If that's everything you want to use then yes its complete. Sounds like a plan. And yes def start using the nutes at 2/3 the recommended dose.



Come by my blog (Its all about cannabis) and check it out. Do me a favor and leave a comment under one of my posts. I will give anyone rep who does. Just make sure to send me a message here so I know who to rep. Link is below in my Signature.

Read a book called teaming with microbes. It is available on utorrent or you could just buy it.

You could just use the base soil and perlite. It seems like you're already adding enough calcium (lime), and the roots excellurator (salt based nute) will kill all the microbiology in your soil mix, so you don't get too much benefit from the organic lime. Maybe you're using it as a ph buffer, but you could just ph your water prior. Your recipe, as it stands, is not too hot of a ph by any means.

I think your veg and flower nutes are salt based as well. So there's also no need for any of the fungi, as the salt based nutes will kill it. Molasses sole purpose is to provide carbs for the microbiology which in turn will exudate nutrients that the plant will be able to take up. The carbs in mollases are far to big to be absorbed through the roots of the plant. As said before, your salt based nutes will kill the microbiology so you don't need the molasses either.

Not ragging on you using ferts at all, fdd has a thread called it's all bullshit (I think that there's an * or two somewhere in there) where he just uses a base soil mixed with perlite and two nutes (one for veg one for flower) and he grew some mother fucking trees. Just tryin to help the wallet out.

Edit: I'm not positive that your veg and flower nutes are salt based, I'm just assuming they are because I think most if not all of them are.

Thanks for the advice. Pureblend pro veg and bloom are both organic for sure so they won't kill the bacteria and fungi. And I was guaranteed by someone that roots excelerator does not kill the bacteria/fungi either. I will check out that website and read the book. Thanks again . I like to save money, but I'm pretty sure there's no salt based nutes in there, I hope roots excel isn't because I was told that it wasn't. Th

Chemicals unless done in excess (which will kill your plants) do not kill microbes. What do you think your "organics" contain or produce? That's right, chemicals aka salts or the product would be useless regarding plant nutrition. Again, you guys are getting sucked into the organic racket.

Anyone can grow "trees" given the right legal environment and the ability for unrestricted plant growth.

I love all the die hard organic growers using epsoms salts in their mixes........too funny......
I think most do the 'organic' because its hippy cool. Nothing to do with health reasons. If health reasons were the case then they certainly would be much more educated on the matter.......

Exactly how do you buffer/control your mediums pH just by pHing the watering/feedin solutions? Dosent work that way.....
