Super Soil Results

That's a really slight claw to the new leaves coming off the flower. Normal. Maybe a bit of upturn on the edges but nothing major. They look real healthy man.

For example Roots organic has been known to use building scraps in their compost pile. Do they use sewage compost? Does your soil contain sewage compost? Sewage compost is THE HOT substrate right now for potting soil companies. They give you a bag OF hopefully fully composted HUMAN SHIT from the treatment ponds and these people think all super soil is the same. I'm not trying to be mean but you guys better study the fuck up before you spout off some rumors on super soil now because I have and I will call you out.

If you want a REAL QUALITY potting soil that is THE SAME thing every time you buy check out DR EARTH. He uses REAL compost and it makes ALL the difference in the world.

shmoop there is a lot more to all this than most people know about.
If you want real quality, go outside and build your own goddamn compost pile, and build your own leaf mold bin to replace peat AND coco.

Sure coco is alright, but don't go thinking it dosent have its own ecological issues and karma associated with it (like clear cutting the rainforest in order to plant coco trees...)

The best thing anyone of us can do for the earth, our plants and our self's is to start making our own mediums, plant extracts and teas. Its only makes sense, save money, go ORGANIC for real, and have some of the tastiest herbs on this good green earth. Grow your own, shouldn't end with smoke, it means food, medicine and fertilizer. End of rant.

From what I remember when the plants have claw like leaves it simply means the soil is too hot, somebody might give you some advice on what to do in this situation personally I would wait until the problem is fixed before flowering but it looks like you are already flowering.

Heres my next round getting ready in the veg room. I've decided to go for longer veg/ fewer, larger plants.

With these I potted in happy frog soil and then top dressed with

1/2 tsp blood meal
1/2 tsp bone meal
1 tsp lime dolemite
1 tsp soil acidifier
1/8 tsp azos
1/16 tsp epsom salt
and 1 table spoon kelp meal (FOR SOME MOTHER F****** POTASSIUM!)

I use paper clips to LST them :hump:

I also added some happy frog soil and perlite to my SS mix to cool it down for next time. As well as throwing in a little kelp meal

Proud to be an organic grower :bigjoint:


Oh God or God's treat that is, who knows but it looks damn good!! (one thing for sure the breeder is Jordan of the Islands...)Now that's what I call a Golf Balls Harvest!!! I am only getting going with my new setup over here and this plant was not even close to the light the whole cycle. I am very VERY satisfied with the amount of trichromes I am getting so far with my LEDs...

It will dry out to be pretty close to 2 oz which is very good for me for an Indica 12/12 from seed.

I think it has to do with genetic and or environment (stress) , I really dont think SS has anything to do with it, I have had it here and there but I really think it was in the strain.

EDIT sorry I thought you meant fox-tailing, ,springtails is a bug?

Just wanted to post a pic of my LA confidential one of three plants in the grow room thats not TGA at the moment. The plant is getting close to the harvest time and gettn some color too it. Its gettn this nice Black color in the leaves hopefully it will continue into the buds. The Confidential buds arent the biggest but they are rock hard and pretty heavy. I should have had a bigger yield from it but this plant went through some major stress. It was gonna be an outdoor plant until the swarm of grasshoppers started eating on my outdoor stuff. This plant wasnt in the ground yet so i decided to bring it in. I only bought one of the beans from the attitude to see what the hype is. Im not gonna say for sure till i dry and cure how good it is but heres the pics of a few tops. First plant that i have had turn black. Ive had Red, purple, blueish, but never black. Got some clones off her ive passed around may run it again or not. If i could find a nice Agent orange that gets the nice maroon coloring male i would do some amateur breeding with this one. Who knows.

are the air pots better then smart pots? i was thinking of buying smart pots, also i have been wondering how big air pots you would need to keep a bonzai mother, anyone have a clue? Great LA Cons have you heard about cali connections LA Affie S1s?

I just saw they came out with them but there shit spendy and right now i have far too many TGA strains to go through I might get some for outdoor next year too see cuz they shud do good up here. I just went with the smart pot cause it was gonna be outside but i decided to bring it in too flower since it was get grasshopperd if i didnt. I just dont like the water everywhere with the airpots and the shitty thing about smarties is they dry out too fast. I like the water every four days with the supersoil. Most of my plants that i veg a long time just get flowered in a 10 gallon plastic pot not as much water all over. I just got trays so next run im gonna do the smart pots maybe i will throw in a air pot but right now i have to use the plastic pots cause im gonna be gone for a week this flower run and within that week only one watering will be needed which will be nice.

so you need pot saucers for the air pots? is this not necessery when using smart pots?
not if you got all your pots on a tarp or something like that the smart pot make the whole grow area pretty clean ,.. when you spill around you can just wipe it with the container haha ... you still want to use saucers if you are on wood or something though
 
Made my first batch of supersoil yesterday!
I spent the last year learning about growing and getting a general understanding of the plants. I am somewhat new to MMJ and growing.
I grew two plants with liquid nutes and it was great experience. Yielded about 2.5 oz from each plant under a 400 watt hid.
This year I built a small room in my garage and added another 600 watts for a total of 1000.

I am really excited about growing and thanks to a lot of you guys for sharing your knowledge!
Much appreciated

My local hydro store only had the roots 707 mix so once it's done cooking and plants start growing I will post up how they are doing.

I use roots 707 with fabric pots and get great results. I'm currently learning how to recycle soil and re amend cause I get sick of paying 28 bucks a bag.
