I'm accumulating the ingredients for a single ~12gal bin for an overwinter personal plant, I'll give it a shot and report back.a test pot
You mention hardwood charcoal often, but what about softwoods?

The harder softwoods can work well, but hardwood is the best.I'm accumulating the ingredients for a single ~12gal bin for an overwinter personal plant, I'll give it a shot and report back.

Respect, brother, and welcome to terpy side!Awesome thread mate.. I haven’t thought about going organic but after reading this thread definitely considering it... I’m in aus like gigs, fairly new to it all but am got some awesome genetics inside under quantum boards. I got Bruce banner, purple haze, pineapple chunk and gsc going atm but have just started some Texas butter from seeds
Bruce banner day 46

Seed collective?? let me see and also how can And when should go organic coz I can’t make compost yet... it’s on the horizon tho
Nice bro we putting a big veggie garden in down the back so will have heaps of scraps soon... dig that pink gravy is that around at all?Respect, brother, and welcome to terpy side!
If you can fit a 5 gal pail under your sink inside you can make compost and or castings.. I built a small wooden bin that salt screened and stayed tucked away in a micro 1br apartment. Just them castings is good enough to start, the compost can come in year two after you've borrowed some outdoor space somewhere or find good compost or make your own leaves.
Nice buds under QBs!
Thats always exciting times.. way to make the leapNice bro we putting a big veggie garden in down the back so will have heaps of scraps soon... dig that pink gravy is that around at all?
That’s awesome mate... pm me if you don’t want to tell me how one can get them in his hands I’m looking for those great genetics the bubba meltdown looks like something I would want to growThats always exciting times.. way to make the leap
& oh yea..Its around for sure... tis all over the globe now, which is super cool..and one can get some of the original bean stock still too my man.
WowVicious terps coming off of this OPG, omg... went to take a pic with the phone and left a big greasy fingerprint of mostly terpenes on the phone, my goodness this strawberry OG cut is nice.View attachment 4178674
Hey Bearded,Where the hell do I get some shit like that?!
Fookin beauty thereDude!!Here’s an OPG. She’s near 4ft in diameter. Week 7.
Are you serious??? I'm thinking about dedicating the time to read all 200+ pages of your thread. I think that I stopped keeping up in 2016 lol... It was a lot of interesting fungi you had growing, but I couldn't get past the basics like micro def.We will know much much much more after I do my PhD
The only other person that I heard talk about this is Clackamas Cootz. He said that he went to a bakery college in San Francisco and he was researching grain for bread Anyways, he said that he uses crustacean meal(chitin) along with barley(chitinase) and it blew my mind! Along with neem/karanja meal, this raises the SAR value. He is an outdoor grower, so I imagine this stuff is important to him...Plant Chitinases and Their Roles in Resistance to Fungal Diseases

Mind blowing is right, mate!The only other person that I heard talk about this is Clackamas Cootz. He said that he went to a bakery college in San Francisco and he was researching grain for bread.

https://www.kisorganics.com/pages/podcast Jeff Lowenfel interview also!!!
Another thing that I picked up from one of his interviews was that he used 2yr old leaf compost. He said it was pure leaf compost and it takes the full 2yrs to break down. I wonder if this is because pure leaf mold would be more fungal than a worm bin? I understand that it is best to both fungal and bacterial compost, but I am not quite there yet.
Another point that they brought up was root exudes. I believe that they said high P and/or N can prevent the plant from producing root exudes and hindering mycorrhizal growth. Also, when the soil Ph drops below 6, it will affect soil biology. I was doing all kinds of things wrong!!!
I'd be honoured if you took the time to do so and I would be happy to revisit anything you like.. I know its long but we love to speckle in great photos and great learning experiences along the way.. rewards for the dedicated! Like anyone, we do plateau at times, but every plateau is usually followed by a breakthrough, so if its gets boring for a minute, get excited!Are you serious???
