The dumb fuck posts a pic, supposedly of another, but his lack of writing skills helps him identify the goat molester as none other than estevez himself. Get somebody to explain that long sentence, chuckie.

What was long and hard on estevez? 3rd grade. His spelling and syntax have improved since as he works diligently to prove he is not a cretin.

I invite you to read the very first paragraph of the book, Teaming with microbes.

Smart gardeners know that soil is anything but an inert substance. Healthy soil is teeming with life – not just earthworms and insects, but a staggering multitude of bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms. When we use chemical fertilizers, we injure the microbial life that sustains healthy plants and become increasingly dependent on an arsenal of artificial, often toxic, substances.

I've read it, what's your point?
Will the chlorine/chloramine in my tap water kill off my bennies?

It is best to use pure water to brew the tea, however adding tap water directly to your buckets in small amounts to top off will not kill enough bennies to matter. I add as much as a gallon of un-aged tap water to my 5 gallon res with no ill effects. If you are worried, simply add a little tea a few hours after watering.

Organics can be done in a DWC, however organic material itself becomes unnecessary in this setup. Organic material can not be absorbed by plants roots until it has been broken down and processed by beneficial microbes. Once the microbes are finished with the organics, it becomes chemical fertilizer. So, when you are depending on microbes to supply your nute chemistry, it becomes much harder to control. To simplify things and to give us the best control we just use synthetic chemical nutes to begin with.

22. Not 12. I have many old grower friends that i learned from, so not only do i have their whole life time of experience but i have my 4-5 years of learning. So quit acting like age is the biggest variable around HRH. Realistically it matters NOT. Is about what you know, and what you've experienced.

That benes do fine with synthetic nutes.
funnny, the way I read it, you need to replace the bennies every 3 days because they die.


  • Can I feed the bennies in my res instead of letting them die and replacing them?

    No, you would be feeding the slime as well. Some bennies will live on in your roots, most will die. It is simple to replace them which we do every three days while fighting slime, and about once a week after the slime is gone.

it DOES kill them, just not enough. he says. talk about reading comprehension.
