They still have well over a month until they will begin flowering judging by the light in my location, and I have heard that if a plant has a attack during its vegetative state, it still can come back around and maybe even help boost the budding. Is someone lying to me? I feel like a rapist just kidnapped my children and I'm not sure if I am ever going to see them grow to their full potential.Thanks


...Rest in piece lower 25% of plant...
Epic! What I do to avoid slugs and other ground pests is..... use those little blue plastic kiddie pools. Fill it up with your medium and make a few holes for drainage and bam... you got some high tech gear.

I used to have a mice and slug problem when growing outdoor. Mice were knawing holes into the bases of my outdoor plants and making burrows up in the stems, it was crazy. I felt so violated... a lot like you did. Those little blue pools saved me a lot of hassle and they are hella cheap to buy. Get the ones with the curled lip and slugs cant make it over the side. You can make sure of it by lining the bottom in salt. Lol. :thumbsup:
