I would ask some soil guys before you do it. Wouldn't want them to eat the roots.

Just upgraded from two 18" uvb tubes to four tubes. Switched the Uvb bulbs (had regular in for picture taking) in and turned them on.
Two made a good difference before hopefully four with two pairs facing back to back on the mover should get pretty even coverage.

Update on the fat sativa:
Just occasionally break any branches that stand up back down. Today I fimed the three shoots that were closest to the edges.
Also it has been six days since I turned on the UVB. The stink from the bloom cabinet is much more pronounced already.

We will be smoking and fishing for Canada day for sure.
I like where you are going with this question, I really do. I have often wondered if that would be ok to do. My guess is no. Some worms are composters. I think they would eat the roots. Other worms may not harm the plant, but would the nutes kill them, leaving decaying material with the roots? I don't think that would be good for the plant either. What we did was order a composter for inside. We puree all of our usable waste for the compost. The worms eat the food, make it into castings, and they also make worm tea. The tea is a good organic fertilizer for the mj plants. We also compost all of our plant waste so we can use it to feed future mj plants. It doesn't smell when the lid is on the composter. It's so neat little system. I hope this info helps you.ok stupid question 999,999,999 what would happen if i added a dozen earth worms to a 15 gallon pot with plants in it
?

Some pics from week 8 of 12/12z
White widow moved to front right and amnesia haze to tear right to make it easier to work on the widow. Widow is now in straight water dwc for last week to flush. Other plants have two weeks to go except amnesia haze which has 4 maybe. Amnesia haze has gone from yellow leaves to brown leaves. Not sure why it's unhappy. Temps are a
Little higher than normal at 32C, trying to get that down a little.

Thanks. Feeling good about most of it except for amnesia haze, not sure if it will make it another 4 weeks, it is self defoliating hard.

Was hitting 33C which is way too high so added a small air conditioner to the room where cabinets are. Temps now down to 29c lights on and 21c off. So temps problem solved with $128 AC unit. Should have done it sooner, even if only need it 2-3 months a year. This grow has not been optimum due to over temps. Next time should be better.

Oh and to clarify was hitting 33c in top of canopy in bloom
Cabinet. Ambient air temps in room that the Cabinets are in was 26c before, now 21-22c.

OG you always have quality buds in your garden. I always love coming to look at your purple colored plants. Cheers

It seems the UVB lamps enhance the purple colours. Certainly isn't cold. Had problems with too much heat his time. Solved it with the small ac unit though.

After an eight day dwc in plain water I have just cut and washed and hung white widow. It's only a small plant (3 week veg) but I look forward to trying it out.
Flush on the rest started yesterday with plain water in my hydro res. They will harvest next week. Probably will harvest amnesia haze then too. It's not close to ready yet (needs a few more weeks) but all leaves died in the overheating. Any more browning and it will be of buds as there are no leaves left. So I will hharvest it. If it smokes well great, if not it goes in the hash bin.
Next batch will be better now that an AC is setup specifically for the grow room. Will be able to keep everything perfect for the whole grow then. 20-30C. No more hitting 33-34c during heat waves.
