Hi guys, search didnt really give any results for this matter, or anything productive atleast so i thought its about time icmag growers get information about how to max out their grows with other usefull plants. I mean why not use all the light youre getting cause youre probably paying for it.
People could post what they have growing or what you could grow. Abit about it; for example:
1- Name (preferably a common name, not something only known in america or europe)
2- What its good for (foods, herb uses etc.)
3- Abit about the growing (special attention a marijuana grower might not know about)
- light cycles/ light need
- temps
- soil type
- watering
- nutrients

Ill start the list of, people can feel free to add ones ill be listing with their own added info and opinions, all my fact are not always correct.

1- Chili
2- Good to spice up even the dullest of foods, becomes quite an addiction. As many different strains as there is of marijuana. Doesnt have to make food too hot to eat, even little amounts make food taste better without the burn, even though your tolerance will go up.
3-
- Chilis need just the same light as cannabis, they dont mind about the cycle though, the more light the better with chilis aswell.
- Same temps as marijuana
- Same soil, not too packed, about the same ph. The bigger pots the more chilis and bigger plants.
- Watering and nutes the same as ganja
- When there are enough flowers on the plants (usually when buds form they are plucked off before the plant is the desired size) when you decide the plant is big enough you can help it start flowering by giving a flowering fertilizer. When flowers open with a paint brush swivel its around inside all the flowers more than once, and do it evertime new flowers form. They will get pollinated and start turning into chilis!

1- Tomato
2- Everyone probably knows what its good for, one of the worlds most used fruit! Pasta sauce, salsa, salads... and the list goes on.
3-
- Tomatos need alot of light, light cycle is the same too (18 - 24 for veg and 12/12 for flowering)
- Same temperatures, maybe abit lower.
- Same soil, add some calcium and magnesium at every transplant. Same ph. Like cannabis, the bigger the pot the more to harvest.
- Watering about the same, maybe requires a little less. Abit stronger nutrient needs.
- Will start flowering at 60 - 80 days, depending on variety. Most start with 12/12 though, but need to be a certain age, 2 months veg is good.
- To pollinate well (correlates with how big tomatos you get) you will have to make the branches and flowers vibrate and let the most amount of pollen out as possible. Ive read that an electric tooth brush can do the job.
- Some tomato varieties grow vine like things from the leaf axials, these should be pruned off as they appear.

Ill continue the list little by little as i read more and get more into it. One thats really interesting me are grapes, heard it wouldnt be impossible.
Cmon guys, everyone who wants to and likes growing other stuff too, this is your place to contribute. If everyone just puts one plant, we might soon have a long little handbook from which to choose something else to try. Who knows what cool plants even exist.
