    CFL Flowering Virgin

    Ok the plants just started flowering about a week ago, buds are growing. I'm on 12/12 lightening with now more warm globes and watering is the same as veg, on 2 - 3 days. Now what do I have to change, what about nurients and watering? How long will they need to be in flower before harvest?

    Change from 24/7 Light to Flowering

    Lower Water pH - Best Method

    Ok so just purchased a digital Ph Meter and my tap water is 7.8. I don't have a water purifyer but I thought if I boil some water and leave it sit for a few days and use that with whatever else I need to lower the PH it would be ok? Would I use lime from my local garden store?

    Seaweed for foliar spray?

    Is it ok to use organic Seaweed fertilzer for foliar spray? This is also what I feed my plants in their water every 2nd or 3rd watering. The bottle I got doesn't give any details on how much nitrogen etc is in it. This is the stuff I use here: http://www.amgrow.com.au/products/org_seaw_org.htm...

    Exhaust Pipes Material

    What is the silver material used in some peoples exhaust pipes? Is it vital to use this material and what is the reason that it is used? I know I have seen this using in kitchen exhaust pipes in the past so I guess it is the same thing. Here is a pic I found that shows one.

    My First Indoor Grow Challange

    Hi, My 2 small seedlings seem very slow growing. I sprouted the seeds using the paper towel method and they quickly spouted up in the soil after I had planted them.
