Is the soil you're talking about real dirt or the ProMix HP you mentioned? I use the HP for my base and add organics but picked up a bag of coco and was thinking of trying a 50:50 myself. Really want to try a little side by side with the coco/perlite compared to just HP. I can get HP anywhere around here in the spring/summer but have to go to the city 2 hours away for coco and it cost 3X as much. That and the constant feeding/watering coco seems to need doesn't make me want to switch from HP.

Coco should work fine to mix with dirt to get better drainage and aeration so I can't see a problem mixing the two. HP has almost too much drainage so shouldn't need any more. Couldn't even buy perlite this last season so so thank Jah for HP!

Your plants look to me like they are growing fine and fast. When they are growing fast they look pale in the centres but that greens up as the leaves get exposure to light. The centres will still look pale as long as they are growing well.

I'd be watching for signs of nute burn now that you've given them a heavier dose of nutes. Might be a good time to increase the light levels so they can turn those nutes into new plant material better too.

$65. Perlite in shortage last two years. Everything shipped here must be on a US flagged ship that's qualified to operate under the 1923 Jones Act. This is why absolutely everything here costs up the ass. People sit in line to pay $17 for a hamburger.

Ouch! The furthest I ever got into Alaska was Hyder. Got Hyderized at the Glacier Inn while I was there. Went up for a final interview at the gold mine but the other person got the job. Really wanted to move up to Stewart.

I figured most stuff would be pricier up there but the seafood must be cheaper eh? That cost an arm and a leg here and most of it comes from freakin China or a fish farm.

I'm reusing my stuff to save a few bux but thinking of buying about 10 bales to set up my outdoor patch properly. High clay soil here so even buy truckloads of topsoil once in a while for the veggie garden. Lots of compost available with plenty of chicken shit in it.

Costco today. King crab wild caught. $75 for a small package. King salmon are history. They had to fly blocks of frozen pinks to the Natives on the Yukon. Killer halibut and yellow eyed rockfish here but only if you are in Valdez or Seward.

So bought some retail bud today. Trying to help a local company stay afloat. They were into the state for $750K in unpaid taxes. The board denied their renewal for the cultivation license but let them keep their retail.

Slurricane on sale $8 a gram. Sucks. Not dried. Fluffy. Odorless and tasteless. They should be ashamed.

Dellahaze. Dried better. Firm buds but again not much taste or odor. $12 a gram. I'm ashamed.

Banana Kush preroll? I've tasted better when we had to roll tobacco we stripped from cigarette butts in New Testament pages. Got higher on the Word than this thing. Smoked an entire preroll driving back through a snowstorm and never had to put it down. That's some weak shit.

I made my first 'legal' pot purchase today. Bought a 30 piece jar of 20mg each gummies for $32. For my stepdaughter's Xmas prezzie. She takes a shitload of ibuprofin every month when her curse shows up and she tried a couple of 5mg gummies a friend gave me and killed her pain. Just getting my shit together to process all my CBD and other pot into oil with naphtha and make edibles like gummies or just eat the oil.

I've tried some of the legal pot a buddy buys and only the Trailer Park Boys oz tehy got was any good at all. Not the buzz this old head needs but nice firm buds that seemed well cured and smelled pretty tasty. Everything else was mids but he got some pink kush that really had a nice kick so hoping the PK I have come out even better. Getting cuttings next week on the way to making S1 fem seeds of them.

Hard to support a store that sells less than quality merchandise for top of the line dollars.

Not sure what all that means. 21s? Do you mean like a bath salts type of CBD ball thing to toss in the tub? 2 cups of Epsom Salts and a cup of baking soda is what I use to kill the pain all over. Water so hot you can barely stand it and at least 30 min of soaking. Sweats the toxins out of you and loads you up with magnesium. Eating my CBD works best for me but that salts bath is great for joint and muscle pain.
