    First coco grow what's up with my seedlings

    Yes... exactly. Just people trying to make money wanting to differentiate their product from others by bunging in this or that. More absolute bollox written by people who know better but just want to sell you expensive rubbish. Like the guy I replied to earlier with his "1000 watt" LED that...

    First coco grow what's up with my seedlings

    It's the medium. It must have fertilisers in it. You can see the burn. First, coco watering is just flood and drain. It's basically hydro. Secondly, don't buy coco with anything mixed in. I grew for years in straight coco just using normal commercial fertilisers and had excellent results. There...

    We had Bruno the St Bernard before we adopted the Springers. Bruno was nothing like Beethoven. He was more like Cujo. The alpha male of his litter, he worried me, too. One time in the park he was attacked by a Rottweiler, it did not go well for the other dog. The vet told us that a good...

    Hi from Mexico

    Spending $1,000 on growing is a lot, unless you intend setting up a high tech indoor grow! You can do it very cheaply if you need to. For instance, using a few sizes of plastic water pipe, pipe joints, glue, and thick plastic sheet, You can build a hoop greenhouse for 6 to 8 plants at quite a...

    different landrace species from different times

    I've been growing Mexican sativas for about 20 years or so and I've found cultivars that were degenerated originals, now useless, a lot of mediocre cultivars, and a couple that I've adopted and also crossed. As an example of a degenerated original, I came across a strand that was very trippy and...

    Biden Screws Up

    Why are these homeless camps all over the USA but I don't see them in Mexico? It's rare for me to see a homeless person here and when I do I give them some money. I don't see tents in the street or anything like that. Maybe someone can explain. But in fact I recently saw figures that say there...

    Hi from Mexico

    Not yet. Sounds super nice. At 1,600m altitude I can manage that. My limit is 2,200 - above that I get altitude sickness. Still a boomtown. I moved out to escape the pollution. Living there is like smoking a pack of cigarettes every day. Seriously... my lungs ached for days after I moved, just...
