    couple questions about tea's

    Personally I love horse manure both in my soil and for my teas, but not fresh horse manure. I gather usually once a year, sometimes I am lucky and can get it right out of the pastures nearby other times I wander around the village in search. LOL, retired to Costa Rica and live in a very small...

    molasses-how to

    Molasses is also excellent as a foliar spray: repells gnawing insects, has anti fungual properties and helps other additives stick to your foliage. Also can be a quick fix for calcium since it can be absorbed directly by the leaves. Granted foliar feeding is not a cure all but has many benefits...

    Delayed harvest - need some advice

    the buds themselves and please do this in a few different spots. The plant ripens in the upper area first, so you can stagger your harvest to get a more uniformed harvest of chop when the the top says it is to your liking. This is an area that seems to spark much debate in RIU, try a little of...

    how many hours of sunlight does a plant need outdoors?

    You should be fine, I have grown outdoors for many many years. My plants get about 4 to 5 hours of direct unobstracted sunlight unless cloudy of course. You are getting more usable light in light shade than any indoor grower. Please don't get me wrong I am not saying in deep shade but indirect...

    very small problem

    Problems bottom up is normally def, problem top down tends to be lockout. Plants in flower need N pure and simple maybe not equal to veg but N just the same. If you want the most out of a plant you can't starve the poor thing it is adding mass.

    couple questions about tea's

    Boston you can do it, very easily done. There are all kinds of different formulas in use, all depends on your soil that you are using. I run a simple one because my composted soil has about everything else I need. I do foliar feed now and then with fish emulsion and my tea depending on what the...

    Can I cure in a fridge?

    I lived in Florida all my life until 7 years ago, when I was young and poor didn't have A/C except at night do to electric bill. Have you thought about a cooler just a big igloo? You can always throw a few ice cubes in there to bring the temp down but I would think it would stay pretty...

    How hot is too hot to clone?

    Wow that is strange, I usually keep my rooting clones at between the high 60's and low 70's. The only thing I can think of is this a different strain than what you have been cloning? I remember a few years ago I had a problem with El Monstre from sannies, I was like 0 for 50, where I usually run...

    Total Noob using teas and I am a believer

    Just my two cents since I came in here so late........horse manure is the best. I gather every year and let it dry and age for a year before I add it to my soils and my teas, works great. Add some molasses to it and you are all set.

    couple questions about tea's

    My answer would be yes. Currently have a barrel, I think 40 gallons that has had the base going for about 6 years now. I add my manures and molasses constantly without any ill effects. When the base starts looking a little weak I add more manure, when it stops frothing I add molasses. Suggestion...

    Neighbors porch lights.

    It can bother them if they are getting enough light. Can you move them in the evening to a more protected sight? I know that is a pain in the ass but better than a hermie or having them inside during the daytime. I move mine everyday from inside to outside and back inside at night, a pain but safe.

    can you get pm in the earliy stages of flower or even in veg

    Yes you can get PM anytime the conditions are right for it. If you are going the home remedy way I will put a link up that should help. I have used baking soda often, the trick or caution with baking soda is to mist with water to wash off the leaves before reapplying it. My preference is...

    Which Nute deficiency ?

    My guess would be Mag def. instead of N since the discoloration isn't starting at the tips. Here is a link for you to read through and make a good educated guess, although it comes from another I have kept it in my library for the past 7 years. Good Luck...

    Curing

    I am a true believer in allowing it to age 6 months when at all possible. There are many chemical processes that continue well after harvest and through the curing process and like OG just said it sure does get smoother. I just dug out some Sannie's Jack that came out of a 2010 grow, granted it...

    Delayed harvest - need some advice

    Check out your trichomes really well, clear, cloudy and amber ratio right before you leave that is the key. You say they are ready in a couple of days but usually, I stress usually when you think they are ready they usually take an extra week. I know I will get lots of feedback from that remark...

    Anybody doing any Breeding this summer?

    I bred the New Blue Diesel back in 2011 but I haven't had a chance to grow out anything from them yet, hope to later this year. Question, did you have multiple phenos from her? I had 3 phenos and crossed them all with one male anxious to see what comes out of them. Another question is did you...
