These do not look good??? They are also only two inches tall. Is that kinda short for 25 days after planting seed??? What's missing? Can these be saved?

I still think they look over watered, and possibly 3 weeks in Light Warrior with no teas, or anything else did not do them well.

Plants are extremely resilient. Now that you have them transplanted they should be able to bounce back.

Underwater :)

No, just cut back on the water like you have already done, and they will recover.

Hey again, ESO. Hope business is booming because I'm now a big fan and spreading your name all over the state!

Those rice hulls were PERFECT for a problem I've been having with an amended coco mix I'm still tweaking.

I understand you have invested a lot of R&D into your compost tea brewers, but I'm curious if you know anything on how they would do for enzymatic digestion brews.

I'm not sure if that's the proper thing to call them, but I've spent the past month using a few different enzymes in brews with alfalfa meal and raw clippings from my organic food garden to see if the solid wastes would be consumed more quickly by the microherd in the soil. Perhaps I'm going about this all wrong?

What enzymes are you using? I am not an expert at anything:), but I don't have much experience with digestive enzymes personally.

When I have seen it done I have not seen air being used.

Can you explain to me more about what you are doing?

I'm using a product from Care Free Enzymes. It's got an older label, but I believe these are they are same thing: http://carefreeenzymes.com/water-garden/pond-fountain-step-2

I'm filling a 5 gal bucket with about 2.5 gallons of water, placing in alfalfa meal or just cut plant matter off of tomatoes and other food I have growing, adding roughly .25 mL of enzymes, then aerating it (to avoid making anaerobic environments for pathogens).

Interesting shit. I will now have to read further.
Thanks for the info. :)

Actually, I got this info from a thread on ICMag. I believe it's called "Cheaper Enzymes" or some phrase along those lines. Really should've bookmarked it :(

Also, I just read a bit of the Nettle Tea thread and found out some more useful stuff about anaerobic environments if anyone is interested.

Fermented Plant Extracts are always good stuff. A cheap thing most everyone can do.

Have you considered selling cover crop seeds? Or some type of biomass accumulator?

Not at this point because I have a bazillion other things I am in the process of bringing in. :)

It is about seed sprouting season so be on the look out for propagation gear soon.

what kind of materials are considered to be a good mulch? Can perlite be considered Organic? Just man's intervention in expanding it from it's original form dis-qualify it>>>guess?
I'ver heard you can use old cannabis stems as mulch.
I've never tried it myself. However, it seems very usable to me.

Hey ESO .... nice addition of fertilizers to the site! Got any tea recipes that you like to use in flower, veg. Post em up. I am liking the BYOS flower mix soil. The roots are exploding out the bottom of pots. Perfectly White and healthy. Next time i will limit the rice hulls used at 5lb per 18gal of soil . Almost too airy,,,constantly watering. 7lbs to 30 gal of promix#4. Just tinkering with this new toy ha ha. I want the 5gal brewer you have on the website. Have any info on it besides what is on the site? I also seen a place for Coupon Codes on your website. How does a customer acquire a "Coupon Code":good:

I will be doing coupon codes with discounts for certain items, and groups of items. There will be some just for ICMAG members. I will post about them here when they are available.

The only things I use to grow with are the BYOS flower mix, and my compost tea kits. For insects I use the OGBIOWAR foliar. I use nothing else at all to grow with. It is that simple.

If you do not want to use the OGBIOWAR foliar then I suggest the SPG tea kits as they will help to keep the insects away.

I will have some video for my 5 gallon brewer sometime this year, but I have been busy with a new web series I am producing.

The web series should be live by the end of this month.

I will obviously post here when it is live.

The first episode is going to be great for people in a non-med, non-legal Sate. :)
