Dry measure volume (soil mix) isn't liquid measure volume (container size). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_measure "There are very few standards regarding container sizes and volumes. To make it even more confusing, containers that do list volume typically measure using liquid quarts. Of...

Are you scientifically literate?

Carbon applied to the soil is for the microbial life, not the plant. Top dressing with malted barley powder provides slow release glucose (C6-H12-O6). Glucose is a labile carbon source used by soil microbes that provides the energy they need for cellular metabolic function.

It's complicated... "If the President sought to act in the area of controlled substances regulation, he would likely do so by executive order. However, the Supreme Court has held that the President has the power to issue an executive order only if authorized by “an act of Congress or . . . the...

"Exogenous application of auxin and cytokinin induces callus in various plant species. Generally speaking, an intermediate ratio of auxin and cytokinin promotes callus induction, while a high ratio of auxin-to-cytokinin or cytokinin-to-auxin induces root and shoot regeneration, respectively...

Agreed. Research indeed. For those looking to understand the difference between "soil" and "soilless"...

Soils are classified by their sand/silt/clay fraction. They're made up of various particle sizes of rock, with a small percentage of organic matter mixed in. It's in your back yard garden, and on farms. By agronomic standard/definition, the product in question is a soilless medium. ;)

Try top dressing each of your pots with 1/4c finely ground malted barley powder.

No. Maybe? In my humble opinion, "nutes" aren't the goal with making SST's or using malted barley powder to apply to the soil. It's about providing microbes with bio-available carbon. SST's should be made with grain seed. By weight, grain seeds contain rediculously high concentrations of...

Get some "two row" whole malted barley grain. It does the same thing with much less hassle. Measure ~1/4c of the stuff into a coffee grinder (I have one dedicated for such) and grind it as finely as you can. Top dress evenly, scratch into soil, and water in. Reapply every 2-3 weeks during...

OP, if you're still having issues, Steinernema feltiae (beneficial nematode) worked for me. They eat fungus gnat larvae. Thrip larvae as well. I mixed a fresh batch of soil using Bu's-blend compost. Worst f*cking fungus gnat infestation I've ever experienced in 5 years of indoor gardening. I...

IMO, for smooth, palatable smoke, proper drying/curing technique > flushing. Focus on that.

Source of information? "Growers frequently choose langbeinite in situations where a fertilizer free of chloride is desirable, such as with crops sensitive to it (like some vegetables and certain tree crops). " https://www.cropnutrition.com/resource-library/potassium-magnesium-sulfate-langbeinite

It's probably a cyanobacterial species that form mutualistic relations with that particular cannabis strain. That canna' plant is most likely producing root exudates that favor its growth/proliferation. I wouldn't worry about it unless the health of the plant begins to suffer. It may very...

Do you have a link to peer reviewed science that demonstrates the type in bold? I'm not looking to argue, or claim that you're wrong. I don't claim to know everything either, but I've studied soil chemistry quite extensively, and have yet to come across anything that remotely supports this...

Hopefully some will find this useful...

He'll be reincarnated as a sock.

Some relevant literature...

I'm pretty sure that's nothing more than a silicon basting brush, plenty of which are available from Amazon for a much more reasonable price.

Must be a coprophile.
