organic soil

Welcome to my 1st organic grow! I kinda found orgics accidentally when watching a video. I had know of organic growing, but I didn't know anything about it. While watching more, and more videos things started to add up. Everything we do as growers is trying to mimic nature. I had been doing...

Hello to all. Just trying to finalize a couple major components to my first grow set up. Namely: lights, soil and nutrients. Total Budget for Grow: $6,000 Tent: 6.5’ x 6.5’ x 6.5’ Goal: 4-6 pounds Obviously, I don’t expect to hit my goal on my first grow. But, I do feel like that is a big...

The tent is 2’X3’X4’. Lighting is two ViparSpectra 300W LED lights with a total of 600W on an 18/6 schedule. Irrigation is by sub irrigation through deep 10” plant pot saucers for wicking beds. Ventilation is by a vaunted 6” exhaust fan to a carbon filter tied to an Inkbird Temperature...

Hello world and those who inhabit it. I have a situation: Organically grown Plants dying/on verge of death after going completely dry over night. They are my first grow experience survivors :baby: SETUP: *Lemon Bud plants (feminized/photoperiod) by Green label Seeds *grow tent *600w LED with...

So yeah, that's but put mildly. I have grown crappy photos before, loooooong time ago. They were crappy. Sorta put me off of growing. All in on the autos now, full tilt and cowabunga, or whatnot. My mission statement and thus the ultimate goal for this grow is this: To kill the plant...

"Dawn of The Plant's of The Ape" Hello, world. Tina and Louise here. We came out tapping on the 13th of Friday at roughly 9:30 p.m. and we are raring to GROW! As you can see, Tina looks to be suffering from what looks like "nute burn" which is hard to do w/o any nutes, so she is definitely a...

So I am running these in the Mephisto GotY Comp, and since there's not much known about Sam×HBSS I thought I'd do dedicated thread. Soil is made up of potting soil, coco, vermiculite, worm castings, a lil bat guano, gbd ss at recommended rate. Layered so most nutes on bottom of pot, and...

A good friend of mine here on AFN, ( bet you can't guess who..lol ), gifted me a couple of Purple Amnesia! Wooooo! everything I hear about this strain says kickass! And of course, I'll be using 2, Autocobs for the grow. This time, back to the good stuff, organic soil! Three gallon pot of it...

Anyone have any success using 2.1 True Living Organic Master Mix? I heard the soil used to be good but was discontinued despite the popular demand. I was thinking of using it however if its better to just buy the ingredients myself, then i'll do that. I like the simplicity of this but i'm...

I was down at the local Ace Hardware a few weeks back and saw this soil mix. It looked pretty good so I picked up a bag. 1.5 cubic feet for about $9. The ingredients are pretty much what I always used when I made my own mix. It does have some bark, which I'm not fond of, but screening...

Just dropped three Sour Crack and one Sour Hound for what will hopefully be a quick tasty run! Here's my setup: Tent size - 4'x4' with carbon filter and Vortex fan. Lighting - I have an adjustable 400w digital ballast and an adjustable 1000w digital ballast. Both made by iPower and can be...

Hey everyone, just filled my 2 empty autopots with Happy Frog amended with vermiculite, Dr. Earth dry bloom fert, gypsum, alfalfa meal, and diatomaceous earth bottom half. Lighter mix next quarter of the pot, then just happy frog and verm top quarter. Plan to run just water, unless she needs...

Hey Buds, I'm going to do a treetop grow this summer and ideally I don't want to have to do much more than water my auto-flower plants weekly throughout the summer. My problem is that I want to plant seed directly into the final pot and not germinate prior to planting and it seems like with a...

I wanted to see what interest we could get going on making our own super soils. I will be posting some recipes I have found from a few reputable growers and I encourage others to do the same.

Been some talk and minor controversy over recycling soil. I am a big proponent of recycled soil, hell, of recycling everything I can. Its not about saving money, its about why waste anything? We all waste way too much stuff, and every little bit you recycle/reuse helps a used and abused Earth...

Okay guys it's time for a soil upcycle. This project just started as a regular recycling, and I over doubled my soil... So I'm referring to it as an upcycle.:eyebrows: So my soil is about 1 year old and , and I felt like it was time to freshen it up. My original soil was made using LC mix#1. If...
