Ok, I've completed one coco hydro grow with pretty good results, I have also experimented with PPK's and have had great results so far...I've got a couple more plants that just started flowering using Jacks Hydroponic's in PPK with huge growth...
Even though I have had good results in hydro, I realized that i absolutely hate making RO water and mixing nutes, worrying about leaks in the system, float height, ph levels, ppm levels...etc...
I am thinking about trying a couple plants organic...I like the idea of recycling the soil, no flushing, better taste and a better overall product instead of increased yield since I only grow for myself... I had a couple of plants that smelled extremely chemical/pine/fuelly after 3 weeks of flushing that I want to make sure isn't nutes...the buds burn clean but they all taste pretty good but I want the best quality...
I have a few clones that are ready to go in my aero cloner, I think I'm going to put them into a 1g smart pot and feed them Roots Organic Grow until I can get my mix figured out...
I am thinking of using LC's Mix #1;
5 parts Coco
3 parts Perlite
2 parts Earthworm Castings
2 tablespoons powdered dolomite lime per gallon
and for nutes (mixed into soilless mix)
Every 5 gallons
1 Cup Mexican Bat Guano
1/2 cup Jamacain Bat Guano
1/2 cup Indonesian Bat Guano
1/4 cup Peruvian Bird Guano
10 Tbs Kelp meal
5 Tbs Green sand
5 Tbs Domolite lime
My goal is to use water only, add no nutes or boosters throughout the grow and get the best tasting, most natural bud I can...
Can I mix this and start using it immediately or do I need to let it cook for a few weeks?
I also had another thought, wouldn't it be smarter to mix the everything into the soilless mix except the guano and top feed those at different points during the grow to match each plants needs?
