wel if its june 21st, i guess thats that out the window.

I have some seedlings that have been growing from the baby leaves for 2 weeks, most are on the 4th set of fan leafs. Can I take 1 cut from some of the bigger ones and clone? What is the smallest cut you have successfully cloned? Should I aim to make the cut at a certain part on the plant?

Hey all For a Gorrilla Grow, whats the latest I could move the vegged plants outside? Should I aim to continue vegging outside for a few weeks to allow theplants to get used to the new environment? Or is potting straight into flower ok?

@Wetdog Ive experienced continuing beneficial fungi growth when using coco and pure nutes... dont know if thats classed within the micro herd, but the nutes definitely didnt stop them

@Wetdog Thanks, I did load up the conversion charts in another thread yesterday, but should have hinted at them here, I wanted reconfirmation because a UK cup probably diff size to a US cup... I got 1 cup at around 1/2 litre, but 1/4 litre sounds more realistic so I will go by that. @Johnei...

Hey, You could open a grow shop and you will probably do well, because there arnt enough... I think you mite want to reconsider moving to England though... I live in London and have done for 30 years, its a S**t-hole declining into a bigger S**t-hole Just curious Rasta Roy, what part of...

@DonBrennon Would you say 1 cubic ft of soil is around 30Liters? And 1 cup is around 0.5Liters? Im trying to keep my calculations in liters, as thats how Ive started mixing the EWC, Perlite, etc. I have seen that frass about, I am still deciding whether to get frass or neem... I like the other...

it is a 250Litre tarpaulin box shape sack, is that not ok? also, 1 cup per cf, what Liter is 1 cup? I am trying to do my calculations in Litres. If you think I need 40L perlite, I better order it now... Hmm, the interesting thing is, my mix seems really fluffy with just 20%... But your not...

My bone meal NPK is 3.5 - 18.5 - 0. Currently my soil is 60% peat, 20% EWC, and 20% perlite. I have around 1 month left of veg, how much bone meal should I put inside this current mix and is 1 month enough time for it to begin breaking down? I may also change my mix in the next coming days to...

Sounds like good stuff but in the uk kelp is too hard to find so im gona have to give it a miss

@DonBrennon Il get the neem and frass and call it a day. Do you use the Mistry neem you linked to? Mistry is selling 5kg for £10, whilst thenaturalgardener sells 2.5kg for £9... Il think il get the mistry. Also do you also follow the 1 part neem 10 parts soil guidlines they said? Its a shame...

Ive tried that, along with a tarpaulin bag, the dust come through the fibers quite easily and it becomes a very messy task Also, the smashing itself its not as easy as it sounds... my latest idea was to get a very thick bag and run over it in a car, i didnt get the chance to test it yet.

In the uk we have seaweed, will that be ok for a replacement?

I asked this earlier, and was told not to mix it will negativly effect some of the fungi/bacteria structures... @ANC when adding the charcoal lumps to water, does that soften them up?my lumpwood is not granular

Yes, perhaps stink was not the best word, however leaving 400Litres of EWC, peat, and some other stuff does leave a earthy smell, and its not one thats plesent throughout the bedroom its left in...

I am trying to source some pottasium for my ongoing organic soil mix. Would it be ok to use this Muriate of Potash? http://kanfertiliser.com/brands/bunn®-straights/muriate-potash-potassium-chloride The K ratio seems huge so thats slightly offputting, could end up with high charged areas...

Unles there is a cheap quick way of doing that, who will do it? It means you would also have to do it for every bag of compost - how else can you assure that each bag came from the same batch? whos got time for that?

Yea, I noticed the smell the other day and thought perhaps that could help. I brought a 5kg bag of lumpwood charcoal, but smashing it up to smaller pieces became such a task that I thought to myself I will leave it for the next grow and do this one without it...

@ShLUbY Thanks for the info... I really hoped I could leave the compost outside for the month in the sacks, if what you said is true abo the biology being effected by some warmer temps in the day and colder in the night, then I will have to bring my soil inside in that case... my house is gona...

@Johnei Il look into the dolomite, I used this compost for my base - http://www.gardenhealth.com/uploads/files/Product_Labels/150021.pdf Not sure whether I will need double the dolomite like you suggested...
