    do my leaves look ok ?

    Oh, and fabric pots..rootpouch.com Or roots organics has their own brand of felt pots now too. I use Gro Pots because they are felt and have handles as well. The benefits of using fabric pots are that the roots will grow out through the fabric instead of circling the pot, so they air prune...

    do my leaves look ok ?

    I was kinda right, I thought it was heat stress at first...but it's heat and lack of water. But that's all good stuff man, just means you're doing everything right. It means you've got great big roots and a big thirsty plant. 50% humidity isn't too high for flowering unless you are in an area...

    First shot using teas from worm compost high in P and K for BLOOM BOOSTER side/side

    Ok, so I read through the last page again and now I understand my confusion about the leachate. I was using it hoping for some PK, not for microbial life. That's why I put another scoop of worm compost in as well....but it's not counter-productive is it? Are you guys saying it will kill off the...

    First shot using teas from worm compost high in P and K for BLOOM BOOSTER side/side

    Oh, I forgot to mention AzaMax is plant-based and OMRI. If you haven't tried it yet I think it's right up your alley, it's awesome stuff. Apparently Azatrol is the same thing as well, but cheaper. They're both Azadirachtin baseds, which is supposedly the main component in Neem oil that gets the...

    First shot using teas from worm compost high in P and K for BLOOM BOOSTER side/side

    My bad, I forgot to even answer your question. I use AzaMax mostly to be honest. We use a wash my wife makes too sometimes for veg, but I use AzaMax as a foliar every 10 days or so till flower, and as a soil drench 3 times while vegging. And I use the EndAll concentrated insect killer, so I can...

    First shot using teas from worm compost high in P and K for BLOOM BOOSTER side/side

    Set up sounds nice. I'm still working on mine, I've gotta finish the new mom/cloner in the veg room and build one more flowering room. We don't flower with all the space though, we use half of it to juice leaves. I don't use any extra UV though. Have you tried the dual arc bulbs? I need to get...

    do my leaves look ok ?

    The only way I'd recommend replanting is if you can do it extremely gently. If you don't think you can, then don't do it. I've replanted midflower before without any stress or problems, but I'm gentler with the plants then any other gardener I've ever seen. I would try this watering technique...

    First shot using teas from worm compost high in P and K for BLOOM BOOSTER side/side

    So you don't use it at all, you just dump it basically? And if I want to use it you're saying I should pour it right onto the soil instead? Ah ok gotcha. I'm using Humboldt Natural Bloom right now on the rest of the plants, but I want to get away from using rock phosphate all together as it's...

    First shot using teas from worm compost high in P and K for BLOOM BOOSTER side/side

    Hey Poly. Pest control for the plants or for the worm bins? I haven't had any problems with the worm bins. I had some mites in it for a months a couple months ago, but they cleared up on there own, I think I needed more carbon in it or something. And by complete organics do you mean trying not...

    Oh...if only I was keeping this worm-composter outside haha. It's going in the basement. :] Yea I don't miss having an apartment. I like having my own yard, even if it's not very big. And I feel privileged in this day and age to have room to grow my own food. But yea I think this is gonna be...

    do my leaves look ok ?

    Oh, duh, you just said you've been having to water everyday. To be honest, you might need to replant..or if you don't, you should water them good and then come back a couple hours later and give them a little more. The heat may be drying the pots out as well, what's the humidity in the room and...

    I knew what you meant by droopy, I saw it in the third pic ;-) They're doing something like this http://forum.grasscity.com/sick-plants-problems/389562-dark-leaves-curling-downwards-help.html Did you say you have been having to water them every day? If that's the case then either the roots at...

    Okily dokily Weed Neighbors! :lol: The plants are looking good, all healthy. And I've got a pretty even canopy, although I might have to prop up a couple of the OGs out the side that didn't grow as tall. I used to use upside down pots for this, but now I'm starting to think that used to be part...

    do my leaves look ok ?

    Lol, I did tell you remember..RAIN WATER lol. ;-) It's free, it's easy, and it's got free nutrients in it!!! Lol. I was actually using about 60 gallons of Reverse Osmosis water a week until I started using rain water. It's crazy. And I can't believe people use a hose to water their outdoor...

    Can I switch from synthetics to organic

    Yea, he'd just have to get the plant into some soil or at least get 20% worm castings in there or something. But yea, the guano could pick up where the synthetics leave off as long as he made the grow medium suitable for organics.

    do my leaves look ok ?

    If you get an even canopy you don't ever have to untie the LSTs. Just remember, however you decide to grow, that if you grow hydro (no soil) you can expect good yields and potency, but not as good of taste. It will be more commercial if that makes sense. Plus you can't eat it or juice it if...

    Can I switch from synthetics to organic

    I didn't say he wouldn't yield well because of organics. I only said that he wouldn't yield well switching to organics from synthetics mid-flower in a 50/50 coco/perlite medium. My garden is pretty much certified organic, and I yield well without using guanos or any animal products for that...

    1st timer

    Get a myco product. Then make sure you have the right NPK amounts in your soil if you're just going to feed with water or compost teas. Supersoil is good for this. If you are using more of a soilless medium where you are providing the nutrients constantly, General organics is a good line, Bio...

    Can I switch from synthetics to organic

    Actually I'm gonna go ahead and say no. Not if you're concerned at all with yield anyways. Not if you're already in flower with a mix of 50/50 coco perlite. You'd have to add a lot of worm castings or compost or potting soil or something...I mean sure, you can do it, but you'd have a terrible...

    Greensand

    It's good to use if you re-use some of your soil as well, as it's slow to break down. It can only be used in your mix, it's not for teas or anything like that. It will also weigh down your mix as well. I use a little in my mix mostly just to keep the soil a little heavier when the pots are...
