Plant Leaf Curling Issues

I still remember the first time I saw a healthy-looking cannabis canopy go sideways overnight. The plants were in mid-veg, leaves were broad and glossy, and I felt like I finally understood my room. Then I walked in at lights-on and half the tops were curled like little tacos. A day later, one plant started clawing down, and another was twisting new growth in a way that made me think something was wrong with the genetics. That week taught me …

Magnesium Deficiency in Plants

I didn’t learn to handle magnesium deficiency in plants from a textbook. I learned it the hard way, under bright LEDs, with a canopy that looked perfect on Monday and started showing pale striping by Thursday. The first time it happened, I reacted like most growers do: I added more nutrients. The plants didn’t improve. The runoff got saltier, the leaves got uglier, and I lost a week of momentum during a stretch that should have been pure, steady growth. Now, …

Purple Dead Nettle and Weeds in Lawns

When I say I pay attention to lawn weeds, it is not because I want a perfect, golf-course yard. I pay attention because weeds tell me what my soil is doing, what my drainage looks like, and what pests are waking up. Those things matter when I am raising cannabis, marijuana, and weed plants for a full season outdoors. The first weed that reliably shows up in my yard is purple dead nettle, and it is the one that taught …

Mold and Disease in Cannabis

The first time I lost a crop to mold, it felt like a punch to the gut. I had beautiful, resinous tops one week and gray, crumbling buds the next. That harvest taught me a lesson I never forgot: mold in cannabis prevention is not a single product or trick, but a system you build into every part of your grow. Over the last decade of growing cannabis, marijuana, and what most of my friends simply call weed, I have worked …

Deer-Resistant Plants and Gardening Tips

Why I Wrote This I grow year-round—photoperiod cannabis in a protected greenhouse, autoflowers along the fence line in summer, and food crops tucked between resistant perennials. My number one outdoor pressure isn’t wind, mold, or even irrigation. It’s deer. After too many stripped tops and nibbled nodes, I rebuilt the entire layout around Deer-Resistant Plants and Gardening Tips that actually work. This article is everything I use today: how I plan a deer resistant garden, the fencing for deer that finally …

House Bug Identification and Management

Why I Wrote This In my first apartment grow, I blamed a nutrient line for leaf stippling that had nothing to do with EC. The real culprit was a hitchhiking thrips population I had invited in on a basil plant from the kitchen window. Since then I’ve kept a detailed log on House Bug Identification and Management across tents, garages, and small greenhouses. This guide shares what actually works inside living spaces—tight quarters where cannabis, houseplants, pets, and people all intersect. Nothing …

Weed Killer Methods and Recipes

Why I Wrote This Weed Killer Playbook Weeds steal light, water, and nutrients from our plants and they never take a day off. Over the last decade I’ve tested dozens of approaches in indoor tents, greenhouses, and outdoor cannabis beds. This article shares the Weed Killer Methods and Recipes that actually worked without compromising soil life or the crop. It leans heavily on organic weed control, prevention-first thinking, and simple tools anyone can deploy. I’m a grower, not a lawyer or doctor. …

High-Humidity IPM Focus: Seeds+Practices That Help Prevent Bud Rot

Why I Wrote This Guide I have grown through more wet autumns than I can count, and every season reminds me that the number one goal is to prevent bud rot. When the air sits heavy and the forecast stacks three storms in a row, clean harvests come down to honest planning, the right genetics, disciplined climate control, and a calm harvesting routine. This is the playbook I use to prevent bud rot in greenhouses, small tents, and simple hoop houses. My …
