Aussie Growers Thread

Drip line etc but not automatic that way I could leave the tap on for as long as the weather pattern dictated to me how much water they needed

With all the massive legal grows in the US now can just let them do all the R&D and just follow their bet practice.

Hydro grows faster than soil because it has access to what it needs when it wants it. Just that there i think busts the wet/ dry for growth debate.

THC % may be another story but THC is not the whole story in regard to high either. Look at a list of cannabis cups winners for proof of that.

I smashed my veg growth almost daily and sometimes morning bit but mostly watered about 6pm-7pm
During flower I water only every few dasys after about week 3
Outdoors

During a dry spell the old man would say about watering the ground best just on sun up. He had some theory about waking the plants up and setting them up for the day.
Late flower he’d let the ground really dry out and let the grow stress a bit before watering if it was a unusually long dry spell. Reckoned it was like transitioning from wet to dry season as temps dropped.
I followed that when doing outdoors, don’t know how much difference it really made.

Yea i got abit carried away with the whole digital timer idea.. Altho i like the idea of a timer that way i if i forget about it i wont drown the plants..
I did buy a cheap tiner an a cheap garden hose to make life easier for myself, blockd one end off then drilled holes at each plant site but without being able to adjust flow at each spot the first half of the plants were gettin more water then the rest so i gave up on that idea

Many ppl affected by this virus yet in way of work or family etc ?

That top picks a gelato
Looks really nice

You're absolutely right, but you labelled them when you gave me the cuts, so I just went with what you told me! I shall have to move my beloved lollipop sticks around now.....

BTW, how many cuts of the Gelato are you after? They're already heading into flower, but I can take a few ASAP & put them back under 18/6 until you're ready to take consignment (at a secluded location of your choice...... ).

Heads-up, they'll be going into jiffy pellets & then probably into coco, as I don't have decent soil to get them into right now (unless you're OK with Osmocote potting mix with slow-release fert's in it? Your call mate.....).

 

[Rewerb]

That's a nice way of saying dumb mate

I have a certain way with words......

[JimyTheCook]

[Lukeqc]

Got redundo this morning. Bring on a short holiday!

Ouch! Sorry to hear that mate. Hopefully, only a SHORT holiday until this shit-storm blows-over & we all get back to normality (as opposed to the current mass hysteria over what is, after all, just another version of flu that does the rounds of the globe every single year).

The rest of it is just media beat-up.

At least it's not Captain Trips (as far as we know.......)!

 

[Lukeqc]

Yeah that’s the key. Get back into work sooner rather than later. On the bright side, managed to beat the crowds at the shops and do a proper food shop. A bottlo run tomorrow morning, and I’m ready for a lock down haha

Traffic is good

 

[Rewerb]

On a personal note, I'm ecstatic that this means a shortened AFL footy season with much less saturation media coverage. Instead, it will focus on a few people with sniffles, rather than 36 blokes beating the crap out of each other chasing a rugby ball around on a cricket pitch.

Clouds.....silver linings.........
