  Wow - weeds will actually serve a purpose.  I'll tell family members not to pull them.   Now I am getting very worried about the rest of the plant's life.  The storm (winds?) clearly killed one of the first set of true leaves.  I do see one other leaf coming in, but not the other.  If the...

Bad news:   There was a very bad storm this past Wednesday which damaged the plant.  It has recovered a little with some new growth:     Can somebody confirm that these are weeds (clovers I suspect) and not some odd offshoot of the plant:       I'm still hoping for the best, but with the slow...

I just left the family garden and won't be back until late June or sometime in July, so no more daily updates for a while.  I will be posting, but am not going to expect family members to be as obsessed about the plant as I am and send me pictures every day.  Maybe if I forget about it for a...

I was able to stop the dog from licking the leaves.  Maybe this was a mistake.  Perhaps some chemicals in his saliva would have caused it to start growing:  

Still no progress.  I loosened up the soil a bit.

Two days ago, I thought I saw the second set of true leaves coming in; now I'm not so sure.  It spent the second day (fist full day) outside with good sun, but I don't see any progress.  The first set of true leaves is healthy, but it's time to move on. The plant sprouted 29 days ago and I think...

Ty - I could have gone with something smaller.  It was a long day - I had to start planting the rest of the family garden - Cucumbers, Tomatoes, Lettuce, and various herbs.  I was dead in the middle of the day and just found the container in the yard.  I'm OK with the size, but the weight's a...

Finally, a new outdoor home.  I have no idea how many gallons this container holds, but it currently weighs 54.5 pounds! I didn’t listen to Canedog’s advice and went with a mix heavy in composted manure:   75% composted manure – 25% potting soil:   Composted Manure – NPK: Not listed. Ingredients...

Sad, Sad, Sad.

Finally, this slow grower is evolving.  The second cotyledon leaf fell off and it appears that the second set of true leaves is finally starting to come in.  I feel like manually adjusting the leaves to undo the slight wrap over to make it easier for them to push through, but it’s probably best...

Great thread!   I've always enjoyed growing things.  Just to be able to put a bean in soil and watch it sprout is fascinating.  Sometime around 2009, I came across a YouTube video (probably this one - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaEjcY30wgY) of Neil from The Hippy Seed Company...

Ty,   2015 was my best harvest ever - The bucket grow produced an abundance of pods:   220 PDN X Bhut 160 Yellow 7 Pot   I was blessed with a very mild fall in 2015. The PDN X Bhut produced pods until December 12th and the Yellow 7 until December 19th!  It's extremely unlikely that 2019 will...

The plant got six hours of sun today. It's ready for the real world:  

I had a fan on the plant and it nearly knocked one of the cotyledon leaves completely off.  I shut the fan off and am just going to let the leaf dangle in place until it falls off by itself.  At first I was really pissed,but then realized that a normal outside wind would have done the same...
