    Soil mix for landrace sativa (indoors led)?

    I read once that weed original came to Jamaica from India.

    Soil mix for landrace sativa (indoors led)?

    Hey Florida, thanks for the input. I think maybe yes they don't like LEDs. I don't know if this is just coincidence but for me it's the super thin leaved sativas that have been the most picky. I would like to try the sterile mix you mention. You must have fed it something though. Especially...

    FPE vs LABs

    Makes sense to go light. The LAB is making the organic nutes more available.

    FPE vs LABs

    I forgot to say I am running organic. I'm using SIPs too. Might try it in my res. Good to know it doesn't cause any problems there. I read that FPJ and FPE are different. I decided on FPE over FPJ at some point but don't recall why I did or what the difference is between FPJ or FPE. I'm...

    FPE vs LABs

    I'm making a batch of LABs. I don't want to get too far down this Korean farming rabbit hole thing, but as long as I have labs I'm thinking why not make FPE? My question is what is FPE better for than just labs alone and why so? Is it just adding nutrients? If my organic soil already has...

    Soil mix for landrace sativa (indoors led)?

    seems slightly acidic and medium P is what I'm interpreting as most likely in the second link. I read once Ethiopian was brought from Jamaica which the first link seems to confirm, so I wonder if Jamaican soil assay is same as Ethipian?

    Soil mix for landrace sativa (indoors led)?

    Hey Conor, no problem. I looked at the bags yesterday and they are leveling sand. So not for concrete mix. I dont see why they would add anything to levelling sand would they?

    Soil mix for landrace sativa (indoors led)?

    oh shit I don't know if it does. I grew clones with a different sand and perlite 50/50 and I was very happy with that for cloning. I think it was not playsand. Only thing I did was check it for water flow. Maybe if I wet the leveling sand I'm guessing it would crust up a bit if it has...

    Soil mix for landrace sativa (indoors led)?

    Cool I use Sips too. I didn't have sips when I did the Ethiopian however. Really cool plant though. Very consistent. Males seemed very dominant when crossed to other strains. Mine always started slow and small for a sativa but eventually stretched.

    Soil mix for landrace sativa (indoors led)?

    I have extra leveling sand I would like to use that if it's fairly close to horticultural grade it is supposed to be course but I don't know if it has additives in it.

    Soil mix for landrace sativa (indoors led)?

    I have tried different things but never growing multiple same strain sativa all at the same time. I'm afraid the whole grow would then be a bust so I do mostly hybrids and one sativa. Just throwing out there I don't think 70% sativas hardly have issues like 100% sativas do. Thanks, I'll look...

    Soil mix for landrace sativa (indoors led)?

    Have grown several finicky landrace sativa (Africans, Highland Thais) indoors in soil and knowing most of them don't like hot soil I try to make weaker soil. Typically by taking mix that works well for hybrids and cutting it to double volume with plain pete and perlite. Most of them seem to...

    Damping off is driving me insane, please help.

    wow, great! I've never heard of those. I wonder if it would give you full strenth labs. I'm not sure how much you have to dilute in that case. Maybe 100:1. You can spray labs on the soil a few weeks before planting also to let it settle in. Also not sure if you should add sugar to the...

    Damping off is driving me insane, please help.

    I haven't done it but Lactic acid bacterial, LABs, is said to be able to help prevent damping off. You can make your own. I imagine you dilute it and put it in a spray bottle to spray your seedlings and soil.

    Old School Skunk, who's found it???

    This one definitely had some kind of nut smell maybe pine nut or cashew if not peanut, but what I get as a nut can also come off as a caramel or butterscotch smell when other smells accompany it. I got the caramel feeling off it too. I agree I don't think it's totally indica maybe that was...

    Old School Skunk, who's found it???

    I just grew a White Domina fem. It was pretty damn good. It is a version of black domina, which I've never had. I guess it's called white domina because it doesnt turn black. The smell includes a peanut butter like smell that I found is in the Dominion crosses. How about you, have you...

    Guide to Nutrient Deficiency or Toxicity

    I had to look these soils up but is the lambert with no nutrients in it? If so then do you think only 1 tablespoon if the Stonington is enough? I mean 1T isn't much!

    Guide to Nutrient Deficiency or Toxicity

    @SaHt420 I don't know if I have this right , but think negative element ions in your water which you say is high pH and needs to be lowered, would not point to excess Ca+ in your water but other things, and your ppm is pretty low so not super over abundance of anything negative either. So maybe...
