You can expect to have to veg any kind of bubba dominant cross (and Peyote Purple is a bubba incross) for an extended period of time, and not get the best yields. Very much one of the quality over quantity strains.

High PK will most definitely cause herm issues, especially in Sour Diesel, OG, and Blueberry hybrids. Always better to have a light hand and go heavier as need be than to start heavy and try to ease up.

Also its got the beneficial fungi and what not. I use to use Ocean Grown but had problems with consistency and did get bugs from a bag or two. Plus I like the KISS method, so it's one less thing I need to buy, move or organize. I once found a dead cockroach in Ocean Grown, threw that bag away

I run Happy Frog and then amend it with limestone I think for added calcium, I cut Happy frog with perlite for a nice 60/40 mix. No problems really now that I added more calcium and I can never overwater. Down side is I water more frequently

Thought so. The reason I ask is that I stopped in at SGS Livonia the other day and noticed that they are selling Happy Frog and Ocean Forest for $11.99 a bag. I don't use them myself, but thought that was a hell of a good deal.

Funny you mention that, that's where I get it and sometimes they have even better deals on it. Actually enroute now at lunch for some ona gel! Too funny

I've still got bottles of Fox Farm nutes from my one foray into dirt. Got bags of Happy Frog and Ocean Forest, cut them w/ perlite, and ran 4 fems. They did ok, but I couldn't get back to DWC fast enough.

A multi-chop fest is coming in a couple weeks; I'll take some root pics of the solos stash amongst the bud pics if I remember to.

Yeah I stopped using ocean forest last year cus started having problems with quality and bugs, it also liked to compact because I didnt add any perlite since it drained eell enough already. Switched to roots which has noticeably higher quality, from my understanding they are based in the mitten

Do you like that ona gel TY? Only bought it once and it didnt seem to have an effect, was contemplating biyong a big bucket and attaching the fan lid they sell for it but the lil kar I bought didnt sell me on the idea so I just melt a lot of candles in my candle warmer to mask the smell

I've got so many nutes I got from a grower who was always thinking he just needed to find something to squeak out a little more quality. Never mind this guy was an absolutely fantastic grower to begin with. I think if he took a few classes on botany he'd stop wasting his time with such nonsense. I need to find do an ethical way of disposing them as simply throwing them out will poison our waterways and ground water.

With my makeshift smart pots, my root ball is always well developed, white and healthy.

That she is! While I feel like a pervert and have a wonderful gal, I bet sleeping in and smoking a joint post coitus would be fun. /end of dirty fantasy

Dread guy is usually very helpful for me. He saved me a bit of money on my emergency replacement filter, as I usually buy those on amazon and save money.

I've got a system. When I chop, I have candles and/or use Nag champa. Nag Champa is a growers best friend. I absolutely love the aroma, it's relaxing and completely covers the smell during chop.

Ona gel is used for post chop. Now generally I don't have any issues as I dry in brown paper bags leaned up against the tent intake. I have negative pressure in the tent, so the post harvest buds aroma is immediately pulled into the tent and through the carbon filter leaving no trace. I use Ona Gel just as a precaution, leaving it on small plates around the pad just to make it smell so fresh and so clean. I've even used bacon/bacon grease to cover the aroma and it has worked every time

Damn dude this post hit me hard. I been looking to lucas formula lately because to tell you the truth I have no fucking clue what I'm doing when it comes to feeding. Just following the GH drain to waste chart. I'm probably also using a couple products that I don't need.

You also hit me on the wastewater aspect. It's terrible. and I recently learned of the environmental impacts of using peat also(I use promix). Thinking of switching to coco until I burn up the rest of these nutes. I bought big ass fucking bottles 4 and 10 L bottles because the value was too good to pass up compared to small bottles and I have barely dented them over 2 crops there will be over 3/4 left of everything.

I want to switch to some kind of organic soil but I also at the same time by the time I burn these nutes I will probably just have dialed in somewhat and really figured out what I'm doing.
