minigroww
started grow question 5y ago
I have noticed what seem to be roots poking up through the substrate really close to the stem. Is this normal or should I be worried?

They are just reaching for moisture, nothing to worry about. Once they get established anything above soil will harden up.

Quiebre de tallo principal
No subí foto de como quedó el tallo quebrado después de la tormenta, ya que ni bien la ví le puse tierra en una maceta nueva hasta el cotileidon que fue que quedó recta sola. Hubiese Sido mejor un tutor o guía? O está bien cubrir el tallo de tierra hasta el primer cotileidon?

Adding soil to the new roots on stem
Hello everyone, after the night I noticed that there are a lot of new roots trying to grow from stem. I know this is ok, but I wonder can I add some soil on top of the existing to help develop these roots? Won't it cause stem rot? I want to fill the space in my pot

Root loss shock?
Can I do anything?! I had her in with another seedling for the 1st 14 days and when I went to transplant them into their own pots their roots were completely entwined around each other. I tried to separate them but a good chunk of roots came away. They have both wilted badly!

Cutting the bottom of biodegradable pots ?
And when I will put them in the large 30l pots within 1 week, I am thinking of cutting the bottom of the biodegradable pots (because I have read that sometimes the roots have trouble getting through). Is it a good idea ?

How to get feminised plants to flower
How do I get my feminised plants to start flowering outside / greenhouse? I'm a bit of a newbie to growing my own and thought I'd brought Autoflowers but I've realised that they're not. They are very big now (White Widow) and not started flowering like my others did.

Cloning advice. Why do I always kill these things?
Hey guys, first time cloning and I'm not sure if I'm correct. Clonex gel, small cuttings (gift). Slapped them into riot rooters and sprayed them with RO water in a propagation kit. Just not sure how often I spray or if the heat pad is to hot, do they even need light? Thanks!

Wood chips or spent mushroom straw?
So, woodchips, I know starve the soil of nitrogen, at first. From my understanding in the long run it would be more beneficial? I'm moving to full organic in the next run and from there on so any references would be very helpful!

Molasses when watering or no ? I know people use it for compost tea & flushing but I’ve been using it in my water (1 tbsp) for past few watering. Should I do this or just use it for flushing?
