His problem seeds are Nirvana's .

He said his Dinafem seeds were kicking ass,let's try not to start false info.
Dinafem is a very reputable breeder.

Yes they still sell them there just expensive and I wasn't planning on using co2 until I started having a look through what gear I had so I was guna try and find 1 cheap if possible before I bite the bullet and have to pay retail

I've seen a few reports from different companies where autos haven't really been auto but I have never seen or heard a bad word about dinafem I've got some sweet seeds cream mandarine and some Dr krippling chocolate orange hopefully I won't come across any of these issues when I'm done I will post a full diary and report :)

It sounds to me as if you were stating " that he said he was having problems with Dinafem" where he didn't. That was all.

If not then why was Dinafem mentioned in your response to a Nirvana question?

Because I noticed he had mentioned dinafem and I said I haven't heard anything bad about them as in maybe stic with the reputable companies like dinafem in the future :)

 

[str8smokn]

Ok cool. Just a misunderstanding.
No worries my friend.
I have not seen that Co2 unit before,or many at all. Lol
I just have one of those books that show all different stores over there.
My Inlaws live in Amsterdam,so we visit quite often and I pick shit up everywhere.

Sorry if this has been covered, but there are so many past messages that I couldn't go through all of them. Is there a consensus on LST with autogrows. I've done two grows (4 plants) using LST, and have gotten OK yields (I think) but have never done a non-LST auto so I have nothing with which to compare. Thanks

 

[str8smokn]

I have grown out a Whiteberry ,and while growing I tied down the bottom 4 branches opening up the bottom. It ended up producing about another 8 bud sites.
One with LST training I got roughly 3oz,with out LST I got 2.5 oz..
Same strain,one was inside ,and one was outside.
Hope that helps.

Not familiar with Whiteberry. Is it an auto? Hard to imagine that kind of yeild.

Putting a air stone in the water usually helps a lot maybe just give em a touch instead of wetting them through will be better than letting them get too dry

Can you use the stuff the fish store uses to remove clorine and chromium for your water?
Not sure if it would work but fish tanks have plants so it has to be safe for plants.
It is a liquid in a dropper and you put a few drops in the fish tank with fresh tap water and it is supposed to neutralize the chemicals and you can add the fish right away without killing them.
I know this because I had some fish die from putting them in tap water and the pet store guy told me about it. I used it and the second set of fish didnt die when I changed the water.

I would do some looking into that 1st bro it might have adverse affects on the good bacteria in your medium and any food u put in the water once it has gone in :)

I found this post from someone one another website about the same question.

aquasafe is fine for plants ive been breeding fish for 22 years and dont use the stuff. costs too much. if you are going down this road i would buy the stuff for fish ponds its a lot cheaper and is consantrated
best way ov getting chlorine from water is by an air stone or spraying from the hosepipe the fine mist setting on the gun into a drum.
it only takes around 20 mins to remove chlorine in airriated water and around thirty hours if left to stand still depending on how much the water board puts in.
these are proven tests run by pfk.
hope this helps

The pet store guy said that chloramine doesnt go out of the water like chlorine does. He said you have to use a chemical neutralizer for chloramine or it will always be there.

I'm not disputing it removes clorine my concern is what else does it take away with it

 

[3N1GM4]

The additives that remove the chloramine and chlorine say that they are safe for plants on the websites.

 

[3N1GM4]

If you are using RO water there should be much in it anyway. The stuff is made for fish tanks with living plants so I would imagine that it is engineered to work with live plants.

Yes , that's Auto flowers. :)

I have been breeding auto flowering plants for nearly 14 years now and so far I have developed quite a few of my own strains. This experience has put me in a great position to talk about the history, development and techniques required to succeed.

I think I will take a quick break from growing techniques for a minute and show you a stealth set up that uses less than 300 watts of electricity and produces an ounce a week.

Let me dig up some pictures and I will be back in a minute to post them.

Do you sell your own seeds? I also had a question as to whether or not you can still pull decent yields with autos outside in a normal 12/14/10 hours of light a day.
