Hi ppl,

Shroomyshroom here, some of you might know me from from a few growing websites and some of you might know as a few other names on a few other sites.. wont mention them here as i think its not aloud on this forum..


well just wanted to drop in and say hi to everyone, I have emencly enjoyed reading all of the ppls first grow logs and attemps.. its getting me very very excieted actually as i am about to attemp my very own first grow in about a week... thanx to a very nice guy that was willing to throw some seeds my way...


well the basics that ppl will need to know is that I am from australia so looking forward to hearing and seeing any posts from any other aussies... "aussie aussie aussie oy oy oy"

I am a total newb when it comes to growing the herb so i will be putting up a few threads for help.. but of course ill do alot of reading b4 anything is put up


once again a great site and i have loved just reading ppl posts and the pictures are mouth watering



I have thought of a few questions that i think are the basics of getting started... so here they are..



1. Is it to late to germ seeds and plant em now..being that it is June 27th.
2. Do i have to put em under lights b4 i can put em out side.
3. How long after germing do Aussies plant out side...
4. What substrate are ppl filling the holes with that they are planning to grow in..
5. What critters are you finding that are eating your crops and what action are you taking..

I know alot of these questions are answered on this forum but it is for countries that are not Australia and I am not sure if it is the same for all countries

thanx in advance guys... I have learnt so much over the last couple of days... and cant wait to give this ago :D


if this is on the wrong forum can a mod please move it thanx in advance shroomyshroom

yea my first one went to harvest, got just under 2 oz from 2 plants...

i'll tell you now once you start you won't stop it's so addictive and you only want your next crop to be better then the previous, i stopped for 3 months and i swear not growing was worse then not smoking lol.

btw stick with this site, wihtout it i doubt i'd even be able to make a seed sprout.

this time of the year is fucked to germinate outside ,and i am in the west which is warmer than melbourne,if you have a spot picked in the bush ,prepare the hole ,i use sheep shit ,worm casting s, blood and bone and coco coir.
i usually tranfer outside late august ,early september, but bring up my seeds ,or clones under lights to get a bit of a head start ,remember we have hot weather so try to get them roots down and growing prior to the heat, i have lost some too roo,s ,bandicoots when they were seedling , no doubt rabbits and other critters ,i piss around my grow site ,also burn wire in a fire a little to make it less easy to see then have a strand or two at different heights around the plants ,but i live next to the bush so it depends on where you are as far as the bush goes.
water retention crystals are good also if you cant get to water often or easy access to water.
sorry i could go on but many more aussies may have better advice as to your area,good luck ,most bugs that would eat your buds inside are eaten by other bugs outside ,so i just plant more than i really need lose some ,go back and cull the males if not from clones ,and you will get a harvest ,also found out seedlings take of better than clones outside ,but maybe the strains i use vary ,so it depends,
good luck brother.:peace:

g,day mate
no worrys ,i am an old fart and grow outside mainly ,but do a bit of indoor in winter,good seeds are your main thing to try and get,if you can get a good local grown strain that has been grown by someone who knows what they are doing ,if not get some of the net ,i have tried several ,but only from canada,the u.k and eire ,the last is run via planet skunk and an aussie is the guy i spoke to when i rang to ask a bit of what they had ,shipping etc ,very helpful ,and was very quick compared too the others.
you could try a trip to nimbin as i think those lot are into all outdoors ,and you may get a good strain ,i had mullumbillby madness once along time ago ,excuse the spelling ,but that was extra good for outdoors.
if you do get some of the net you should have them before the planting time in oz ,but bring them up in your garden or indoors until they have abit of growth ,as it is a hard time in the bush for youngseedlings to survive , a sativa dominant strain grows well in oz but can get very big,so try bending and tying down if it is a problem, the indica strain gets abit smelly if you are close to people ,also as well as wire i get chook pen wire net ,burn that also and you can spread it over the top of your plants and it will keep most critters off ,although a skippy can and has jumped on a few of mine as they pass through ,but as long as you burn it so it does not stand out in the bush most folk dont notice.if you cant water easily get the water crystals ,and mix in your holes ,but dont go over the top ,but they help heaps when the hot weather hits.
also look for places that folk dont like to go ,i.e lots of thick bush with ticks ,snakes ,and generally unfriendly to walkers ,as we are lucky as far as hunters and such are concerned ,not many in oz ,i wear those strap on things you get from the army disposal stores to wrap around my boots ,no snakes will bite through them ,and do not tell a fucking soul ,no matter how good a mate ,as one is to many ,only yourself.
try and bring your seedling up in coco coir pot s ,or similar so it is easy to transplant in the ground ,and try and prepare your holes ,with the good shit a few weeks before putting your seedlings in , coco coir ,sheep shit worm castings etc are not too heavy and if you do it before you can take your time and get a bit in at a time ,depending on how many you wish to plant. you can get a small lye low like the kids use on the beach fill it with water and strap in your back if water is a problem ,it would look suss if someone sees you ,but it is easy to carry at night and leave near your plants under the bush ,until you need it. take a camera or something to explain if someone sees you wandering , i go marroning a lot ,or i think yabbies in your area so i have a few traps with me if anyone sees me.
hope it works for you brother take care ,and tell no one ,if you lose half to roo,s etc ,it is still better than three hundy an oscar ,and more from what i hear about prices over east.
