Well I have half of my plants going into the ground, but where I'm putting buckets the soil sucks so I'm thinking if I let it use the 6 gallons of dirt to get big then it can make its way into the crappy stuff. You know? But, I might just dig a hole too, it's tough to haul the dirt.

So this is what I've got - let me know if I'm overdoing it cause I don't wanna screw up. -Composted Horse/Chicken manure. So far I've ordered 4 50 pound bags but might get more -Peat Moss -Blood Meal -Bone Meal -Guano -Myco -Azomite -Humic Acid -Perlite -Vermiculite -Dolomite Lime Is this mix...

I'm starting my seeds now and putting them in their final homes around mid-may. I like em to have 5leaf sets before they go out. Definitely have to make sure they're acclimated to the sun though or else they can be shocked and such. I had one last year that didn't seem to grow for weeks after a...

I used plant tone last year and it made it seem like a very good soil. Smelled like something that I would want to be in if I were a plant. I think ill be adding the same this year - along with mycorrhizae and azomite and all that stuff. What's usually in your soil mix?

Most definitely. I'm putting up chicken wire and all that jazz. Fox urine and whatnot and egg shells and soap and hair. I'm mainly concerned with percentages and ratios of the soil mix itself.

I second this. Would I have to add bone and blood meal and such in addition to all this? I don't want to add too much of anything and have it be too concentrated or anything. Ya know?

Hahah well at least you know now and dont walk into Home Depot with 10 bucks and check out 10 bags

I think you just get 1 dollar off each bag

So,the free horse manure and the $5 bags of compost could potentially make up the majority of my mix? I plan on adding native soil and worm castings and such along with perlite and all the proper amendments. I'm just curious what a good ratio would be

If theres no males present they can't be pollinated. They're most certainly not males. Maybe that pheno has weird looking bud formations? Or maybe someone in your area let a male grow to maturity and pollen somehow made it to your plants.

How does one tell if something is composted well?

yes very much so thank you.

So, there's this farm near my house that offers any amount of FREE composted horse manure. Obviously since it's free I'm biased toward getting it. However, another farm is offering composted cow manure cheap. Then there's another farm offering compost really cheap...

So last year was painfully tremulous. Plants stolen on multiple occasions, stole them back, hurricane, bad partners.....I laughed, I cried, but, I learned more than I could ever have expected. This year will be a bit different. Whittled the crew down to a much smaller number, more GREAT spots...

You think? i'm kindof seeing some white hairs. Only time will tell but ill get more pictures
