That doesn't sound like a half bad idea. I'm assuming I would have to store these guys indoors somewhere. If I can find a spot for them I would love to keep some

I read so much about compost. But I have no idea where to get any. Do I go to BFE and get some manure?

Well teas seem appealing bbecause it's my only way of measuring ppm of food. Top dresssing makes me nervous. Did I add enough? Or too much? How long does it take for the plant to access the food. Those types of things

So I've been shaking some things up lately. I'm switching from Sunshine advanced over to a bagged soil mix a friend of mine was telling me about. Is there an easy way to continue feeding organic once my plants have consumed the nutrients in the soil? I have a veg and bloom compost tea by the...

If you are using bagged soil, and TAP WATER it is unlikely that you will ever see calmag deficiency. A lot of people do not understand calmag. They hear about it a lot, so they add it religiously. But most of the old school experienced guys around here will tell you, not only do you not need it...

All the bickering aside I would say it was a pretty successful thread. A lot of information here if you can read between the shenanigans. On the actual topic of post, I've been stirring up the bin that I've been storing my soil in. A lot less HM since I got it, which leads me to believe less HM...

How the hell do you get 25 ppm from the tap? Isn't 25 ppm like RO levels?

I have a small shaker of mosquito bits, but I wasn't sure if its safe to put that in a freshly potted small clone. Then again I worry that the larva may be

Never pick a specific day to water. The plant decides when it needs water. Pick up the pot and check the weight. Watering on a specific day basis is going to cause you problems.

Does anyone know if gnat nix pellets will harm anything beneficial in my soil? Maybe I can put those crumbles in my big container of soil and give it a light watering? Or maybe I should wait until I pot them. I don't want gnats eating my bennies in the mean time. But I don't want to harm them...

I'd like to note that I did not SEE any bugs in the bag of happy frog that I bought, at the same store, at the same time. Just the ocean forest Edit, also, does anyone here deal with HM on a semi regular basis? Suddenly these little fuckers are everywhere in that soil.

@ Michiganmedgrower While I will not call you a liar, and I know from you posts and pictures that you obviously know what you're doing. But I find it borderline to unreasonable to hear that you've gotten bags of the same soil for years and years from multiple locations and NEVER saw a bug. Maybe...

It's not grow room conditions when I slice the bag right after bringing it home, to look and see bugs inside the bag before i've done any thing with it. No bugs in my current plants at the moment, just that bag of soil. Looks like its just predator mites. But where there are predator mites...

You must have better luck upstate than I do. I'm South eastern MI, but i've never seen a bugless bag of soil :(

Ive gotten FFOF on two separate occasions now. The last bag I got 2 years ago had a predatory mite in it hypoaspis miles. I'm pretty sure that is what the new bag contains as well. I opened my new bag of FFOF to find a small, fast, spider looking, bug. Pretty sure its the same mite as before...

Well after reading all the input I've come to a couple conclusions. I'd rather not put my soil outside if its not necessary. Doesn't sound like it is here. But I suppose it also cant hurt to mix it up a few weeks in advance and let the microbes get together and do their thing.

They are about 6 weeks into flower. Same strain. The buds are swelling pretty decently. Im measuring the PPM's of the runoff to check for food.

I have 3 nice size plants going right now, 2 of them are eating every bit of their food. feeding about 800 ppm's with every feeding for those 2. And an AACT about every 2 weeks at about 700 ppm. 2 plants eating all of this up. a third plant is not. It's just as big, as the other two...

I hope this helps as well. Every time I've tried potting up I feel like its never gone well. I can easily put a solo cup plant into a 5 gallon and take off right form there, but when I throw smaller pots into the mix, I never do well transplanting for some reason. Hope it goes better next time.

How do watering methods cause burning? I'm afraid of putting small clones right into ocean forest. How can I prevent burning with my water?
