Thanks Bro -    Nice improvement. I guess the 'attach files' button will appear with each new post I create?

If so, please recommend one that doesn't keep deleting pics. If not, please teach me the new - to me - method.    Ta!  :party:   Also, why can't I edit some of my posts? Is there a time limit?

HA! Can't believe you guys are in the USA and Thailand and can search South African sites better than me!  ;)  :dance:  :dance:

      There we go! Thanks, THP  :party:

Good point SL -    Reckon I'll go with both, too... ;)

Jeez- glad you asked... I'd already bought the cloves!  :sick:

Nice tip...I was wondering about the 'extras'..!

Fine post with some great pics which will certainly help me!   Thanks, Bud!

That looks very interesting, though I note how it evolved over the first 12 pages! I'll certainly give it a try, though using Dorset Nagas that I have just grown! (Our Summer has just ended...)   Many Thanks, OP  :party:

Hi Salsalady   I live in South Africa, and no-one I can find in the kitchen equipment business has ever heard of a ph meter. I can, of course, import one if I can find someone willing to ship to SA - no easy matter - but I was wondering if I could get by with some of the other methods you...

 

Hi queequeg -    Insulation so that I can both control temps more easily and also limit cost...kinda like an incubator.    However, I'm not certain I should leave the plants in the fridge once they germinate...perhaps I should have a second set up, but I'm leaning to using the fridge for both...

That sounds ideal, flexy123 -    The one caveat I have to spending any real loot indoors, is that I live in a really hot part of the world, so will only use artificial lighting for the first 6-8 weeks of the pre-season, after which I will move everything outside... Would you still recommend...

Ja Boet -    I'm actually planning to do a fair bit of drilling, for lighting units, power in general and a thermostat, but unless I guess wrong, there is no freon in the walls of the fridge, but just in the pipes inside. Sound about right?

I've just read the entire thread and now have no idea whatsoever what form of lighting is currently best for   A/ starting seedlings B/ growing plants indoors.   Is there a latest concensus?  Since different countries may not have specific brand names and codes, if there any chance of a few...

Hi All -    For years I've been threatening to convert a defunct refrigerator into a housing in which I can start seedlings under lights and I now have three donated fridges and no more excuses!   Anyone done this before, and if threads exist, can you poke me in the right direction? I'm...

Wonderful replies - thank you all!   I will certainly try each of the methods which are clearly varied paths to the same temple and see which one works best for me.   My dealer just contacted me with the news that she has some seeds for me so I am raring to go!  ;)

Hiya   I seem to have an inordinate amount of bad luck with this branch of the tree... Either I'm planting seeds which are not viable, or I'm doing it wrong, so let me ask:   How long do you leave seeds in germination trays before dumping them as unviable? (Obviously this is after the...

No ppm tester in these here parts, I'm afraid. :-) 10% sounds really popular on the various forums, but I think the chamomile tea might get hi-jacket into a hot mug en route! Best tea ever! Thanks, lads!

My seedlings have shown some signs of dampness/mould on the soil and someone suggested Hydrogen peroxide. Will this help prevent damping problems? If so, what dosage and how is best to dose? Thanks, all!
