Hi guys, I have a question about my first baby's premature death. It was fine when I checked it this morning, and about an hour ago I came home, and the stem had bent at soil level and it was drooping sadly against the plastic cup in which it was growing in. I've been growing it in a jiffy pot, and only watering it when the 'soil' turns a lighter brown colour. I'm not fertilising at the moment but I am watering it with mainly pond water. I leave it outdoors too so I don't reckon light is the major issue here. I've piled some more soil around it, so that it has more support now, but I'm not hopeful that it'll pull through.. any suggestions as to what the problem is? …

Hey All, How are we this Sunny Saturday Morning??? I got an idea last night for a pantry setup with the shelves all removed. I figured a halogen lighting system (Star light 220W Full Unit) affixsed to the top, a single pot and seed in the bottom, black plastic to jam into the doorframe, Should work right??? Look honestly, I have no idea how to grow (My Dad did, I don't) but I am an afficienado of medicinal pot and seriously need to start my own supply. Please help Peoples, I just want a single plant setup thats very discreet. I trust your judgements

Can some one out there tell me if using a light rail will slow down the flower process. i know u obviously double you area but does this slow or affect anything as the light is not constant on the same area? Is 2 lights better than 1 on a mover for best results? How large an area are people covering with movers? Some rails are 2.4 long so i,m guessing that you can cover an area approx 1.2 wide by up to 3.5 long by running light to the end of the rail? BH

I'm thinking about keeping some clones in indoor storage until the time is right "next year" and then moving them outside and transplanting them in prepaired plots in late spring,,,or about now if it was this year,,,while the day light hours are still on the increase I would guess ???????. This would get around two issues for me,,,every one of them would be a known female,,and once in place I wouldn't need to vist as much as I have done in the past. Has any body else done this and if so,,how did it go. Thanks, John.

I am currently germinating some seed. I tried wet tissue method and leave the seed on them for a week. No progress at all, I maintained the tissue wet throughout the period. Is is possible that the temperature or the medium is not suitable? Items used: toilet disposable towel tap water disposable cup This is really making me mad. Advice me! Thanks!

I want to spread out the colas on my plant but they're getting a little solid to start bending as they're more than 60cm tall each, Can I use copper coated wire like what they use in Bonsai plants to gently turn them out, it would also help keep the stems firmer
