I looks like not very good soil, you are probably over watering and you probably had the lights too close. I would definitely grow those under 18/6 as your seedlings don't need that much light I might even consider getting a t5 or t8 for it because a 4ft t8 florescent from walmart with bulbs...

When you top dress and water a lot of stuff will leach down into the soil also new roots will grow into the top dress

Break it up and top dress with some worm castings/compost

They might be meal worms. When I bought worms last time I also got a couple meal worms and some black soldier flies. The people who sell worms tend to produce/sell other types of worms for fishing, composting, reptiles, etc. The meal worms I picked out the soldier flies got fried by my bug...

I started using rice hulls I really like them and they are cheap another option I have been looking into is zeolite. I still have a ton of perlite in my soil but as it breaks down I have been adding rice hulls. Zeolite is interesting because its highly porous, houses microbes, absorbs heavy...

Here are a couple places to get hypoaspis miles they are predator mites and will eat the fungus gnat larva I have these in my soil and rarely see gnats. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KEhSjRiEnnI...

Still put them in the ones that are still alive will repopulate. You will know in a couple of days if you need more or not.

Take your oat meal or if you have dogs/cats use ground up dry dog/cat food wet it down to where its moist but not super wet and let it sit in a tupperware with no lid or just barely on to keep it moist for a few days to a week and it will start to grow fungus and it will become a cake of fungus...

You beat me to it Rrog...

Yeah that would work and much more labor/cost effective. Thanks!

Its working good, I do have a pan on the bottom its just a cement tray but you can use anything. The only thing I would change on mine is I would like to have handles either cut in or attached and I am going to add felt pads to the corners of each tray to give a little more air exchange. I have...

I would leave a note with some suggestions on how to cover the top to be compliant. I would hate to drive by one day and see them getting busted or hear it on the news and know I could have helped them with a few words. This is just me, I understand where everyone else is coming from.

I am not a big fan of xtreme, I have not seen as good as results with it as a good all around myco with bact/trichoderma. I try to find the cheapest I can online with as wide of spectrum as I can. From what I understand all the companies get their mycorrhizal fungi from the same company and just...

Thought I would add when you harvest castings you tend to harvest the worm cocoons too because they are roughly the same size. So if you are trying to increase your population in your worm bin and not in your plants once you have harvested your worm castings put your castings/cocoons in a tray...

Yeah there is hardware cloth on the bottom of each. It allows the worms to migrate but for the most part the compost/worm castings stay in place.

I take cuts from clones as long as you have a healthy environment this shouldn't be a problem. You can also keep a plant fairly small just by keeping it in a small container I have kept clones in party cups for months before when I needed too < I don't necessarily suggest it, something slightly...

Looks like a cool spot. I will be looking for land in the next few years up north. Me and some friends plan on getting 20-30 acres and starting a permaculture farm. Let me know how it goes.

Thought I would throw up my version of the stackable trays. I had some compost ready to add so I thought I would give my worm farm a sieve and ended up with about 25 gal of castings. Here are my stackable trays I just made this a week or so ago and have only 1 side filled but my worms seem to...

Well that maybe but the whiff I get from my Hippy Private Stash brings back memories of the 2001 CCup and I know I had the Red Grapefruit cut then. It has an unforgettable taste and smell and is probably the best tasting weed I have ever had. We will see once she flowers but like I said this is...
