Hello again, I’m germinating again, and want to see if there is a better way. In the past, I’ve used paper towels & it worked very well. I stopped due to the possible problem of having the sprouts grow into them. Then, I have now used the water in the glass method…..I’m not sure, but think I’m...

I’ve been getting new soil every year ….I tried reusing it once, mixing it with nutrients & it didn’t work well at all…. but, getting new soil yearly is making for a big pile of it. I really don’t like to waste things, so been meaning to ask…. Can I reuse last year’s? & if so, what can I do...

They’re chewing the outside of stems . Killing plants

I posted recently about ants killing my plants. Well, I tried Cinnamon corn meal (actually did the best) Diatomaceous earth I started with 33 plants. four are completely dead. Another 2-3 have the buds now dying. And the rest are ready for the trash heap. This is my 8th year growing. dealt...

Husband is getting today. Hope tomorrow isn’t too late. By the time he gets home, it’ll be about 106-7 degrees, I can’t go out when it’s that hot due to illness.

They’re in pots which ALL have ants now

Sounds good, however we have livestock, wild animals (including raccoons, which ‘ate’ two last year), so we have an electric fence with chicken or similar fencing material 3 f up to keep them all out. The 33 plants I started with take up all the room. No place to move them :|. thanks for the...

I looked for other pests & none found. I read about the Aphids I think, however nothing found. So, I’ll try the Diatomaceous dust. Thank you all for your suggestions :)

I think I’ve messed up totally this time! We’ve had 100-108 temps every day since late June. It robbed the plants of Potassium & I tried Fox Farm Big Bloom & Tiger Bloom. Only found after lots of searching that the heat causes loss of Potassium. So,st trying. Any suggestions would be great...

Just found what it is……after applying fertilizer with magnesium added: (THEN I looked it up :-|) calcium deficiency. Photos showed early deficiency (online,not rollitup )

I have other leaves showing classic magnesium deficiency. I added Magnesium last week. Not sure if any more have that. This never looked like that. It started with the very black spots in the center vein. I use tap water (it is low in chemicals, thank goodness). We’re in the country. OH, I...

I’ve got a problem which started with one plant only. (I can’t find any photos that look like this) it is almost dead now. The leaves finally all get this & die… Now, a 2nd plant (a really good one, too!) has it. here are the photos. Anyone have an idea what it is? I don’t think it’s...

Thanks. I thought so, but assuming isn’t a good idea .

My nephew, who’s in the cannabis industry , told me I could reuse bud smoked with the vape for edibles, etc. I had been tossing it after I “smoked “ it. My question is: Do I need to decarb it before using? thanks

Thanks, yes I decarb my weed before I make my RSO for my capsules ;) . I’ve tried bubble hash & that was a messy business! I’m thinking of trying the dry ice ….but the ‘Long Covid’ got in my way of learning anything. I’ve been practically a vegetable this last 9+ months with this nasty stuff...
