That soil test is 100% 2 year rabbit manure only? What problems are you having with your compost, I was always under the impression you can't do composting wrong, just make sure not to add too much of anything, keep it balanced and let it fully compost. I have a worm bin where I add Guinea droppings and compost. Then I use those castings at 20% of all my soil mixes. Getting good results so far. Anyways what did you learn and will do differently?

High Phosphorus has always been the problem for me... When I get my soil test results, they always tell me to limit manure and compost. I finally took their advice and I started to use more peat moss. I was making leaf compost to get away from peat, but it has not really worked out for me yet. I started a new compost last October with pure leaves and I will have that tested.

The only thing that I added to the rabbit manure was precharged biochar and Ph buffer like OSF, eggshell, and dolomite lime...

Here I will let you in on the horror. This is what excess phosphorus looks like, it causes "iron chlorosis" from locking out iron and trace minerals. Before, I thought that this was a N problem, but the bleaching is from excess P... I am basically starting over, but I do have enough smoke on reserve lol.

No laughing, Karma is a bitch... Just kidding, things are looking awful at the moment but I really think that I learned a lot. Next round is going to be better than ever!!!

Not laughing, sorry you’re going through this, but I’m sure I’m not the only well-intended ROLS grower learning from your experiences with overly composted soil. But since you mentioned karma... I think you’re probably good. Not everyone’s willing to post that soorryass pic, but anyone who sees it learns something before filingit away. So thanks.

I’m 3 years and maybe 12 runs into my current soil, and wondering if my ALWAYS PURPLE PETIOLES on two Blueberry Hashplants and a SSDD as well as another plant indicates something? Yields are good but could things be better? Dunno but I'm getting a soil test soon.

Yeah, I felt like a fool for posting it but I was hoping that it would help someone. Also, there are different types of tests. If you go to your local extension office, be sure to mention that you are dealing with a "light weight medium". Nobody told me , but @rikdabrick got me squared away... Here is a copy and paste from one of the labs that I use.

Logan Labs uses a 2-gram soil scoop for the standard analysis package, as well as nitrate and ammonium and all extra parameters that are provided on our standard soil report.

When using this scoop to sample a soilless medium, the result will be lighter than two grams. This will cause the concentration of nutrients in your sample to be underestimated.

I have a feeling that submitting composted manure for a “soil test” may skew the results. Seems soil tests are more for a mix or garden or lawn soil.

My ASS are very tiny and are slow growers. Got this pack from Attitude a month ago. 2 weeks in and they are like 3 inches tall.

What size pots do ya'll flower in (indoor growers)? I'm debating on whether or not I want to flip all of my plants at the same time, younger and smaller, or wait til they're a bit older, cull a few out, and veg them larger.

Looking for some males, so when I see sex i'm thinking take the best one of each, and isolate them in a different tent. then harvest the pollin via q-tips and paint it on some of the other three.

sort of thinking out loud on this. I've never grown this many regs before. starting to realize I'm going to need more resources than previous.

I like to pheno hunt in 3 gals and keepers are in 5-10 gals depending on room in the tent. A friend and I chucked with a space monkey male in the way you described with qtips and we didn’t get enough seeds out of it. Going to try an open pollenation next go around.

Yes Im glad you posted that, makes me feel a little better about my failures, as they have not been nearly as bad so far. Fingers crossed as Im just getting into organics and ROLS.

I think its important to just not over do any one ingredient. If its balanced you should be ok. The NPK of compost, and manures from herbivores are all pretty balanced.

Here is my current mix

PER CUBIC FOOT (8 LOOSE FILLED GALLONS) - Cook at least for 1 week

[] 1 Cup Bonemeal
[]1/2 Cup Dehydrated Molasses
[]1/2 Cup Kelp
[]1/2 Cup Alfalfa
[]1/2 Cup Blood meal
[]1/2 Cup Glacial Rock Dust
[]1/3 Cup Oyster Shell
[]1/3 Cup Dolomite Lime
[]1/3 Cup Gypsum
[]1/4 Cup Azomite
[]1/4 Cup Basalt

40% PEAT
40% PERLITE
20% EWC

My worm bin, consists of 30% Leaves/Stems (cannabis),25% compost, 25% Guinea Droppings, 15% Shredded papper, 5% Coffee Grinds

After a couple of runs, I will do a soil test to see what I do not need to re-ammend for awhile that is in extreme excess.

Sorry, not trying to hijack bodhi thread, back to work everyone ;0 , Mustang maybe start a thread in the organics section and we can all work through this with you

I would start a new thread, but I am planting some blackberry bushes today... If you start a thread, I will gladly stop by.
What I have learned is that you only need P for the initial mix and leave out the P when you re-amend, the bone meal. Azomite is very high in aluminum, double down on the basalt, glacial, and OSF and skip azomite. You need to prepare your peat before you mix it, make a homemade "ProMix" and you will avoid Ph problems. It has been taking my peat just over a month to raise the Ph, adding more OSF did not help either... I'm trying to keep it simple, limit your P and prepare your peat before hand. On your list, glacial rock dust and everything below it can be use to make your "Homemade ProMix"...

Sorry, I am finished clogging this thread now...

Huh, I never thought not enough seeds would be an issue. How many did you get? I'd be happy with a dozen or so, enough to pop another round on. I just grow for myself.

Yeah have found 5 seeds in one plant solos stash x sour power og and a handful of others. Got more bud to go through so may find some more but I was hoping for hundreds for a large pheno hunt later.
