    I did it .......... my waaaaay!!!

    Decided to throw my style out there with a few pics. Ya don't really get the full effetct from the pics as I can't get a wider angle but ya can get the general idea. What you got to remember is that my bud is all the way round, not just the parts facing the light. Room is 8ft x 8ft x 6ft high...

    Sacraficial anode

    I was sat watching "QUEST" the other week, Mighty Ships to be precise and they showed these sacrificial anodes that they place on the bottom of ships that attract rust and slow down the decay of ships hull. Being a bit stoned, actually I was baked.... again, I wondered if anything similar is...

    Is pruning relative to growth.

    Sorry about the title, it's a hard question to ask in a few words. What I am asking is..... Is pruning and its negative effects, relative to area pruned. If the main cola is stripped of all fan leaves, will it effect the whole plant or just the main cola. All other foliage is left (fairly big...

    You can take our threads but you can't take our sense of humour!!

    MODS...... Be very careful, police to heavily and you will lose your forum. It's hilarious really, this is a forum about growing weed (generally very wrong in the eyes of the law), and yet you delete a funny thread which mentions a TAMPON. If the thread was about toilet roll would you have done...

    48 hrs light at the end of flower

    Just a thought........ last 2-3 weeks of flower is putting on weight, swelling cyclaxes etc etc. Our plants only grow when lights on. What would be the effect of having light on for 2 days solid right at the end then chop? This is one for the proper green fingered guru's, hormones and all...

    Lighting Problems

    One of my light timers failed during week 6 of flower and the 'ON' cycle ran over by 3hrs before I found out. I was then forced to buy a digital timer which I cocked up the programming and the lights went over by 2 hours on the following day. Everything resolved now but was wondering how much of...

    Plant metabolism & fan leaves

    I am currently onto my second hydro SOG (clone straight to flower F&D). The first yield was bang on in quality but I only averaged 1.5kg off 4 x 600w HPS. The setup was fully tuned in without problems but I didn't hit that illusive 1g / watt. 1g / watt is my goal and pulling my hair out trying...

    Flood and Drain

    I am gonna give hydro a go.... Flood and drain table 1.2m x.1.2m SOG (36 plants) My question is how deep does the flood cycle need to be. The reason I ask is the table I am looking at is 12cm deep and therefore I can only flood the table to a depth of 11cm. The square pots I am using are 19cm x...

    Fogger to Treat Spider Mite

    Right.... I am ready to shoot myself. I have an ongoing battle with spidermite, tried everything and the littoe bastards just keep coming back. My problem is that I have a perpetual grow of 12 plants so my tent is never empty and I can't give the tent a good clean. All I seem to be doing is...

    Topping Cola's

    Sorry for the repeat thread, posted in advanced cultivation but it seems that no fuckers scroll down that far to see it. :-P I don't know if anybody has tried or heard of this but this happened to me quite by accident. One of my Tangerine Dreams (4 weeks into flower) seemed to be bit behind...

    Topping cola's.

    I don't know if anybody has tried or heard of this but this happened to me quite by accident. One of my Tangerine Dreams (4 weeks into flower) seemed to be bit behind with regards bud developement. They were only half as wide as it's sisters so I decided to drop the light a bit and see if that...
