    Should I initiate bloom cycle?

    Plus I need to leave room for the stretch because at this point its a nice size plant! I'll wait another week and see how it goes and if it's still showing signs I think I might have to trim it back some.

    Top dressing dry amendments on coco?

    I'm on my first grow with Coco and I must say I'm a fan. I've done peat base soil with good results but Coco and rice hulls are my favorite.....of course with amendments,castings,compost etc. I can also say grower talent is the most important factor. Media is just a preference that will vary...

    Organic for dummies?

    How often should one top dress. I'm pretty new to organics. I started with supersoil but it just wasn't my cup of tea. This is my first run with "coots mix" in a sips container. My seed broke the soil June 9. I just top dressed last week with a blend from BAS. Everything looks very good but all...

    Marijuana Seeds

    So I went to Oahu Hawaii for a trip. A good friend referred me to a guy with some of the best smoke I have ever had in my life. He was a local grower and I saw him multiple times but he could never tell me what strains he had because he didnt know. He just called everything Pakalolo. Anyway as I...

    stunned veg in Ebb and grow
