I would use fishbone meal, ditch the blood and use alfalfa, neem seed meal and/or a little high-N guano instead. Consider a microbial product that has N-fixing bacteria (Azotobacter, Azospirillum, Rhizobium). Rhizobium isn't a free-fixer and it's likely that certain species or strains associate...

Silicon would be found with K (Potassium) if it was or contained potassium silicate. Si is believed to play some role in reducing plant stress while it is not an essential nutrient. If there is too much Si it can compete with other nutrients. I sort of doubt the supplement is the direct cause...

First of all jackass Google (or any search engine) is a good starting place for research and to confirm facts (shit which is real). 2nd of all you're a jackass because if you quote any of what I wrote in reply to you and search it you're not going to find anything... because those are actually...

Not a big deal, fungus gnats aren't going to affect plants significantly and certainly not in 7 days. Just get some sticky traps and clean up after harvest.

One thing though, the AG isn't expressly assigned by the President. Appointing an Attorney General still requires Senate Confirmation/Approval. Same goes for many federal agencies DEA, FDA, etc. Appointing people to those agencies typically requires Senate approval. As far as I understand the...

I'm going to say you're not going to have any problems with mold. Not unless your RH there is through the roof. Those nugs don't look too dense, which is pretty much the 2nd factor in considering mold potential. They also look like they were taken early. Just leave them hanging until the...

If there is coco coir in that soil, that is also aeration. 10-20% perlite is fine, I personally wouldn't use anymore than that. What you described will be fine; perlite just doesn't really have any cation exchange capacity whereas vermiculite does.

Dude Bernie definitely never ever ever EVER said "yeah, so only the rich are going to pay taxes" and considering he's been a Senator and seemingly responsible adult for a loooooong time I'd be hard pressed to believe he doesn't know what secured debt is. Why don't you share those tweets with us...

Hillary Clinton is a fucking faux liberal shrill talking head with a net worth of about $32 million (Bill has even more money). Nothing she says can be trusted. She does not represent your average working or Cannabis consuming American and may be marginally better (or worse) than Donald Trump.

Eggshells = calcium carbonate so there is your lime. If you use eggs anyways; dry them out somewhere warm a few days and once they are brittle pulverize them in a blender or an old coffee grinder (they will scratch plastic right up). Throw in some epsom salt (drug store) for good measure (about...

When it comes to roof-runoff collected rainwater it really depends on several factors. Where you live, the season, how frequently it rains, rain quality, roofing materials and how frequently it rains. Pollen, bird crap, sure and all kinds of other shit accumulates on roofs. The less frequently...

Starting in large containers makes it a bit more difficult for newbies. Hopefully you have a well-draining mix, but the first time you water you'll definitely want to saturate the soil. However there aren't really any roots to absorb the water yet, so there is still going to be a lot of moisture...

More or less.

@whythef*not? I don't know what is causing your brew or soil pH to be that high. 0.5% blackstrap kind of seems like a lot, though this ingredient will lower the pH of the solution, at least initially. Seabird guano would raise the pH of a solution including in soil. If there is some issue...

You don't even know what you're talking about brother. You don't know me; what I think; what I believe or what I do. And you can't actually respond to any of the things me and pseudobot were talking about except to say "you can't save the planet, you can't save the planet, it's too late for you...

Right. Sure wish I was born in the 70's. Nice to know saving the planet via organic agriculture lies entirely on my shoulders. You must think I'm God or something. Please though, cite where there doesn't work despite having never tried and not enough data being available. I love assholes like...

So you mean vertical?

Rotenone is "mildly toxic to humans". Tell me that the sampling wasn't biased. Also, washing at the farm and other common sense sanitary/handling practices would have remedied any microbial contamination. If you're really concerned about E. coli and pathogens let's talk about antibiotic...

We used to improve crop traits such as yield and pest resistance via selective breeding. This is working in conjunction with natural selection/evolution as opposed to against it and throwing it off balance. Genetically modifying organisms and releasing them into the biosphere in droves is like...

I don't give a shit about the commercialization of the USDA's version of "organic" agriculture or the lobbying involved, or the price-point of ostensibly organic procude products. However, you're still discounting that industrial agriculture is not sustainable. And saying that if conventionally...
