buy a multi family home, convert it over to 1 electrical service/1 meter and you should be good to go. 16K split over a 4 unit home isn't all that suspicious. If the basement is big enough, put your grow there.

Hey guys, I've posted in this thread in the past thinking I was gonna start an organic run... Now I've finally come around to it. But wanted to know what the point of using blumats is if I'm gonna constantly be watering with ACTs, SSTs and Nute teas when blumats can't water with said teas. I...

Quick question for you guys/girls that use 200x aloe powder extract... how much am I supposed to use per gallon for watering and for foliar? Thanks in advance.

Thanks man, but I just want to clarify that the compost that I currently have in my mix is not worm castings, it's mostly aged horse and chicken manure. I'll try my best to find some place local with fresh worm castings... or maybe I'll start a few bins. But with the amount of bins I'll need...

10 cu ft. The mix is already 1/3 compost, but I sourced it from a local farm. I was under the impression that it's best to use homemade worm castings to top dress with after every run. I'm thinking that the worm bin may be more trouble than it's worth, particularly if I decide to go with a...

How big of a worm bin would I need to supply enough castings for a 4x4 bed? And how often does one harvest castings? Thanks in advance

Yeah, I'm stupid. Didn't mean to put a question mark at the end of that paragraph :smile: You answered my questions in full. Thanks.

Hey man, I'm new to this too, and I have a couple of questions for you, if you don't mind. I'm assuming you picked up a 3 cuft, block of peat from wherever. I've heard those blocks actually break up to be more than 3 cuft... is that true? And did you have a difficult time mixing all of that...

Thanks guys... I'll mention, that even for my first mix, I can get my hands on some high quality compost, so I don't need to start out with the bagged stuff if that makes a difference. I have teaming with microbes already, but haven't gotten through much of it yet. For whatever reason, I thought...

I feel like I rambled and made things more complicated than they need to be. Forget all of that talk about fertz and guano, what I'm really asking is how do I get started? All of this stuff is a bit overwhelming. I can make the mix posted on the 1st page and let it sit, but then what? transplant...

I have time to let it cook, but I have to source the material and start mixing it within the next 2 weeks. That doesn't give me much time to get the amount of research that I would typically want before starting a completely new system, and that's what I mean by dive right in. So, do you think...

Thanks for the response man, but I'm still a little confused. Is the mix I posted up (that's also posted on the first page of this thread) considered a good mix? I'm fairly sure that I'll have to add other amendments via teas and foliar, but that is alright with me. Fulvic, silica, and aloe w/...

First and foremost, amazing thread guys. I really appreciate it. I'm about to build a no till bed, but have never grown in soil before. I'm a hydro guy who is sick of mixing nutes, ph'ing everything, and crawling around wires and multiple reservoirs in a cramped room, so I'm making the switch...

edit: just realized this thread is dead. Sorry about the bump.

Okay, so based on the responses in this thread, I'm gonna start off w/ 30 and up it if need be. Thanks fellas.
