    A Great First Time Grow

    I trucked in 3 yard of mushroom compost which was tilled in 24" deep through the whole yard. Then I used Fox Farm Ocean in each hole. It was an incredible amount of work, especially because the whole yard was nothing but 6' tall weeds. Seems to be paying off though. This is my first grow...

    Are you kidding me?! Are your plants suspending that weighted bucket?! Mine couldn't do that. The other day I was at the grow store talking to the "experts" about how some of my plants branches seem a bit to "hollow" like a straw (see pics) and they suggested silicone additive to boost cell...

    VG, I see in your pictures an write up that you add tons of mulch, you yourself said as much as a foot sometimes. It appears in your pictures that you are adding you lawn clippings as mulch (grass). Im I correct? I know grass has a ton of nitrogen, but doesn't that much grass sitting around...
