when i did my hempy conversion (oh yeah ive done it now btw!) i just took the plants out of the pots, gave them a bit of a gentle shake to loosen off the soil and stuck them in my buckets. I didnt activly try and remove any soil to be honest, just a little shake to loosen up the root ball, did i...

Seems i stopped by just at the right moment! well, my first grow went tits up, (over nuted, under nuted, acid bathed, and salt attacked my plants and they didnt like it - then to top it off i got spider mite!) So anyway, i have 4 more plants in soil now, but i have my 4 pot recirculating...

well, my first grow went tits up, (over nuted, under nuted, acid bathed, and salt attacked my plants and they didnt like it - then to top it off i got spider mite!) So anyway, i have 4 more plants in soil now, but i have my 4 pot recirculating bubbler sitting doing nothing. my 4 pots are 20L...

everyone is going to have different preferences - i know i do! The way i picked my strains is first deciding on what kind of high i preffered - stoney, buzzin, or a bit of both:mrgreen: I took a long time on a couple of seed sites, and looked at all the strains and there effects, narrowed it...

if that chart is correct (which im sure it is looking all formal as it does!) then what is te reason behind keeping a hydro system between 5 and 6? when all the nutrients are obviuosly better available at 6.5?? Ive always wondered about the different recommended ph's between hydro and soil...

Bit of a problem you got there! I say turn everything you can afford to off for an hour, then the next day turn off the same stuff again for another hour - not exactly perfect, but i see it as a good compromise :)

Right then! So i have just recently started growing, and from the very beginning i discovered i definatley had NOT got green fingers. I planted about 16 seeds, all germinated! then they all streeeeeeetched cus i was using 1 cfl about a metre away! Then i fed them with full strength nutes, 3/4...

Wow! cant believe i hadnt found that before - what a usefull little page of info! from that it looks like i have an Mg deficiency - 3/4 tablespoons of epsom salts in my resevoir should fix that - oh, and maybe a good flush of my system before hand too! Ill make sure i post after ive done it to...

Anyone???????????

Yeah man, click on my grow journal link in my signiture, and all the pics are in there. Im running a recirculating hydroponic system, so technically im feeding all the time! If i think about it, when i added the nutes in after refilling the system (just over 100litres of water!) i did add more...

i know ive seen this problem on here before - but all the searches ive done have just brought up pictures similar to mine and no definate answers as to whats causing it! seems people have tried something that has been suggested in the thread - its worked and they havnt bothered posting what it...

I was wondering the same thing - ive read in a few places mixed spectrum is better than sticking with just the one. Im actually investing in three more lights (unless anyone here says anyhting different in my journal!) and was wondering which spectrum to buy. Im planning on flowering in the...

Maybe a bit of explanation is needed! - although not stoned at the moment, i know it would take me a few minutes to figure that out after a spliff or too! Its a paint drawing looking down on my grow room :hump: the new CFL's are drawn like that because im planning on mounting the reflectors...

At the moment i have only got the 2 200W CFL's hanging from the ceiling. I have been reading alot about CFL's, i went with them in the first place because of garden knowm's book, and how well you can obviously grow with CFL's. I had over estimated them though - after reading more since i...

can you clarify what LST is for me? ive done a search, but only seem to pull up threads that say they have LST'd - and none say what it actually is! is it similar to topping/fimming? If the plants only "really" smell when flowering - im guessing these ones are gonna stink!
