Hi guys and gals I'm about to start a DWC scrog, ( my first hydro grow ) I'm using a large (80Lt) container, 400w hps, plenty of air, planning on 4 plants, if all 4 of the clones I was given survive, mate gave them to me yesterday I put them in a home made humidi crib and they seem to be doing well (at least to me) they are in rockwool cubes and under 2 x 20w cfl globes 24 hrs , a couple of them wilted for an hour or so, but all are "up" and looking good now after 24 hrs in the box. Q1: at the moment they are in rockwool, my plan was to grow in clay pellets... whats the strategy for getting them out of the rockwool cubes and getting them into the exp…

my question is, when you wish to turn from veg into buding, how often should the timer be set for watering, i know plants dont drink much during their nighttime(lightsoff) however im very unsure on how often i should be watering during lights off and ON while in buding, atm in veg i have it watering 10minutes every 2hours. if my rambling has lost you, in simple terms ------- IN BUD STAGE WITH "EXPANDED CLAY" "how often would you water during lights OFF" and "how often would you water during lights ON" ------- keeping in mind this is a recyl system in expanded clay, ive had people telling me to run recyl system 24/7. but that sounds completely stupid to me, it'll d…

Hey guys and gals, My next grow is DWC, 2 plants under 400W HPS. Same cabinet is the first one i ever grew in and nothing has changed about it. The dimensions are 1.8m(height) x 1m(length) x 60cm(depth). Exhaust fan is 250mm at top with a blowing fan down the bottom. Just waiting on clones and hopefully should be here tomorrow or thursday. Will get another cheap digi cam and put some photos up. Thanks, Kel.

G'day, I was at bunnings today, and was looking at the rooting products . Came across "Yates Clonex, purple rooting gel", looked on the label, and its Growth technologie's stuff. Cost $6.50 and from what I can tell is the same as the stuff in the hydro shop.... :scratchin

Hi. Ive never grown marijuana and im just wondering what the laws are regarding it. Are you allowed to have a certain limit of lights/plants growing in your house? Including that theres no evidence of 'dealing' and you have no criminal record. Thx for any help.

Hey guys, Been away for a few months, my mum passed away and was just looking after property, business etc. Back in Melbourne now and ready to grow asap. I have sold all my equipment before i went up there, so have to get it all again now. Looking at a bigger grow this time, same DWC style grow but maybe with 2 600W lights and a 400W light. Not sure on how many plants this time around though, but more than 4. Will keep in touch as i rebuild from scratch.

Hi gang, I am using an autopot system and am now going into the flowering stage. :thumbsup I bought some Manutec Bloom Booster and was wondering how much I should use. The box says 5g per 5 litres, but I guess that is for general garden use, not hydroponic use. Any and all feedback about how to get the biggest flowers is appreciated.

Howdy, I have been slowly getting all my gear together for my little stealth setup that'll be operational soon. Initially I was planning on using a regular old recirculating system, but after realising that I don't have all that much space to play with, I have decided to go with the DWC method instead. I'm just after some pointers on things to watch out for using this method, as it seems it's a bit harder to get right than other methods. I have read heaps on this site and others about various DWC setups but they never seem the same, I guess I just want to know where the heck I should start. Any help greatly appreciated.

I am trying Canna Coco and their related products for the first time. I was wondering if anyone else has used these and what schedual they used for feeding. I have the chart for mix ratios but not for frequency of feeding. It is very dry where I live and I need to water every other day, I am worried that feeding that often is too much (?) Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks The Mountain Man :whistling sorry, I posted this to hydro when it should have gone to indoor....

Anyone know where I can get hold of some 6" diameter plastic horse shoe drippers ? I tried a few hydro shops and they only have big ones to suit five gallon drum size, I want them for the top of 9" netpots. I can make some using copper tube but I'm not sure if this is a good idea in a hydro system. :scratchin
