A Few months ago I saw a Noob on site who was making a right Mess of his grow.....16 days old.....no more than the first set of leaves in...yellow...red stem..stumpy........Hot Compo....IMO.
One of the Boy Racers growers....researched everything........wanting the fert the fluck out of a seedling.
He was suggesting all this advanced kit to try to correct it....and all the Helpers were Supporting his choices....go buy more and more KIT..
No-one but no-one said to him Trash them...start again with some Non Hot seedling compo.....and get your bloody Basics in...before you even Try the Tricks....
I was jumping up and down behind the screen....but I walked away Thinking.....if someone is Killing their plants...are we Ruder by not saying anything.......than we are by being Straight about the cause and telling them to Dial it back.....?.....
