Yes, I am aware. Many people have had success growing in other different styles and different medias. I still consider myself a new grower since I have only been growing for 3 years now. This is the only method I have tried and it works for me and its nice to connect with others that grow the...

Anything specific you would like me to be more transparent about?

Apologies if my previous comment came across as overly formal. I'm genuinely excited to connect with fellow growers using the Bugbee Method and exchange insights.

Hi there Bruce nugbee, I just stumbled upon your post and I'm thrilled to see another grower using the "Bugbee Method"! I've been employing Dr. Bruce Bugbee's media mix recipe and nutrient recommendations for the past 3 years, and it's been a game-changer for my plant performance and yield...

The Fertilizer that Dr. Bugbee recommended was the 20-10-20 "Peat Lite Special". I made this same mistake by buying the Jack's 20-10-20 "General Purpose". The Peat Lite Special has double the micronutrients than the General Purpose.

Also I would assume just like Dr. Bugbee said "people have steered away from Vermiculite because it's expensive" and whenever I listen to or watch a person who grows in coco they never mentioned Vermiculite. I didn't even know Vermiculite was a thing till I heard Dr. Bugbee mention it. But...

Also I don't think I got a chance to update you all on my last grow which was a Girl Scout Cookies Extreme (Auto) from ILGM. The seed was given to me by a freind. I got 5oz of the plant, unfortunately I stunted her in her veg cycle but I am still happy with the results. This plant was grown with...

Thank you for this. I was able to find a shop close by that is a distributor of Aquagro 2000G. Maybe this is what I need for my Peat mix. Also I do have some yucca powder on me, would I be able to mix that into my media and have it be effective?

Promix bx, I am checking it out and it looks like a nice recipe and it has nutrients in it already. How do you like/prefer that compared to Dr. Bugbee's mix? Also I take it that packing any media into a pot is a bad idea cause it won't be as fluffy thus causing the roots to suffocate. So then...

Yes, yucca is kind of expensive but I didn't know what to get or what kind of wetting agent you can mix into your media. Tall containers work best, really?! I would have assumed a wider container okay well that's something new. What about how they are able to keep their media or any media fluffy...

Thank you for that. Yes I would say the one with more shoots would have the smaller buds unfortunately. There is usually a happy medium in there. I try to only top once cause of this. I am trying my best to correct the issue. I know it's user error aka my fault. Haha it's just difficult trying...

Thank you for the reply and for the info. Any information on his media mix and what wetting agent he adds to his media mix? I know he says they keep their media pretty fluffy so the plants are not at all stressed in the root zone. I'm guessing he uses Yucca Powder (since I'm unable to find any...

Could be different phenotypes. But I am not sure. That is great to hear you are not having any issues. I am starting to have issue with my grow. My tap water which is what I have been using since I have been growing has gone up in EC from 0.5 to 0.7 so I feel that is too hard to give to my...

I have questions about the root zone. What if anything did you lean that you found to be really helpful with keeping the root zone optimized? Also about his new media Mix I know he uses 75% Peat Moss, 13% Vermiculite, 12% Rice Hulls amended with Wollastonite at 1g per Liter of media, Hydrated...

Yeah, I can't wait to see your updates and results! I did my mixing by volume, ft³ (cubic foot).

Pestle and mortar.

His updated mix is: 75% peat 13% vermiculite 12% rice hulls 0.7kg/m3 wetting agent 1kg/m3 wollastonite 1.3kg/m3 hydrated lime

Also quick update on my last grow which was a Bruce Banner Auto flower from ILGM. I got 10oz of dried cured bud off this plant.

Pallet Dolomite Lime, to be honest I didn't know it came in pallets. I got the wrong dolomite lime as it was more like large salt or tiny pebbles I crushed my dolomite lime with a Stone Mortar Bowl, it did a good job at making it more like a powder. I now use hydrated lime since it's part of...

I used my tap water which is a bit hard at an EC of 0.5. But my plants do fine.
