I'll try to keep my butt outta trouble, sticky.... "try" haha. I am a good guy.
Smeagol, I have heard of the copper ring thing. Conradino has used that technique with some copper fittings. There are a lot of industrial supply stores around and I am sure it would be easy to find a few cheap copper washers or something to surround a few starts. After the first couple leaves they are usually good so most of the time I just pick them off the ground when they are small and that seems to keep snails at bay.
I have never started a weed seed in the ground but I do grow spinach and tomatoes and lettuce and stuff... About half of them will get eaten sometimes but there are a few that make it through... but weed seeds are $10 apiece sometimes and I can't afford that. Until I start making more of my own that is....
I have just started to study fermentation science with a focus on beer, beverage and food production. Lots of chemistry and biochemistry that can be applied to cannabis cultivation and processing (curing) actually. Have you seen the cobbing / cannabis fermentation thread? It is in my signature. Something is going on there that is very unique and I don't know what it is. Cannabis is taboo to some people and I don;t talk about it much when in school but it is always on my mind. But those cobs. They are not like regular cannabis smoke. Whatever happens when you bag it up wet and "ferment" it changes everything about it...
Anyways... rambling...

and if it's any consolation the cheapest seed here in South Africa of decent strains starts at $17.10.
