I don't know if this is the correct section for this type of question but here I go. I have search for information but I'm kind of clueless about what is happening to my seedling. The strain is a GDP and I'm growing in soil.

I've been kicking the idea around about using aquarium activated carbon in my next mix of soil later down the road. I've read some benifits to adding coal to soil related to gardening. So I'm curious if anyone else has tried it & has wisdom to share. In my current grow I mixed some carbon into...

So I bought one of those cheap little Moisture/pH/Light probes, it was like 5 bucks so I figured it might be useful for the moisture part at least--I have a tendency to over-water. I also wanted to see what the pH of the soil was though so I was kind of looking forward to that, but it doesn't...

I have a question about rooting. I start my clippings in the Peet pucks. Once roots start to show they go into solo cups, than into 1 gallon pots then to 5 gallon pots. What would be a good additive to add to the water to help along strong vigorous growth?
