seems like some of you are having a hard time finding the proper nutes on Oahu? Do any of you make your own "grow mediums"? If so, I'm curious what you put in them. That's if you don't mind me asking? Why I ask, I see a lot of people using Perlite and vermiculite in their mediums. Good for drainage, but bad for so many other reasons! Besides, if you use either of these two items, it excludes you from being able to call your crop "organically grown". Word to the wise, if you're gonna do a 'guerilla grow', leave the perlite and vermiculite at home! It does nothing but makes your crop stand out like "dog's balls" from the sky! Instead of Perlite and vermiculite,try using Canadian Peat moss or coconut husk!:hump:

does peat moss work as well as perilite> I was thinking about getting ti for its water retention properties. what part peat moss do you mix with your medium puna? Like 10%? Or are you supposed to use a lot more?

The hydroponics store on Waialae Ave across the street from Kahala Mall has some awesome soil and nutes. They have a bunch of Foxfarm products.. Mmm I have been using the Ocean Forest with complete satisfaction

They have bat guano.. two types... One is a high nitrogen and the other a high phosphorus..
The place is run by some super friendly hippies... Carmie is the owner..

mix it three to one....that's the way I always do it. Hey, I was taught old school ways of the Hana Hippies. If you're a low-rent kinda grower use coconut husk & fiber. It's free and works good in a pinch. Plus all good guerilla grow site should have coconut husk there. Multi-uses for the coconut husk. It works good for a scrub green pad substitute, cleaning your guerilla cookware etc.. Plus it you have any kind of laceration on site coconut husk can be used as a stitch in a jungle pinch. No worries about sanitary issues while using a coconut husk either. Sorry, I'm rambling a bit, just finished my after lunch "phatty". As a matter of fact, I'm actually pretty "bobo":joint:

I mix my own medium because I'm not a big fan of nutes in mine. I like to use soil and peat moss but I have been using the Coco teak and it has been great. I think if you do 3 parts coco to 1 part soil mix it would be great for outdoors. I think I may try this soon I'll let you know if I do. Aloha Hawaiian Kind

can you really grow big pot trees in hawaii? I mean liek those 10 foot 1 lb yeilding monsters. Because we dont get that much sunlight in the summer being on the equator. Like 12 hours tops. Have you guys ever seen monsters like that grown in HI?
