    SIP thread -- (Sub-Irrigated Planter)

    I was just thinking that I needed to come on here and show you guys what I'm doing, lol. I'll take pics later, but I do have 6 going right now and I just bought 5 more! Three of those will be for veggies and herbs on the deck and the other 2 are heading down for another round. So far so good...

    Yea, man- that's why I want to document what I am doing. It gives me a chance to look back and also get suggestions from you guys who are already dialed in.

    Yesterday I took a look under the cover and the Grokashi really took off. White mycelium everywhere! I added a nice layer of lobster compost and filled up the reservoir again. I also picked up a couple of funnels for easier filling.

    So, it's wicking nicely! The top is a bit moist, and I just added 2 gallons to the reservoirs that were full yesterday :)

    bodhi seeds

    Well, I switched from hydro to all organic. Here are 4 plants in veg- 10 gallon pots with 500 watts of cob /boards: 2 Goji, A11, and Purple Uni/Pure OG. Eventually, I am going the all SIP route. Here are SSDD and Space Monkey, one day after transplanting: And here are the young ones prepping...

    SIP thread -- (Sub-Irrigated Planter)

    So, I was going to create a new thread to document my switch to SIPs and organics in general, but instead I think I'll just post here. Maybe revive this thread a little. So, to start, I have a couple of decades of hydro under my belt. My last one was a RDWC system based on Current Culture Under...

    SIP thread -- (Sub-Irrigated Planter)

    My plants are in my first ever SIPs! I planted 2 SSDDs and 2 Space Monkeys (both Bodhi clones). They looked a little sad at first and one kinda wilted over, but they are all looking better a few hours later. They were way too pot bound in the one gallon pots. In the future I’m going to drop them...

    I’d really like to get my plants in my 2 SIPs ASAP. I added the Gro Kashi yesterday. Now, do I need to wait for it to colonize before adding compost, and more importantly, the plants? Basically, can I plant the plants now? If I do, do I need to wait for the Gro Kashi to do its thing before...

    SO, my GroKashi came today! BAS does not mess around. It got to me within days of ordering. So, here we go: How long before I should start seeing growth? I plan on dropping the plants in at that time and top dressing with some lobster compost. So exciting!!

    Cool, man- thanks for that. I will have the Tera product here by Thursday, and I don't know when the BAS stuff will get here. I'm going to get my SIPs ready this week and as soon as I get my kashi, it's off to the races! Should I wait to get the kashi going before I put the plants in the SIP...

    I ordered some of this, since I don’t know how long BAS will take to ship to me. https://www.amazon.com/TeraGanix-Bokashi-EM-1

    Great Lakes Genetics ?

    Back years ago I remember a rumor that if you went to a specific page, an underwear model had an erection. Again, this was the 70s and I didn’t even know what an erection was, lol.

    Great Lakes Genetics ?

    Early 80s... I saw an ad in HIgh Times, ordered a catalog and rented a PO Box and sent cash to Europe for some beans. Some type of “Hawaiian”. Stuff turned out terrible, but exciting to get the beans after a couple months of anticipation. GLG rocks.

    My soil mix is ready: My SIPs are good to grow: My Sunshine Daydreams are just about ready to come out. That will be the last of the hydro!

    SIP thread -- (Sub-Irrigated Planter)

    I need some lime to add to my mix, so I’m gonna grab another Lowe’s SIP, too. I’d like to get 4 plants in the SIPs ASAP. I just ordered Gro-Kashi from BAS, so my question is- should I wait for it to get here before planting, or can I plant and then add it later? I’ve got lobster compost for the...
