    How to prevent mold growth in nutrient bottles

    Oh wow. Thats gross. I've never seen something like that come out of a nutrient bottle. I have to imagine thats severe contamination. Im pretty relaxed when it comes to cleanliness, and I've had some nutes sit around for years in warm conditions and they've always been fine. So you use your...

    Manutec pH Test Kit

    Just a heads up. Do NOT buy the Manutec Liquid Ph Test Kit from Bunnings. It sucks. I searched the forums for reviews but I didn't see any so decided to give it a try. This is for anyone who does the same in the future. So I've been using the Flairform one for years but I abruptly ran out...

    Is there something wrong with me?

    Could be. A major component of loam is silt after all. Rivers do produce a lot of silt. This looks like a sandy loam as it seems to have a high sand content and a relatively low clay content.

    When Will they Fatten Up? Week 6 Flower

    Yeah cool cool. Seems like you've got it under control so all good. Still not sure what that has to do with "half strength" or "getting out of hand"...the wording just threw me off I guess. None of the nutrients I've ever used listed PPMs. It always just states volume like 2.5ml per 1L. I've...

    Is there something wrong with me?

    Nah, looks like decent loam. I don't think you'll find too many references to that well known classification of "shit dirt" in the literature. And besides, everything is relative. I live on land with the thickest most goopy clay. I would KILL for "shit dirt" like that.

    When Will they Fatten Up? Week 6 Flower

    Yeah they should fatten up soon. Patience. And what do you mean by "at about half strength to keep the ppm from getting out of hand"? How does PPM get "out of hand"? I Also grow DWC and I simply listen to my plants and 100% disregard dosage on the bottle. I test PPM's daily in conjuction with...

    Zkittlez

    I'm running one now for the first time from seed. Its only 9 days into 12/12, and its sharing a tub with 3 other plants/strains so I can't say a lot about it yet other than it was the only plant in the tub to have any deficiencies...specifically a calcium deficiency. I upped calmag and all was...

    Planting Seeds Home?

    Seed directly into soil in its final pot is a-okay Give it a shot. Do whatever works for you. There's so many "rules" and bro science in this sphere that I would always encourage experimentation. There's so many different variables that what doesnt work for someone else might work for you...

    I sprouted twins from I love grown marijuana.com California Dream strand

    Yeah the sooner you separate them the better. Just be very gentle as they can be super fragile at that stage and size. And definitely just go one seed per container in the future. Much easier and less risky than messing around with newly germed seedlings. Anyways good luck and keep us updated.

    Yellow spots on seedling

    I agree its hard to see in the out of focus photo. Calmag issues would lead to spots, but it looks about a week old so I wouldn't think it would be showing any sort of deficiencies so early? I grow DWC and I don't use nutes for the first week or more, just ph'd tap water and they grow fast and...

    Attitude seeds to Australia Nsw

    I had used attitude for years (~10 orders) to Australia but last time I tried it said that they didnt offer guaranteed shipping for Aus anymore. So I ordered from seed-city.com instead. It was a good experience overall. Stealth was no where near as good as attitude but they got here so cant...

    does eating gummies make you high?

    Crikey! A little early? If you smoked it and it didnt even get you high then just how early did you harvest it? If its that bad then I'm not sure edibles are your answer. Starting again and letting it finish flowering would be a start. And not too sure what this has to do with nutrients, but...

    What is best

    IMO, whichever ones you can get easily and cheaply without having to ship them. They're just pots. Crap growers will have crap results in the "best" pots. Skilled growers will have fantastic results in the "worst" pots. Get your growing down 100% and then maybe look for the small gains from...

    How I accelerate fade in soil

    Yep. This ☝ Its all in the drying and curing process. Don't starve your plants at any stage.

    Feminizing Seed Spray - Advice?

    Okay thanks...thats super helpful. I think the safe bet is to leave them on the plant and bag them which I'll do. I'd rather risk some pollen getting out into the tent as opposed to not getting any at all.

    Feminizing Seed Spray - Advice?

    Update: I was going to take clones and reverse them but that didnt end up happening. So I've started applying STS to a single branch of three of my six plants. Two applications so far. First was four days ago, next was today, and also switched to 12/12 today. I will now apply every five days...

    Ph Reader

    Have you tried a new battery? Otherwise I prefer the vial with the drops for ph over an electronic one.

    How to tell if plant in flower still alive?

    Yeah if the roots dried out to the point it was unrecoverable the there would probably be some drooping or at least a general look of unhappiness from the plant and it would deteriote quickly after that. Again, sounds like you'll be fine.

    How to tell if plant in flower still alive?
