    Below is a link to the amendments I use. You will never burn your plants with this or I should say that it is very hard to burn your plants with these amendments. Notice there are no blood meals or guanos! Dont be hard on yourself! Your mistake is a cheap lesson which will result in priceless...

    5th grow,giving organics a go

    In the future if you ever use blood meal use it only when you first ammend your soil as it can be very strong especially for young plants. Also with organics as you may already know its all about balance. When you feed your girls never feed with just one macro or micro nutrient as it can lockout...

    5th grow,giving organics a go

    The only thing I see is a possible nitrogen toxicity. Maybe a litte to hot for the young ones. Only thing you can do is try not to overwater and let them grow out of it. Once those roots lock in you will be good! Happened to me when I used too much blood meal!

    5th grow,giving organics a go

    Good luck! I don't think you'll need it though. You seem prepared! The most valuable advice I can give you is be deligent in your studies because almost everything dealing with organics is time sensitive. Decomposition rates vary so when you get caught lacking whatever its hard to correct...

    What is going on with this plant???

    I recommend you research VPD and how it affects the plant. Your humidity is substantially low.

    LED HPS comparison.

    This is an old discussion. There are many youtube videos showing more light output in some LEDs using less wattage. They prove it over and over with apogee meters.

    Best way to boost terp and frost production organically?

    Absolutely...I was meaning to place emphasis on soil maintenance between grows. Maintaining optimal moisture in the soil to keep those dry amendments breaking down, IPM measures,etc. I just brought this up because I made these mistakes when I first started. I didnt worry about the soil until I...

    Best way to boost terp and frost production organically?

    Keep developing your soil! Neglecting the soil after harvest is where lots of people go wrong. Continue to feed your soil and continue to establish a dense cover crop if youre doing No-till and it will get better every cycle.

    Drying methods?

    I use the method explained on buildasoil's site. I keep my temps 60 to 65f with the same numbers for my humidity. I dry for 14 days and what Ive learned is by doing this when I jar everything I really dont have to "burp" because my buds are already at a stable humidity 62-65 usually which is...

    Hydro vs Soil test

    Its all about personal preference. NO OFFENSE but most people aren't experts in both methods so most test aren't valid to begin with.

    organic potassium?

    From my experience a well established living soil is very forgiving with these natural fermentations but I try to keep balance. I never feed with only one Macro or Micro nutrient. I use oyster shell flour to make my soluble calcium solution. I use 2 to 3 tbsp of the dissolved calcium and 1 tbsp...

    organic potassium?

    Fermented plant Juice (fpj) Yeah for storage I add equal parts molasses but keep a breathable cover.

    organic potassium?

    Yeah that should be a good starting point. Being that it only takes about 5 days to ferment it is always better to start small and scale up as you figure out your usage rate. For example I make 15 gallons every feed so I know I need about 2 cups every week. After you separate the solids and...

    organic potassium?

    I use as a soil drench and foliar spray for the first three weeks of flower. I foliar spray twice a week and drench once a week. Of course I continue to use as a soil drench until week 7 of flower. You can also use it in veg if youre deficient but I never have that problem.

    organic potassium?

    I recommend you research KNF methods. I use fermented plant juice from bananas for a potassium boost when needed. You can use as a soil drench and as a foliar spray. I use two tbsp per gallon along with fish hydrosylate. Very cheap but effective! Brown sugar, bananas and a jar is all you need...

    Mini split issues already?

    If I had been thru what you have I would probably feel the same way...these are not cheap investments. Just wanted to share my experience so you had a positive scenario to assist in your judgment. Make your next move your best move:D:D

    Mini split issues already?

    Just to add I’m running a “sealed” room with co2 so the ac has to be on point. One 20lbs tank last me a whole flower cycle( 60-70) days and then some.
