Amazing man, im deffo gonna try hydro when i get my greenthumb in this game. A bit too scared right now, as the soil has been kinda forgiving to my overwatering/waterboarding, and lazy newb ways.
Aspirin is the bomb!!! I saw a definite lift in the plant. I had a bunch of tips which were wilted and had rams horns. Two days after doing a root drench, most affected leaves have ironed themselves out Recommend!

Chamomile tea is a cure-all for fungal diseases
It’s a little-known fact that chamomile tea has antibacterial and fungicidal properties that will aid plants suffering from fungus and mildew. I often make a simple brew for my sickly plants. Place 16 chamomile tea bags (or 2 cups of dried chamomile flowers) in 2 quarts of water, and simmer for 20 minutes. Turn off the heat, and allow the tea bags to steep for several hours. Strain, if using dried flowers. Use the tea to irrigate tender seedlings (from the bottom) to prevent damping off, or use as a foliar spray to battle diseases on plants. Because I never let anything go to waste, I also add leftover tea and used tea bags to my watering can.
Garlic helps thwart noxious diseases
For plants with a fungal, viral, or bacterial disease, cook up a batch of what I call "garlic soup." Purée two cloves of garlic in a blender for a minute. Slowly add 1 quart of water, and continue blending for about six minutes. Strain the mixture, and add 1/8 teaspoon of liquid soap. Pour the liquid into a storage container and cover tightly. When you're ready to take action, mix 1 part garlic soup with 10 parts water into a spray bottle and apply the mixture to the top and undersides of your sick plant's leaves, taking caution not to spray beneficial insects and larvae. Scientists have discovered that garlic leaves are potent in their own right, so you can also purée two handfuls of leaves instead of using cloves.
And yeah, you're right! Sticky has done AMAZING with his first grow!! I can't wait to harvest mine, having never grown a female I'm in unknown waters!! Everyday is exciting! Like, I tell myself I'll only go to the shed for 10 mins and check out the plant ... and I end up standing there for hours just staring at it lol It's really bloody stinking now too! Perfect timing for the carbon filter!Aspirin is the remedy for fungal headaches
Black spot, powdery mildew, and rust are a terrible trio of fungi, which can attack and destroy your plants. Scientists have found that two uncoated aspirin tablets (325 milligrams each) dissolved in 1 quart of water and used as a foliar spray can thwart these diseases.
