    Just a struggling newbie...unsure of problem.

    I've been Jonny Organicseed online for decades. Enjoy the disbelief. It's only a matter of time before the realization sets in. When I started, I was roundly laughed at for struggling to create an organic soil mix. Now, people are preaching the message I beat into their heads. It's a funny...

    Just a struggling newbie...unsure of problem.

    The truly funny part is you have to smoke it. Dude with the sign has top quality herb grown in Humic soil. But you don't know nuthin; about that.

    Just a struggling newbie...unsure of problem.

    Looking at your plants, it looks like the leaf burn is worse towards the bottom. I think you can't really look past that leaf burn. Gotta fix that before any other symptoms can be judged. The medium is too hot for them. Most label directions should be cut in half. I'm not sure what you'll do...

    I hate gnats …

    Fungus gnats hide in the upper layer of soil. I sometimes spray the surface with Method1 pps, to discourage colonization. It's made with essential oils, smells like pinesol, and evaporates fairly quickly. It's been very useful for me. Runs just about any bug away. A little goes a long way. I...

    Organic Feeding 101.

    For 30 or so years. What I see in this thread is, by and large, not organic. Let's consider another definition of organic: "Involving organisms or the products of their life processes." It's easy to take a hydro mindset into a more natural style of growing, and essentially end up with an...

    Organic Feeding 101.

    Gee, I wonder who tended the Primeval forests, before we cut them all down. Must have been the dwarves and elves we hear so much about. One thing this thread has taught me is that organic soil must be tended just like hydro. This is 27 pages of nonsense. :)

    Mycorrhiza Fungi...why you should get to know them...

    Rock dust is a necessary ingredient of a soil mixture that has a full spectrum of microlife, but it takes years for a sufficient quantity of rock eaters to form a colony in the soil. Rock eaters were the first bacteria in the soil, and form the foundation of healthy soil. Without the science, a...

    A perfect cure every time

    I've dried herb in different states around America. Each place required me to come up with a new method. Down south the humidity is insane, Out West it's so dry your lips crack just breathing. Up north it stays cool and damp everywhere. On the East coast the humidity can change in two hours...

    help me decide

    I live in a state where we just legalized, and I've been helping people grow for a couple decades. I have gotten just this question a number of times. My answer after looking into the problem? You are watering too infrequently. Your growing medium should never get to where water runs off it like...

    I'm growing the Reg version. I wanted to use them for breeding. Be interesting to see the differences.

    Ahh, a scholar. I checked, but there's no crayon font for you.

    I'm still on the fence about Malawai, generally. But Neville's haze is the result of Herer siblings, and if you have smoked Cindy99 or Grimms crosses, you have a solid idea about Neville's haze, generally speaking. Herer was a fairly homogenous strain for the times, so it's traits showed like a...

    It was of the nature of a slightly sarcastic soliloquy. Did it give you a headache?

    Be interested in your results with the Malawi. I sat for an hour with a pack of Super Malawi Haze and a pack of Golden Tiger in my lap before I decided on the Golden Tiger ( two samples listed - .03 & .1 THCv) I'm looking for the slightly stabilized (3rd gen) genetics to cross with my indica...

    Mycorrhiza Fungi...why you should get to know them...

    This thread gave me a headache. I have some ideas for folks: Start a compost pile. Get some rock dust. Raise worms. Stop buying products. You cannot buy your way, or engineer your way, to Humic soil conditions. At some point you must realize that processes are taking place that science cannot...

    TGA By Others

    The Fems didn't surprise me any more than someone doing promotional work from a dead man's Instagram account. I believe if they could have stuffed him and stood him in the storefront, they would have.

    Are you having the argument with yourself that I am always having: "Hmmmn, Pakistani or Afghani...... how bad do I need those stiff branches and Christmas tree shape?....." I always want the striking colors and primal appearance of the Pakistani to be bred into my strains, but I know the...

    High THC strains seldom have the same effect on me as more 'elderly' genetics. I use Cannabis primarily for medicinal purposes. I smoke when my pain levels demand it. I frequently forget to smoke when I feel no medical need. My primary benefit is in Cannabis' anti inflammatory properties. I am...

    5 Golden Tiger soaked - sank in about 8 hours - germinated in paper towel less than 24 after that. Very hardy sprouts. Deep green first set. 2-3 inches long before I found them. (Thought I had a few more hours). Did not grow into the paper towel. One thing I have noticed - Ace seeds are...

    Thrips right?

    I would personally recommend Method1 pps. If you don't mind the smell of PineSol. Because that's what it smells like. It's a plant based spray. You can use it up to bloom, right on the plant. It's active for a while and the smell fades. The essential oils wash away with a foilar wash. I've run...
