Anyone know why The Rev, True Living Organics (TLO) stopped posting on skunkmagazine.com?

Hi there, I’m flowering in a 2x4 tent and will soon be getting ready for the transition into bloom. I’ve been using 5gal fabric pots but read on here 5gal pots don’t leave much room for the microbial sphere around the roots. I can currently fit 4, 5gal pots in my tent. Do you think I’d have a...

hey I checked my PPMs yesterday before feeding and I was around 500. Definitely low for synthetics, but for organics I’m not sure how much it matters.

i have a 6” filter on one side of the tent and the mushroom bags on the other. Honestly I don’t know about the mushroom bags, but I figured it couldn’t hurt for $25 a bag. And I like to support the Detroit area even though I’ve been removed from NW Ohio / SE Michigan for a while now. Here’s the...

My tent is in an unused laundry room with hot air being blown out of the dryer vent. The room is only a little larger than my tent and doesn’t have an AC vent, however I leave the door open with a fan blowing AC from the other room. I also have a 4” intake fan coming in around pot level with the...

hey apologies I thought of a couple questions reading through your post again. With your soil mixture do you add any additional organic nutrients in veg or flower? You mentioned adding oyster shells to your flowering pots, do you put any in the veg container? Is your soil mixture similar for...

thank you! This is really helpful.

hey thanks man. Can you recommend a good soil probe? I’ve looked at blue lab, but the reviews I read varied a lot so I didn’t pull the trigger. also with the oyster shells, how much would I add per gallon of soil/perlite?

yeah you are right. I like the idea of using the ewc tea, then going with only EJs Grow, Bloom, and cal/mag for a few more weeks switching to only bloom and a little cal/mag for the last 3 to 4 weeks. I’ll try removing the k first before I think about adding it back.

thank you! What other organic nutrients would you recommend? And yeah EJs grow smells really bad.

hey you said to stop using ph for a while. Is there a range when I should? For example reading below 5.0 use up, or over 7.5 use down? When I bubble for a day or two I’ll sometimes see the ph around 8. Should I ph down in the instances?

hey thanks for the tips here. I’m definitely going to try your tea. I do actually sprinkle a teaspoon or two of mycorrhiza on the root ball and hole when transplanting from 2gal in veg to 5gal in flower. It was about 2 to 2.5 weeks after transplanting in flower when I started to see issues. The...

thanks for all the help. I’m going to make a tea today and try adding a little more meta-k when they’re ready a few days after the tea/ewc. I’ll follow up to share if it worked.

thanks I’ll check tonight.

yeah that seems like a lot of water. For the fix here, do you recommend flushing or just try using castings and lowering the amount of EJ I’m using?
