+1 for a dialed environment for potency. 1kw's, CO2 and good rich soil make for the goods, lol. I do mix my lighting spectrum in flower, though; two Hortilux HPS and one Hortilux regular MH in the middle. Seems like the ladies under the halide are always a hair frostier. :)

It depends on the manufacturer, really. I bought pots from a Sunlight Supply retailer and the 7's hold like 6.5 gallons of soil measured with a liquid gallon tea jug and I just finished transplants tonight into the bigger 10's and they took about 9/9.5 of the same gallon jug's worth of soil...

I used Smart Pots for one run and didn't see much of a difference to be honest. I've heard they are really good when using straight coco coir though.

The K comes from two places in super soil. #1 is the kelp meal that Aurora mixes in with the Roots soil. #2 is the K that is released over time from all the coco in the Roots soil. As coir breaks down, it releases K over time. That's why when using liquid mineral ferts in straight coco, you have...

haha, I like the Sublime parody. Awesome.

Well, hot damn. I'm glad I never bothered. And I'm double glad that I have my trusty set of bubble bags. :) Thanks for the explanation, it makes total sense.

Hey Sub, you had mentioned in another thread that you no longer endorse the Pig Wax method of extraction and that you were going to make a video to explain why, but you didn't go into any detail. I haven't seen you post a video on YT to expand on this, so I'm just kind of curious as to the why's...

I've grown out Jack the Ripper and the Flav. I can whole-heartedly give both of them a big-ass thumbs up. JTR is awesome sativa dom, especially the short pink lemonade pheno. The Flav is also incredible, much stonier though, where JTR is mostly heady speed weed, but also a great painkiller. Some...

No problem. Good luck.

I used uncooked super soil once and it burned the living shit out of my plants. I guess your mileage may vary, but I recommend always composting your concentrate for at least a month.

I turn the soil and add a little bit of water every day until it hits that perfect, fresh soil out of the bag consistency. Not too dry, not too wet. Like, squeeze a handful and if it clumps without dripping water, you've got the right moisture content. Also, watch the lid of the container you...

Haha, his name is George. Jorge Cervantes was his nom de plume before he decided it was okay to reveal his true identity last year. Hence losing the dreads and the hair dye.

They both have a gnarly stone to them, but I'd say the shorter ones are stonier and the taller ones are a bit more heady, but not by a lot. Very similar.

Well, the photo session never happened. :( Homeboy flaked out. Anyhow, It's time for an early smoke report. Buds have been curing in jars now for about 10 days after a nice, long slow dry and are smelling amazing. It all hovers somewhere in the neighborhood of a cross between spice, incense...

Aurora mixes the Roots soil with a significant amount of coco coir. As coco breaks down, it naturally releases K. Also, roots soil has kelp meal listed as an ingredient on the bag. So while super soil isn't amended with a high K fertilizer, there seems to be a sufficient amount to finish my...

If you aren't willing to wait for a nice amended soil to cook thoroughly, maybe you should just plant right in a some good bagged soil like Roots and just feed the soil with compost tea? Of course this is much more of a pain in the ass and much less consistent than super soil, but still a damn...

I can tell you from personal experience that thorough cooking of supersoil is mandatory. At least a month, I like to get a good six weeks at least, otherwise the transplants get hot feet.

It's too bad anxiety is a problem for you, because Jack the Ripper induces legendary munchies. But the buzz that builds up to munch time is very trippy and heady and has been know to give me a bit of paranoia if over medicated with.

Yep. Though I'm monocropping the Flav right now.

Yeah, after looking at those new pics I'd say they just have some hot feet. That happened to me the first time I used super soil because it got too dry for a bit while cooking and didn't finish composting all the way. Your plants really don't look all that bad. I bet they do fine.
