    No Till Living Soil Mix Questions

    That peat has already a liming agent on it, since it's pH adjusted. Maybe you can contact them and ask what kind of lime they use. Can't you get only peat? There are lots of "peat based potting mixes" often referred as peat. There are growers like Coot and the guys at Build a soil, who prefer...

    No Till Living Soil Mix Questions

    No way i have the experience and knowledge as the users that posted above, but i may be helpful in certain things mostly because i also have limited access to certain products in my country. - If your peat says it's 5.7-6.5 it surely contains some kind of lime. Most commercial peat based mixes...

    First scrog and living soil grow

    Update: I added the drip system, with a diy "hydro halo" lol; just a ring with 4 drippers on it. She is drinking about 1.3gal/5L per day. My timer is mechanical so it runs for 15 minutes straight; i'm doing something like: 15 on - 15 off - 30 on - 15 off - 30 on. Couldn't get my humidifier...

    Would you add earthworms to 10gal fabric pots?

    ReignMan, sorry for the late asnwer. I added some woody material to my worm bin and started another compost pile with pine barks and cannabis stems and branches. Won't be usable now, but at least i started the process. I also started a grow journal, so you people can check what i am doing right...

    Would you add earthworms to 10gal fabric pots?

    Thanks everyone for your answers. I wanted to ask which height would you try to achieve with the plants? As tall as i can get them while leaving room for the rest of equipment (filter, exhaust fan)? From what i've been reading, the 400W bulb may have a penetration power of 2 feet. I've made a...

    Would you add earthworms to 10gal fabric pots?

    Yesterday i added the worms to the pots and transplanted from the cups. Still in darkness, will check them in a few hours. I've seen a few Belladona grows and i believe 2 will work fine; it's pretty similar to an indica, big leaves and not a lot of foliage and branches compared to others strains...

    Would you add earthworms to 10gal fabric pots?

    Tent is 6,5 feet tall. Yep, last grow was my best smoke until now. It was also organics, but i'm pretty confident that my new soil mix is better than last batch. Any number of plants is illegal here. Most of the times that growers got caught, the police weighted the plants including pots and...

    Would you start seeds in soil amended with fish meal, pelletized guano and alfalfa meal?

    I have a batch of spent soil i will add the ewc and use that then. Anyways my plan was not to use this new soil on seedling, i work them in cups. But was also thinking about popping some autos, and i believe should be started in their definitive pots.

    Would you start seeds in soil amended with fish meal, pelletized guano and alfalfa meal?
