    Flower back to Veg?

    Hey all, keeping it brief, I have a plant that went into flower while I was away and it has pretty much completed its life cycle in terms of flowering. It is only small but I wanted it for clones.... Can I take this plant back to vegetation without serious side effects (purely to take clones)...

    Water PH and soil question

    The seedlings are too young for nutes yet, I have begun adjusting the Ph, it will only work out to about three waterings before it sits at 6ish. I may pick up a soil test kit in the next few days, definitely before I re pot them. Fun & Games!!!

    Water PH and soil question

    Hi, I tested my water last night and it hit an easy 8 on the Ph scale. I used Ph Down and did a good solid watering with Ph 7.5 water. The soil is a quality seedling soil from yates, I have not got a soil test kit but I assume it would be a suitable Ph. (50/50 soil/Perlite) Will it be ok to...

    First Grow - CFL Semi Stealth

    Got out the jigsaw and mounted a new wall over the front half of the room. The exhaust fan is AC 160mm, it pushes a shit load of air out, I'm thinking an intake fan is not needed (plus this thing is loud enough on its own.) I want to check Jaycar tomorrow and see if there is a way I can slow...

    First Grow - CFL Semi Stealth

    New seeds popped and placed into the soil last night, went with eight total as I'm hoping for at least four females. New soil looks a lot nicer than the old crap, its a much darker colour and finer. I mixed up 50/50 Seedling soil and Perlite and I also picked up some new degradable cardboard...

    First Grow - CFL Semi Stealth

    Yea the original soil was a no name from Bunnings, it is very chunky. I have already dragged the bag out the back and will just use it on decorative indoor plants instead. I heard the Yates seedling soil is very good :) Should have some pictures of the new setup soon.

    First Grow - CFL Semi Stealth

    Brief Pause while I try to fix my mistakes, all but one of the original seedlings are looking terrible. To that end I have started germinating another batch of seeds. I have also purchased a bag of Yates seedling soil and a bag of perlite, along with three more globes and some other bits and...

    Newbie help with burns please

    Thanks all, I will flush the pots for the moment and hope that helps over the next few days. I cannot afford new soil for a few days at least I'm afraid, hoping it can wait until a re-pot is due.

I also noticed that the leaves are a lighter colour of green than I would have thought healthy, sorry for the crap pictures but this...

Looked at light sockets today and they all have four connections, if I...
