Thank you very much sir. It's funny because I have a full notebook of garden data that I keep on top of this journal...this online journal is basically a summary of all the BS in my notebook lol so if you think this is obsessive compulsive....:roll: consider yourself lucky

When i used straight RO I developed cal/mg issues about 2 months in. Check my grow journal and you'll see...everything was gravy for the first two months, and then all of a sudden cal/mg issues. At first i thought it was lockout when I was under the impression that pH was a concern (doh!) but...

Thats how I usually am lol. Whether its in the kitchen, brewin beer, or mixing compost teas...just a bit of this, a bit of that, etc. The plants aren't that sensitive lol. Nature is good at adapting and creating ideal conditions. And good point about the FF instead of 707, I can make it more...

This is not necessarily the case! It all depends on the microbes you are cultivating within the compost. Bokashi composting, for example, uses an anaerobic process to create compost. Yes, you heard me. Anaerobic. This is the opposite of most composting processes, but due to the bacteria within...

It is my dream to one day personally meet this man. You say friend...Have you been blessed enough to meet the famed CC? If so, I shouldn't be surprised that you have all the answers to my questions :blsmoke: Spliff - in the spirit of your post I may run a side by side next round with just BIM...

Too much nitrogen....inhibiting flower response. Thats my 2 cents. Start starving her and see what happens. Also, that leaf popping pistils is awesome, had some of my TGA beans do that as well :mrgreen:

:) glad to see this thread is actually helping people. Good luck 69bandit! And next grow you should mix up some supersoil and switch to true organics!!! you won't be dissapointed... Now on to some updates. Don't have much time so here is a rundown of everything that has gone down in the last...

Thanks RRog. If I'm not mistaken, Clackamas Coot is a.k.a. Lumperdawgz, Lumperdawgz2, ComfreyQuery on grasscity, yes? I have been reading his stuff for months, and he is a genius. He is the one who sparked this all for me. Subcool got me interested in organics years ago when I was just an...

God damn spliff...making me wish I was in hawaii. You have so many sources for organic material around you...its insane. Forests teeming with life, the ocean, etc. I am stuck in a damn city in the desert in so-cal...feels fucking lifeless. Might take a trip to hawaii next fall when I get out of...

:bigjoint: Thats what I like to hear!!!!! The comfrey is Bocking 14 of course ;-) did my research on that one I'm aiming for the worlds best vermicompost - although I'm sure yours is far superior kiss-ass After I realized the unbelievably poor quality of the shit that is sold at nurseries...

lmao dog my avatar is terence mckenna...im not some creepy old dude. im 23, and my gf is 20. its a nice mental picture :) especially if you know what she looks like :hump:

Spliff - it's funny how cancer-fighting plants are often illegal to the public, yet at the same time by the government they are deeply studied, chemically isolated, and sold under a brand name as "medicine". I would rant forever along side you if we had a thread on that topic lol...but agreed we...

Lovin those pics of the root mass! Check out what I found during a transplant the other day This is the top inch or so of the soil...The pot was pretty dry before transplanting, and the soil chunked off the top (where there were no roots) revealing a very healthy fungal network underneath. I...

Okay this is awesome. I make my own sprouts all the time, and that sprout water usually just ends up in my raised beds...are there any other seeds this is good with? I have red clover seeds, alfalfa, broccoli, radish, etc. Rrog, can't thank you enough for your presence on this forum. +rep if it...

Glad to see we are on the same page in regards to "flushing" or whatever it shall be called :) Not sure what you mean exactly about the drying out. Do you mean you go 5 days without watering? Or do you let them get dry, and then go for 5 days? At what point(s) do you do this in the cycle...

Hmm...I think we have a different definition of flush. When most growers "flush" they put about 3x the pot size volume of water, and let it all run through. What you seem to be describing is just starving your plants a little bit at the end...feeding plain water the last week or two with only a...

There are two options here. Either buy a brand of soil and use liquid nutrients, etc. Or construct your own soil that will not need additional nutrients. In the end it is much more rewarding and cheaper to build your own soil - but it can be a lot of work and more expensive up front. I have used...

Good stuff wendy - real nice looking plants, and glad to see you're growing organic :blsmoke: But I gotta ask - why do you feel you need to flush with organics? If you are feeding them all natural things, what would you need to flush out??? Just something that always piques my curiosity...

I agree 100%. This clip from Terence Mckenna seems to be especially relevant here... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEglHjd_gUQ

lol hydro with straw...that would be funny to see.
