If you watered a plant with carbonated water (non-sweetened of course) would the roots absorb the CO2? If you were doing a hydroponic (or one of its variants) type grow could you add carbonated water to the water they are growing in to aid in CO2 absorbtion? I read that the top 30 per cent of...

Thanks for the reply quietguy420. Though I would have thought the anology would be chomping down on a roast made from your own hand rather than drinking your own pee! I had another couple of ideas that I'm also wondering about; if you watered a plant with carbonated water (non- sweetened or...

I wonder whether by pulping the leaves and adding them to water then letting them decompose a bit and then shaking them up into a 'green tonic' they could be added to the soil of a plant in order to fertilise it? My logic is that since these leaves should contain all of the nutrients that a...

Never having done this before myself, but from the theories that I understand of the basic principles of hydroponic growing, I would imagine that as long as the supply of nutrients and water is adequate, the roots would not require being large to support growth. From what I can gather, the...

Two grand is a lot of money for something that, with a bit of junk collecting, someone could possibly build for themselves. I'm thinking; two bicycle wheels, screwed to pairs of ceiling batons with holes drilled in them, (one big one for the stem to grow through and under it many others to...

To me,there's no way of comparing the two. If you live only for pleasure then you'll be a nicer person to be around for other human beings if you choose dope over sex, because if you look at a woman or man as a vehicle for the pleasure that you derive from sex in the same way that a drug can...

this, I mean!

fuck that cracks me up!

That was very fortunate for you just finding the one banana, although I'd really prefer seeded buds myself. That might sound strange, but I've always had a theory that if you were to pollinate a female plant just at the very moment she was considered 'ripe', that the plant's overall volume of...

This could be a trick question, but, if you revegetate a seeded plant after harvest, will the next lot of buds it produces be already fertilized? Also, just to make it double barreled, if you take seed from a hermie plant, will those seeds always, and I mean guaranteed, without any hint of a...

If you have some dead snakes you're planning on using, I can tell you that once I saw some weed that had been fertilized with dead snakes and its leaves had the soft smooth texture of snake skin. It was quite surprising that you could really see the influence of whatever the snake had decomposed...

Thanks very much for your response. However, I am in Australia so there's no home depot here, and we have a standard that 10 amps is the legal limit for devices such as timers, this is why the hydro shop sting you $60 for a timer with a 30 amp 'switch' in it, that can supposedly handle what I',m...

Hi, firstly, thanks for offering your services to everyone on the site, it's very generous of you to do that. I am having what I believe is an electrical problem with timers. I am running 1x600w hps and 20x15w cfls. So far, I have fried 2 of those cheap timers and one of those with a supposed...

like millenniumbud said, ice works stock it, but it's too expensive for me to use regularly at 18.50 a kilo. if you were to put it in a cooler with holes drilled in it and maybe some frozen ice packs with it too, it might last for 6 days per block ( the guy at the ice works said 6 days was as...

Mmmm, I tried the dry ice, it may well have saved my plants from extinction during a particularly stressful day, but at $18.50 a kilo block that lasts 6 hours, it's a treat they're only going to get every now and then! Currently they're getting bottles of yeast with sugar and water thrown in...

Not trying to be contrary, but depending on how sparse or thick the branches are I would climb as far up in the tree as I could and hang the plant in a wire basket from a branch right near the top. Maybe you could stealthily run a piece of hose up to it and water it like that? I would most...

Sometimes, amidst the mass of a female flower on a female plant, a single male flower will appear and create a single seed. It doesn't necessarily mean all your buds are seeded. You're possibly a very lucky person as it would most definitely be what they call in the seed-bank catalogs a...

In many of those B-grade horror movies there were graveyards swirling with a cascading mist round the tombstones, (kind of like my living room on any Friday/Saturday night, hey, that's me in the cape with the fangs). That gas was sometimes carbon dioxide. It is heavy and so it sits and builds up...

Out of interest, I wonder what your University friend would think of this method of quick-drying boo? It is freeze drying. You need two tin cans, one bigger than the other and some dry ice. You put the dry ice in the big tin, the boo in the smaller tin and then place the smaller tin inside the...

As I said previously, I would return with my findings on these generously suggested repotting methods, but it is unfortunately not going to be conclusive information that I pass on as I have had problems with my timer that just happened to coincide with the repotting of the plants, and so if...
