Hey getaway hows it going, glad to see things are moving along nicely with your babies! what sort of fert do you give to your clones? I have heard just a little bit of superthrive after they are cloned until they grow roots and use up the available food in their own leaves, and then a diluted...

hey Joe, what sort of light were they getting during the day?

This makes me sad, I have such high hopes but it's tough to combat just that many trees. I don't mind cutting some down, even a lot but cant make it too obv from above like I said. argh

hell even an airsoft will make em think twice

Best of luck man, I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for ya FL green thumbs. Yo crazey sneak on over to my thread if ya don't mind... let's chat

I hear you, I have also read some additives will make your soil smell so nice, especially when its first planted and all exposed, and end up attracting critters who come around and paw up your dirt looking for the source of those smells. So gotta be careful of that I think. Just keep your eyes...

Is stretching a bad thing? I am looking to grow some giants, that's the goal. I feel that a big factor in a lot of peoples success to grow giants is the amount of direct sun, sometimes upwards of 12 hours. I just don't have that luxury, way too many trees. I plan on continuing to cut the...

Yeah, I'd be curious about this too, they look great. Very healthy. I would think that if the clones and sprouts were under 24hrs light while inside, that at some point they would need to be scaled back to 18 or something before they go outside so they don't get shocked when all of a sudden...

This info is gold jack, I really appreciate it... I was planning on mixing in the compost and letting it sit. Everything I have read has recommended this, I am trying to think of a good spot to let my soil mixture age before I use it. Does it matter if its in the sun or not? Will it being in the...

thanks for the reply, I am interested to hear what people have to say as far as their experiences and thoughts are on the subject... were you growing straight from seeds underneath the pines? I have some clones and seedlings vegging now and have for awhile so they will be good size when they are...

Very informative Jack, I have to pick up a copy of that book. but lets say I go with a more economic soil solution like promix. from what i can gather promix doesn't come with any ferts in it. Do all soils come with colonies of microbes living in it already? sorry if I am way off base here, just...

Hey, So I have access to quite a bit of space but the problem is that it's very heavily forested. Nearly everywhere I am scouting and clearing has trees on all sides that , besides the few hours when the sun is at it's highest point and shining directly down, will block a lot of the light. These...

Jack thanks for laying it out like that, very concise ... I have access to some composted horse manure, I will dig under the pile and get down at the ground level, compost. This soil is very black and there are no chunks in it. There is a little sawdust in it. My plan was to cut this black...

I do have a bunch of barbed wire sitting around from removing it from my property which used to have cattle...that way I could have protected ladies AND free deer jerky, I don't even think that's against the law as it's not really 'hunting' =)

Lol, and here Bambi was thinking it'd get a nice lunch of fresh new green growth...SURPRISE All in all not a bad idea though : )

looks moist in those picture haha, thats good though no body will want to walk through that sht so don't have to worry as much. Looks great , i'll have tot ry the lime this year and look into slug dope.do u end up fencing in the plants when they get larger to deter deer and other animals from...

i read that even composted manure can make your soil more acidic than it should be, and what people normally say is to add lime to bring the ph Up but the part that I read that alarmed me is that basically they said the composted manure should sit for atleast a month before checking PH levels...

This is beyond impressive and I am most definitely going to follow this the way through. Best of luck in all aspects, what do you use to repel SLUGS and other bugs that will eat your beautiful crops up? mine got devastated a few years back when slugs went to town on them. I've tried the copper...

hey nice thread, i am really curious as to what mixes people are using. in regards to the above mix, are all of these necessary? I am trying to come up with an organic mix that will support my ladies all season. I have access to composted horse manure and after reading in the forums this...

Thanks for the reply, how much impact will water temperature have on the development of the plant and it's roots? I don't have a water heater in place and it still gets cold here, is 55-60F too cold of water? Also I have never used a rooting hormone before, should I re-dip the stems in the...
