    Seedling strange leaves?

    If you're worried about getting the seedling's watering perfect, put it on a capillary mat or on a bed of perlite half-filled with water. I used to fuck about with trying to get the watering correct in the early stages but a nice constantly moist medium will be fine until you're ready to...

    Auto gelato by fastbuds

    Yea, nice one. If I remember correctly, there are C3 plants and C4 plants, autos being of one kind and photos being of the other. I've got my current auto on 24/0 and the growth rate is impressive.

    Auto gelato by fastbuds

    Hey man. Beautiful shades of green going on there. I was just wondering why your light is on for only 15 hours per day. Personally, I've never grown an auto on less than 18hrs. My Sweet Gelato Autos were grown on a 20/4 schedule and produced monstrous buds with an HLG strip kit. Also, the...

    Buds feel dry into week 7?

    I was planning to use Sohum for my next grow. If you check their website you'll see that that they recommend bottom watering. This will prolong the life of the soil and do a better job at keeping it alive for the duration of your grow. Top watering with run-off could explain your N...

    Autoflower not flowering fast enough

    Interesting that you mention supercropping. 4 of the plants I bent over ended up with curved stems. However, it wasn't until about a week later that I noticed the stem of the 5th plant had actually creased like a fold about half way up the plant. I'm not too sure but If info online is correct...

    Autoflower not flowering fast enough

    Hey all, I'm growing 'Shortstuff#1' at the mo. Got 5 on the go in a small space. Firstly, the reason I ordered these was because they're not supposed to get any taller than about 38 cm. Mine are now around 3 feet tall. I've had to bend the shit out of them to keep them from growing into my...

    When to Switch From Veg to Bloom Nutes with Autos

    I know this is an old thread but what about dwarf autos with very little stretching. I'm planning to grow shortstuff#1 and I need it finished in no too much more than 8 weeks if possible. Waiting until weeks 5 or 6 before introducing bloom nutes seems like a very short period for flowering. I...

    Has anyone grown outdoors under a garden fleece for security?

    All good points. Perhaps a privacy screen or some bushy plants would be far simpler and more effective. I definitely don't want mould and having the screen blow off would be a disaster.

    Has anyone grown outdoors under a garden fleece for security?

    Yep I plan to. Do you think that's enough light for a successful grow though?

    Has anyone grown outdoors under a garden fleece for security?

    That time of year is approaching again and my green fingers are getting sticky in anticipation. I'm planning to grow under one those plant fleeces which can be obtained for a very low price from somewhere like Homebase. The reason for this is so that passers by, on the way down my garden path...

    Welcome New Members!

    Hi fellow weed lovers. Just a quick question. I'm planning on growing some incredibly small plants (Shortstuff#1) which according to the breeder tops out at around 40cm. As I'm growing on a budget, and I've already got some Super Roots 11L air pots, which I suspect may be a bit too big for this...
