Thanks LG. Fiji is a great place. I think it might have some dodgey parts though as my sis went there on an all inclusive and it was pretty dismal. When i went years ago i stayed on a reef and went snorkeling each day. Loved it.
Yeah, we are doing the islands first for four days, Castaway Island and then back to the Coral Coast to stay at the 5 star Outrigger....got the best advice from tripadvisor... :-)

relax, dont worry about the purple, its nothing. lots of ppl worry bout purple stems wen they are new growers but eventually see that theres nothing to worry about.. (any of the problems ie. N def, that can cause purp stems rarely the problem, its just genes.. relax)
I dont think its genes it could b cause it was crossed with sum fuck wit with his males outside but the mother of the clones doesnt hav any purple not that iv noticed anyway

I dont think its possible to be honest? For my first grow i used nitrosol for both flower and veg and it just did a horrible job. I know you asked for flower but a good Veg might be something like Sulphate of Ammonia (high nitrogen with easy avaliablity) and team it up with somethin glike Nitrosol and Trace Elements (comes in a little Orange container) as that should give you a big hit of Nitrogen (from the ammonia) but also cover your essentials (from the nitrosol) and also traces. There is a product called Urea which is basically pure nitrogen (about 88%) but DO NOT USE THIS. Urea will make those EC's levels stupid high.

As for bloom nutes....Well in Veg you need high Nitrogen and in Flower you need high Potassium. No names are comming to mind of what would be good for this....however if you go in and look on the back of the bottles look for nutes with a high Potassium ratio (Denoted as "k").


To be honest though take it from someone who has tried Bunnings crap and then tried proper nutes....The proper nutes work so much better!!! Look in the yellow pages for hydroponic stores and see where they are around you. Look online for hydroponic stores as there are a bunch that you can buy online and have delievered. Try Ebay even.

Hope this helps :)

Before you go to a hydro store, I would recommend having a look at these guys.
http://stores.shop.ebay.com.au/Discount-Hydroponic-Supplies__W0QQ_armrsZ1

I like getting huge discounts at hydro stores now by saying "Discount hydro sells this for $XX, can you match it?" I walked out of a shop the other day with a 150mm ezi-fan and 5m of duct for $61. I think discount hydro has become the bane of hydroponics stores oz wide and stores are usually willing to sell things, at cost or below to keep the punters coming back.

If you couldn't be bothered spending much money or time on growing I would suggest a box of miracle grow which you can get for around $5. I know, I know..... its shit, but for five bucks its better than nothing and you can harvest a meager crop that will at least X10 your initial investment. I have seen outdoor MG plants produce over ½ lb.

Oh yeah sweet il hav to giv it a go then real soon
for years i looked at that white shit and thought im not useing that for my weed, till i read the packet, it says its an inert mineral rock that is super heated, so i tasted some on my tounge and it has no taste, just puffed rock like popcorn that hold air= (O2=nitrogen= co2), plus some nute retention, but thats what coco is for holding water the two are peas in a pod

Hi master Hemp.....How long did you wait for Planet Skunk? You are the first person I've heard of that hasn't received their order.... Have you contacted them? If you contact them and explain what happened, I'm sure they will send it again...Herbie's head shop is located in the UK, just google it and it will take you there....They are also another excellent store with some great strains... I've lost two seed orders to customs, you're not the only one... :-) We've all been thru it... Only order about 1-2 strains at a time....

Don't post to your home address if you can help it....
