If you don't try, you won't succeed.... if you throw it out, it will not grow.... which do you think you should do?! Good luck!

I never put seeds in paper towel. Too risky.

Chances of survival are slim when the taproot is damaged, but still it wouldn't hurt to try.

Root Wizard or nah?
Was contemplating purchasing some type of root inoculation stuff. Considering this is my first grow and going with just base nutrients. How important will a root inoculation solution be? And just in general?

Flawless Finish in a organic crop
Given the characteristics of organic cultivation and that this is sustained in the microbial life of the soil, is it advisable to water this last week with Flawless Finish (I have always used that product in my other crops with the top crop range)? Happy crop to all.

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.

problems with root washing
it's been almost 6 days since I washed the roots and the pot continues to seem heavy (even touching the ground you can feel it is still wet underneath) Do I keep waiting for it to dry completely? is there any trick to speed up this process?

Why plants are growing differently
Same strain different growth rates and patterns. One plant is shorter and wider while the other plant is taller. Basically the same amount of leaves. The shorter and wider plant was repotted a week sooner in cycle. Could that be the reason? Or genetics?

Friends, help me understand what the problem of the plant is!!
I can not understand that with plants different tips come most people think that the problem is nitrogen! Others say it's zinc or cal-mag! I can't decide how to properly help the plant! I also thought maybe it's too much blowing inside the box!?

Honey for root growth.
Wondering if anyone has ever used honey to promote rooting when planting germinated (cracked) seeds. Read that honey helps as a natural root enhancer. Only tried once so far as a test but seems not to hurt the seed, if dont do anything else. Wondering if anyone else does this?
