RHS Latin for gardeners. Its a lovely illustrated hardback.. listing roots of plant nomenclature with small features on reoccuring themes.
"RHS Latin for Gardeners: Over 3,000 Plant Names Explained and Explored" https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/184533731X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_wwj8BbRQHQTH4
Based on what I see here, I would advise you to focus on getting the correct equipment set up and learning the details on how to grow cannabis from the grow book and equipment guide. https://www.amazon.com/Grow-Equipment-Guide-MArijuana-2015-08-02/dp/B01K3MMIJ0
Then pick up a recognized cannabis specific nutrient system, a 2 part. Nothing more complicated than that. It's all the same shit.
Your seedling is under stress and it won't be long before you have rotted the roots.
The Grow Book will put you straight and will save you a lot of time and effort.
That said, if you live in the U.S.,
Cogo's is one of the finest 2 part nutrient products out there, its also good value.
Good luck, bro.
I used Mauseth's Intro to Plant Biology. Helped me get through my botany courses.
Hi! I've spent the past few days watching some online videos offered for free as part of a sustainability conference for anyone interested in managing or working on small farms. The conference website: www.smallfarmsummit.org . (The conference has finished, however. I just wanted to provide the source of my information.) One of the participants, Zach Wolf, delivered a video called, "Your Relationship to Soil Fertility Management." At the end, he mentioned these texts as sources for more information and research:
I haven't read any of them yet. I hope they are of some help to you. :)
Sorry, this very likely won't be any help for you at all, but as I've seen a few people with Germany flairs in the sub who might wander by: This is the first book I bought, and quite educational. It's two books bound into one, a beginner and an advanced one. Beautiful pictures in it too.
Like others have said, learning what characteristics plant families have makes plant I.D. so much easier. If this is something you really want to learn, I'd recommend a book like Wendy B. Zomlefer's Guide to Flowering Plants or Practical Plant Identification by James Cullen. Both of those should give you a rundown on common plant family characteristics and help you narrow it down at least to a family, if not a genus. Being able to accurately I.D. plants quickly is mostly practise, though; the more you do it, the easier it gets.
Though, because you don't think it's a native plant, once you have a rough idea of what it is, you can look at ornamental plants that will grow in your zone.
The grow book and equipment guide in amazon is from the grow boss https://www.amazon.com/Grow-Equipment-Guide-MArijuana-2015-08-02/dp/B01K3MMIJ0/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?keywords=grow+book+and+equipment+guide&qid=1562184488&s=gateway&sr=8-1
