    Mountain "wisdom"

    As ever, I must reconcile my backwoods secret arts with actual science. As such, I was wondering what you fine folks thought of "the juice", a very simple tea I was taught to use to "wake up" tilled soil-- all measurements per gallon Half cup kelp meal 1 tbsp animal feed molasses A capful of...

    EM1 vs other innoculants

    EM1 seems to be a pretty common go-to for this board, but I was wondering if anybody was familiar with some of the other bacterial innoculants around... I have a sample of some stuff called Photosynthesis Plus by Microbe Life Hydro, been sitting since last year (still within shelf life), but...

    Green dragon

    So, I've never tried to make this, doesn't seem difficult.... Think it's a better idea to use good bud, or good hash?

    Pedantic SAR question

    I read a lot of stuff regarding SAR in plants, and I was wondering if I had misapprehended something that I learned in a botany class-- I learned that SAR is an immune response having to do with infectious pathogens, and isn't technically in operation against pests, only the pathogens they...

    Can't identify these eggs

    Found some hemipteran bug (some froghopper, I think) hanging out in the same area as these eggs, might be related? Eggs are suspended from the leaf by a thread or something, doesn't come through in the photo because I had to lift the leaf for the photo.

    Wait, so Azamax is basically neem?

    I was chatting with some folks about pests the other day, and one started raving about Azamax as the best way to knock down and keep away mites. His neighbor scoffed and said that it's just synthetic neem oil... Upon personal investigation, I discovered that it is indeed derived from neem, but...

    Got 'em early this year...

    Well, I can do all the pre-planning preventative measures I want, but it seems like my russet mite is quite permanent.... The problem with my area is there's literally so many people growing, control of infestations permanently has become entirely impossible. At least I caught it early in veg...

    The kelps....

    There's many species of kelp, are there any differences between them, nutrition-wise? I noticed my kelp meal bag doesn't specify, and folks seem to have a real hard-on for nodosum.... My only real concern is that kelps from the Pacific might have taken in radioactive isotopes from Fukushima...

    About this Hanna ppm gauge...

    I'm not a noob per se, just with this meter. I've never used one of these, the instructions say the probe is supposed to be stored in some sort of fluid, but when my boss handed it to me and said i could use it, it was not stored so. No cap, either. Or calibration solutions. How badly is this...

    TF happened here

    Seedlings, this one is either a local Goo or (less likely) a Cindy cross... I mixed up the seeds. This twisting is occurring on both strains, but this is the plant that got it worst. My other strains/plants do not have this at all. New growth curling occurred the day after a rainstorm, so I...
