For simplicity I would get a bag of roots organic soil, mix in maybe 1/3 of a #1 nursery pot full of steer manure and add about 3 table spoons of lime to it. Start and finish in a 2 gallon pot. This will eliminate you needing any veg nutrients. The steer manure and lime will cost you about half what a bottle of veg nutrients will cost. When you mix your soil wait at least 2 weeks min before you use it 30 days is best. Get some Epsom salt and bloom for nutrients. You might not need the Epsom but I would have it on hand just incase you run in to a mag def later down the road. It is also very cheep. You will start to feed around day 30-35 your bloom nutrients.

One thing I can say with organics that helps me is run the largest pot you can fit in your grow space. It makes growing easer. You don't have to water as much, you don't have to feed as much, its harder to swing the PH and its easer to grow a large plant. If you roam around the organics section there is quiet a few different styles of organics. I think the easiest way is using amendments in the soil and eliminating bottles all together but the cost of getting all the amendments can be a little expensive. After you get every thing though they last so long its worth it and they don't go sour and have a way longer shelf life than bottled nutrients. I run a 600W HPS with a full bag of soil per plant but even growing under my old 250 HPS in a 24"x24" room I would still run the same amount of soil. I like to do 1 plant under a 250 but have grown 4 plants in 1 pot with good results.

thanks brother now if u look i have posted what i got it has been shipped the mars light is on its way now to as well this set up i have i think it came with bubbler for the hydroponics set up but i will be using it for water from tap i understand they won't last long but I'm shure after these batches they will be less i have family that will be growing out doors all they use is chicken shyt

i wonder what if u used lion or big cat poop ? how is that

with a air stone or bubbler with tap water running it 24/7 now would it help the tap water besides c02 because with doing ph measurements I'm shure i will fuck it up lol

now how do u guys know what to ph some say the soil some say nutriments rite do i mixx everything together in 1 gallon container and then check it ? or do about 5 different bottles ?

i think with the size of the box i have 6 plants under 2 led's i have posted i think that should be enough light for 6 plants in
1 gallon airpots if anyone can tell me how they work for them please share

can anyone post a thread on a fox farm dairy as well that someone has done here

now i can get well water but it will be a bit hectic on always getting it

the nutriments i get i also wanted to know with fox farm if i was to make a small sample bottles for family or friends on there plant is that ok ? if all there using is chicken poop i can also get rabbit shyt and horse shyt

once i get up and running for awhile i might just go with composting now if composting is the best way to go organic and all my nutriments will be in the tea rite will i just need admenments for the soil i will be going ahead and getting a tote to keep for when i want to re use the soil later i know i asked a lot of questions i just want it to work this time and have smoke i have broken too many bones and i have a crushed tube got kicked in my balls as a kid breaking up with a girl so sorry if its too much info but i don't want u guys thinking weird or why i am asking or talking this much 2 slip dics in my back as well


also autos are there a way to clone them ?

Even better, Mars Hydro sells on ebay now. 300 watt $70!

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mars-Hydro-...162702?hash=item43e8a8740e:g:xTkAAOSwHPlWb3vD

I see some actually prefer the older Mars vs the Newers yet the old are the 3 watt chips where as the newer are the 5 if I am correct then what makes the older ones better, my leds got the 5watt chips is the issue the 3/5 watt or is it another matter all together

I like my old three watt lights also. They have ( and still do ) served me well. I may in the future gut them and use the housing for a COB chip. one Cree CXB 3590 puts out 10 times the PAR as all those three watt chips combined, and that's with it driven to less than 50% power!

but the new lights seem ok especially for the price. Its a better choice that CFLs for a new grower
