Best grow thread I’ve seen in a long time buddy. Massive respect! They must’ve been a lot of work with the staking required, but certainly worth the effort.
Question for you on your organic mix. I’ve had quite a challenge getting crab shell meal & wonder if you think insect frass might be a viable alternative. I’m assuming the crab shell meal was used for its contribution of chitin...?
Looking forward to the smoke report on those girls.
Thank you for the kind words folks.
Bench, you are correct on the chitin but the calcium was also a factor. Little N and P doesnt hurt either. I think the frass is a good option too.
Black Swallow Soil has crab meal and oodles of other stuff.
I may have asked this before but what are you using to bump the K for the tea ? I just use EWC and some Kelp and either high N or high P guano (thanks Tom) depending on how far along with the black strap molasses and bubble for 36 hours or so.Hit it with some high K Tea's and they should sweat it out.
