    what temp to make canna butter?

    you can calibrate your oven though, like if you do want it to be accurate? so, to be just like the pros, put an oven thermometer in your oven and turn it on to say 300, wait until the burner shuts off (gas, listen to hiss stopping, electric listen to thermostat click off). loosen the small set...

    can you plant seeds right after you harvest them?

    if the seeds are ready they will fall off the plant when you shake it. they will be dry at that point and ready to plant. but i just read somewhere on the internet to leave them in a dark, cold and drafty room with the tv on for 6 months to simulate winter.

    Miracle-Gro Liquid Houseplant Food

    i'll probably be attacked for saying it but i tried scotts potting soil and was really disappointed. i filled a wheel barrow with it and planted spices and peppers. planted the same seeds in my personal mix in the garden and the garden plants grew twice as big. my mix started as some quality...

    Strains for Colorado mountains

    the problem i have is that the growing season is about 3 1/2- 4 months long here at 7000'. just as the plants get into flowering it frosts and that's it. of course auto/dwarf plants make it but by the time the light is 12/12 it is frosting every other night and it doesn't do any good to start...

    Controlling light outside

    rather than grow 7' plants that freeze before they bud, i was thinking of covering a plant with a dark trash can when it gets dark, then uncovering in the morning to make 12/12. anyone try something like this? some plants are already 3' high. j
