Hey Jacs. I'm in London. if you know of any good outdoor strains for our climate let me know.

If anyone has any good strain recommendations or happens to have acclimatized genetics for either northern or southern Ontario, PM me, thank you.

Alright Qwiso That's a big help, thanks for that response. I was just starting to get brainstorming on a guerilla grow technique where potted plants are placed in a swamp, and the mix(usually promix) draws up the moisture as the plant needs it. This sounded like a huge hassle of a way to...

Good to hear that it works for you. When I read about outdoor grows it seems watering is a big challenge. You live in Texas, which I imagine is really dry throughout the summer, how do you overcome drought? am I correct to think that watering is going to be the single biggest challenge...

How unlikely is it to simply stick a plant in the ground, and come back 5 months later to harvest? I live in Southern Ontario Canada. The Summers here are humid and warm/hot. Many breezy hot sunny days, and many really strong/short thunderstorms. What I want to do is find a very...

ok... I am going to try to read this but for future reference... Paragraphs! ! ! ahhhhhhh!

You need to understand that the world "soil" is used very loosely. A product such as Promix is not "soil" in the same sense that what is on the ground in you backyard is "soil". Promix is a blend of different things but primarily(probably about 80%) it is peat moss. Peat moss is not what...

How do you guys feed your worms? I mixed up my half rotten foods scraps up with some shredded paper, just mixing and churning and squeezing everything together with my hands. Used enough shredded paper to achieve roughly a damp soil level of moisture, then simply dumped that into the bin on...

Kronicool- They look like earth worms

Glad to hear you are doing that and it's working. I don't know that I see the benefit of "no till" (other than if you are using massive pots or beds)but I definitely intend to recycle my soil once I get it going. I guess you have to get a feel for what the soil needs added back so that you...

Trial and error will be the only way to really dial in what will work best. I understand that the worms will break things down to make them more available. There is definitely a lot of guesswork involved in organic growing. I think it's probably a good idea to start with a solid...

I have a simple question for everyone. Any anetdotal experiences or experiments would be good to hear about. I'm wondering if running organic fertilizers(neem meal, blood meal, bat guano etc.) through a vermicomposter will make the nutrients faster release(thus more likely to cause burn), or...

Yea that's awesome. There are a lot of indoor worm composters on the net but you usually don't see anyone adding all of these amendments directly into the bin. It seems to me that it makes the most sense, especially if you are planning to add them eventually. Why not let all those...

That is a really interesting hybrid method of growing you have there! If the soil in the pot is extra hot, how do you get the young vegging plants to grow down through the hot soil without burning? I understand once those roots hit the water below the burning is no longer an issue, but how...

DankSwag- That looks like it's coming along really nicely. How much worms did you start off with? How long did it take you to get to this phase? I don't see any identifiable bedding material in there; what are you using as bedding?

I'm just starting up a worm bin, only about a pound of worms so far. Has anyone tried using coco peat solely as the bedding material? I imagine it would work really well. I wonder if it breaks down completely into humus or remains fibrous. Also you can add rock powders directly to the...

Looking for any opinions on this recipe, if there is anything I should take note of or change. I'm planning to do 4 plants in 20 gallons of soil mix each, under a single 1000 watt HPS. I'm trying to work out a water only recipe from start to finish. I'm a little worried this may not be...

perhaps mix two batches? one for veg one for flower.

Hey there HomeBrewer, glad to see you are still active. I took a couples years break from growing, but I'm thinking of ordering up some AK-47 seeds from SS. The plan is to grow 4 plants under a 1000w. Everything about AK-47 sounds great, good aroma, good yield, consistent reliable genetics...
