Wife and I got into a big argument and she put the two females that I have growing into a plantic bag roots netpots and all.....I took them out of the bag and replanted them but they look real droopy,,,,what else can I do to them ...They where only in the bag for approx. 1 hour doesn't look like any damage to the roots....1 of the plants has a broken stem at the first node. I removed that one..I really hope they surrvive...should I keep lights on or continue to switch 12/12... I am really depressed....don't get marrried PLease some advise would be helpfull and greatly appreciated!!!!DAMMIT

Use whatever light cycle you had them on before the problem and pray.
Everything should be fine just water then and hope they don't get to stressed or shocked. Plants are strange that way, sorry.
I hope for the best in your plants and your marriage dude. I have been married for over 25 years now; it's harder work then growing that's for sure.

don't woory, Zandor is right on, i've had a couple of mishaps in the past...like the res siphoning dry a couple of weeks ago...just do as Z says everything should be alright...
I hate to say this, but if the wife will do that to you after all this work, then maybe you should sell your equipment, before she does something/an argument that makes it to the street and you get busted!!!...I feel for you friend...another thing is growing is no different than owning a racecar! they love it when it's clean and shiny, but when you got to spend night nafter night getting it ready for sunday then mama get's antsy...just make sure you take her to dinner every couple of weeks...goodluck

My cousin had a problem with his marriage and had to get rid of it all, also lost 2 jobs on piss test. Good pay, that pissed her off. She doesn't smoke but she takes prozac and a few others like candy. If you can't BEAT them join them. Hope they recover both of them ( wife too). OH yea that's how I ended up with his 400 HPS. My first hydro grow makes his look sick any way. He listened to stupid friends and not do his home work like us. I had a prob with the wife at first but I don't buy any more cause I don't know anyone that deals, getting old and having a heart attack at 43 sucks, a few years ago. Best friend and smokin buddy just died of cancer. No more friends, sucks. No one but my brother knows and he can't smoke (job). If no one knows and you don't sell the dank kind bud how they going to catch you. All for me, so she's not too worried now. It's the whole point of stealth.
If they came and took it all away right now I am still way, way ahead. LOL

Try this method dude! try to get your wife interested in what your doing,kinda kiss ass,include her into helping to get great plants,wouldn't it be nice for wife and husband growe together! my wife is cool with my grows she doesn't smoke it herself but is cool with it all the same,and everynow and then I let her grow minature tomatoe plants under my hsp lol......good luck dude,try to envovlve your wife with the grow....perhaps she may feel different towards your little operation if she hand her womenly expert opinions in there!.good luck....grow her someflowers..............now my wife does complain sometimes that I spend alot of time in the grow room lol,but at the sametime she is glad I aint spending my time in a drinking club.....

my first successful grow was the one i posted here...2-3 months before i join here i planted 7 B-52's and 10 power plants 100%....i grew them vegetatively only...i say only because i threw them away as i was kinda scared that my g/f would found out that i was growing cannabis and leave me, dump me...
then i couldn't sleep at nights.....i told her what happened...she told me that ot's ok to grow as long as i'm safe take care in general....apart from smoking cannabis and cigarettes i don't have any other ''bad'' habits.....so after a while she was watering my plants....what i am trying to say here is that my g/f thought that that's what i want to do and that's me, she did not try to change me, of course she was worried a bit but seeing me looking after my plants made her understand that this was what i liked to do, this is in other words my hobby, and what a hobby huh? the best one i've ever had so far;)

this thread is not about growing pot, it's about kissing your old lady's ass and groveling to do the things you like. Sucks for you guys. My girlfriend loves my grow cabinet. I amaze her with my progress everytime she peers in. If she didn't like it, or threatened to use it against me like you guys, Then I would stop seeing her.
This is the hydroponics message board right??

My wife is fine with my grows too, i'm luck that way.
You are right SC this is the hydroponics part of the message board. We are also people too. Most of us spend most of our time getting to know people in this part of the forum and we feel more comfortable talking off topic with people we know. The lounge if full of kiddies so there are post like this. Personally I don't have a problem with them and I understand why sometime people post other off topics in the grow area as well. This started as plant question but the back-story was his relationship. People just chimed and that's part of being in a group. imo.

I agree with Z...We have become a fairly tight knit community and watch each others back, we actually almost chat here sometimes when we all surf the forums at the same time... why, is there so much hydro info that we are neglecting...anyone else out there feel your hydro needs are going unattended, because we have enough compassion to support a man in crisis? I've got the time...and by the way, SC, I'm lucky to have an ol' lady too...
