has anyone here tried budlink. The bottle says increases weight and bulk, helps nutrient uptake, strengthens plants, improves disease resistance andimproves cell integrity.It is added at the rate of 5mls per litre all the way through the growing cycle. Aparently silica is important to plant growth and will not stay in solution in undiluted nutes. it has to be added as a supplement made by hydroponic generations, a WA company

Hey all, I just got myself some h202 3% w/w from woolies. How strong is the oxyplus you get at the hydro store? How much of the 3% h202 do I use in a bubbler ( mL/litre ) ? Heres a pic of my northern girl mother plant at day 13 from arriving in the mail.

Hi guys, just waiting on some seeds to put down my first ever grow, got a 400watt HID, got a couple of pots, got some coconut palm hydro medium stuff and some nutients for the water. i have no idea how long it takes these little puppies to grow up big and strong. the closet is about 6ft tall, and im wondering when i can expect them to head? and at what point do you know to change the lights from 16 - 8 to 12 - 12? thanks again,

Hey fellas... i'm preparing for my first virgin grow. i've made my cupboard, equipped with intake & extraction fans, eye bolt & chain to hang light (which i'm getting tomorrow). The soil mix i've made comprises vermiculite, perlite, river pebbles, lava rock, styrofoam, and potting mix (about 35-40%). I have some nitrosol liquid feeder, which seems to have sufficient amounts of N, P & K. Is this mix sufficient for holding nutrients, for airation and drainage?? is there any nutrient solutions i should use instead of just home variety nitrosol?? any feedback or advice would be much appreciated. Thanks guys...

Hey all , Does anyone using dutchmaster nutes know anything bout this. I use the original formula and ive just bought new a + b bottles of "flower". However when i got home and looked at the old bottles ive noticed the graphics on the label are slightly different and the NPK ratio`s are slightly different to the new one`s WTF !! The ratio`s on the bottles ive been using are ; Flower A = 2 : 4 : 7 Flower B = 2 : 4 : 7 The new bottles ; Flower A = 2 : 0 : 2 Flower B = 1 : 8 : 12 The only difference is in the nitrogen but im wondering if one of these sets are old stock…

Hey Guys, I can't seem to grow any small plants, I've got three strains going at the moment; Bronzewhaler, Wonderberry and Jack Herer. I turned them down at 3 weeks when they were only 12 inches, now they're 4 foot after 5 weeks, much bigger than I wanted. Is it the Canna nutrients I'm using or are these strains known to grow huge. Any help would be appreciated. Cheers dwyndorf

Hey can anyone tell me If I can flush the plants by soaking the buds in water or anyother way? My mate decided that my crop was ready and pulled it, it had only been flushing for 24 hours. Unflushed weed almost always gives me headaces.

G'day, I saw some Thrive today at the shops, had a look on the back of the pack.. and I'm going to start using it as a foliar spray.. until I possibly get some Nitrozyme. The DutchFest nutes that I have are working brilliantly.. I'll stick with them for a few more grows, maybe get some other nutes after my first harvest and run two different nutes in the res's for the next grow. Anyway, I just wanted to know people's thoughts on using normal Thrive as a foliar spray. I guess it's just the high amount of NPK in the mix, and it also contains trace elements.. I think it's somewhere near 40% NPK in the Thrive: all purpose. I just saw Yate's indoor Thrive, and it looks pret…

Well just got my 1st grow underway, seeds sprouted after the 2nd day in an incubator and some potting mix, misted 2-3 times daily. Sitting about 3-4 ft away from my 400w hps right now. They are in little rectangular seedling trays and I don't want to keep them anymore than a week in there before I transplant them into proper 150 mm pots. I want to use some worm castings, pot power soil, dolomite lime, a small amount of verm and I'd like to use perlite for drainage but I can't find any, I have some pumice but i'm not sure if it will suffice. Pics will come soon
