Oldie but goodie for sure ;) I'm doing well y'all - so freakin busy no time for the forum - dealing with three dogs and two gardens - still ROLSing along - been using the same soil since I moved into my new spot October '13. I promise there will be pic updates at some point in the future lol I...

make sure you flush heavily :eyesmoke:

diggin the look of this sweet tooth cola....columns of calyxes :mrgreen:

hehe headbanger what you doin round these parts??? buckle your seatbelt lol it's a bit different over here PeaceLoveCannabis - enzyme teas are generally used for soil application only..there aren't many benefits to enzymes in the phyllosphere (not many reactions happening there compared to...

hehe just weighed that fatty cola.....34.2 grams dry :hump: now thats what i'm talkin about :mrgreen:

badass man! coco/vermicompost/forest soil sounds like an awesome mix w/ good diversity...do you have any aeration in there? (rice hulls, pumice, perlite, etc.) that might help with your rot issues and overwatering. you can definitely harvest rainwater :) and IMO i wouldn't worry about pH in...

thanks :mrgreen: I harvested at day 60 which IMO was a little early but it was getting hot and I was running out of room..didnt want to risk mildew on such a beautiful plant hehe. ideally I would've taken it at 65 days probably. here it is dried up and curing:

in terms of sugar, yes...in terms of enzymes, no. barley has a much higher diastatic power than brown rice. but definitely noted as far as sugar goes, thanks :)

no dry weight yet...soon for the SST...i usually soak for 12 hrs or so, drain, then rinse every 12 hrs until the seeds start to have a tap root. once the tap root is 1/4-1/2 inch long, i fill the jar with water and bubble for 36-48 hrs. that should produce a decent praying effect (although it...

sweet ol' ROLS "The One" x Blue Moon Rocks Bx1 biggest cola i've ever grown

i always have worms in my pots. i didn't put 95% of them there, they showed up from topdressing castings w/ cocoons. a few I placed in the pots long, long ago. I harvested a plant last week, and then cannibalized some of the soil for some rooted clones...planted 10 clones into party cups..when...

don't worry about the red stems lol...totally fine. personally, i use gypsum for sulfur. it's also a great calcium source. 1/2 cup per cuft when I am building a soil...no idea how much to add for a reamend. oh...and glacial rock dust will have sulfur too, just lower amounts

as long as the original soil was organic, you are good to go :bigjoint:

i think you are getting a bit caught up in the whole N-P-K dogma....with enough humic content and a few amendments you should be fine. i don't have anything in my soil for phosphorous specifically...just kelp, neem, comfrey, rock dusts, vermicompost, and crab meal (the only thing thats not...

hyroot - try comfrey or kelp for your phos....1/2 cup per cuft of each. i'd be surprised if you are still having issues after that.....a good topdress of comfrey should do the trick if you are mid-cycle and don't have time to reamend your soil. IMO another reason this thread is dead is because...

here is an example of the power of no-tills once they are established 4 weeks of growth from 6/4 to 7/4 (today) these are both BOxNL5/haze from swami...unreal vigor beer bottle size colas.....and this is only week 7 :mrgreen: fannnnntastic

anything that will germinate and produce enzymes... although barley is known for its high diastatic power - a.k.a. amount of enzymes. this is the reason barley is preferred by brewers...its all in the enzymes i've used mung beans, hemp seeds, alfalfa, barley, fenugreek, etc....really anything...

yeah its the texture...doesn't clump like true EWC does when slightly moist...and when its bone dry and you pour it out you can see the specks of sand in there... trash

hehe i can only imagine the destruction that a 1/2 inch diameter bamboo stake imparts when rammed into living soil..thousands of dead lifeforms, severed roots, disturbed fungal networks and bacterial communities, etc. not that the soil and plant won't immediately adapt and recover... :weed...

hehe yup my thinking is along those lines... plus its nice to have a large thing to tie branches to instead of a flimsy little stick. i also try and pick the thickest bamboo pieces I can find @ the hardware store..there is a huge variance in diameter for the same price. definitely hard to judge...
