    First time making my own organic medium. Did I get my ratios relatively right?

    I mixed up the medium for my next grow tonight. I used stuff I had lying around (my wife is an organic market gardener). The only thing I purchased was the earth work castings. The promix (Organik w/ mychroriza) has a fair bit of perlite in it, but I wanted to add more. The 5 stores in my area...

    My supersoil mix - am I missing anything?

    Hi guys! I've gotten a lot of help here and I've come up with a recipe for my first "supersoil". I'm hoping you guys can let me know if I did good, or if I'm missing anything? The recipe is more or less based on what I have laying around and what's available at the local garden center and...

    Can I do 30% top soil, 30% compost, 30% promix and 10% worm castings?

    Thanks for the info! Maybe a dumb question, but if I make a mix like this, is it still considered an organic/soil grow since there is no top soil included?

    Can I do 30% top soil, 30% compost, 30% promix and 10% worm castings?

    Thank you for your very detailed answer! We do make our own compost to a certain extend, but we generally buy it from a local Mennonite by the truck load (about 30 yds/year). Basically what I'm hearing you saying, is to hold back on the amendments and fertilizer for the first while because the...

    Can I do 30% top soil, 30% compost, 30% promix and 10% worm castings?

    Yeah, shes my growing mentor. She grow 150 tomato plants in a 50/50 mix of promix and compost right now, but I think there is a better way for cannabis.

    Can I do 30% top soil, 30% compost, 30% promix and 10% worm castings?

    Hi guys! I want to try growing organic and I figured I could do it with what I have laying around at home in my greenhouse. I plan on adding 4-4-4 Gaia Green fertilizer, granular K-Mag, granular boron and calcium powder (volatenite) as well. Does that sound like a decent soil-mix / "supersoil"...

    Best way to utilize 4x4' and 4x2' tents?

    Hi guys. I'm a relatively new grower currently growing 5 autoflowers in my 4x4 tent. A really good deal on a 4x2 with a nice light came up on FB Marketplace and I couldn't not get it, so now I have a 4x2' tent as well. What would you guys do? Grow auto flowers in the 4x2 and do a scrog net in...

    Decarboxylation - I need a toaster oven - recommendations?

    I tried the toaster oven thing and it sucked. Fluctuate wildly in temperature. If your oven is within 15F it's good in my mind. Keep a meat thermometer in there and open the oven door if it creeps past 240f or whatever the upper temp is.
