QUOTE=Sandgrouper;10140855]Old sckool works for me. I have the reverse happening. I never thought off guerrilla growing till I moved. Now when I go for a walk I keep checking places out. This growing thing just gets in your brain.
Yea all you need is a summer like the last one and you will be set. Only prob here is places where it is not found, so many people walking, shooting, trekking, kids out 'looking' - tell ya these autos are just the gorilla answer I reckon.

Just scoping at the moment. Have a nephew who used to live out here giving me some local info. I am talking one or two plants max. Its more the getting out into the wilderness thing that appeals. Thinking of one of the gnome auto's maybe. Its just an idea at the mo.

So Ive decided to grow using the scrog method using a 70w hps bulb and 1 white widow plant,my measurements are 35x35x80cm(suggest different size if more suited) and the question I have is,i know the net has to be 20cm above the plant pot,the bulb has to be 20cm above the net. So how do I start to grow a feminized seed? Should I ignore the screen at the start and keep the light 4 inch distance away from the plant until I change it to flowering stage and start training them? Also,how far should the 70w bulb be away from the net during flowering stage? And lastly :D What size pots should I start with and do I need to change them later on ?
ok, id say fuck the screen for now lol that can be added later.lets start off by germinating that seed mate...place seed on moistened kitchen towel role thing, fold over then place in a zip lock bag n partly close it then put it in a dark place like a shoe box or drawer then wait a day or 2 then place tap root(little white yolk that comes out of seed) facing down about half an inch into soil, lightly cover n water...OR if ur more patient...seed--> soil--> job done both work id prefer the straight to soil as your less likely to disturb the taproot. Smallest pot you can find will do U mate just don't start her in a 6ltr or something like that as you want the plant to develops the best rootmass possible... as for the light keep it as close as you can...place ur had directly under the bulb n use that as a reference point..if it burns ur hand it will burn ur plant n make sure U have a little fan pointing over the canopy so that it cools the bulb that bit n strengthens the little ladies stems n lower risks of PM n mold. ..im sure others will pop in n add to this.

first pop the seed in a small container and allow the root to develop, a 4inch pot or something, then when time comes pot that into the final pot, 10 litre or bigger, at this stage you plant will only be about 5/6 inch tall, so then once in final pot, veg until the net is filled to about 60% then flip to flower and allow to fill out the rest and bud, you would want about 10/12 inchs above the pot ideally but 7/8 inchs will do, as for the light being 4 inchs above the plant, you might want to re think that, even tho its only 70w hey can get hot, go for a distance that is cool enough on the back of you had as you move it away from the bulb, say 10 or so inchs at a guess... hope this helps ... and fuck that grass city shit... hahahahaha....

Pretty much the same as everyone else. I use a rockwall prop plug - wet it with rooting compound let her sprout, then after a week or so depending on how she looks straight into the final pot.

After much thought and running out of smoke and the brain showing its face again I had a go at getting all set up today. Prop tent in, main tent in, filter in, just need the cooltube and some connecting rings as I forgot the buggers agh!!

No way I can fit a third tent in.

Set up the scrog screen and put the GHE waterfarm in the tent, put two in pushed to the back leaves enough room at the front for another. So I may still get some perpetual growing going on, with autos or I reckon can veg up in the DP90 do some LST in there before the scrog and see how that goes. Far more room in the DP90 then expected, and can fit a GHE in there so maybe just maybe it will come together.

germing as we speak, the seedlings have begun to show signs of growth,(finally) so there comeing on at least, i`d say out of the six, four look decent enough...

one of the two girls are brilliant bar some minor clawing and a slight yellowing on two or three lower leaves, the other is still border line like its wanting to hermi or something, it just has that weird flower development, and the formation of the main cola and has begun to slightly lean to one side....

i`m ot of stock too and out till these harvest so kicking myself that i`ve begun hazes as they take forever, the end result is worth i but i should have ossed in an early finisher aswell for good measure...
