Next time at city mill they have chicken shit. It was 6-4-4 i believe. Great for veg. I also recommend some cal/mag or epsom salts to keep on hand. As far as growing outdoors im not sure how to stop pest, i have tried and always end up harvesting early because gnats and aphids fucking love me and my organic soil mix bongsmilie. most definetly you need to figure out a way to keep all the bad pest away outdoors in hawaii, and im sure these guys can help you out with that. And i think those worms might be earthworms but don't worry, those time released nutes will scare em off if you dont want em.

so given I've sprouted in early April, when can I expect flowering and harvest to occur? August-december?

depends on strain, maturity and genetics though. sometimes sooner sometimes later as so i heard. guarentee she will be big by then.

SPLFreak808. In regards to my fish tank I have. Can I use the shit water for my plants instead of using the island supreme chemical ferts?

honestly im not sure about that one bro i never tried that before. if it were me i would go back to city mill and buy the organic soils with the organic amendments and make yourself a super soil that can sustain itself with just water. then buy some beneficial nematodes and add them to the mix. you should have an outdoor friendly mix. i suck outdoor & i dont grow outdoor so you have to wait for someone to give you advice.

He was using the aquarium as a res. So it isn't officially aquaponics. More like fish manure :)

I have always wondered whether the shrimp farms on the northeast shore of Oahu would have some good shrimp waste for use as fertilizer.

Lol I wouldn't doubt it. I hope someone here can help with this question....how long can I have fish tank water sitting before it going bad? Like say I did a water change and gravle vac of my tank, that water that I've collected how long can it stay good? Would having a pH meter be wise to have if doing it that way?

Should be fine to hold on to the fish tank water, if it sits really long and/or it's really dirty I'd probably dilute more the longer it sits. Personally, I'd probably just wet my worm beds with that water as that would give it a chance to breakdown and it would be available when you plant into the media (assuming you've mixed a proper soil and have worm beds). Also, with a cycling and stable soil, the pH of your water becomes negligible.

As long as the papers you smoke don't have nasty shit in it you're fine giving the roaches back~

If you are only growing in a 3 gallon pot, you are probably going to start flowering this month and finish ~60 days from now, unless you are giving it supplemental lighting to keep it in veg.

We never get over 14 hours of sunlight here...so many indica dominant strains dont catch the veg through the summer like they do on the mainland. If you grew a sativa dominant strain, planted in a 20+ gallon pot or in ground it might grow through the summer and finish in sept. or october, if it gets really good sunlight.

Anybody know about skunkdog, where it came from/lineage, ect?

Trying to decide if this mite infested cut is worth the hassle. Aloha, everybody's garden looking prime.

Hey what's up Spliff, long time no see. I can ask my buddies about Skunkdog, I'd almost guarantee they'd know. And it might be worth the hassle, Skunkdog is the bread and butter strain for three buddies of mine. They run other stuff too, but they always have at least 14 Skunkdogs out. It yields really well, is mold resistant, it looks, smells and tastes good and is potent and is pretty quick to finish. I don't know about two of the guys, but one of my buddies consistently gets over a pound per plant during long season and about a QP during short season. I'd give it a shot if I were you.

Howzit Philip... There are a lot of different websites that will ship to Hawaii. A quick search of this forum will tell you...

I've ordered and received seeds from Attitude, Sannie, Swami organic seed and a couple others...
Hope that helps get you started.
