    Arthritis and Topical oil?

    I have a friend who's developing arthritis, so I was thinking of donating my trim oil, mixing it up with some coconut oil, for her to apply direct on to her knuckles etc. Some advice on it's efficacy (Oo!

    Sprouted Hemp Seed Tea?

    Hemp seed. This has to be the most effective for spouted seed tea surely? I bought a couple of pounds of hemp seed on FeeBay,, so I just put a cup on to soak... Any thoughts? (Are hemp seeds even legal to buy in the states? :confused: I got mine from a fishing store )

    Biochar F**k up?

    I just happened to read someone the other day saying how their parents used biochar back in the day. They'd mix un-inoculated biochar (well I guess that'd be charcoal then?) in to the soil and watch the nutrients get sucked out of the weeds. A couple of years later and the "biochar" was good and...

    Chloramine...

    I've seen a few videos on YouTube, read a few threads about chloramine (as opposed to chlorine) not being harmful to the soil web. It all seems to be debatable at the moment so I've always added "aquasafe" to my water to neutralize it. Which is a pain in the arse/ass to be honest..and does not...

    America's guns and the Euro View point?....

    We hear very little this side of the Atlantic ocean about US gun law, or, indeed, US gun culture (yep; that's how it is portrayed in the media over here)..maybe a "nutter shoots colleagues" kind of thing at the end of the TV news.... We understand the point of armed revolution against an...

    What the Actual?!...

    I've never seen this before. Strips of necrosis running across my fan leafs, only here and there, and on 2/8 plants, but slowly increasing, and seems to be concentrated where the oscillating fan has the most effect. All the other plants are fine, all growing in my regular organic soil mix...

    UK Tap Water and Chlorine/Chloramine...

    Just been trying to find out whether chlorine or chloramine is in my local tap water (it's chloramine :wall:) Unlike chlorine, chloramine doesn't evaporate so bubbling or leaving out achieves nothing. Anyway, the last time I tried to find out the water company was extremely cagey (freedom of...

    Incredible Bulk....

    Flipping heck! This lives up to it's name. 6 1/2 oz from one plant in a 15 gallon organic soil.... I can't really report too much on how she grew out because I thought she was a White Widow x Big Bud. Which I grow a lot. So, like WW x BB, she does a steady grow, gets a bit hungry. I grew out...

    Aloe Vera care...

    I've been buying Aloe Vera from the health food shop, figured I ought to get myself an actual plant. Any pointers on looking after them? I put one in my grow tent once, but it didn't seem to like that... strange; since the giant ones I saw in Spain seem to be liking the sun....:confused:
