    is there a way to replenish / reuse old soil?

    I luuuuuv my recycled soil. it usually gets freshened up w some soil out of the mulch pile, dolomite lime, eggshells and coffee grinds. biggest benefit was very few bugs. also if you keep the soil mild clones seem to do better. make sure to add equal amounts of perlite(or more) as it seems like...

    Egg Shells...amount used

    well as a fellow egg shell user you might run into high ph before you run into calcium overload. then depends on your water source, but only add liquid cal/mag when the plants need it. i balance out the calcium sources w a good dash of coffee grinds in each soil batch.

    Is the Water O.K. ?

    i dont do any humidity control. can be in 20's like yours. so in the winter it s too low for veg and in summer too high for flowering. i get some edge of leaf curl(upwards) when the fan blows w low rh and temp. perhaps a bit of wind chill. easy fix for that. in summer keep the fans running and...
