Teamsleep.... From my experiences with SPT, I feel real confident, the new Grow, Foliar & Bloom are going to kick a*s. I say new, but the guy who sold it to me, tells me their community (family, extended family, local customers) have been using it for a couple of years - growing the biggest, tastest Tomatoes in their county - which I get a real kick out of - because they live in STONE County Arkansas - thats where Mountain View is. LOL...
.
I live a couple hours south of there. The first time I got some SPT from them, I opened the box - and there it was - wrapped in a couple of pages of the Stone County Newspaper. I just had to laugh. A community of peace loving, back to nature Hippies - living in Stone County. Now isn't that ironic - don't you think..
.
Truth is often stranger that fiction & more entertaining.

Keep it Real .... Organic....

So if I were to use only BMO PT and BMO Flower Power in my res (aero) for the entire flowering period, do you think that would be fine? Or should i find other things to add...lol

Im diggin this organic stuff...

by the way Ohso you da man...

Cann..... The SPT would provide protection for your roots from bad bacteria and would help bio-covert any NPK in the res. to it's most useble (soluble form). I would just run it through a paper coffee filter first, since it sometimes has a little sediments.
.
The NPK of the Flower Power 1-8-7 is geared for a decent finish. So, quite simply Yes... I think it would carry you just fine. If you began to see any signs of premature yellowing of the bottom leaves - just drop in a quarter strength dose of your grow formula.
.
& Thanks...I try to help when I can.....

Alright sweet...and i got a filter in my res so i think i'll be good. Just put some in like five minutes ago. A little SPT and a little foliar harmony in the res. I'm still in veg so no flower power yet but i should be building my box tomorrow I'm pumped to see whats about to happen...

Cann.... I was chating with a guy, who hydros on another board this afternoon. He lives near Mountain View, so he's been buying the stuff at a local farmers market for a while. He told me, the Flower Power was great in his ebb & flow setup and made for some sweet buds - but like all ferts he advised to watch the pH & tds. Just because it's Organic doesn't mean it's perfect. All ferts effect pH & tds in hydro. Since, water is different everywhere, it's always safest to start with a slightly weaker than recommended dose and work up. Which is what I always do, regardless of medium.

Just wanted to stop by and say thanks again for the advice on the mag def, everything is looking great! Man, my white widow and lavender have just taken off the past 2 weeks i fell bad that my mazzar is getting anough intensity i guess that will teach me to put staiva's with a full blooded indica! O well its my first so ill learn. Sad to say but my girl is making me quit untill we get our own house so i only get one harvest. I just got my root hormone in too, lol i have like 6 lower branches that look perfect,but i guess ill have to wait. sigh but no worries im getting my botany degree so something tells me ill be back! Well im out to the beautiful Buffalo River this weekend! to low to float but not to low to "toke"!




Wanna be real?



Be organic!

out.

Have a good time at the river, gg! Sorry you're gonna have to quit growing, though. You're at the opposite side of the continent from me, or I'd suggest you send over some clones (although, I admit, I am struggling with half my clones, but the other half still live ). Can you put yours in stasis?

GoingG I am lucky, my wife doesn't mind my gardening. I do it away from the house, so I think that helps. You could start some seeds quitely and plant them away from the house. Still enough time make some short & sassy plants. A little here, a little there. It all adds up. The Buffalo is a great place to hang. Have you ever floated the Kings River ? A lot of people don't know about it, it's a nice relaxing float with good fishing.

ts Here is a bud shot of a Skunk / NL cross only two weeks into flowering. I have used only the flower power by BMO on this plant and two others, since preflowering. All there bud sites look like this one, its going to be a good harvest. I ordered some more of the stuff. I;m going to hit all my ladies with it.

i think i may have to pick up the rest of bmo's offerings.

DO I! I love the kings one of the first rivers i floated when i moved to AR. Very good fishing as well.

The buffalo was really low but there is a place in pruit that we go that has i think around 40ft drop off a bluff, the first time i saw it i really wanted to jump but didnt.lol But just saterday i did it! man i was so ripped it was the best feeling that i have ever had! Talk about a way to rid ones couch lock!

Catin: i know one day ill be back but im going to have to agree with my girl eventhough i know the maintenc man and were cool!( he has no clue but he smokes so i think if he did know he would come to me first.) I just want to be in a house. ya know? this apt shit with people everywhere freaks me out! plus i have a great connect with some vending machine grade shit so ill take this experiment and learn from it for the next time! but im trading my marry for tomatoes and other goodies so i should stay on point!

Sea: man i know i wish i could get you some of these lavender clones. what is stasis?

Stasis is like suspended animation. I've read somewhere on this board that there's a method to cutting and preserving them in refrigeration, they'll last up to 8 weeks if it's handled properly. If I recollect, they're cut, but not rooted until they hit their final destination.

WOW, sounds cool something i might need to do!

Thanks sea!

hey everyone, im using technaflora, i want to jump to organic this next cycle, what would you recommend for a dwc/active drip? 250 watt hps

I use the STP with grow green and flower power from the guys at BMO in my dwc and it works great i also add unsulphured molasses and epsome salt for mag! Check em out there on ebay


Ive read that the micro's really thrive since your adding all that oxygen to the water, but im still in the process of researching this so if anyone could help?

The microbeasties likely need lots of oxygen, but what I haven't yet ascertained is if they need to be attached to a surface (i.e. in aquatics, you have "benthic"--those associated with the seafloor or surfaces, and free-floating) or what. I'm sort of thinking that since we're talking about soil microbes here, we're talking almost necessarily about a benthic group of species.

I was thinking the same thing ill ask my plant biology teacher tommarrow she has her DR so she should know!

Ohso was saying that they just float around untill they come in contact with the roots. so if you had a some kind of top feed you would think you would be able to harness its full potential!

Goinggreen..... Yes, a top feed set up would provide additional benefits. You could just hand water, using some of your reserviour water every few days - just to keep things simple.
.
The more root contact your micro-beasties have, the more good they will do you. But even while free floating, they are consuming NPK and bioconverting it to more plant soluble size. So, mycho fungi are handy little guys.

Welcome Xochi..... I'm glad to see you are interested in Organic Growing. It is really the most healthy way, both for you & your plant. By creating a bio-active environment for your plants - you are much closer to what they exspect. Closer to Nature - Closer to Right.
.
I always compare growing, only on chem nutes, to raising a kid on Cookies & Soda Pop. You can keep up alive and fatten up, but are they as healthy as they can be ? With Organics - plants truly get all that they need, they are more pest / disease resistant and don't suffer from pH issues as often. I personally prefer soil, but I don't knock hydro. Both can be done Organic, with good yields and a great end product.
.
Since, Organic Growing is becoming more popular, more good products are being offered. Earth Juice, Botanicare and BMO all make good quality all nature ferts / amendments. With all of them, the key is to start low and build up slowly in hydro. Checking pH & TDS is a must. So you need a good pH checker & TDS checker to do it right. Just because they are Organic does not make them perfect.
.
I also recommend the SPT for root development & protection. Myco fungi are excellent amendments in either soil or water. Other products are Myco Magic, Sub Culture and Plant Sucess. All contain the myco fungi you need.
.
Several, people on this thread are using all natural products in hydro with great sucess. We will start a separate thread just about Organic Hydro Growing just for you. See, aren't you glad you came over to the Organic Threads - we are the fun, helpful, easy going people on RIU. We have a little Hippy DNA in us. LOL...
.
Keep it Real...Organic....

And another for cloning using the SPT or other organic means. I've taken my second set of clones yesterday, and I'm using the SPT along with seaweed extract and, yes, rooting hormone for that extra "just in case" kick since I'm totally new at it. However, I know that willow bark teas can be used as well. When I get my live material up I might experiment with each thing on its own to see which can be used best as a rooting agent.
