general organics rocks!!!!

I mean no offense, but the soybean meal in the Bio Root is kind of proof I think lol. I agree with what you're trying to say, but I don't think the comparison is fair because technically General Hydroponics didn't find soybean meal in the forest, eat it, digest it, and poop it out.

Does this mean the soybean meal in Roots Organics' soil is gmo??? It would be a huge kick in the nuts to know I've been growing in Roundup Ready soybeans

Hope someone can help. Anyone use GO with RO water? My ph goes to 5.0 or lower when I mix up nutes. Should I ph up it up to 6.5 or is this killing the bennies? My tap water is over 400 ppm complete crap which is why I have an RO system. I'm afraid of lockout pouring 5.0 solution on my girls. Thanks for any help.

Well bro here is what I got going using nothing but great soil, No Nuts ever,, only great soil,, here is few pics of a 100 percent ORG grow, Gram a watt, + taste so sweet nothing like club meds..


Check out just one of my side branches,,, see what I mean.. also no flush required !!!!

Age Old, GO-Biothrive and Medi-one nutrients is what I use. And I never had problems with these nutrients lines.

Going to try a good super soil mix only, with compost teas. DelQ plants look great...

i used to use age old, but like one said earlier, they only need to be 50% organic to put organic on the bottle. i'm no longer using the age old as they make no claims anywhere on the bottle or the site to how organic they actually are. it's just a name.

i've been making the switch to living organic soil, and though it takes time, the more i eliminate products i used to use, the better my final product has become in flavor. i've got a veg room full of plants i'll be using vegamatrix on until my soil is done cooking that i'm mixing up. so it's gonna be a bit before i see the full result. the vegamatrix is about the cleanest stuff you can get in a bottle nowadays, and it doesn't kill microlife. so i'll be using that on about a dozen plants or so, and after that i should be full on recyclable living organic soil.

good luck with the super soil and do your research on the ingredients you choose to put in it before you buy. there's a lot of people with good info on this site. i guarantee you'll never go back to bottles after you do the super soil

well after all the reading i've been doing on here from other members, the CEC of canadian sphagnum peat moss is better than that of coco coir. So i've been doing all my mixes with peat so far. not to mention that the 4cf bales of peat are very low cost, not that coco is expensive. i am thinking about trying a coco mix out though, or even going 1/2 and 1/2. just can't beat the peat moss with the dormant microbe life in it already, you know?

the more organic i've been going the less likely i am to endorse any product from fox farm. looking at the kangaroots description, while they don't actually list the ingredients on the site but anyway, that product is nothing you couldn't accomplish with some earth worm castings, kelp meal, and black strap molasses for pennies a 4 gallon batch rather than buying a bottle of premade gunk. just get an air pump and some weighted air stones and bubble the ingredients i mentioned for 24-48 hrs. strain, and voila! you made your own kangaroots mix. problem solved.

THIS IS IMPORTANT: if you're using a super soil you aren't going to need to make this tea but 2-3 times for each cycle. once in veg, once at beginning of flower, and once in middle of flower, and really the middle of flower is likely not necessary. THE SOIL is taking care of the plant in super soil; YOU actually have to do very little but keep the soil moisture content correct with just plain ol' rain or RO water. the plant will take what she wants when she wants it.

as for the ingredients to your mix, hey that's up for you to decide. if you want to use guanos and manures just make sure you know the proper way to use them, and when they're used properly they work. they can make you sick breathin in guano dust, or bacteria from manures contaminating your hands and shit, and then you go eat something with your hands and boom, now you're sick to your stomach. it can happen. just exercise caution. I'm staying away from them for now, but to each his own.

Thanks, Bro some good info...

I think they may have changed their formula because I'm not seeing soybean in the Bio Root that I have. Ingredient list shows cottonseed meal, molasses, phosphoric acid, plant protein, hydrolysate, potassium sulfate, rock phosphate and sea kelp. I suppose the cottonseed could be GMO though?

old thread give it up

It’s not old till the old lady sings

Never considered the entire GMO thing with respect to the soybeans in that item. I've had extraordinary fortunes with the line this develop and hadn't consumed a solitary plant while encouraging pretty intensely. Still got a touch of that line left and I'm not anticipating running it again as I've quite recently transplanted 6 clones into some Empire Builder so we'll perceive how that goes. Extraordinary string btw.

Been using GO with my tomatoes and chili plants as well as houseplants, but didn't get good results. Same with BioBizz, all this thick goop just doesn't work for me. I need my nutrients to have immediate results.
