Been growing hydro for years, have never mixed concentrates and stored them but have mixed concentrates and then added water straight after with no noticeable side effects. I’ve heard a lot of things like “always add cal/mag 1st”, never mix A&B together in concentrate form”, “Allow your...

Haha good pick up purpleberry :D

That’s ok ozy, and yes better to not post i think :lol: Nebula haze had a grow journal on (I think) a black jack and a Wonder Woman. Both mainlined under a 600w hid. She got close to 1.5 pounds off memory. 8)

It’s great being able to inspect the roots! The thing I liked about mainlining (from what I’ve seen) is you have sog quality single colas but more of them on one plant so less plant count needed. And no scrog net to get in the way. Do you have any pics of previous mainlined grows close to...

Give praise where praise is due I say :cool: Yea makes sense. 4 colas per sqft is roughly the spacing I’d use when scrogging. I’ve grown a lot in dwc and always looking at the roots. I found the plants with explosive white root growth generally have decent main stalks. And grow/yield bigger. I’m...

Spider mites are my worst fear haha. I got them about 4 years ago and every time I thought I had them exterminated. They’d come back twice as hard! I ended up culling my perpetual grow, bleach cleaning EVERYTHING! And using that opportunity to go for a holiday. (Wasn’t all bad I suppose!?) I’m...

Very nice ozy! Manifolding isn’t probably the only thing I haven’t tried. How old were they in the 1st pic, 1 day before flipping? Do you find the extra time manifolding beneficial as opposed to the same veg time when scrogging?

I made the mistake of using it on very young plants. Took a while to recover from the damage :oops:

Totally agree. And they do seem a bit susceptible to a lot of sprays. Unlike spider mites etc!

Wow. Haven’t heard that! Could be a black market for sure. I looked into tobacco growing a while back as most people wouldn’t even know what the plant looked like if they saw it. The curing side threw me off.

Was going to do that before it got dark but chickened out haha. she’s starting to throw out the odd white pistol.

Good info beernutz! Might hit them hard with maverick then use dipel more as a preventative!?

That’s what I find contradicting. If they wanted people to quit, they would just make it illegal! It’s all about the revenue my friend.

Good to know jimy, Heading to bunnings tomorrow. Might get some maverick and dipel. Had them last year and they go straight for the nodes and buds.... lost a bit to the bastards! :roll:

Or no fines for growing something that naturally grows wild. But I don’t think that would happen if the government could make $ on it... just like tobacco!

Just ran out of pyrethrum. I agree with you there calbrowno, it works on a lot of pests but is harsh on the plants.

My girls! If you can’t see any frost on them yet beernutz, I bet you will soon!

Thanks beernutz was going to ask you the question haha. But thought it would be rude not to ask everyone :lol:

Can anyone recommend a good caterpillar spray for outdoor plants? Just found an infestation on one of my plants. Have used neem oil for now, hoping to keep them at bay until I can get something decent....

I’ve tried using ph perfect in soil..... won’t do that again! :roll:
