    Neem/Flowers

    It's been a few weeks since I've posted anything..mainly due to the fact that everything has been going well lol. Well..sort of. My Habs have been flowering well, so with this rain every day I've done some pollinization works with the plants such as shaking and using a small paintbrush. I've got...

    Which plants have produced during heat? Which ones shut down?

    My ghosts started showing growth and dropping flowers when the heat here in Florida started rising. I've since but them (and my habs) in a shade house. My tscorps seem to absolutely live the heat and even being younger plants than my ghosts, they've already surpassed then in size and they are in...

    no idea, multiple things....

    Prehensile, thanks for the white fly tip. I thoroughly enjoyed watching them all die. The infestation my plants had was far worse than i thought, but it's all going away nicely now!

    What mineral spray/home remedy for the white flies? I can't seem to keep them at bay by just squashing and removing them

    another flower drop thread :)

    With the mention of the rain i keep them from getting soaked by it. But the other day they for pounded with a heavy rain for a good 15 before i woke up and went rain dancing to get them inside. Maybe they for overly watered then. I did give them fert (about half dose of mg and half dose of fish...

    another flower drop thread :)

    So, learning from here i know flower drop isn't anything to worry about, i kind of expected to see it when my plants started. However, all if my flowers dropped within two days on all my plants. This can't be normal right? All at once? I don't have a single flower left and no hints if new ones...

    Plant Support

    I know I've seen a topic on here about using bamboo, or wooden stakes to help support your plants. At first I didnt think I would need either, however my plants are going from this      to this      I've tried mounding the soil around the base, but it doesn't seem to help. Obviously it gets...
