That looks ok to me, seems on par with most other recipes as far as amounts. I heard langbeineite is strong and can burn. Maybe start that one with just 1/8. That should be enough for you to get your mag. Ive been trying to source it myself and its on backorder still a month later!

Those look extremely dialed. good job mate. Got a grow journal I can follow along for more?

Looks pretty good for your first mix! It will just be matter of how much of each you add, and how good your manure/compost/ewc are that determine your outcome of the first run. Here is my mix I am putting together next week. I don't have Down to earth brand in canada so I had to source from...

So all those are total for the 9 cubic foot mix batch, or are what it works out to per cubic foot ? I always do my measurements per cubic foot. makes easy to adjust and analyze and replicate, for yourself and others ;)

Im sorry but at any point did OP actually state what amounts are in his mix, per cubic foot? If we are to interpret the results and give advice should we not start there, as well it will give some insight into the test results.

Interesting. makes me think about what other amendments would have an effect on taste at too high of inputs. Also, 45G =6 cubic feet, and at 6 cups total that is 1 cup per cubic foot for everyone making mixes I wanted to simplify. Natural farmer is saying he has had negative results going above...

Why do you say it buffers soil to 6.5? AFAIK, Dolomite raises PH, thats what the carbonate part does. Because Gypsum doesn't have carbonate it does not raise it. It doesn't raise ph, or lower, or buffer it either in this magical 6.5 range you speak of. Maybe your mix was stable at 6.5 and the...

Here at ROI, we leave no post unanswered. Even if it takes awhile, we got you!

I have a bucket and bin system dedicated to just leaves and stems. I throw into the grow room bucket the leaves as is and stems I cut into 2 inch pieces. When I have a bucket filled up, I empty it into the bin and add a couple inches of compost on top. I then put the lid on top. It will start...

What does RKS stand for ? I looked it up and reservda privada had packs for 50 bucks I honestly have a feeling people paying 1500 will end up disappointed by the results. But what do i know.

Thanks, that is very good info indeed. I will probably blend it then and add it to my weekly or biweekly compost teas and let it bubble for 2 days. I will also experiment with fermenting, Its so new to me I don't even know what benefits it has compared to tossing raw material fresh into the tea...

Whats the process for a herbal type of tea? do you let it ferment for a few weeks or boil it? I don't imagine popping a cup of it into a compost tea that is bubbled for 24 hours will make anything soluble and release into the tea. At best I would imagine some things are released when blending...

I have dandelions in my backyard. Your saying I shouldn't run them over with my lawn mower? ;)

Thanks for sharing. I guess it could work just as well, but it would depend from one situation to another maybe? Like if it was 30% RH and 90F in my closet, versus 60% RH and 70F for someone elses. Just another noob here speculating.

Quick question with all this testing being talked about. What is it that testers are looking for? Is it to see what quality is in the creation or cross, or to see if it is stable or hermies a lot? I would think that with bodhi most of his creations should be pretty good quality no matter what...

I just started using it, in flower as well. If your in the last few weeks of flower maybe cut out N, so like the alfalfa and guanos and coffee grinds. Check the NPK of the ammendments your using. More importantly though from what Ive read like some have said on here is that the teas give a...

Heres mine, just felt like using what I had kicking around. Figured more stuff doesn't hurt. The leftover solids I top dress with. 5 GALLONS RAINWATER [x]1 CUP EWC [x]1 CUP COMPOST [x]1 CUP GUINEA GUANO [x]1 CUP HORSE MANURE [x]1 CUP COMFREY (FRESH & BLENDED) [x]1 CUP COFFEE GRINDS [x]1/8...

Great, list, Ive ordered from reindeersnatural and boogie brew in the last week, items arrived less than 3-4 days later. I agree growlights.ca is quick free shipping and good prices so I have gotten most of my supplies from there as well. I would like to add to the list...

I cant comment specifically on your mix as theres many ways to skin the organic cat. I like to use balanced npk ammendments and shoot for diversity so I have a mix of release rates giving a steady rate of availability of nutrients. Also many ammendments have other benefits like insect frass...

No I have gone too far making my own mix from scratch. Not gonna give up that easy. I spent $800 CAD on bulk ammendments that will last me a lifetime. Il get it dialed in for sure. I hate paying for shipping so build a soil is out of the question for me, I tried to get everything locally i bulk...
