Has Anyone Really Been Far Even as Decided to Use Even Go Want to do Look More Like?

Turned out it was Pangolin guano all along.

Nice find on the grassroots no-till pots. The more I thought about it, the more I figured this had to already exist. I will still be doing this one with Flex-Seal for shits n gigs, but that's a much more economical option for sure.

I'd imagine rubberizing the inside walls of a smart pot is probably going to be more durable in the long term compared to having a layer of constantly-wet fabric wrapped in plastic wrap. Plastic sheeting on the inside of the pot would probably work fine as well, but I'm close to starting my...

Damn, thanks for the heads up. Saved me from having to air out my basement. Will be sure to do in my well-ventilated garage.

When it's fully cured, Flex-Seal Liquid is NSF food grade safe, someone on a Chameleon forum contacted the company to confirm this...

I'm new as well, learned a lot lately. If you're in Canada, look into Pro-Mix Premium Organic Herb and Vegetable for your base mix. Mix equal parts of that, perlite, and compost/EWC. Google around and see if you can get EWC locally. Amend with whatever you want. I personally went with Gaia Green...

Awesome thread. Thanks for answering all of the questions that were asked, reading through this thread is a far better primer than any indoor no-till guide I've seen online. I'm ramping up a 50gal notill bag in a 3x3 tent, excited to see if I can come close to replicating your results.

Lol, it should be fine as long as it's cured, it's just liquid rubber. https://www.flexsealproducts.com/blog/faq-items/q-flex-seal-liquid-safe-use-around-plants-animals/ I'm just kidding about the chaos pot thing btw, it's a No-Till Smart Pot. Simple as.

Damn, I just bought a huge fabric pot. Glad I read your post before putting my no-till mix into it. However, I think you were onto something with your plastic wrap idea. With a brand new smart pot, you could use a can of Flex Seal to rubberize the inside walls (leaving a couple inches at the...

That's a good question. I would be worried about that if I were using something hot like blood and bone meal, but I'm using a mix of a pretty mild compost (0.7-0.5-0.4), Pro-Mix Organic Veg and Herb (0.3-0.12-0.1) and Perlite with small amounts of quite mild amendments added. The compost tea I'm...

Is there any reason I shouldn't throw a bunch of seeds into my soil mix while it's cooking to let the roots start the myco action? I have a ton of flower seeds and pea seeds, I was thinking of letting a bunch of things sprout and smothering them with straw when my cannabis plants are ready to...

Thanks for the advice, fellas. It seems obvious now to just keep adding tea until the whole pile of substrate is wet, that should've occurred to me. Right now I have an 1800 cc/min pump (~0.06 cfm), which according to that webpage is the minimum amount of airflow needed to properly aerate a...

Thanks for the responses, I am still curious how much substrate you can inoculate per gallon of compost tea though. Does no one here inoculate their substrate before growing in it to jumpstart the microbial population?

According to http://microbeorganics.com/ my aquarium pump is only powerful enough to brew one gallon of compost tea at a time. I have 25 gallons of soilless substrate to inoculate (Pro-Mix Premium Organic Vegetable and Herb). Will one gallon of tea be enough?

Thanks for the response. What % worm castings approximately did you use in your base mix? Did you let the mix cook before using it? I intend to go no-till on my next grow, my main focus on this grow is to select my genetics. Big time respect for you no-till guys.

Hey guys, I'm looking to make 25 gallons worth of growing substrate for an indoor grow. The following is a list of all I have available right now: Base Substrate: Pro-Mix Premium Organic Vegetable and Herb Mix Ingredients: Canadian sphagnum peat moss, coir, perlite, gypsum, calcitic lime...

Thanks, I might have to do that... About 48 hours ago I put a seedling heat mat under the Jiffy greenhouse tray and covered the top so it's in darkness. I'll check to see if it has popped later this evening. It's entirely possible that the seed wasn't viable in the first place, but I'd still...

Thanks, I picked up a seedling heating mat, I'll put that under the tray and I'll kill the lights. Fingers crossed.

Everything I've seen on the subject has said to dry the seed thoroughly, then scuff. I'm tempted to just hold and hope it pops, a cursory search says old seeds might take two weeks to pop. Tough decision. Appreciate the input bro
