Hey everyone I am just about to start my first DWC ScrOG Cabinet grow but before I start I want to try and sort out how to use all my additives and shit that I have bought. I want to try and germ my seeds by soaking them in a solution of GT Oxyplus. I have found numerous posts and info regarding the dosing for 3%, the old 35% and the supposed new 17.5% H2O2 concentration. I had assumed that my bottle would be the 17.5% but I just read the label and it says 50% H2O2!!!! I tried to take a photo but the print is quite small and my camera must be too old for the job! It says on the directions that 2mls per 10 litres should be added to the nutrient solution every 2-3 da…

Well, a grower from dcfonline (a Danish grow forum where i'm active) have successfully germinated seeds in Polyester sponges (for cleaning) instead of rockwool cubes! http://dcfonline.dk/index.php?name=PNphpBB...ight=alternativ So now i'm trying to make clones in the same media. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y26/Terkel/svamp.jpg I've made 20 cuttings and placed them in polyester sponges, and placed them in my humidity dome. i'm using rooting hormone as normal. I will make a feedback on the results of my experiment as soon as they are rooting.

Hi Guys, I am thinking of putting together a Ebb and flow setup together like AL B FUCT ( what a great grower!) but I was tossing up what medium to use, I noticed that he grows his plants in pots but I dont understand how they are watered, does the water just rise up through the bottom of the pots???.....anyone know?? because I cant seem to figure this out I was thinking of flowering my clones in rockwool or perlite?, what do you guys think?...any suggestions/experinces you would care to share?

So i bought the aerogarden to give it a go, if fail i will just grow tomatoes and strawberries or some shit, doesnt worry me.. Though what alot of people i believe are doin wrong is that they arnt trimming when the growth gets too high, the light needs to get to the whole plant, if it only gets the top of the plant obviously you wont get the results you expect. I used to grow outdoor plants and got it pretty good, since moving to a small apartment i thought id give it a go, i believe cutting the top and making it grow outward, or using weights to bend it down is the key to aerogarden growth. Its obvious this system isnt going to grow the amount most people want, but i…

I have an aeroponic setup growing white rhino and orange bud this morning i noticed little pods at the fist nodes under the flower heads of one plant, it is only the second week of flower, its an Amazon 32 pot and im using Dutch Hydro coco which isnt available in the shops yet it is a lab sample, i have recently give them a light spray of superbud every 2 days when lights are out. They were all grown from clones from healthy mothers so i have killed it off straight away taking no precautions, my grow room is a walk in wardrobe 4ft square, wall to wall mylar, light sealed using a 400 watt cooltube vented out through a carbon filter, 2 oscillating fans, an extra fan mounted…

Eikel's Water-Cloning Technique 1 2
by Guest Eikel- 16 replies
- 9.5k views
Hey Guys, Well I introduced you to my experiments in water-cloning with this thread. I have continued my experimentation and have refined the process down to an easy to follow, quick procedure. People using this technique will find much faster rootings and far lower failure rates than with "normal" cloning methods such as rockwool/cloning-gel/direct-to-medium techniques. The essential concept is that the inital formation of roots in rockwool clones tends to take the longest time out of each stage of the process, wouldn't it be nice to be able to have those "micro-roots" come out almost instantaneously so your clone has approximately a 7-10 day headstart? You can …

just after a little advice...i'm currently using clear plastic tubs in my hydro cupboard, and I was advised that the clear tubs may let the root system be exposed to too much light. I'm using a 400 and perlite with two clear tubs....can anyone offer me any insight as to whether this is going to adversely affect my plants? thanks.
