What do you use as organic nutes is it dry amendments? I use Gaia Green dry amendments and love it way better then any bottled nutes I've used so far.

Ya, mostly just dry amendments top dressed. I'm trying no-till. I use BAS Craft Blend mostly, and some other stuff. The Gaia Green looks decent too, but it's not local to me. I'm a big fan of Build a Soil. I've spent hundreds there. My basement is full of shit from them now. I finally ordered the big ass bucket of Craft Blend last time.

$5 off through this link in case anyone wants something from BAS.

They're really cool too. They make sure everything's right. The mail fucked up and took a little long for my vermicompost to get here. I told them and they sent me another new bag through FedEx instead. It wasn't even their problem.

The first bag still was pretty good, it just went through a rougher road getting here so it won't have quite the microbial activity as the newer bag. Win win for me once again through them.

That's the kinda shit that will make me a lifetime customer.

Gaia Green looks decent too. I think it's more of a Canadian product which is why I don't see it around here, except on Amazon with an insane shipping charge. I don't know.

Yeah the Gaia Green is a Canadian product its around 35$ for their smaller buckets around 60$ for a decent size bag and 120$ for a big bag. But thats Canadian $ not sure how much it would be in U.S $

Edit: I also use a simple compost that's just worm castings, kelp meal, and unsulphered black strap molasses.

It would be $67 + tax to get the small bucket off Amazon in US dollars. That's like $90 cad. That's crazy shit.

Looks like it dampening off. What kinda soil is that? It's also a little early for LST if you ask me.

Yo... you think the plant is looking healthy??

Healthy, no. Alive, yes. Start with soil you should.

i sugest you tie it down and train it to go around the pot in a circle

There are ways to keep it low without messin with it when so young n fragile...let her grow up some n get established...then top/snip it low...spread her out n nake her grow out instead of up...its not ideal to be manipulating a seedling like that

I just started using Gaia Green top dressing on this current grow. This has been the easiest grow i have ever done, and the plants are very happy.

I buy my Gaia products through a Store called Holland Industries in Canada, it's a lot cheaper than Amazon.

I'm in the US though. Even going through that site it's $62 US for the little 2kg bucket. $42 of that is shipping, lol.

I'm happy with Build a Soil myself, but if I was in Canada I would check that stuff out.

Yeah I get mine from a grow shop here in Canada I won't say which province though or the name of the shop since it would be easy to find it (I may be way over the legal plant limit) but yeah around here it's like 35$ Canadian for the small buckets.

I usually buy 3 buckets of each, grow and bloom, to make the most out of the shipping.

Dude! That’s what I was thinking! You think if I do that then cut the main stem it would create a little mini bush??

The Gram Reaper · Sep 25, 2020

If you are working with a small plant you might not be able to give it 3 part nutrients without toxicity. Might be why the grow store guy suggested otherwise.

Good luck on the grow, if you are from seed you could flip now and the plant will stretch until its mature enough to bud.

Since I'm in Canada I just get the big bags for 120$ thank God I don't have to get it shipped or I would be getting the small buckets.
