Hey there, I'm posting this in the seed and strain reviews section because there will end up being a lot of info on all of the beans I run throughout my time here. I run organics in a small closet and it can be challenging at times but I get better all the time. This will serve as a sort of online journal for me to better keep track of what I am doing and when. I will also be posting my usage feedback on things like ferments, AACT's, SST's, extracts, soil mixes, harvest, trimming, etc.

There will be plenty of pics to go along with everything!

Almost forgot the cal/phos. Extraction had been going a couple days now.. Apple cider vinegar, oyster shells, fish bone meal - let it chill and offgas for at least 20 days. I'll be adding more vinegar in a day or so.. Don't want it to bubble over...IMG_20160225_103400.jpg

It should be five parts vinegar to one part bone/shell mixture. Used @ 1 tablespoon per gallon of water. Foliar and/or soil drench

Adding the clover cover crops from the finished plants into a mixture of cannabis leaves, water, and molasses to ferment them in an old juice container.

This will later be strained off and mixed 1:1 with fish hydrolysate after fermentation takes place, about 2 weeks.

love your thread & methods. inspired me to research lactoB. what kind of lights are those led? cobbs? how many watts from that veg cabinet total fans & everything? those lights make nice sturdy plants. are those 7x7 containers you're using for veg... transplanting to bags? how area you getting plant out of the white containers? such a PIA for me. was thinking about using a 5gal paint stick to help me along the edges of the container. how tall is ur flower space? that deep fryer you got is a good one.

Living soil, very smart application in soil. You can't get it any better than living soil. If I may add to it, get some fungal and add it into the soil along with this and it will increase the Rhizosphere functionality.

Thank you! LactoB is amazing stuff. Cobs, yes. Around 160 watts but I haven't made a calculation yet. Four cxb3070 cobs, four PC heatsinks/fans. The bags are labeled as 1gal but I think that they are 2gals.. These bags are the last stop until chop (they are heavily fed ferments etc. to keep them happy, some get mad at being root bound but I have found that most don't complain if there is plenty of food to go around) so I just yank the plants roots out after I harvest.. You could sit them on an overturned bucket and pull the sides down evenly all around if you're trying to transplant, works the best I have found. Bloom room is 6' tall basically. I love that deep fryer!

Like brewing a fungal dominant AACT like the recipe from mocrobeorganics.com ?? That is what I have been doing to get the fungus in there..

1 gallon water
2.5% compost
0.5% molasses
pinch of kelp meal
pinch of rock dust
0.2% fish hydrolysate
Brew for 18 hours, dilute 1:1 and feed.

Let me know if there is an easier way to get a more diverse/better fungus action in there!
