Howdy icmaggers!! :wave: It's Khaleel here, back at it with a plain water, organic soil mix. just had a great couple runs using nothing but Maxibloom, a GH product that costs about $4 per cycle. (no shit :nono: lol check the KISS link/thread in my signature line for more details). anyway, now it is time for a water-only mix, all the way through. got this from a very good friend and pimp grower of growers :pimp3: I got to see this method in action on a much larger scale and it was absolutely beautiful. almost 2 lbs per 1000 watts. (!!)

1 cup kelp
1 bail sunshine #4 (substituting pro-mix, closest i can get to the sunshine)
1 cup bone meal
1 bag ocean forest
1 cup green sand
1 bag happy frog
1 cup bat guano(P)
2 bags wiggle worm
1 cup lime

i'm going to plant in the rubbermaid totes, 32 quarts i think somewhere close to 2 feet x 2 feet, corn row style - 6 rooted clones in each. :canabis:

picture.php


may as well show you what i'm workin with. two 1000 hps in bloom, a small squirell fan (maybe 200 cfm tops) pulling through a can filter.

the bloom room is about 10' long x 8 ' high x 6' wide. temps are a steady 70-75, at night low 60s sometimes mid-upper 50s.

in veg i have a 400 watt metal halide. babies are just in cups, well starting to show root stress cuz they are ready for tomorrows transplant and nutrients lol

clone setup is just a rubbermaid tote, 2 air stones, an air pump, and a submersible heater all from petsmart (intended for 10 gal fish tanks). i buy one of the Sunleaves Float and Grow styrofoam inserts, then use rapid rooter plugs or whatever your preference. works pretty well. water goes through a brita filter, and gotta make sure you change it once a week (i water out of it when i need to change it). just hang a 2 strip T5 over the top, plugged in to the same timer as veg (20/4).

Nice work khaleel!
I got a similar soil im mixin up now.
do you layer it or use that alone?
does your mix need to cook or do use it right away?

Ohhh Hell Yeah...you keep doing it bigger and better...

Ohhhh, and the strains. The strains look amazing...do you make those crosses?

I am definitely subscribed...I just got excited when I saw all those soil amendments. Are you planning on using anything.. molasses, the occasionally tea or booster, or only nutes if absolutely necessary?
Keep it growing

cyat: thanks bro, no need to cook the mix it is good to go. mycorrhizae and rhizobium etc. are already in the happy frog and ocean forest so all is well in microbial land...

Epiphyte: lol thanks bro, gotta keep evolving, that is how we got to where we are in the first place no? :smoke: well for additives this mix has everything needed so no... of course if things start going wrong (knock on wood) i will do what is needed in real time to save them, as i would with any system, but no it should all work beautifully.. saw it in action and plants were very healthy, at different phases of bloom and growth.. i'll do molasses probably during the flush cuz i am old school like that lol but nothing else. thanks for the post mate!

boooooom: haha hell yeah man glad you found the new digs :canabis: gonna be a fun one, hopefully more colors to come :smoke:

heady b: that is what we like to see, pull one on up :D

seismic: thanks bro glad you made it! :wave:

enzee: hell yeah just pm me and i will do my best to make it, would be a great time i'm sure :yes: :joint:

nameless:seriously, i guess the organic threads are the place to be huh lol gald you made it bro

core: lap dance my ass, they better offer you a tug job if they my ho's. :D haha welcome aboard man the party can now start.

arbitrary capitalization is One of my favorite things... :D lol i thank you kindly, cannex, i appreciate the good vibes and kudos. what was the deal with your grow--i went and checked it out, looked like you took those vanillium (?) from seed to bud in just shy of 9 MONTHS (?!) :nono: inquiring minds wanna know ha welcome aboard my friend, glad to have the company. :hands-palm-to-palm:

GOOROO

hey khaleel...I have a very indefinite feeling I know who showed you this mix, and he grows a lotta nice kushes.

used this mix before myself once or twice and it is the bomb....might have to give some longer strains just a tad bit of fert near the end

i love these organic water only mixes. i use a similar one myself and add occasional teas and fish emulsions, seaweed extracts, molasses, epsom salts, fulvic acids.

hey brotha, thanks for the kind words and be sure to drop a note in here once your thread is up! and hell yeah if we get together you are definitely in the list of invites, and least for me, you been one of my regular homies on this site for years :D let's see, the perlite is for drainage.. if i didn't have anything on the bottom, the bottom layer tends to stay soaked.. your conventional pots and grow bags have drainage holes for this reason, but the totes do not. idk with the cat litter containers i don't worry about it and things are fine (see monster TW x killer chem lol) but figured i better be safe since it is such a big container. besides i had a bag of perlite laying around :smoke: lol as for the green sand, here ya go (organic.gardening.about.com -- somethin like that): Greensand is an organic fertilizer that contains the deposits of minerals that were once part of the ocean floor. Also called "glauconite," greensand has a bluish-green color. The NPK ratio for greensand is approximately 0-0-3. It is a good organic source of potash (important for overall plant health and disease resistance) and can also be applied at a rate of 50 to 100 pounds per 1000 square feet to improve clay soils. (I've never used it before, just following the notes from my guru lol)

canaexists: ahhh thanks ma'am. :tiphat: was wondering about that.. i'm paranoid about friending certain folks on this site cuz i know there are narcs out there, so i always look at people's threads for inconsistencies and/or to see if they know what they are talking about... your breeding is light years beyond my knowledge of any of it, so kuddddddos, i couldn't believe how delicious those looked under the compact cfl. :respect: anywho please stick around glad you made it.

oldbootz: thanks for the post and welcome aboard, friend! :wave:

gooroo: lol hey rock on man, i wonder if you are right... i'm trying to think of the kushes homeboy has in stock... the Pre-98 Bubba Kush (F2) is the only one i can think of. welll, wait there was the pink kush, what else... if he has love potion it may be. that is probably all ima say about it cuz he might not want me blabbing away :smoke: anyway thanks and welcome aboard, hopefully it works for me!

cheers, more harvest pics on sunday
