I am about to be in the same room with the legend.... Aesop Rock!!!!!  He has the most unique individual words used in his body of work than any other hip hop artist by far... and a study has indicated he has (at least if you compare their published work) a larger vocabulary than Shakespeare.  7...

I have been worm farming for 7 years now.  I currently have 640 gallons of worm farm.  I am moderately experienced with vermicomposting.     I guess it is true that you could very well have a different species from what I am used to,which would produce different shaped castings!  

Yeah, the thing is with worm castings... to be able to use them as a growing medium in its pure from, you need to keep the soil at an even moisture throughout its life (which requires frequent small waterings (too much attention.) I make my own castings and happen to amend them with a variety of...

Yeah the media in the pot looks very much like peat moss.  Also... outdoor conditions are much different from indoor conditions.  If you are sprouting seeds outdoors, I can see worm castings as being a more viable option.  However, the same media indoors would give you much different results.  ...

When plants are mature and transplanted into a raised bed or directly into the ground in full sun, worm castings make a fine medium on their own.  However, seedlings have more sensitive requirements with regard to moisture content and soil porosity. 

      For real...do not plant your seeds into miracle gro!!!!! Hahaha  I will be sowing my seeds on Feb 1 ;-)   <3

Miracle Gro All Purpose 24-8-16.   Last year's growdown someone recommended to plant directly into it for an early boost... but that year I had already planted into promix.  This year I decided to give the miracle gro a shot.  I can see the logic.

I have tried planting directly into worm castings as an experiment using some of my own reaper seeds in the past, and while they did germinate...the moisture control issue made it an experience I would not recommend.  Worm castings are composed of very fine, dense particulates not unlike clay...

No signs of life yet...  still holding out... they should have plenty of nutrients to thrive once they germinate!  

I like to top dress my seedlings with fresh worm castings fairly early (about 2 weeks after emergence).  The quality of worm castings varies, but if you have nice castings made with love then your only consideration with regard to over-dosing your plant would involve excessive moisture content...

Looks like leaf variegation, which is a genetic thing.  Shouldnt be anything to worry about.  When Large Orange Thai was the contest variety in the growdown throwdown a few years back that variety also displayed the same genetic mutation occurring in several people's plants growing the same...

I use utilitech T8 4 foot 2 bulb shoplight ballasts with 'daylight' spectrum bulbs (or 'grow' spectrum bulbs if they have them on hand.)   I love these lights because they perfecttly fit my 1020 flats I use for my seedlings... 1 light will cover 2 trays extremely well... but you could raise them...
