Making the compost from John Evans brings me to a link where he has outrageous prices- could you list needed indgrediants ?
All u need is a bucket, water, a bag of compost(I use EverGreen Cow Compost that you can get from Lowes for 1.39 a bag), some unsulfered molasses, an aqurium pump with hose & airstone, and a paint strainer.Making the compost from John Evans brings me to a link where he has outrageous prices- could you list needed indgrediants ?
No prob dude. If you are using Fox Farm soil then don't use any other nutes from atleast a month. The compost tea won't burn your babies so use that or just plain water because FF has alot of nutes in the soil. I am not sure about the shake the stem thing because my fans shake my plants constantly as they move air across them. I fluff the soil that my ladies are in by gently pressing the sides of the dixie cups. This helps them get air to the roots. Sorry to hear about your seeds. This growing stuff needs ALOT of attention.Thanks that how to do made my life easier!
Also they went to dixie cups about 24 hours ago in FF soil
Man! I can already see the improvement in the leaves!!! Your right
Will post pics before nights end...
The stems seem really weak- the book said to slighty shake the stem once a day to make stronger - I will try since they are to small for a fan..
Thx Family!!
Ohhh yeah I accidentally left about 7 seeds germinating and they dried out! Put them under soil yesterday - hopefully a couple will make it
Dont use jack's if you want organic.yea miracle grow sucks try jacks classic 20-20-20 or rapid grow 20-20-20 with 7.0 ph and a 0-10-5 for bloom never did me wrong.
My masterplan has been in the works since last year. I dug my holes when it was cold....You know...When there are no fly overs like there is now. I planned before I planted. There's no way in hell I would go outside now to dig all the holes. It's too damn hot for that and not to mention the flying pigz are looking around right now for people in the woods. It took me about a month to take soil to my spot and to dig 400 holes. Yes I did them by myself. I never let anyone know where my grows are. The digging wasn't the hard part. Transporting bags of soil on my 4 wheeler was a bitch and very time consuming due to how far away my spot is. I put most of my bitches out in the middle of the night. Since I did all the work before hand all I needed was a small trovel to put them in. I made sure they were all 12-18 inches before they went outside too...this way they can fend for themselves. I have a small trailer on the back of my 4 wheeler which had all my plants on.(Rubbermaid) Next year remember it is good idea for you to dig early and start your soil early because it takes time for Dolemite lime to work in the soil good(for good pH). My holes have excellent soil in them. If I dig around them, I can see earthworms in the soil. Be careful out there when you are digging your holes. Deep in the woods is the best. Stay away from the city. My holes are surrounded by trees. When the copters go by they really won't be able to see my plants because the tress shade them, but adequate light get to my babies. My plants are also the exact same color as the other surrounding plants. In the hot summer days the shade from the tress will be important. It will keep the plants shaded/cool and will hide them from the fuzz. I don't grow near water because that is what the fuzz looks for. I have containers that collect rain water and I take water with me. I do my watering at 3AM and my plants will be good when morning hits. Gotta use the old noodle when growing. I hardly ever do anything during the day to my garden. At night time it is just me, my wheeler and my Smith&Wesson Bodyguard 380 plus my machette. Between the collected water, the water I take and water from the rain... my plants are good to go. I just have to keep an eye on the weather. If it rains I wait 2-3 days before I go water them at night and every 2-3 days after that if it doesn't rain.Gotttttt dezzzyyy Throwed- how long will it take you to dig those holes???? Wow thats ALOT of Green!!!!
You shoveling all that yourself??
Ok I went to dig my holes today- I found a spot with lots of trees (thru lots of thorns...) that gets some light... I thought it I took a few of the smaller branches down (trees are only around 15-30 feet) it would be a good spot- although there is a spot for fishing about 60 ft away...no1 comes to the actual site to grow-the fish spot yes... Or keep it out on the open..damnn it's hot !!! Lmk whatcha think!
I have a few chics, but my main chic smokes herb so she doesn't mind what I am doing. You know how chics like to burn then crush all night.8o) Smell isn't that big of a concern for me because I am a couple miles away from most people. Smell will be a prob for you though...Especially if you are growing a skunk or diesel strain. It takes 4 bags of cow compost and 2 bags of potting soil to fill up 10 holes.(plus a dab of pearlite and azomite) You do the math...LOL...Dolemite Lime is cheap. It's like 6 bucks for a 40 pound bag. 40 pounds is all you need. A little goes a long way. When I mix for 10 holes I use 3 cups of Dolemite lime. I bought 3 bags and still have some left.Dang Throwed if you got a chick she must be Pissed!! Lol
I 99.9 % confident that no one will stumble upon my site .. And the trees will camouflage them like yours.,, my only concern is if someone will Smell them from around 60-70 feet away???
Geez how much soil did you get it looks like 3 bags of FF will go in one hole!!
Also the Lime ????? How much of this and how to add???? Just when I thought I had everything!!!!
Happy Growing my friends
Um, if you are talking about the compost tea then......If your compost tea stinks then DON'T use it. My brew does not stink. It smells sweet and earthy due to the molasses and/or organic brown sugar I use. Zcomfort is not saying peat is a must, but it has its uses. I use peat in some of my holes but not in all of them. When you dig holes you have to figure out exactly what each hole needs. The soil will not be the same in ever hole. Similar maybe, but not exact. Not to mention each hole gets differnt levels of sun light so you have to adjust to that too. Like some of my hole have mulch and others don't. 3x3x3 is good. Make your own mix and mix it with the soil that you dug out of the hole.I'm saying that the compost I fed my ladies that is in the soil...stinks!!!
I'm not making the compost in my grow room...
Ok so peat moss is a must?? I thought my putting my own soil there & the perlite in those fun 3x3x3 holes that I have to dig would allow the roots to grow w/o any issues...
