Well I just started my plants. I germinated some seeds and put them inside my Lenai. I went out to look at them today and i think 5 have sprouted already. Were getting a lot of rain from a tropical storm. I think the water will drain off. They definetly wont go under water but do you think they will still be ok. If anyone has any type of pointer for me like what type of fertilizer i should use or something that will make the roots grow more and the stem thicker. I saw something on here that said Milk might actually be good for your plant. If thats true could someone let me know. And any kind of advice would really help a lot. Thanks

Well the tropical storm is over. I think the sprouts are fine. We really needed the rain so i think the ground just soaked it all up. I have one plant that i started a while back which was weird because all i did was germinate some seeds and i planted one of them in just like this sand mixture i dont even know if it had any real soil in it. Well one day i was out by my pool and i looked over and there was a little plant among all the weeds and i couldnt believe it. I then transplanted that one because at the time my jacuzzi had like a fountain that was shooting up in the air and the water was getting out and some was draining into the bed. So it was burning it cause of the chlorine and chemicals. But i took that fountain out now and planted seeds that have sprouted like i said but i still have the one potted plant which i think im just gonna keep in the pot. I just really am not sure about the whole fertilizer thing. Like ive heard Ferts were bad. Is that true? And i know people use like bat guano or other kinds of shit and where would i even buy something like that?Im just really confused about what im supposed to do during each stage of growing. ill put up some pics tonight to show my situation. And i think i might have something eating my plant in my pot so i could use some help with that. I think its a spider because that pretty much the only thing that could get in my lanai i think.

Ummm victor im 19 soon to be 20. This was just an old name that i knew id remember. And i didnt say im using random dirt now. Im using Organic Top Soil for the seeds and i picked up a different top soil for the plant in the pot. I just wanted to know of any specific fertilizers i could use or if anyone had any other outside advice or something i might have missed.

What could i buy at like Lowes that would help with root development. Do you suggest i move the potted plant with the sprouts? How do you know how much fertilizer to use on each plant? I dont wanna burn my plant so ill probably go with organic and thats the kinda soil i used. Im not sure if my plant in the pot is growing as fast as it should be cause im not really sure how old it is.

Ok check out some soil grow journals and please up date the screen name. Its nothing against you, forums like this have to be careful or risk getting closed down. Welcome to the forum. VV

Brand New Pics of my grow. I took all my seedlings out of the old soil and put in some horseshit and more soil and waited until they were a tiny bit stronger and the roots developed. Tell me what you think. I think i had spider mites on my biggest plant so i took care of them with some spray.

That storm passed a while ago. They are fine now and i think they will be ok to any storm really because where they are has a great draining system and drains out into my yard.
