i should probly edit that , i dunno if most plants do it i guess it all comes down to what the plants are receiving ???ive seen monsters only shed a few leaves without no ferts at all.

hey hey kids
how are we all going ,yeah im pumped for some strange reason ,i just went to mates place and had a discussion about the screen to use for scrog
he says no the metal because the gal or zinc coat will react bad with the plants , i say what no way fuckaroo because i dont like to change plans ,he say what about a sheet of perspex ,grow those bad boys under until there ready then add nylon netting then flower
i say hummm you might be on something
like crack ,do you have any idea what a sheet of perspex will cost that big
but my point :do you extremily gifted growers of the aussie grow thread think that metal coatings will react with the plant and what should i use as a screen and how are you doing today

I'm using a metal screen, mine is a friggin old table that my hubby took the top off... I'm also using aluminium tape around the edges to make the tabe super smooth....Aluminium is the most commonly used metal for screens cause its cheap and lightweight... :-) I've had no adverse effects by the way...

..I dont consider myself extremely gifted, but i'll throw my 2cents in anyway.. A chicken wire mesh will do fine. It's what the majority of people use who dont have nylon netting. I got mine from the Hydro shop for $2. 8Enough uses the net from a child's soccer net, which i think is better cos his squares are 75mm whereas mine are 100mm n seem a little too big..

i heard of people using a half veg mix and half bloom mix
but i use the same nutes right the way through
I've heard that about veg nutes too. It can lengthen maturation times if used late in flowering though. I wouldn't use it past 6 weeks on an 8 week strain and even then only 1/4 strength.

The 'Veg' Nutes is only a good idea in about a 10% ratio..
hey, i was reading an article were he had done 2 grows with 1 plant full veg and the other veg with flower nutes at 12/12 ..he said the plant with just the veg nutes outperformed the other one by miles.Roseman has tryed it also and said good things,he also said in hes book the yellowing leaves means lost potency but he did write the book in the 80's.Jimmy the nursery im at now has metal screens and the plants dont seem to be effected.

thats what i think , i think he is just disagreeing for the sake of it
i wanna go to the snow but its just too fucking expensive
better off going to new zealand
any who i want to go metal and aluminum sounds the go ( i didn't even think of that one thanks lace )
yeah two weeks left and my scrog will be happening , i am actually very excited about this
and by the fact sons of anarchy has been givin the green light for 2 more seasons

Here are my White Rhino Girls. They were hatched on the 16th May.. They have been fairly neglected, but that is all part of my madness when i look for a nice mother or breeding plant.. I want a fighter :)
As you can see they are very Indica Dominant :-) These 3 are the Soul survivors of the 10 i kept of the 50 i hatched :-?
I'll proli end up keeping the plant in the top of the picture as it has the fastest growth, but i'll keep the others for another forthnight n see if they can wow me with node size or branch thickness etc..
