Your projects are looking good, your hard work is being revealed. Did you ever consider dez's mix?
Here's what I've got for a mix:
Mixed with FFOF that has already been used once and:
with perlite added too.
looks simple enough and it seems to have good results.

Just so I'm clear cof. You use that BU's blend, gardeners potting soil, used Ocean Forrest, and perlite. Just 4 things? And abouts what ratio? And with that... how often do you need to feed (if at all). I'm slowly getting the idea of this soil thing. SLOWLY SLOWLY.
I appreciate the patience... I know you've told me similar things for what seems like years now. I forget the K.i.s.s rule often.
them holes in the hydro,look to be a good fit for the cup,id just chop the bottem off,and stick it in.what,are you 12/12 jig? or is that plant doing some auto shh?whats the rootball look like?...they look to be pulling threw tho,so that's good.
I'm gonna keep the soil soil and most likely pop seeds from start to finish in hydro. And yeah... I been 12/12 since they popped. The rootballs kinda suck. The seedling starter mix stays 100% dry when I water, so only the little bit of soil at the bottom of the cup gets wet and has roots. So basically the bottom 1/8 of an inch of the cup has all the roots in it. I'm thinking I'll transplant/ up pot again. When I put some soil on top the other day I tried to remove as much of the starter mix as I could. You guys should see the good growing ones today. The blew the fuck up overnight. I'll snap a pic or two.
Better be careful, someone's going to accuse you of knowing what your doing..... cool foundation!
Puff, puff, pass.....
HAHAHA.... that's what I was thinking.
It's good you guys follow along so closely, so you can keep it real.
Thanks about the foundation. I'm mighty proud of myself. And I'm getting hella strong.
Why not throw the hydro guy in soil? Ive taken plants from soil to hydro and vice versa. I have my two pepper plants two years old now that won't die in winter, they were started from seed in hydro for a month or so
I may put that hydro guy in soil, just for shits and giggles. Ha, will probably end up being my biggest yeilder if I can save her. (or him) Hooray for vigorous peppers. Not sure I'd call what you guys have down there 'winter'. Have they done your eye yet? Arrrrrrr
The project is looking top notch! Thats bad ass.
Its looking like some are fine and others not so much, I wonder what the difference is?
Thanks. I'm stoked on the project for sure. And I like you, really wonder why some of the plants are so far behind the others. I make odd things happen in soil. It's like a retarded gift.
But for real... is retarded like a bad word now. Fucking PC bullshit. haha... why do we all have to be so nice all the time.
That rom is gonna be beautiful I bet when your done man as much effort as your putting into it. All that glass along with the shade from the trees will really be nice.
I can't wait to see the room when it's done. Can't really imagine it now... just lost in what's the next step kinda thing. It's amazing watching the stacks of bricks and concrete disappear. I'm using the last of the 120 bricks today. Gotta get some more. I need another course. Then I'll order the lumber and it will really be on. There's gonna be a shit ton of big sticks to stack. I never messes with lincoln logs, but this is the real deal. Going to enjoy buying a framing nail gun. I'll use the money from selling the cement mixer. Woot.
Believe it or not, this whole project should cost about $4,000. Not bad for turning a hill of vincas into a 192 sq.ft. room. However that's a bare ass room. Will probably cost another 1,000 for the electrical and fixtures, etc. But yeah $5,000 ain't bad either. My mom is redoing her bathroom right now... it's the first remodel thing they have ever done to their house. Anyways, she's spending something like $15,000 for a redesigned bathroom. That's fucking crazy. DON"T SPEND ALL MY INHERITANCE MOM!!! hahahahahaha.
I love you bobo. Really appreciate the support. It's getting so damn close man. Just over 10 weeks to 40. And that's if we make it that far. WOOT.... baby girl almost in my arms. I sure hope I am able to stop crying for a second to update you guys once she's here.
projects really coming on Jig, and good to see the new yins though maybe my peepers aint what thy used to be but i don;t think those are a mix of balls n hairs some plants just go a bit spangly when you bounce em straight 12/12. you'll know in a week though eh!
Thanks don. I hear you on the eyes not being the same. We have a clock in the kitchen that used to be really easy for me to read from the living room. Now it's more of a guessing game. I can definitely see the days coming where I won't be able to read it for shit. Ahhh well.... I can still see well enough for the important things. And you are correct... it will all be revealed a week from now.
I forgot hes going 12/12 from seed... May wanna pop more seeds
I may want to indeed.
