A lady at my work has a daughter who has had all kinds of health problems. Right now she has a brain tumor. My co-worker was super excited to tell me that she took her daughter to a dispensary and in a few weeks her brain tumor has allready began to shrink from the tinctures. Soon they can remove it. It just has to shrink a little more. Weed is crazy awesome!

An all purpose guano, Gand? Ive only been brewing EWC or 50/50 EWC and oly fish compost with bsm and fish sauce. I finally got my printer to work so I printed a few recipes. My teas don't really foam up much.

What do you greenthumb giants think about fading? Do you guys try to keep green leaves until the end, or let em suck up the food? My gals have all started fading around week 6, and most of my fans are falling off by week 8.

Can you imagine loving to go to work everyday? I would love to be high all day selling soil, ewc, bat shit, etc. We could bring in Rrog to do lectures. Have a big ass oven out back for the highest quality char. Man...this could be the way. Have a huge vortex brewer making our teas. We could hire strippers and have customer appreciation days. Maybe not the last one but you never know. :hug:
Teaching organics. Yes. This is my mission here.

Gandalf, you ever think of Portugal or Spain? You can get dual citizenship and a EU passport by buying an investment property in Portugal. Spain has dirt cheap land and nobody bothers a grower there. Until state and feds see eye to eye in the USA, it is a bit of a trap. Go legal with your state and all your info is there for feds to use against you right in their systems. Portugal also has very chill canna laws. The whole country is broke so foreign investors are treated like gold...

Foam is bad anyway. It screws up the air exchange. I have had tea go anaerobic with a 20lph air pump into 2 gal of tea. A few drops of olive oil sorts out any foam.

Red, I love a fade, I'm too scared of leftover chlorophyll and the colors that come are spectacular, I don't think it effects yield imo and I love a white ash that a fade can give ya. I would time yourfade by strain. my plants are 10-12 weeka, I like more amber trics, so I think at 2 weeks prior to chop I would give straight water or enzyme water only. Not even molasses for me. My plants look like he'll sometimes for fading at week 6 because it seems the teas never quite make them as happy as a hotter soil. I add a nice layer of bat shit on the bottom of my pots too. then towards the top i add feather meal.

I'm going into the supply business. I plan on opening chains in both states. Ha! Shit..if I grew 99 plants everything would die. That is some serious work. Holy crap.
Badass :) I am getting a composting biz going, doing all the labour myself for now so starting small and big focus on EWC and Bokashi for now. Going to get seasonal help with making RWC too. I also have no interest in huge commercial grows. I know guys that do it and that have retired from it, and they are all pretty jaded about herb. Never make your hobby your career because then you have nothing to spend down time on... No fun.

All posts are great advice. I love the all purpose tea. I swear by it and I think Hamish will tell you the same.

I stop feeding about 3 weeks before harvest. At that point I feel pretty comfortable that there is enough in the mix and in the plant itself to sustain it's needs until the end. In my opinion the bud tastes better too. Plus you'll get some pretty leaves. It's just my way and not a rule by any stretch at all. :joint:

Fading is a beautiful thing. Nature taking it's course to the end. The weird thing is that my soil and top dressing are very rich. I don't even know how they're fading. I also see many big bitches with all there fans still green until harvest. I'm going to try some extra top dressing and teas on half of my next batch.

My air pump can be heard from a block away, I think it's time to get a new one, or build some sort of tea brewing bucket. Things driving me nutz, shaking my whole house. Luckily it's my last tea feeding.

Any suggestions as to what I should look at?

I smoked a doob of the #2 pheno this morning, and I'm well medicated. Sweet Kush flavor with an overwhelming high that seems to last quite a long time. I smoked a Newport after the doob, and it looks like I'm wearing shit lipstick from all the resin on the butt, LOL! Take er easy folks. :joint:Myco

Yup definitely no need for anything but the all purpose tea IMO. My girls just got the last feed, in the last 2.5 to 3 weeks aside from the Lemon Thai x Freedom Baby which looks like 4 or so... Can hardly sleep. Got 11 Golden Goat x OG and 13 Clusterfunk seedlings. New life :)

Did you see Myco's OBR description in his thread? Fucking awesome. :joint: Coming from him that's worth gold.
