Thanks for your kind words. Let's hope the little doll's house will contain some nice goodies for daddy soon!

I hear you and it's very much on the to-do list. I think I will construct a bank of computer fans (have a box full of old ones from broken down power-supplies) and place this bank on the inside and above the door on a swiveling mechanism. This way I can gently stir up those leaves a bit. As for...

I've grown so weary of the very poor quality of "herbs" to be found around my area that I decided to build a little self-contained grow-cabinet and grow my own. Being a professional cabinet-maker, I realized that I would never live down a sloppily-built cabinet. My friends would point and...

Yep thanks for that. From the christmas tree-like shape the two little ladies had, I now noticed new larger leaves appearing at the top. That mean they're reverting?

I remember the one and only time I tried it, I was young and very inexperienced so I overdid the whole thing with some friends and a wicked bong. I got so stoned that I actually had hallucinations and also this ridiculous attack of mirth. Man, I would look and my own reflection and see this...

OK cool, then I will start cracking the whip first thing tomorrow morning. We have been experiencing a very uncharacteristically cold Winter for the last month or so, so I'm not really up for going out to my workshop where the grow box lives right now! Actually I have just had thought; if I...

I'm having to take a quick business-related scouting trip to Durban. I think my first stop will have to be at the very first dealer I find that sells Durban-poison. It is a classic local pure sativa-strain, with a reputation for a stunning buz. If I'm lucky, 1/4 of the baggy will be seeds!

Oh, so no sleep at all required when vegging?

By the way, can anyone tell me how long it will take those two cheeky 4 inch high flowering ladies to revert at 18 hours of MH loving per day.

After two 18 hour photoperiods I have now noticed that none of the plants had grown any taller (easy to check with the plants sitting right underneath the glass pane - probably no more than 6 inches from the light), however there is some serious action going on lower down! I will work on a more...

Florida, I took your advice regarding raising the plants toward the lights. It's a temporary measure, but I simply placed a piece of white masonite on an upturned bucket and placed the plants directly under the glass separating the lights from the greenhouse-area. It has only been one 18 hour...

I doubt it would be legal. AFAIK possession of seeds is treated as possession of cannabis. I am a new South African grower myself and am also hesitant to order seeds online for fear of getting busted in such a ridiculous fashion. On the upside I think we are lucky to live in a region where you...

Yea, me too. Will certainly be watching. I'm building an LED array to supplement my HIDs and am very intrigued to see how LEDs in isolation will fare. Have done quite a bit research around the net and it would seem that deep-red LEDs around 660nm wavelength, blue around 470nm and in some cases...

Thanks, it's my first attempt so I'm hoping....well, not my first attempt at carpentry (I do it for a living)....I mean the growing of course. Can't wait for flowering time, well actually two plants have accidentally gone into flowering what with all the hullabaloo surrounding the manufacturing...

No Floridasucks, I dont move the lights as they are fited above two panes of glass to isolate the heat from the lights. I do however have a coverable window in the back, which is open to a North-facing window to allow the lovely SA sun to do it's bit as well. As soon as I notice any stretching...

I'm not entirely sure about the cultivar (if that's the right term - sounds kinda classy, doesn't it?) Some type of Sativa by the look of the leaves. They're seeds from a "bankie" I bought that didn't entirely suck! Man I remember the stuff I used to buy in PE, the friendly city, but now that...

So true ProudlySellin', nothing but low-quality headache-inducing junk in Gauteng! Fortunately my first little grow is going nicely and I will post some pics as soon as I get the time. My temporary grow room is an old printer box with some MH and HPS to light it all, heh heh. The missus has...

Another South African dude here. We have some good herb around, but there is also a lot of "skunky" junk around. I have recently decided to grow something spectacular for my own use and really appreciate all the advice on this site. Thanks all.
