sounds like some good stuff! how's about a smoke report when it's done and ready.
lavender and durban poison both did not like the outdoors when i grew them
lavender molds real quick and the durban got killed by spider mites as well :'( so sad to lose a baby to them damn bugs. hahaIn Hilo there is a Agricultural Coop that has a warehouse that is open to the public called Farm Supply Coop. They carry a lot of organic fertilizers and also has both liquid and powdered Humic Acid, Azomite, Soil Revitalizer, Dolomite Ag 10 and 65, Hydrated Lime, and almost everything else that you would need.
this soil recipe is almost exactly the one I got from Subcool via HT. Like I said, time and time and time again I'd have to give the soil a jolt of outside nutes to keep plant growing properly, at a respectable rate of growth. I'm a organic dirt farmer. I know through years of growing, I cannot out produce "Joe Shmoe" over there who's using 'salts' to grow with. I also know that as a 'dirt farmer', that my products is going to market weeks after Joe Shmoe over there who grew his crop hydroponically at the same time as my soil grow. I'm a true organic grower, meaning I use the sun mostly. Even though I know an 8 X 8 room setup under either 4 600 watts HPS or even two thousand watt HPS lights are gonna visually kick the shit outta my outdoor grow of an equal space. But I grow organically for one reason and one reason only. I love the mellow taste of all the surroundings that grew with my cannabis plant. I love the fact that once I cut my plant@ Waiakeauka

This is a Water Only Organic Soil mix~Rev says let cook for 10-14 days
question: i'm gonna be transplanting my keiki in maybe a week but i'm not wanting to spend lots of $$$ on soil. any good cheap brands that I can buy to start with, at say Walmart or somewhere? anyone use the Niu brand?
I've had good luck with Kellogg’s patio plus, it has a lot of good organic amendments built into it....if you use it be sure to mix in some extra perlite.cool definitely gonna take advantage of the worm castings deal
Brah, what are you, a "broke dick grower"? Whoever taught you how to grow forgot to tell you that cutting corners in a cannabis grow will show in the end product. But if you on a real tight budget, I suggest the "Black Gold" soil,..and good luck!
Couldn't agree more! High quality grow = high quality pakalolo.
no doubt ...plus the time and gas involved and give ur dough to walmart? and still not a sure bet...meanwhile..for 30 bucks u can get 3 cubes from a local dedicated vendor ( green hands of aloha ) and put ur mind at ease.
Yeah- and to further complicate things you can just as easily spend 400 bucks on snake oil additives too- less is more, but only to a point. I'm almost afraid to ask- but what exactly does "broke dick grower" mean- and What's a nubian? LOL
"broke dick" means no more money, broke.
