On the drains, there are two bathroom sinks here that I seem to have to clean out the P trap at least twice a year. Inside is always a nasty slime buildup that compromises the drain. Yesterday, I poured a cup of fresh bokashi juice down each drain and forgot about them. As I understand it, it is the long-term benefit of having healthy microorganisms thriving in my pipes rather than nasty and/or stinky ones that I seek. If I don't have to clean nasty slime out of that trap in a few months I will consider it to have worked or at least helped. Apparently EM can do good things for septic systems and outhouses, also.
I love the approach. I wonder how it works with 2-3 foot long hairs clogging up the pipes... about 4 times I year I haul out a globbly mess of not-my-hair
Oi yeah, plants are coming along beautifully.
boil white vinegar and pour a shit-load of baking soda down the drain. When the vinegar gets hot pour it on top of the soda. The vinegar and baking soda will bubble all that crap away. My drains are messed up in my apt. and this works well for me.
many organic gardening books say that hair (human, dog, cat, horse) can be used in compost... EM & bokashi is more or less just accelurated composting, right? should be fine...Regarding Effective Microorganisms and hair. I have read that hair can be successfully composted in a worm bin, so some microorganism can do it.

I flower my plants in a 4x4 tent, with a 1K HPS. The room is not sealed, and i rely completely on air exchange for my CO2 (no supplemental CO2). If you are looking for a large grow you will be disappointed here, since I grow only for my self.
I grow from seed or my own clones only.
My soil is recycled. It is about two years old right now, and just getting better as far as I can tell. My inputs are ALMOST all organic, with a few exceptions I will eventually discuss.
I am currently exploring Bodhi Seeds gear and have a keeper of Lucky Charms, and am sorting through four females each of Dream Beaver and Sunshine Daydream. I hope to have a keeper cut of each of these three by the end of the year so that I can explore the seeds I have for 2015 (Lotus Larry, Black Triangle, Superstitious, and Love Dawg). The only other cut I am currently holding is the HPRC cut of Ganja Rebel's Double Strawberry Diesel.
One final warning before you enter. I can be a grumpy fucker, and i have significant back pain so if i seem like a dick it's because I am one.
But I do love ganja. My goal is to grow what I like best, and I have no market to play to. I like it that way. PMed and moldy herb sprayed with godknowswhat? Not for me.
The number one reason I started this journal was to have a place to discuss soil.
I have learned a great deal from many people here at ICMag and want to make sure these discussions keep rolling.
A few days ago I posted this photo of my Lucky Charms keeper in the Bodhi Seeds info thread, it was grown from clone at 63 days flowering, water only, recycled soil. I will use it as a launch point for this thread with the promise of fresh photos to come.
