    What size pots for veg and then for bloom, kinda confused.

    I tried five girls per 1kw light in 7 gallons and they crowded each other out after stretch and yield suffered. I did better on yield with four plants than five per 1kw. Just food for thought. And if you haven't bought containers yet, I can promise you that you won't be disappointed if you go...

    Does Marijuana Make You Stupid? **Article from Wired Magazine**

    Believe it or not, cocaine and methamphetamine are both Schedule 2. What a fucked up world we live in, eh?

    What size pots for veg and then for bloom, kinda confused.

    If you're gonna finish in any container smaller than 7 gallons, you won't be able to use super soil as a just-add-water recipe. You're going to have to give liquid feed, and if you're going to that trouble, why even use super soil anyway? The whole point of using super soil is for simplicity. In...

    Dear subcool, what kind of powdered cal mag should i use?? thanks

    I can tell you from personal experience that super soil cooked for six weeks w/ 1 cup dolomite per cubic foot + R/O water = HORRIBLE cal/mag deficiency. The dolomite for sure does not provide adequate calcium and magnesium unless it is allowed to break down over a much longer period of time. R/O...

    Dear subcool, what kind of powdered cal mag should i use?? thanks

    Is your tap water fucked? Why are you using r/o anyway?

    Dear subcool, what kind of powdered cal mag should i use?? thanks

    It's prilled for worker safety, less dust exposure. Dolomite should be used as a pH buffer and soil sweetener, not as a readily available source of Ca or Mg.

    Dear subcool, what kind of powdered cal mag should i use?? thanks

    The lime doesn't break down quickly enough to provide ample calcium and magnesium. You will definitely need to supplement if you are using straight r/o water. Also, don't use any Cal Mag supplement with calcium nitrate in it, like Botanicare or Advanced or Techniflora. Supersoil is very high in...

    Dear subcool, what kind of powdered cal mag should i use?? thanks

    Another thumbs up here for the GO CaMg+. I use tap water that has plenty of calcium and magnesium anyway, but every few waterings I mix up a dose of this stuff for the girls and they love it. Keeps 'em nice and green, plus it has molasses in it and revs up the micro herd.

    How long do you let super soil sit after mixing?

    Doesn't need to be done in the sun. I cook mine in my basement. The composting process generates plenty of heat on its own.

    First JTR run, I have questions.

    The latest I ever took them was 65 days and that was about 20% amber for the taller girls and around 30% for the pink lemonade. I always go by trichomes, because days of flowering can vary based on feeding, CO2, etc. They did start throwing a few nanners here and there after around day 60, but I...

    hey sub need advice for a sick loved one

    Jack the Ripper is hands-down the most effective pain relief variety of herb I've ever had. It's a very special plant. Works better than any pure Indica ever could. The Pink Lemonade pheno is best for this. Good luck.

    Super Soil ingredients ?'s

    That's the stuff. Dolomite has a 2:1 Ca:Mg ratio.

    First JTR run, I have questions.

    Other than how cool looking the trifoliate was, nothing else changed. No loss in yield or potency, so I was okay with it. Funny how certain traits change though.

    Super Soil ingredients ?'s

    Lowes sells dolomite lime where I live. I assume they would elsewhere. It's sold as a soil sweetener, but it will say on the bag if it's dolo or hydrated. Also, get pulverized if you can, pelletized is crap.

    Organic Soil Taste vs Hydro Taste

    Hey sub, I remember reading something you wrote about not liking Schrom because it was "angry weed" or something like that. Could you go in depth about this?

    2 quick questions for subcool bout worm castings and "cOOking" ?

    My super soil puts off serious heat the first two weeks it composts. There's no need for sunlight. I do it in the basement in big ass rubbermaid tubs. Just make sure you don't get it too wet or the bacteria could go anaerobic on you and go bad. Try to get it to that just-out-of-the-bag perfect...

    First JTR run, I have questions.

    I've grown out JTR and loved it. Here's what I can tell you: -Aside from the Pink Lemonade pheno, all the plants put on I would say 60% of their weight during weeks 6-8. I remember thinking the same thing, the stretchier phenos were real sparse until day 45-ish. Then they just packed it on like...
