    Cheapest nutrients?

    Easy enough to get numbers. Just go to Amazon.com. I find it most economical to buy the 2.5 gallon size.

    Cheapest nutrients?

    Just like many enterprises, the equation is -- GARBAGE IN = GARBAGE OUT! Go ahead with the cheapest chemmy heavy metal fertilizer you can find, and you'll end up with crappy results. The penny-wise and pound-foolish approach won't get you suitable results. I'll add that more expensive isn't...

    Subcool SS used dirt?

    Looks to me like you soil should definately be reused. Looks to me like worm castings would be a good addition, along with some organic nutes added with long enough lead time for activation.

    Any tips on using GreenBroz dry trimmer?

    I made the leap and purchased a GreenBroz dry trimmer and sold my TrimPro Automatik after speaking with numerous growers who swear by the dry trim method. Now I'm looking to make the most of my purchase by asking RIU participants to chime in on how to maximize the GreenBroz trimmer. I DO NOT...

    When to make hash out of trimmings

    The best hash product comes from WET sugar leaf and popcorn bud...frozen immediately after harvest. Gives the darkest, gooiest product with the least extra plant material. The unfortunate thing is I'm now convinced that dry trimming with the GreenBroz machine gives the best finished product in...

    Free Alpaca Manure

    No need to compost Alpaca manure. Because of the Alpaca's digestive system, the manure is weed-free and pre-processed as long as not contaminated. Alpaca poo can go directly into a grow. I take the little dried beans and run them through a chipper/shredder to reduce them to a finer consistency...

    If seeded very early into flower, the buds will not swell the way they might have if unpollenated. If pollenated very late into flower, not as much loss of bulk in the bud. Hermies usually pollenate very early into the process, so you will lose quite a bit of potential weight in a hermie.

    200 gallon hso blue dream indoor/outdoor grow

    I tried my BD cut outdoors without covering and they went a bit too late. I started to cover mine with a blackout covering the second week of July and expect to take the first harvest early September. Well worth the extra labor.

    Has anyone grown Blue Fin from Mosca?

    I grew the c99 from seed as well. Kept it for four years as a clone and still grow it. I would have no problem testing other seeds from them. Go for it!

    Advanced nutrients help?!

    SCREW Advanced Nutrients. Biggest rip-off in the business, I really cannot believe the kind of marketing claims...should be outlawed! If you absolutely need to buy something in a bottle for foliar feed in one step, get some Liquid Karma.

    Coffee grounds

    Maybe you could get 50 lbs of eggshells to go with the coffee grounds. Then feed it to worms along with some green leftovers. That makes some supercharged worm castings.

    Aerated Compost Teas Anybody?

    I do an aerated tea using guanos, worm castings, molasses but not kelp. I've read that kelp is exponentially better when used as a foliar spray. Do your own research and decide for yourself. I foliar feed daily with a very, very, very mild kelp/molasses mix. Less is more.

    Info on Compost Teas

    Basically good info. My comments: I do not find it necessary to use RO water. As long as the chlorine has dissipated, tap water should suffice. My mix always includes small amount of Alpaca/LLama manure. Found a big difference by adding Liquid Gold from Kelp4Less.com.

    Throw away my Organic soil or reuse it? <contaminated>

    To give it a final revitalization, I water my reused soil with Liquid Gold from Kelp4Less.com BTW, this is a nice article if you have not come across it before. Here is on old post from 3 Little Birds.... We are about to commit heresy and tell people that we ALWAYS re-use our soil. No soil has...

    Throw away my Organic soil or reuse it? <contaminated>

    I leave my used indoor soil/coir mix outside during winter. Stored in large fabric pots. It gets well rinsed and is ready for a new set of amendments come spring. I'm basically friggin' cheap. I have another friend who grows in straight coir and uses chem fertilizers. Same program, store outside...
