Thanxxx Guys! This is GOOD......

List of Alternative Feeds (L.A.F. for short LOL)

- Comfrey (make Tea) (full of potassium and also N)
- Nettles (make Tea) (full of Nutrients - high in N)
- Used Coffee Grounds contain Nitrogen (and other nutrients)
- Wood Ash (The average ash is equivalent to a 0-1-3 (NPK))

- Chicken Poop (full of Nitrogen)
- Powdered Milk (?) (google isn't helping me on this one... Milk is good for Powdery Mildew is all Im getting)

(- Habanero peppers Against Bugs - sounds like a very satisfying spray! LOL)

There is a big paragraph somewhere under a picture of milk, tells about using milk diluted with water.

Since milk is chock-full of vitamins and minerals, it is only natural to wonder if plants would get an extra boost if hydrated with it instead of water. Milk is full of protein and fats, which offer a great breeding ground for bacteria. When you water your plants with milk, you usually end up with wilted plants that reek. However, using milk to water your plants in conjunction with water can keep mildew and fungus from attacking the leaves of certain plants and can help fertilize the soil as well.

quick search for me yielded this. Don't water with straight milk, that would be terrible. Water with extremely watered down milk, that would be more better. I couldn't tell you the benefits of milk vs. no milk, since what I did was put straight powdered milk into the soil of ALL of my plants. Hindsight, I should have tried half and half to see if there was a difference. Also try using seaweed.

You can use the chicken poop or bat guano by making a tea. It's just like brewing regular tea but with poop.
1. Get your poop (chicken or bat not human) and some cheesecloth or something porous like it (you can even use a towel)
2. Wrap your poop inside, and steep it in some water.
3. after the poop has steeped, you will see the water turn cloudy. All not ok organic matter will stay in the cloth you have used, and you can throw it away. then water with the poopy water and you got a good fertilizer. The bag of guano should say what the npk ratios are

I grew 2 x Flash Babylon Autos: one was older and larger and I potted it normally and the other I sprinkled Micorrizhal fungi on its roots before potting and OH MY OH MY the younger one has outdone the older one by a billion percent - it grew a giant thick "Stonking!!!" stem while only being inches high and is dark green and phat an healthy and the older one is just sad looking in comparison!!!!!!! So Friendly FUNgi is definitely FUN! W.O.W all my Ladies r getting this friendly stuff from the beginning next year........ Can't Wait! S'gunna be amazinggggggggggggggggggggggg ;)

I have seen that, if you can do it, good for you, and it makes it so you can have more than one strain, but only have it count as one plant in medical states

Just thought id throw out a question, and when im more awake I can back it up with pics. I have a plant I topped at the 3rd node. It was normal ive topped a few dozen times. So here is the crazy part. One of the branches that grew out turned triploid. Has anyone seen it happen before? Why did it happen? And can I breed her?

Question about Sacks!

Last year I ran out of plantpots and I put one of my plants into a Sack! She loved it!

Now I'm thinking .... since Im growing-outdoor .... Sacks could be useful for the long hot summer months... last season I had a lot of trouble with wilting and had to water every day and it was a hot mess..........

So My Question is: If I bury the sack down into the ground and plant In The Sack, it would help the ground directly around the plant to retain moisture... and nutrients... etc... ... or could it promote rot..... the sacks I have ARE breathable I already grew a plant in one with excellent results... but it wasn't buried in the ground... any help with this anyone???????????????????????????????????????

I've seen people use sacks. One guy used the canvas grocery bags and the worked great for him. Don't get black or you'll bake the roots tho
