Since this site is international, are we talking euro's, dollars, peso's, or what????

I hope someone can help here, but as many people know, as part of some members signatures they put links to glossaries for different topics. Every growers journey takes different paths, and for me at least, a lot of the knowledge I am getting each and every visit is just by PURE ACCIDENT.

You see a post by someone you haven't seen before and look! There's another link with some more info that you may use now, in 6 months or 5 years. I have no doubt at all there are many forums that for whatever reason we'll most likely never visit.

So, my point (finally!) is that with the massive amount of knowledge here in the form of stickys, along with all the stuff from Overgrow that pops up here and there plus even stuff that come from NON-pot sites that we use here, could Gypsy or another site Admin with the help of the forum mods make an INDEX of ALL stickys on the front page? I for an example have about 60+ links from different areas on IC Mag bookmarked, but they get forgotten pretty quick. Funny thing is, most of them are stickys!

This is the place where I assume everyone goes to first to sign in (yeah i know you can jump from a link if you get thread updates) so a lot of people will see it a lot more often.
It will be a huge load of work I suspect, but with the hundreds of thousands of members on IC mag but as NiteTiger says in his sig: "Remember - Every elite started as someones bagseed."

When this site was first started, it was bagseed. Now it is elite. The process never stops, nor should it.

My apologies for being off topic here, so anyone with the power to do so please move this to somewhere more appropriate and/or pass it along to someone who can do something about it one way or another.

Thanks for reading.

I can see what you're saying, but I'm not sure the stickies could be handled much better. If we had them all lumped on the first page, new visitors would be overwhelmed with loads of info without building any sort of foundation.

As it is now, each section has its stickies at the top, relevant to that section. New Grower's Glossary in New Growers section, Cheap and Simple Hydro sticky in the Indoor Hydro Section, etc.

This post, for instance, gives you a reference as you move forward into the other sections. You know what DWC is when you get to the hydro section. Imagine jumping into one of these 60+ page threads as a newbie with absolutely no point of reference.

So, I can see where an index of stickies would be nice, I don't think it's necessary, or particularly more helpful than the current organization.

Welcome aboard! If you make it through your first grow with your sanity intact, you've got a new hobby for life!

Good to see there are more level-headed people than me here. I just had a picture in my head of the mess it'd make.

I'll have to learn if i can make some threads/stickys that are of interest to me to word docs or pdfs, so i can read them on paper, rather than on a screen.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to do that?

Thanks for this

Hi thanks for the glossery. Can you add the definition of 'flip' to the list please? Also could I suggest if it were alphabetical it would be a better reference point.

There you are Reg I thought you got lost and needed help!!!
Flip as is 'smartass'? or in reference to changing a grows lighting cycle from vegative (generally 18/6 or 24) to Flower (generally 12/12)??...
