Found this and wondered what growers here think? Reduce Your Concentration Hydroponic growers adjust the pH of their nutrient solution to around 5.8 to 6.2 – this provides the best accessibility to the widest range of nutritional elements. pH adjuster products are sold in grow shops in...

Can anyone advise me about growing under netting? Thinking I might have a go for my next grow. Does it work ok for MJ? My grow has got the better of me height wise. I’m certain it’s really going to cut my yield, and I’m finding it difficult to keep up with pulling plants around and tying the...

Anyone used Autofem seeds? I haven’t seen them in any grow journals, though I may have missed them. Strains I’ve seen are: Auto-Soviet, Auto-Bud, Auto-Oil, Auto-Fuel, Auto-Uzbeka and Auto-Bluekush.

I’d like members to let new growers like myself, (i.e. those that haven’t got ideas set in stone yet) what the pros & cons of different brands of nutrients are. I’m using Canna Aqua in a re-circulation system for my first grow. What are you guys using? I’d like to find the most popular nutes...

Could anyone tell me the best time to add Canna (I’m using Aqua nutes) PK13/14 to the mix? According to the label on the bottle, it’s three weeks before harvest. But I’ve got a loose Canna info sheet, which says to add at first sign of "small fruit development". Well I’ve got buds starting to...

I’ve just had to clear everything but the plants from the tent to give them more space to spread. These plants have just started their third week of 12 x 12 and they’re still getting taller. I thought Indica’s would stay shorter than this. Anyone know when they’re likely to stop climbing? Also...

I've got into the habit of moving the older larger leaves aside to allow the new shoots a bit more light and air movement. I've noticed the odd leaves (just two on different days) which had a wet patch on them. It appears to be plain water? It's clear, has no smell and just wipes off. I'm not...

I’m using an eight pot Wilma system and I’ve just noticed while doing a nute change, that my root system has grown down through the bottom of the pots, along the drain channels and are trailing about 4 or 5 inches into the sump. They look white and healthy, but is that OK? :o

Hi all. Wonder if you can help me out. As I opened my tent this morning, I thought I had some dirt moving across the lens of my eye. I blinked and looked again then noticed about six of the tiniest little flies darting around the canopy of my plants. I clapped my hands on a couple, but they were...

I've been in hopital for a while, so excuse me if this is a stupid question but. What happened to Newbud? :confused: (Got a feeling that's gonna be a sore question) :rolleyes:

I’ve noticed a few small brownish-yellow spots on 3 or 4 leaves which according to my ‘bible’ looks like a magnesium deficiency. It recommends misting with Epsom salts at two teaspoons per gallons of water. I don’t want the problem to escalate as the grow progresses, :cry: so any advise would...

Could anyone advise me when to change over to flowering nutrients? I’m using Canna and their info sheet’s confusing me. After switching to 12x12 should I carry on with Aqua Vega until first signs of fruit formation. Or should I just switch to Flores as soon as I change to the 12 hour period...

So I’m watching my first ever grow becoming established,:watchplant: (wet seeds 21 days ago) and it occurred to me (a newbie remember) that the normal "cannabis emblem", is a Sativa leaf with five lobes. Mine however have only three :eek: (I’m growing two strains of Indica). I know the Sativas...

I’m interested to know what users think of the claims made by seed companies (as below ). In particular, ‘yield’s? This one’s for Royal Queen Seeds Easy Buds Feminized. First of all, are they talking about yield: per plant. Or square meter of grow space. Or per 5 seeds in a packet etc? Can a...

Hi all. Finally got the money for my light, and here's where my herbs will be nurtured. I'm really exited now. Just got to wind down a few electrical appliances to compensate, and I'll be wetting my seeds for my first ever grow. As soon as I do I'll start a journal. Please watch this space...

Thought I’d just say hi Glad I found you, just setting things up for my first grow. I’ve still got a few things to get, but wage packets are slowing things down a little. So I’ll be doing all my homework here before I get started by the looks of things. Looking forward to starting my first...
