Putting worms in pots?
I dug up a fire pit 2 weekends ago and was able to keep a bunch of worms that I’ve been up keeping for 2 weeks. Is it good for the plants if I put some of those worms in the pots with them?

Store pollen inside the pollen bags.
We removed some clones from our cinderella99 and used colloidal silver to generate pollen. Can we store pollen inside the pollen bags themselves in the freezer, or do we need to dust them all off first?

Green sulfer bacteria question
During my last experiment have cultured green sulfur bacteria. I usually just toss it when this happens... but I have a gallon of it are there any benefits of using it in my garden? I can't seem to see any solid research articles about green sulfer bacteria in the garden.

Nutrients for flower change
When should I start giving flower nutrients? Can I wait a bit more and give the grow parts ? What is a good indication to start changing the nutes? There are already bud formations starting.

Broke main stem on Auto :(
While performing LST i snapped the main stem completely between node 2 and 3. I fixed the two parts together again and used a plastic tube and plant tie to secure it back. It seems to be holding well. Did this ever happen to anyone on an auto ? Will it survive ?

Hello fellow grower, What do you think i can expect in terms of grams of cannabis in conjunction with my lamp: a Mars Hydro TS 600, a hydro setup and a 60 cm x 60 cm x 160 cm tent. I would really like to hear from you guys and girls. Cheers!
