Hey there, Im curious about how you guys grow. What is your procedure AFTER the soil has cycled (cooked?)

I dont have anything set in stone, but Ive been trying to..

Foliar 2x week - 200x Aloe/Protekt/ Dr. Bonners/(Trying to figure out how often to use kelp/alfalfa foliar?)

Soil Drench 2x week - 200x Aloe/Coconut Water/Kelp & Alfalfs/Ocassional Protekt

SST- I have Barley Seeds I want to make SST with. How often do you use it?

Curious about- BioAG FulPower/ TM -7/ *Malted Barley?*

honestly...
I've tried all the fancy stuff, and all ii stick to is two coco water feedings during flower.
all my folliars is done during vege, and it's primarily focused on keeping mites down, lavender oil, surfectant, and pro-tekt.
a soil drench like that is gonna run you into problems man.
Careful trying to give them too much love..

Thanks bro, always happy to see you stop by. I shouldve typed it out better. I didnt mean all of those at once, Ive been doing coconut/aloe for example. I was reading Headtreeps posts on the ROLS thread, and he posted his schedule and does foliar/soil dr3nches each twice a week.

Trying to figure out a light, but beneficial "schedule." Normally I just watch the plants, but would like to be a little less random ya know.

I don't run much in flower. Mostly veg to keep mites down to. I screwed up this run and got mites in flower. I used spinosad.


I also made manure tea with chicken poop as they looked hungry. I believed I screwed up and went to hot.

seems a lil excessive to do with any nutrients, gotta remember it's not like a hydroponic setup.
I've tinkered with lots of different techniques, and for me the simplest was to amend the soil with LOTS if humus, and a light to moderate amount of nutrients in the form of meals, that have been cycled and made available already.
also I really prefer to skip any type of "schedule", way too many variables for that, strain preferences, physical size differences, humidity, etc, etc.
Maybe if you were doing a monocrop for yrs and yrs, and had it dialed in to what It prefers, but even still there are so many variables involved...
I water, when they need it, and nothing else.
After building the soil, you literally do nothing but sit back and wait.

For sure.. One of the reasons I went organic is to save some time away from mixing nutes. Im just trying to see what other people do. Most of my info I got is from the rollitup ROLS thread.

Whats your opinion on Bioag Fulpower? Seems like a pretty hot item.

the bioag fulpower is a good product... IF you don't have any compost or worm castings.
if you do, it's superfluous
a good compost will give you all of that and a whole lot more

Ok buddy, Im going to close my wallet and grab neem cake/ oil from neemresource. Good lookin out.
Good choice man, I think when most growers start out, we like to throw all sorts of gismos and gadgets to get the best herb.
More often than not, it's counterproductive. Growing cannabis is reaaaally easy.
90% of the products at any grow store are probably not needed.
humus, mild amount of nutrients, and lots of aeraition

My schedule is RO water every 2-3 days augmented by whatever water my dehumidifier collects. I give a small dose of general organics liquid cal mag+ every other watering. About twice a month I will brew up an EWC, kelp meal, and guano tea for my girls in early to mid flowering. The plants close to finish get just h2o for the final few weeks. Simple ez massengill

Have you started a worm bin yet? May or may not be able to do a compost pile, but if you have a 3'x3' spot in a corner, you can do a worm bin. The benefits are far ahead of anything you can purchase. Except for the ProTekt, all my BioAg stuff has sat, unused, for several years.

Neem cake and kelp meal are now the only things I'll order in bulk. Tried a lot of 'stuff', but those two are the only things with no equal available locally. Crustacean meal is still being evaluated.8-)

Yes Ive had a worm bin going for about 5weeks now, very simple one tub (27gal tote) setup. Thanks for the heads up about the Bioag stuff, only got the idea to use it as I saw headtreep and cann use it (beginning of ROLS thread.

So the general organics doesn't effect the living soil, I've been having mag. def. with my gorilla glue and have been wounding of that stuff would kill off microbes or not so I just been spraying them with Epsom salts and kept it seems to be helping some but I've always wondered if calmag would be ok for ROLS or not.
