    Area 51 issues?

    I’ve been checking frequently and It hasn’t, I’m wondering if they just wait until the end of the week to cash them?

    Area 51 issues?

    Anyone else having an issue with delayed response from Area 51? I heard good things about them so I placed an order on 4/20 and sent them a check the next day. It should’ve been there by Monday but I haven’t heard anything and I’ve tried emailing them twice this week about it with no response...

    Favorite current breeders/strains right now!

    Hey y’all! It’s been a while since I’ve re-upped on seeds and I’m looking for some good genetics without doing hours of weeding through the forums to see what people are liking. I’ve been growing a lot of cannarado and in-house stuff, but I’m wondering if there’s any new up-and-coming breeders...

    Cannarado genetics

    2 of the strains I ran (Cannaradosi and Triple Whammy) threw straight males BOTH times I tried them... why I tried them twice, I don’t know. Huge bummer because I only grow a couple at a time so I’ve been completely out of flower since the beginning of the year because of this. They sent me a...

    Struggling with micronutrients

    I wondered about lockout but the soil test suggests the ph is in decent range and the detected levels of the micros is what concerns me. I topdress every 3 weeks to try to stay on top of feeding but maybe I’ll try your suggestion with just compost and 1/2 cup of the mix. I usually top dress with...

    Struggling with micronutrients

    Hey everyone, so I’m doing no-till in 30 gal pots and I get the soil tested about twice a year and I’m consistently coming up short with Fe, Zn, and Mn. Anyone have ideas on how I can increase these? Right now I’m topdressing 1 cup every three weeks of equal parts of the following: Neem Karanja...

    When to restart no-till pots

    I’d say they’ve had about 5 or 6 grows in each pot. I have dug down and find worms still crawling around so they’re still kicking. I use clover for cover crop. I topdress with equal parts alfalfa, kelp, fish meal, fish bone, crab meal, OSF, basalt, glacial rock dust, neem, Karanja, insect frass...

    When to restart no-till pots

    Hey all! I’ve had my no till 20 gallon pots going for a little over a year. The quality has been consistent and amazing, however I’m noticing my yields are tapering off (I’m averaging .6 gpw, yikes) I always add more pumice and rice hulls when I topdress to avoid compaction but I know I’m...

    Organic no till, probiotic, knf, jadam, vermicomposting, soil mixes, sips etc... Q & A

    I’m about to make a lacto serum and have some buttermilk leftover in the fridge. Do you guys think it will work in place of regular milk?

    Burn or deficiency?

    I haven’t added any cal mag this run because my soil test showed an excess, however the plants were extremely healthy up until a week ago. I’m in the process of retesting the soil.

    Burn or deficiency?

    This grow is going horribly wrong... and I’m horrible at differentiating deficiencies/toxicity. Both girls are green crack, started at the same time and watered/fed exactly the same. I do no-till in 15 gal pots and topdress every 3 weeks with the last topdress being kelp, ewc, and malted...

    Soil savvy results

    Jumping on the soil savvy bandwagon! I’ve never had my soil tested (it’s on its 3rd cycle of no till) so it was definitely necessary. I’m glad I did it! Look at these results. The calcium and magnesium are off the charts which is crazy seeing as I’m always showing what seems to be a mag...

    Vermicomposters Unite! Official Worm Farmers Thread

    Hey y’all, I have a tote of worm castings from this past winter that completely dried out. Should I just assume the bacteria have all died off and throw it in the compost bin? Or can I rehydrate and use it?

    Heavy metals in soil

    Here’s a cool article on how bone char can be used as a P source and to also lock out cadmium: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/23673832/
