Depends on what you're asking. If you're just toning your blonde, use a Demi-permanent. It won't lift but neutralizes unwanted tones. But if you use any developer 5 Vol. and up, it will lift your base level. Which will cause warmth, at roots.

Choose your seeds I shop at farmers supply houses they sell to farmers for growing thus better quality seeds and more variety and cost lower. Next soak for 24 hours. Seed absorb water thus expanding and starting the growth process -- do not shorten the soak period or you lengthen the growing period. Place in tray darken area of tray for 30 hours seed grow naturaly in the ground it is dark under the soil. Then give it light sun or house lights works just fine for the sprout process. I place mine near the sealing in the room that the room light is on the most. Water daily. Enjoy.

I flattened the ground soil then sat the unit on top. I didn't use anything but a compacted peat moss and top soil mix to fill the cavities. I wish that I had started with a cheaper filler for the deeper side, but didn't think about it until after I started filling it. I grew tomatoes and flowers. They turned out beautiful.

that will depend on the plants in question, and the amount of root mass they will create. I have grown two rather large tomato plants in mine. one suggestion I can make is adding air to the reservoir with a fish tank air pump and air stone. this made my plants thrive.

You mix 2-3 tablespoons per gallon of water and pour on the ground around the base of the plant. I wouldn't use a whole gallon around just one plant. Prorate it based on how much water you would normally give the plant that day. If your plants show signs of stress, as in the leaves turning yellow, wait a week and use it again. I did this for 4 weeks in a row, and when my plants looked healthy again I cut back to once a month or more. I also had my dirt tested and found that it was nitrogen dificient, so this was perfect for me. If your plants aren't healthy, you should always have your dirt tested, since too much of a good thing is bad as well. Any local nursery should be able to test it for you.

Hi, I used these in my garden last year and my tomatoes were super big and had a great taste. I had so many I had to give bushels away. I was very pleased with this product. I liked being able to place them where I wanted the fertilizer to give the most to the roots. I did get good leaf growth.

I'm probably too late to help you, but tomatoes can be water bath canned (which is probably why the recommend not using the pressure gauge and having the hot water bath up above the lids). I use a large tamale pot. You don't actually need the pressure canner for tomatoes. Some directions recommend it for a shorter canning time, but results are very good with the straight water bath and a little lemon juice for higher acid.

An easy and effective method to help with the watering is to place a "pad" of newspaper 8-10 sheets on the bottom of the tray. Form your blocks directly on this paper using damped starter soil mix (a bit damper than you would use for regular potting. Squeeze a fist full of dampened mix and it should hold its shape. It is OK if you can squeeze out a drop or two of water.). Plant your seeds. Gently water the paper next to the block, enough to saturate the paper and make it glisten. Check once or twice a day. I think this is a lot quicker and easier than misting.

Yes, why not? What other method might you use? I have used for tomato plants and watermelon seeds so far.

sorry, I don't have any tomato plants, but if they need lots of water at once, maybe not...this keeps the soil moist.

FOUR ways, use any of these or a combination: (1)pH adjust your water to 5.6-5.8 ---- (2)add 5ml/gal of 3% drugstore H2O2, not a drop more and start with half that just to be sure your plants are ok with it ---- (3) use distilled or RO water ---- (4) cover your reservoir so no light reaches the water

I put a 44lb bag on a 4'x12' raised bed for tomatoes. They turned out great. It just adds back minerals. I used a fish kelp fertilizer also. You might want to check the PH of the soil after adding.

I would guess that tomato seeds would be filtered but anything finer would go through. I would suggest trying a couple of layers of cheese cloth in addition. Might work for you.

I have planted a variety of things and everything did well especially the tomatoes. The key is to load it up with good soil.

First, soak the seeds for 2-3 hrs. Start them indoors in 2" pots. Use a "seed starting mix." Make a dimple in the well-watered soil. Lay the seed on its side in the dimple. Cover the pots with clear plastic to create humidity. Place in a well-lit, bright, but not direct sunlight. Mist daily depending on whether the seed casing looks damp or not. They will pop up in about 3 to 5 days! I planted 11 seeds, but only 5 made it. I have been growing mine under fluorescent lights. These instructions came with my seeds ordered from Amazon.com.
