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.

NLXBB Is she Rootbound? Drinking 2 L a day in 2 Gal Airpot
My NL x BB is drinking about 2 liters a day. The top leaves aren't up as often these days. They are almost always in a constant state of going up and down. Can she possibly be rootbound in an airpot? Or it's just the fluctuations of wet > dry going sooo fast every day?

Hello there. I planted the seeds in small cups and on the third day I saw small insects in the soil. Then I removed the tiny seedlings and planted them in clean soil. Is this the right job? Isn't it too early? Please help me?

hydrogen peroxide to do or not to do that is the question?
anyone have any positive results from using hydrogen peroxide in their resevior tank. im sure if your using organic nutes its probably not a great idea because HP breaks down organic matter into o2 but im not using organic nutes and my thought was to use it to control alge?

Super low runoff PH, even after corrective measures being taken. Plant otherwise okay, but probably isn't taking all her nutrients.
My runoff PH has been hitting mid-5s, even after flushing (w/ & w/o additive). Been trying to raise with higher PH water, used 7.25PH water today and the runoff was still 5.56. She looks healthy other than some discoloration in some leaves, so it isn't killing her but.....????

Leaning Plant /
Could really do with some advice on the lean if anyone has any? Should I dig her up very carefully before her root mass gets too big and try to straighten her out? Should I put a little gardening stick in there and tie the stem to it to support her? See comment for more info.

Seedling Root Still in Seed Shell
I was inspecting my seeds this morning and looking through the r soil I noticed that the root of the XL Kush (2) is still in the seed but the leaves have popped through the soil. Is this anything I need to be concerned about or will it naturally work itself out?

Root aphids or mosquito larvae/fly? I really have no idea what they are, it's my first experience in hydro. They float in the water, I don't know if they cause harm or if they help, also what they provoke, where they come from, and how to get rid of them. They've been there for a while. Thanks
