I plan on doing a side guerilla grow but i want to mess around witih organics and also collect all the material to reduce any costs. I am new to this and right now my only idea is to go to the beach and collect seaweed, dry it, then grind it into meal and mix it with FF soil. will this be enough for veg? wut else can i collect for veg and flower? + rep for awnsers

I really doubt most areas would have enough "findable" nutrients to give the plants everything they need. I mean, it's a weed so it'll grow but I wouldn't expect them to be that close to their best. If you were to get some composts going, you could create your own organic fertilizers and use stuff you find to put into them, but they'll need some time to work over the stuff.

Budsmoker187, The FF soil you have is pretty well rounded stuff. Addings some extra perlite and worm castings to it will up it's value. $ 4 for a bag of perlite at wally world. Worm castings can be done easily at home, here's a link :

they call them black gold for a reason. Also check in the local paper for people selling rabbits, you can usually pick up rabbit manure for next to nothing or free from these people. I add it to my compost piles, along with oak leaves, and grass clipping from mowing the lawn.

Go around and ask for gass clippings from the lawn and leafs durring fall. I ask the highway ppl for the leaves and they where happy to give them to me. Add both together and next spring you will have a good start on your organic materials. It will also be loaded with worm casting too.
