Not claiming more yield. Same yield from same input, just distributed differently.

I never understood why plants grew more vigorously after pruning. Just 'regular' plants when I was reluctantly dragged out to do garden work as a kid. It took me 25 year's to work out an explanation for myself, and that epiphany came from my fist weed grow. Here's my theory: Imagine the plant...

Yeah ... I've come across those before. Nothing to stress about. https://www.growweedeasy.com/weird-or-what#tri-leaf-seedlings

And just to comment here ... for a sanity check on the 'mad scientist': I don't throw my unholy stinking mouldy rotting colourful concoctions directly onto my plants. I don't plant directly into soil mixes that look and smell like this. The 'raw' ingredients have all been cooking and rotting...

I've found that living soil with microbes increased my number of bud sites and bud density. My plants gave off a sweet fruity smell when growing, strong enough to smell from 15 metres away. That carried through to a final clean and sweet smoke taste. That wasn't specific to the strains - same...

Damn those colours sure do look pretty! I would add in some blended banana skins to the molasses and let that ferment for 48 hours before feeding ... great source of bloom K for finish.

@Reap911 Preach brother. :clap: Organic + microbes + bacteria + fungi https://www.wikileaf.com/thestash/no-till-growing-skunk-werx/

Obligatory Disclaimer to the above post: My indiscriminate mix-it-all-up and mix-it-all-in approach works just great for me outdoors in the fresh air, under the African sun. No recommendations to take any of this into a sterile indoor grow room!

Hey @Hotrod2 Didn't have any pest issues last year, 'cept for one plant that got a bit of the White Powdery Mildew. That I got under control by misting the leaves heavily with a foliar spray of milk:water @ 1:9 + Tabasco. A couple of factors that I think contribute to the lack of pests...

Howzit from Cape Town ! Starting this thread to see if we can get some traction for local outdoor community sharing and support this season. ( and take our minds off the frustration of rolling power blackouts, and give us some positive feels & vibes instead ) - - - I am in the final stretch...

Do your own research on using urine for nitrogen. There are a lot of threads here and elsewhere. Must be: - from someone not on any meds - diluted at least 20:1 water:urine - used fresh the same day as pissed out Not too much. Not too often. I would suggest giving them a small one-off dosing...

Banana tea is high in potassium. Blend up some banana skins - as well as a few bananas if you have extra or overripe ones - with boiled but cooled water, into a thick puree. Add a tablespoon or two of black strap molasses. It must say sulphur free and no preservatives - try a health shop. Let...

FPJ - Fermented Plant Juice A good thread here: https://www.rollitup.org/t/aloe-fpj-fermented-plant-juice.1043432/

I also think it looks like powdery mildew. The 'good news' is that you've caught it early, and if you get to sort that out now, it's hopefully not going to be an issue. I've used milk and chilli with good results. My mate also had the same problem, so I told her about the spicy milk, and after...

True, dat. :D I'm catching up on this thread. Am up to page 55. I've been using worms for the past 2 outdoor grows. Almost every bit of my amendment collections is put through my worm bins. Fresh seaside kelp Horse shit Rabbit poop BSF frass Steaming fresh spent brewer's grains Prawn shells &...

+1 I always use 'shitty' soil in my seedling starter cups. Sandy type soil, good drainage, not rich in nutrients or water holding ability. Slightly richer soil when they go into my 1 gallon black plastic planter bags, but still not my conditioned organic living soil. Make the young plants...
