It depend off them wedding crasher drink a lot
I water when i see the top soil dry i give a little water to those but when they are all light i give water a lot until the under pot is half way full and stay full to be sure to fully saturate the medium .

In flowering the plant drink a lot more then in veg like the same as a hydro setup every day or second day 5 gallon fabric pot dry fast when you have big plant in them.

I use my tap water i dont let sit or ph it use it straight from the tap .

So guys I topped dressed with Gaia green 4-4-4 not thinking I was gonna flip to flower. well a week later and I flipped and I’m 2 days in. would it be a good idea to top dress with just bone meal and mineralized phosphate? instead off 2-8-4 once I let the plants eat most of it then top dress with 2-8-4 also I’m in 7 gallon grow bags and would you just do 4 table spoons 2 of each bone meal and phosphate? Cause of the 4-4-4 already don’t wanna have to much and lock something out

The 444 works just fine. Gives your plants what they need, and they'll take what they need/want.

Thanks for the compliments
I just use all purpose and power bloom. Plus I add some extra dolomite lime,oyster shell flour,insect frass, neem meal and malted barley.
But you can just use the all purpose and power bloom

I used to use Gaia...but it is impossible to source here now but Dr.E is....after using both, I do think the Gaia is a better complete product to use...but for double the price here...that really sucks...but I have the Dr. E figured out...if the price difference ever becomes more equal I would switch back in a minute...the only source for me here now is Amazon...if someone has a cheaper place...please let me know as I would love to switch back.

Question, what type of Gaia green do you use for that mix? You said 1/4 a cup for example, is that granules or powder? Doing my shopping now after spending a few hours reading this thread. Great stuff fellas.

*edit* it might just be amazon labeling them differently if there’s only one type

He's probably talking about the powder.
The granules are a newer product, saw them for first time last time I was at my grow shop.
I would get the granular one if it's around same price as it would be less messy(not so dusty)

Thanks for the heads up.
Question, when starting new pots and mixing everything with my soil, do I leave the amendments (444, rock dust, etc) near the top as a top dress or do I actually mix it in? How do you guys do your mixing to ensure it’s evenly spread? I’ve never used nutes outside of a bottle so a little new to me and want to make sure I’m doing it right. Thanks in advance fellas

You want it pretty thoroughly mixed. I usually do 20-25 gallons worth in a huge plastic tub. If you have room you can also lay down a tarp and mix it together in a big pile.

Ya it's like half the price. I am willing to hazard a guess the living soil doesn't produce twice the bud. Lol.
But if you culture the good organisms in your pro mix mixed with amendments it should work the same/fine

Do y’all using gaia green add myco of some sort? Makes me wonder if I should try the promix with myco
