hey man definitely a great post. an awesome read and with awesome visuals.

but maybe you can assist me.

i would like to start an official grow. I've done a ton of research in the past weeks and continue to read & watch any material i can as days go by. i have gathered all of my supplies needed to start, but before starting i wanted to be clear on some thing.

i plan to grow organically, and will utilize the drain-to-waste hydrosoil watering method, in which i will be feeding with each watering. i will be using roots organic potting soil mix, along with earth juice grow, bloom, catalyst, micro blast, meta-k and bloom master. i plan to use wholesome unsulfured molasses for my cal-mag, and will also add more mykos when transplanting seedlings. i will be using a 45 LED grow light overhead, and a 10w LED that will be placed on the floor between my pots.

i guess overall my question is, is there a such thing as "too much" fertilizer for your plants? do you ph your water, and what type of water do you use?(ex. ro, tap, rain)

also, does earth juice fall under the organic line?

a lot of threads that i have read about organic growing highly suggest it and its definitely in my price range. I've also heard a lot of great things about nectar for the gods as well, especially from nationwide medical collectives such as north coast, its just a bit out of my price range atm.

again, great thread man and your feedback is greatly appreciated.

my suggestion is to start with little fertilizer and work more into each grow. if your going organic just buy some ROOTS ORGANIC powdered nutrients, then you just have to add water. A $15 bag of uprising bloom will last you forever and a half.

next round I'm starting to exclusively run gear by RIU breeders!! new thread and new strains.

Ok i will definitely take a look into that nutrient line as well. thanks a bunch man. looking forward to the new thread.

net thing put up in the big room.

hey man just had another question. I've been looking at the roots organic line and think i will give it a try. i am on a budget tho so purchasing each powder fertilizer will be quite a pretty penny. but i have also taken a look at the roots organic player pack and wanted to know your insight on that? it says it is organic but again its liquid nutes just like earth juice, but they are saying its organic, and also when adding them to water do i adjust ph? on their website it says not too, but a few forums i checked out a lot of ppl have different opinions. what do you think? and would i still need a cal-mag supplement is that what Trinity is for?

Oh and my bud uses nectar of the gods for nutes

That isn't organic nice grow, but you are doing drain to waste hydroponics and not organic gardening.

Just with that one bag you can grow pretty good bud for a year...less than $15

Not stuck in anything or hating, pouring nectar of the gods on your grow isn't organic. Sorry you are offended by the truth. Nectar of the gods is a salt based hydroponic nutrient, you are doing drain to waste hydroponics. I came here to see an organic grow and on the second post you talk about using synthetic fertilizers....that is not organic, might as well change the post to soil and led.

The 3 base bottles from NoTG are organic along with a lot of there other stuff... Brewed the same way we brew compost tea.... Just because it's on a bottle doesn't mean it isn't organic. And btw... If you analyze ANY organic substance you will find some type of salt in it. Microbes make salts which the plants uses... Plus NoTG is calcium based. I say your stuck in a mind set cause you think that's your right though if you research a little you'll find out your wrong. I'm not offended homie, but I do believe what I'm doing is organic so I'm going to defend myself on my thread

some shot of the room and a pic of how i start my mainlining on a Strawberry Sour Diesel. ill use the bottom shoots for clones.

love the set up man, all your plants look great

VEG

MAIN FLOWER

OVER POWER FLOWER

cotton candy' are starting to turn purple
this time I'm not dropping the temps and its still doing it...i should get a bigger yield =]



oh and i hit a 707 truth band (super frosty) with some black sugar rose pollen and dropped her in the bottom of this room. hopefully i don't seed up my cotton candy

big flower


big veg

some bud shots.

the THC bombs didn't like when i added some roots organic SURGE. this is the second time my plants didn't like it so i won't be suing it ever again=P plus i think I'm leaning more and more toward no till. seams simpler and people have been getting SUPER FROST with the right soil mix.

its cool to see that the Cotton Candy is turning purple under the 4000k cob and not the 3000k cob

critical super silver haze can take anything and stay super green=] really good genetics. ill be crossing it with a forbidden space fruit(alien rift x black cherry dojo)

room shots
1 cotton candy
4 critical super silver haze
5 thc bomb
random awesome genetics on the side. 707 truthband, LSD, florida OG, amherst sour diesel, and bubba gift
