All im saying is there is always room for improvement. Those buds look amazingly healthy and beautiful. My motto is if you have time to topdress compost why not add the enzymes to kick start the feeding. I know for a fact my buds are bigger and frostier with an SST but maybe my compost is a...

I'm in it to replicate the diversity of nature. Plus growing your own mulch is cost efficient in my head. Nothing to loose but a lot to gain in large 30 gallon pots Edit: and I bet you could find some benefit from an SST and Aloe. I'd bet on it!

It seems to me that the clover is a great home for the mites when they happen to find the room. And once they find it they become harder to get rid of since the clover, at least for me, is so hard to spray and a great high nitrogen food source. It was the twospotted spider mite in my case...

So your saying high humidy is attracting mites? That would make sense because my room is always dialed in with VPD in mind. Why would they come to a place with high RH?

There are two types. Roman and german. You want the roman. Roman is the shorter strain and grows to max 6 inches in my room. Takes a year to get that high though. I never have to mow it down

Good luck with the neem. They will hide under the clover and you will never get rid of them. I have been at war for 2 straight months spraying every other day with various essential oils and neem/karanja. I always have them in my yard but thankfully nature thought of that so the predators...

You wont regret the yarrow and chamomile. Not only do they help the plant with root exduates they also have beautiful aromas! I find myself smelling yarrow and chamomile more than I do my cannabis plants! lol edit: you got me googling and it seems ammonium is in the nodules. It must be excess...

Same experience with mites as long as the plants are happy and healthy. So I guess everyone has this problem with clover more or less.

I do notice if I topdress with neem or karanja they settle back into the clover patches. But after a week or two when the plant has used all the meals they hop right back up. It is great to see the neem and karanja do their thing on the pests though. Do you just live with the mites? Do you...

Your one lucky grower! I see them everywhere on clover. And even more frustrating the clover leaves act hydrophobic so getting a IPM spray down there is near impossible. Is yours innoculated? Care to pull a rhizome and check the nodules? :)

Not sure if cover croppers have a problem with this. But I have found if I plant dutch white clover it attracts spider mites to my grow room. They always start on the clover. For anyone looking for a great alternative I recently switched to Yarrow and Roman chamomile as a cover...

I agree I noticed when using gypsum for calcium supplement my bud came out much stronger. I remember riddleme talking about sulfur and potency. I use tons of gypsum now for calcium and sulfur.

I feel like because nitrogen is a mobile nutrient it could come back. But in my experience once a leaf yellows you can only stop it from getting more yellow. It does not become green again.

I would go with a compost tea since you've given them nutes. They might not be available fast enough. Or maybe your pots are too small. Try fish hydrolysate. It is my go to fert along with worm castings, alfalfa, crab/shrimp shell, neem, kelp, and gypsum. Gypsum would work fast for calcium and...

try fish oils. Fungus goes crazy for fish

However the fermentation is brilliant! Apperently acetate(acetic acid without the proton(hydrogen)) can decompose to methane and carbon dioxide gas. Have you ever had a jar explode from pressure?

Can I ask why the burnt shells are calcium and the unburnt are phosphorus? Doesn't really make sense. I'll give it a shot. The acetic acid protonates the carbonate releasing the calcium and producing carbon dioxide if anyone wondered why it bubbles and all that.

Ive never done the eggshell vinegar because it terrifies me to spray acetic acid on plants. Seriously, no bad effects from that? I use gypsum, calcium and sulfur and readily dissolves. But I do throw hard boiled egg shells all over the soil.

Everyone if you want high brix put some gypsum and rock phosphate in a bottle and spray your pants off!

Hey hey hey I did my research before I decided not to switch. And holy crap man you are seriously butt hurt they figured out high brix without doc. I know that you guys love mychorhizae, I know you spray your leaves all the time to gives those plants every little mineral. I know you rely on rock...
