intended for use on anything that is to be put into the human body. Spraying bug bomb poisons on your cannabis and then smoking it is very very bad for you. People should not inhale burning pesticide or eat it either. In point of fact, the instructions on bug bombs (and other pesticides) say very plainly not to …

Hi Guys started growing from seed. drip irrigation. 1 x 15min (approx 1 drop per sec) Plants have been doing fine. just about week 4 from seed. Few days ago moved the plant under a 600w hps from fluro. few days later now plants look are bottom set are drooping almost touching the hydroton. top seems ok. Natrally most would say overwatered. but it doesnt get that much and its in rockwool which is in hydroton. any ideas peeps? also EC increased overnite from 1 to 1.2 so i added some water to bring it back down. doing a full res change this weekend. could that have caused it?

Hey Guys, I have three Kali Mists in a small growroom in a recirculating Bubbler system. Since the beggining, one of the plants showed a slower development and stained leaves. I quit trying to address the "problem" and accepted the idea that it could be a genetic issue with this particular plant. I´m saying this because I tryed almost everything and the three are sharing very similar situations: - same nutrients for all, as individual buckets are connected to the same central control-bucket; - same light - a 600w HPS bulb hanging without reflector in the middle of them; - same air circulation - I have already change their places with no noticeable effects. Kali Mi…

Hi, i was wondering if anyone could help me out. I started growing a plant a several months ago and it was my first time, i learned a lot of beginner lessons. I am now growing a second plant, this second plant looked interesting from the day it peaked out of the soil, the stem was purple and even now some over the leaves have a purplish color on the bottom. The plant has been growing incredibly quick, compared to it's sister. Now the problem is, it is a month old and contains 40 leaves, all of which are singles... not a single one has 3,5,7 or even 9.... people have been telling me it is because i am not giving it enough light but the leaves are a healthy green and se…

Hey guys, I've just started growing, and have run into a bit of trouble! I had these plants sitting in a pot outside since about December, they were fine. Last week I knocked up a grow box in an old freezer, and stuck the plants under a 250W HPS inside. See here for what I have built.. maybe you can see some problems with my box? The plants were already flowering while outside, although they hadn't grown or changed much for a few weeks. I have since put them under 24 hours of light, could this be the issue? Temps have been between 25-30 degrees inside, i think this is okay? I am watering the plants whenever they look a bit dry, usually twice a day, until i see a…

Aloha guys, i could really use some help. So i got an indoor op. going, they were in the dirt 7 days ago. a small bed with a primarily organic soil mix under a 1k hps, 4 strains: blue-widow, puna-tang, durban, and candyman each in a different section,,,puna and candyman are locals i think, anyway 35 plants were pinned LST and everything looked great and was jumping. I now have had 3 plants die and am worried bad. Im not sure what it is or was really, as the others look great and i dont know if these clones were just sick or weak. they got stem mold or something in which the very bottom part of the stem, right above and below the dirt, turns brown and easily falls apart, …

hey guys, here's the pics. they grew up in jiffy pots and were replanted 5 days ago? the jiffy's were soaked originally in half strength veg nutes, the coco they were transplanted into was soaked in full strength veg nutes and i started on full strength nutes straight away after transplanting. the yellowing leaf symptoms of the main plant shown in the pics started in the jiffy pot (they only got rhizotonic at full strength for seedlings). they are growing rapidly, but i'm worried about the particular one i took pics of.. i took a picture of all of them to show the one on the right side of the pic - the very tips of the leaves are curled down and yellow - is this over f…
