Wow thats a whole bunch of good info on brewing tea and something I am now surely interested in and willing to try. My next question is after brewing the tea and you use it in the soil and/or as a foliar spray. is it a replacement for nutes? is this a organic form of fertilization. Or is this just a amedment to my current nute schedule. My local hydro shop convinced me to go with canna nutes and claims its much better than fox farms or anything else out there so far im not convienced its all its cracked up to be. In that article it claims to use this tea as a feeding every 3rd watering. So should i water with water then my canna then with tea then back to water or would that be over doing it.

The hydro shop is always going to have something to sell you.
Mix up some supersoil, give them tea every now and then, and then harvest. Its as simple as that. Everything the plants will ever need is there.
And having all the very basics covered of course, temps, humidity, soil moisture, light intensity, fresh air. I fink das et!

My concern reading that was the hermie issues but if it works then I may have to try that down the road. They usually show sex within a week of flipping to 12/12 though right?

Well ive got the soil they recomended as well. Its the Sunshine advanced rain forest blend.
My cabinet is well set up. lumatek lk400 ballast a/c hood 440 cfm fan in the upper chamber.
2 foot 4 bulb t-5 light in the lower chamber. Temps stay around 75 to 85.
Passive intake at the bottom and vented through the hood out the top with adjustable lights and shelves and all that. Now im just tring to get soil and nutes right.
In your opinion with a cabinet 3 foot wide and 1.5 feet deep how many plants do you think i can grow in there.
I see some small DWC tubs (10 gallon) with 6 or 8 net pots in it. I have been thinking about going that route if i can truley grow 6 plants in this small of a area.
But as of now ive got 4, 2 gallon smart pots, or 4, 2.5 gallon buckets i can use. Right now im just trying to get some bag seed through veg to flower to sex them. (although thinking about sexing them then sending them back to veg to see if i can pull off that little trick). Ive got some fem seeds i bought but trying to learn a little more before i use those they are expencive.
Once i use those i wanna learn about cloneing as well.
I love your thread ive learned alot and apprecieate your time and knowledge. I have no idea what im doing but learning with leaps and bounds everyday or at least try to.

You could cram as many plants as you like in there. I'd personally probably run the 4 - 2gal pots you got. Sounds like a good place to start to me.

Thats sounds about what i was planning to do. Thats why i bought them. The 2.5 gallon buckets i got for free but there always an option if needed. Once they out grow the little pots there in now im going to trans plant to some 1 gallon pots to keep them in till they reach a foot tall then move to flower. Then once there sexed and i figure out which ones are the girls im going to transplant into the 2 gallon smart pots till harvest. Does that sound like a decent plan or do you see any flaws in my itenerary.You could cram as many plants as you like in there. I'd personally probably run the 4 - 2gal pots you got.

"after brewing the tea and you use it in the soil and/or as a foliar spray?"
Yes.
"is it a replacement for nutes?"
No.
is this a organic form of fertilization?"
Yes.
"is this just a amedment to my current nute schedule?"
Using chemical based nutes and cides in a living organic medium is counter productive.
All of this info was in that nifty article just mentioned.
And to find that nifty article I literally just goooooooogled "benefits of using compost tea". It was one of the first links.
Im not trying to be mean or single you out, I see this all over riu everyday.
The miracle of doing your own research is you learn about other things you werent originally seeking out. You get much more in depth information than just the persons opinion you asked. Sifting through bullshit teaches you to form your own educated opinion.
Im not saying dont ask questions, just put forth at least minimal effort to inform and educate yourself.
This will take you to almost any information to answer almost any question you could ever possibly think of.

Like jig said, you can cram plants in there. In dwc I would only put two at most, soil maybe 3 of the 2.5 gallon.. Would 4 of those fit?

Its all good and learning from someone whos done this is the best chance someone like me who has no clue as to what there doing to learn and do it right.

I have been doing lots of research trust me to the point its sometimes confusing. As far as getting the persons opinion well If i wanted to learn how to play basketball i think it would be smarter to ask Lebron james not my little cousin. (go to the pros and ive seen your work you seem to be more than qualified). You can sift thought info and point out whats crap and what works people like myself who have no clue dont have your experience nor have the ability to do so.
And all though there is alot to learn from sifting through bullshit no doubt, but If your as new as i am you dont know what bull shit and whats good info. (thats why i go to the pros)
Im not saying dont ask questions, just put forth at least minimal effort to inform and educate yourself. Trust me i have.
This will take you to almost any information to answer almost any question you could ever possibly think of. But you dont know how reliable the answers are. On a site like this you can check out someones journals and know how good they are then take there advise cause they know what there doing.
I dont mean to be a pain but honestly i would rather learn from somone who knows what there doing rather than listen to so ass who thinks he does but actually has no clue.

Yea ive done alot of reseach and think ive created a nice little set up. It runs very well and keeps temps at bay pretty well. As far as the buckets go I think only 3 will fit side by side. The 2.5 gallon pots are exactly 12 wide so 3 will just barely fit side by side. The soft pots i could easily put 8 pots but i think that would over crowed the plants. so 4 will probably be all that will fit with out over crowding. Im going to keep going with soil till the bag i have runs out and if I have not got it figured out by then I may be going to hydro to give it a shot. stealth hydro has a 6 cup set up that would be easy to create. But im not giving up on soil yet cause im still learning. Just working with people like you will help me cut down on the learning curv.Looks like a sweet lil cab
THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP...

I spend allot of time reading articles away from cannabis forums, that gets allot of the bs out of the way right off the bat. You will never find any of the immature bullshit on most gardening forums. Like that link I posted, completely none mj related but extremely informative.
The thing is you dont have to track down lebron and ask what magical techniques he uses to be so good. He surly didnt track down jordan for advice. Its all about repetition and proper mechanics. The basics, and spending day after day sun up to sun down shooting hoops... Eating, sleeping, breathing, and shitting basketball. You gotta be in it to win it.
And like you say your doing crazy amounts of reading day in and day out,,, Im still on that shit too and its been ten years. Same ambition since day 1.
Just trying to say, the answer to most of your questions are out there a million times over, but what the hell I'll make it a million and one.

Jeezus dude. I'm going to have a hard time competing with your seedling pr0n.
edit: I forgot to ask you if you saw the part on the mainline thread (or was it just the Nugbucket's Lab) where KushKing42 was talking about teas? He and Nugs were working out some parts of Nugs' tea... he was saying that you shouldn't put Humics in, and I think he was saying to only use guanos as a top feed, not as part of the tea. If not I'll go back and try to find it... I feel like I even grabbed some screen captures of it. I might not get to it tonight-- baby is fussing and I need to go attend. Some interesting points from somebody who really knows his stuff tho. Have a good one brosef.

As promised, very late and I'm still not done yet. I'm a novice trimmer and it's taking me very long to chop down this plant. Also, I found out I'm a lazy tirmmer too lol. Here's the pics though, again sorry about lighting, etc. I'm a little self conscious about my photos lol.
SO this XJ-13 showed me some of her dark side, some purps at the end.
You're my inspiration, whodat. The 4400w weeden was (and still is ) my dream grow. Canopy management, boss, plant health boss, all I need to do is follow your footstpes and I'm golden. Thank YOU, sir.

Nice response But I would rather listen to someone who knows exactly what there doing. According to your day 14 pics you gotta pretty good hold on the situation.

Haha Im very flattered, thank you.... but Im just some dude trying to grow nice plants thats all.
Dank ass nugs by the way! looks great.
Take it or leave it but Iv already expressed myself on this subject.... This is someone with more experienced telling you how it is and you wont see it. You are better off doing your own research,,, you will learn more, ultimately becoming a better grower.
The only reason Im about to type this is to get it off of my chest,,, like I said, I already spoke my piece.
This is exactly what happened.
Someone asked a series of questions about compost tea.
I not only find an in depth informative article on the subject but I copy and paste the entire thing on my journal for said person to read. Didnt even have to go through the trouble to click on a link.
All previous questions were answered in the article,,, and some.
Same person asks another series of questions that were just answered in the very article posted if they even bothered to read it.
If I were leading a horse to water it would have drowned.
Your not lying donny! Im guessing your talking about something crossed with ?pthose be some fat conker indie leaves for seedlings
