I know peeps that use the EJ line..........the buds smoke,look,and taste great. I'm just not on the trip anymore. If it's working good for you and you don't mind paying for it...Sweet deal,it's organic.

I think my plants could of grown a little denser, but I did have small environmental issues...One thing for sure is I will be throwing in some EWC on all my EJ brew in the future. I didn't know about that before. I also have the HiBrix to add as well...

I am going to use EJ on a run of 12 707 Headband. I have all my issues worked out for my space and I am going to run a little stronger EJ brews for every watering.

Anyone have experience growing organic 707 Headband???

I don't know if it makes it "stronger", but the theory is there will be more microbes introduced to your soil, hence they will be there to break down the nutes for your plants... so in a sense, I suppose it could make it "stronger." I've also added some of their Mycorrhizae (Hydro-Organics brand), which could, for the same reasons, make it "stronger" I suppose...

Like I've said this is my first run, so I can't really add too much to the discussion, but I am following Jman's final schedule for EJ, which includes the Hi-Brix and he ixnays the Meta-K. If you ask him, I'm sure he'd be more than happy to send you a copy of his final schedule... he goes by jmansweed on this site...seems he knows what he's doing.

Switched to EJ bloom mid flower for a no N bloom feed.....

It slams my ph into oblivion...... Kinda annoying

It does have that tendency

The solution starts out at pH 3.2 to 3.7 for me, but after bubbling it for a couple of days, it rises quite dramatically- sometimes too much so. I've gone to bed with a pH of 3.7 and woke up with a pH over 7- it definitely takes some doing.

It's pretty funny, because I have never used a Ph Meter for my EJ brews...maybe I should invest in one or at least some Ph drops...

Well, we've all heard "throw your pH meter away" when using organics, but I think for those of us who are recent converts from chemical nutes, it's hard to believe it. I mean, pH HAS to have some role still, obviously, but maybe it just "works itself out" in the soil medium... I dunno.

Has anyone used Rootstock gel for 'cloning'?

Was success rate acceptable? I have a recipe for making my own mix, but won't have all ingredients in time, so i was going to pick up a 1.5oz jar.

Anyone have thoughts?

Hydroponic Ph up\down kills the herd. Also since EJ is really organic doesn't that make ph a moot point? As the microherd should naturally stabilize you alkaline tea to around 7ish.

Hey farmers - Just wanted to say that I got no hard feelings with anyone, if I could go back I would have handled things differently.

Gonna leave it at that - Wish ya all the tastiest - fattest - smelliest buds, good luck with your discussions.

Ill try to follow along & pull out quality data to add to the EJ sticky. Feel free to tune in & ill try to be as helpful & respectful as I can.

Tac Out

Cool, thanx Tac!

I've been running Jmans EJ schedule side-by-side against Age Old Organics & my "mainly" GH schedule (GH Nova Bloom, GH Floralicious Plus, Sweet, Bloombastic, Hygrozyme). I'm in week 5 1/2 of 9 & the plants are pretty even, but the EJ plant is looking extremely healthy with no signs of stress whatsoever! This is my first run with EJ & I dont ph or bubble or brew....just use my filtered water & mix the nutes according to Jmans schedule and feed. So far, so good. I'll keep u guys posted!

Peace

Does it really.... It's not poison up and poison down....

I would so love to stop with the ph adjusting thing.... I may just give it a try someday.......
