Just a different brand. They have a lot of products. Most ppl say it's a waste of money, but if it works for me.. it's not a waste.
I got nutes to last me a while.

I figured that was possible. I pump it 9 times max. I felt like 11 was gonna be the limit yesterday. It was harder to lock down. Thought the pressure would push right thru the little thread you screw it into when it's closed.

I got a few bags of dry ferts like superthrive and dr earth. I have marine compost too, but stick with fox farm soils.

Is it true those fox farm soils carry mites or other pests? I keep my environment like an operating room and i just wanna be sure before i order a small bag of dirt online for 60 bucks plus ship .

I get them at a shop that stores them on pallets, time after time I keep getting the gnats. I'm currently trying to switch to more of a soil core hempy with my fox farms almost being like a peat pellet just surrounded in perlite they seem to like it

Any soil can come with bugs in it I think.. but I haven't noticed a pattern... or bugs yet.
I have coco loco 40lb bag, 7x 12qt FFOF, and a 12qt bag of happy frog. I check in the bag and I pour it in a tote to inspect in a week before I'm going to need it. If need be, I will use an organic spray to fight them off. Then a couple days before I use it, I water it til I get a good gallon of run off, I transplant into the soil while it's still damp from the flush.

That seems like a sweet mixture. Should crank out some big beauties. but
Yeah dude.. Gnats. .. Gnats grrr they dont stop. I had them locked out for 3 months away from my babies , but my girl left some bananas out too long and it was a rap. But they dont seem to be hurting anything

check out the world of hempy thread its another members idea, however the stoner sciene on some of those old threads is borderline genius. took me a month to get through most of it. .Smoke is killin it with hempy at some point I want to emulate his totes

definitely comes pre packaged with fungus gnats not sure about mites. But for gnats just top dress all your plants with 2-3 inches of in amended pro mix or sand or ewc and that should take care of you gnat problem,DE is worthless it does next to nothing, as soon as it gets wet it turns to mush and does nothing to fight the gnats and when its dry its like a dust that gets everywhere.....thats what you want your fan blowing around your flower room, not me, i tried it just made a terrible mess and didn't stop the gnats in the least

I hope it’s not lol. It looks like it started flowering since he had it running 12/12 the whole time. Hopefully I can’t bring it back
Shows female though

Invest in an airless paint sprayer. They produce a much finer mist and give faster, more even coverage.

I feel like you’ll gnats in anything. If you keep the top layers too wet
