I don't think your last post was out of line at all Yosemite!
Question everything!
Question everything!
actually; i totally agree w/ spraying @ my convenience
the only exception i have even noticed is spraying w/ neem and i just turn the lights off for the rest of that cycle that day
we should probably have that all out of the way before the flip though

I ordered northernberry a couple of different times. I think I went through about 30 seeds total!
It was the first real strain I ever grew... pretty damn good. We let it go for 12 weeks and oh my was it ever a knock you out indica.
How long have you been growing the skunkberry? Any pics?

I have not flowered her out yet. Just picked it up from a friend who has run her a bunch here in my local area. No pictures yet but soon.
I will put a 50 day veg on her and then throw her in.

Good job on those BTW!

hey organic people!
it's time for me to move in front side...
I've been reading all the previous thread and now this.
it took time to follow all the details presented in here.
Tnx th all the akwnoledged people involved, CC, Gastanascan, MM, blue, cann, silver, vonforne, neo, sour, seandawg,w89 ecc, all your contributes made my mind swirl in joy...
In my searches I really needed all the knowledge in here...
I'm a long time organic grower.
I grow in soma's modified style beds with organic reciclying soil.
been through supersoil and modified its' recipe since the beginning.
with the new ideas found in these thread I'm upgrading my knowledge and my soil menagment.
I'm a wormbreeder, act maker, fpe maker and I love this.
I'm always amazed by the easyness to have those beautiful organic amendants at one or two stores in th us...
here every piece of the puzzle needs to be collected in a specific place or shop or ordered.
every part of the world has different markets and products.
it's all about lookimg in the right place.
feed stores are a good resurce.also fishing stores for fish meal, crab meal and worms.
nature here provides most of nettles, alfaalfa, horsetail, artemisia, chamomille, dandelions and yarrow needed. going to sow some confrey or borago this year...
very difficult to find neem or karanja meal, but it's a v country with many mountains and vulcanoes, so clays, rocks and precious stuff is easy to find.
rice hulls are a good advice with pumice, lava rocks.
here around I found available, and I used them in past with great results some products not seen in this thread like litotaminum, mearl, vinasse, bentonite, zeolite, fosforite, leonardite, lupine meal.
From my past very good results .i had with animal source of nutrients like guanoe bird and bat and bloodmeal and bonemeal I'm quite reluctant in totally leave them aside... I was thinking in my new batch to mix a tiny amount of those to help diversity of sources anyway in my soil. what do you think?
I love the aloe vera effect, but I havent' found any silica solution yet.
sodium silicate is wrong? shall it be potassium silicate?
any source of agsil in europe?
tnx for all precious advices here,
I cannot wait to learn more.
ps all my plants and pictures of the last 4 years are completely ortanic rols... take a look at my albums

edit: found right now the reason to leave bone and blood meal aside... tnx!

Welcome, doc. Glad to have you join us.
re: foliar spraying...i was told that you spray at the start or end of the day...end of day being better since plants transpire more during the day and take up better during the night...
yes some additives will burn if applied during the day but generally clean plain water does no damage...dirty water on the other hand can burn leaves if applied in hot conditions...

Can i join in and explain my K.I.S.S compost tek folks!!!!!!!
Can i join in and explain my K.I.S.S compost tek folks!!!!!!!
You may remember me in the outdoor forum,i had a STICKY!!
Composting method..
Here is a way to compost using all natural materials from your YARD!
Assuming you HAVE a yard,you will get the (BEST SOIL MONEY CANT BUY PERIOD).
THIS IS ALSO a better way of NATURALY seeing/smelling/tasting organic weed!!!!!
Getting the best expressions from your strains FLAVOR MOSTLY!!..most everything these days is potent anyway!
its all about using materials found in a natural forest floor....not all them additives,
NOT dissing them but plants absorb all that bat shit,fish gutz,and whatever else ya use????
NOT NEEDED....but you can add the amendments mentioned in this thread if you like...,
but let your pile sit for a few months or you'll burn plants sometimes?...especially lime.
READY!
Here ya go...First thing you will need is a (THICK BLACK PLASTIC) 4 mil,6 mil or
a POND LINER!...thats what i use its expensive but worth every hundred dollar.......275$
mine cost, but it WAS a Koi pond at first anyways haha!!
PLACE the plastic in a sunny location,HEAT helps breakdown but it works in shade too..
You will be gathering all the time and adding to your piles year round if you live down
south.....but up north you got summers,up north the natural forests floor builds with
naturally composted materials from the SNOWS every year.
Down south we dont have that an the soils SUCK BAD!
So,first spread the plastic out and only use one half to build your layers,the other half
will be the cover......the REASON FOR THE PLASTIC is to keep all the juices from going
right into the ground and loosing all the nutes.........a cement slab would work if painted?
NOW,the first MATERIALS to get are (GREEN FRESH WEEDS,GRASS,LEAVES)anything live!
The green materials give gasses that breakdown the pile and nitrogen,decaying BLACK!!!!
You will have 3 basic layers: GREEN stuff,Sticks/twiggs,and Brown stuff...in that order and build many layers high!
Each layer can be 6 inches to a foot thick..
So now,gather twiggs branches no bigger than your pinky..
thats the second layer used for air in the piles..less rot probs.
everything rots but you'll know if its TO rotten.
BROWN MATERIALS is your 3rd layer,any leaves,grass,dead
plants...water well at this point and keep building layers!!!
WATER,is really needed to breakdown the piles so SOAK with every layer when building..
Get the piles about 4 to 6 feet high and then just flap over the plastic COVER side!!
Keep soaking the piles every 3 or 4 days if to hot,or atleast ounce a week...................
WORMS COME FREE,with in a few months time you may see worms in your pile!!!
You will have to (TURN YOUR PILES) a few times a year,just open the cover and now
use that side for the floor and pitchfork it over from top to bottom....
THIS IS ANOTHER TIME TO ADD GREEN MATTER,get more green stuff and add in layers!
My PILE has MILLIONS of WORMS all for FREE,it is so cool how NATURE WORKS!!!!!!!
Try this even on a small scale.....when you SMELL the SOILS you have made you'll know
THATS WHY FARMERS CALL IT"BLACK GOLD" FOR A REASON it just doesnt get any better.

I was always under the impression it was beneficial to have a compost pile come in direct contact with the ground to inoculate it with the native micro organisms?
Also how much leeching is really happening when the cations get tied up by the negatively charged hummus particles that begin to form and the anions immobilized in the bodies of microbes?

I was thinking the same thing Durdy. The worms will come up from the ground to the compost pile. I do like the idea of OLDpro's compost taco, it would make mixing very easy! I have made real good leaf mold by using a tarp filled with wet leaves in a taco fashion before. It was quite effective at maintaining heat and moisture.
WRONG!..if your in my area,i got beach sands
and i open my taco for RAINS and tha does flush
quite a bit of nutes racing threw the florida sands strait down.
NEVER have your compost on the bare ground,say good by to nutes.....if you want to keep ALL your nutes but in places with
hard clay you may not loose as much but still loose im shure.
All your worms and microbes come from the raked up stuff!!!
FREE...try it in a corner of your yard you will get compost at a way faster rate and the pore HEAT the better!!
THIS IS GUARRENTIED TO GET YOU THE BEST SOIL YOU EVER SEEN/SMELT!..or grew in period......the word is"NATURAL"
think on that for a while,im using only mother earth for taste!
try it,before judging maybe.....have you ever seen my plants?
Lou frikin grew!...been here since the doors opened in 2004'
not highjackin here just offering my knowlege!
By the way BLUEJAYWAY^^ did i say (only) anyplace no!
dont put words in my mouth.

Fuck!....guess I'm screwed.
I really count on my compost for it's humic value.....what do I do now that all the 'nutes' are 'leeched' from the compost before I even used it..????....I'm only weeks from harvest..Nonsense.
The best soil ever......using compost...where have we heard that before....could it be this very forum,this very thread on it's second incarnate,this very group of organic purists......could it be that we are AWARE of proper composting techniques and how to utilize it in a indoor potted plant environment....
Read this thread in the link posted below and then come back here and and tell everyone here how wrong we are in our composting methods.
