4th quarter for harvesting.... barren sign good for harvesting....fire sign is best.... Aquarius one of 12 signs of the Moon.

1st quarter good for planting... Fruitful sign means good for planting.

Barren is time when things won't germ or grow well. Bad for planting.



I'll copy my How to Garden By the Moon thread at IcMag and copy it here for ya when I get a chance!

Day 7 Clone Update! I have Roots! It's Alive!

Hey Gang, I'm so happy! My first purebred clone! Checked on the girls etc., a little while ago and guess what! My first roots! Whoopee!

I used those Jiffy pellets, rooting hormone and now have roots busting out the sides of the Jiffy pellet on my first clone!

Can't wait to go to sleep and wake up in the morning. I will run to the clone chamber like a kid on Christmas morning, to check for more roots on more clones. It's like Christmas eve all over here....

Never thought the Jiffy pellets would work so great! All the clones look perky, growing, and sassy! So I am assuming that they have all rooted, just don't have roots outside the Jiffy pellets yet.

I love clones,....they are the best thing I have learned to do so far!


Thanks for stopping by The Moon Garden!

So I take it that the cloning is going well......

[loco81]

just curious but how long in the jiffy pellots? i am trying them now to day 6 no roots yet

[LolaGal]

Loco, I noticed first roots on Day 7! Day 8 and I had multiple roots showing from multiple plants.

California Orange Bud clones easily!

White Rhino showing roots near the top of the Jiffy pellet, few roots on bottom of Jiffy pellet.....

WeedHound: Yup! Cloning good GREAT!



Went to civilization yesterday, got the mule team out and all....

GREAT DEAL AT WALLY WORLD!: Found in the gardening section, hidden in corner...BAMBOO STAKES, 4 feet long 25 of them for $2.50!!! Don't know if this is seasonal or not, but just what I was looking for! They are all dyed a nice bright hideous green as well....Pretty pretty. They only had a few bags of them, so go to WalMart and get some QUICK!


Also got some more Jiffy pellets, pots, seedling soil.... As usual went to 3 major stores and NO dirt other than that stupid Miracle Grow Dirt....dagnabbit....... Guess it's Nashville if I want to get Fox Farm Soil.

Thanks for the good wishes DTR! I'm sure loving this good bargain! I've been vegging this batch since Nov 16th and still ain't flipped em! OH NO!!

Moon Sign Book predicts TORNADOS all Spring for my area!!! I didn't have much faith in their weather forecasting, but after the big Ice Storm here, I looked and they had only missed it by 3 DAYS! So hoping the Tornados get somebody else! (Sorry to say that, but scared Moon Sign Book is right, don't want no Tornadie a-gettin' me again!)

Run out to Wally World everybody and get ya'll some of these great bamboo stakes! What a bargain!!!!

STAY TUNED FOR PICS! Got some new pics ready my medical grow!!! Will post some pics as soon as I catch a good internet wave on dialup!
