Fisherman here as well. Fishing and toking go great together. Largemouth bass is my species of choice. Also do a little trout fishing in the springtime until the bass are active.

Puff, puff, cast...:bigjoint:



The east branch is where I fish. Same nice trout in there if you can find them. Also some good sucker fishing near the DEP border in Walton.
Yeah I do some LM fishing as well.. I use this topwater frog that is unreal. Bass cannot resist it.

:) glad to hear! trout is my favortie... although I've done some striper fishing in the local trib river... and thats a hell of a rush! 25 lber on line is fun!
Stripers are alot of fun. They really know how to dig for deep water and bend a pole in half.

I'm always frightened I drop it...with it being slippery out the freezer..


Can't hurt..

Rtoke..I mean the stuff you buy from garden centres for growing your tomatoes..geraniums in.

Oh sweet, so I wasn't too far off... assuming we're right... lol and assuming I didn't get bad gentics... and all that shtuff....

I'm afraid of dropping it too... that jar is VERY slippery frozen in a glaze o frost ice!

mossy - whats universal compo ?? compost ??

i can get, soiless mix / coco ( its from a hydroponic store ), compost, manure, a allright potting mix ( peat, compost, chicken manure ), worm castings, ect..

and powder nutes like blood and bone, pot ash ect..

cheers
I know that you can get Miracle-Gro organic choice (they sell it everywhere). All I used was 70% MG, 30% cheap potting soil. Then I added a bunch shitload of perlite and some whole Sphagnum Moss to keep everything real fluffy. Everything I used I got from the local chain stores in my area. (and I live in a very rural area)

Oh and I put 10 dozen night crawlers to live in the mix for 3 weeks before I used it. Not sure if this helped any but it surely couldn't hurt.

Do you find that you need to feed your plants often with this mix HBS?

Rtoke coco is the best as a base in a mix, it doesn't get acidic as it composts. So there is very little need for Dolomitic lime. That and it's like crack for autos.


This thread is mega.. Gives me warm fuzzys. :D

Troll free from how long now :D Can't knock this thread.

That is the stuff I use.

You don't have to go to a head-shop for it.

Aye...all this stuff about the non-af af's makes people worry.
They look Fine to me.

Unless you're running femizined seeds.. your best not to have too much fert in the soil.... it causes a lot of males, I'm told... and these guys seem to know..:)

Can you get Osmocote where you are?? It is time released and last for up to 4 months. I just started a #1 Royal Queen Kush....a freebie from Attitude....I am growing hempy style in perlite and a tablespoon of osmocote...Since it was a free seed I am going to test this Osmocote out and not give any nutes through the entire grow....

All I give them is fish fert and molasses once a week for two weeks. I mix in thrive alive and a small amount of bone with the first feeding and that is it. I do start off with a small amount of root inoculant and then I give the soil another bigger shot of inoculant 2 weeks in.

Thanks HBS, I have a 16Q bag of MGOC and a bag of perlite and was thinking of adding some wormcastings to it. I already have the thrive alive (red, and green) and I think I have that fish fert. What i have is Alaska brand NPK= 5-1-1.

Also, the Speed Devil #2 popped soil in less than a day! Holy crap thats the fastest for me yet, they usually take about 2 days.

Yup..that is exactly what I do.

That is why mine are Big.

word... I like liquids because you can meter it when and where you want it and also because you can "help" give them a boost toward flowering with the nutes.... its nice to have all the hysterisis controls at your finger tips... so to type.

So basically you guys go with weak/cheap potting soil and then just feed with your teas and or liquid nutes when watering?
