Dec 30th, 2015 - Had two plants same size and dropped extension chord on one and broke the stalk so i tied it to a shishkabob stick in hopes it will grow back.

I will be updating this thread once a week

about to order a few more seeds, wanting a max yielding auto and was looking into the northern lights X big buds. I want a stable strain with strong genetics of a sativa, any suggestions?

So come to find out my shiskabob stick fixed the plant that I broke!
The other lady is growing like a wild fire and loving the nutes.

Now, the one that broke and healed itself back doesn't look like its growing anymore roots.

Also, I have my homemade rez blackout with black T-shirts wrapped around the rez lol.
