hi fellow growers. been ages since i've been here. Puter problems. i got a hermie and really hated to remove from grow but. . . ya do what ya gotta. My beauties have massive white hairs sranding up and out, begging for a pollen molecule to have sex with. No, No, all virgins in my garden of...

yeah, i wish i had 50x50'. Man-o-man. when i played w/ cloning I was getting roots before I had pots empty from the previous grow. I put my clones in n e thing that would hold a gal of soil. Coffee cans, icecream buckets, old houseplant pots. I transplanted asap and am looking to a good harvest...

had the fungus gnat nitemare w/ fox farm. The company and the greenhouse said to bad for me. I never buy FF N E more. I found another soil I like just fine and its cheaper than FF.:rollit:

U kno why we see the plants as green? They don't absorb green, they reflect it. Same reason the sky is blue and daisies are white, etc. u get the jist of it. kule-huh! Our eyes see what is reflected off of the item of color. The grass absorbs all color except green, it reflects it and our eyes...

I agree. Plain water is good. if u can, put a bubbler in your flush water and pump in some O2. Besides, bubbling your tap water removes the chlorine quicker. ( $6.00 pump.$2.00 tube,99 cent bubble stone, electricity to run the pump) Less than $10 buks and u can use the stuff over and over, a one...

thank u 4 the 411. Its been so long since i've looked u up I've forgotten a little info for curling leaves or color changes besides the natural ones. good to refresh myself. My plants r beautiful, from the houseplants to the flower garden. Seems like I grow everything well except tomatoes. Think...

i agree, don't toss the floaters right away. Give 'em a chance. It won't hurt n e thing.:bravo:

I found a plant full of seeds on one of my many treks along the river here and plucked a couple seeds fresh off the plant, put them in a dab of h20 and now, 3 days l8r, the little white tail is peeking out. these seeds will grow into fatties or not? Being fresh as they r. I've read many...

yeah, I'm an old kansas dirt farmer too. love the smell of the earth. Healthy and alive. I'm a little wormaphobic so I don't touch any of the critters but I want to know they r there. Not inside,either

I saw a bud growing on the stem of a leaf at the point where the fingers meet. That was weird. I believe it was a clone. Don't know the name. or if the guys growing it even pay attention to the name n e more. they are cloning fools. 100's of 'em. :high-five:

I've had bugs in my FF ocean and the nursery said tough stuff. FF didn't reply. Only time I ever had bugs. used pyrethrum and got rid of the critters but had to poison every 7 days for 4 uses. Good thing it was way early in the season. :rollit::rollit::straightface:

here 4 color? yup, gotta move cursor b4 starting. :cheertwo:

I like to put myco in my hole b-4 putting my germd seedling in. As 4 dirt germing place seed on top of sifted soil and when all ur seeds r on the soil, one 2 a pot, sift more soil on top then gently spray w/ good h2o, if needed, sift more soil on again. until dampened soil is 1/4 to 1/2 inch...

is there any new germ procedures?
