All was going great, then a spider mite infestation. I cross-contaminated. Another lesson learned. The windows in my office where my tent is located have been open and somehow the little bastards took a foothold in my garden. Luckily I caught them pretty early and I had neem oil on hand, as well as yellow sticky traps. My tent runs kinda warm during the day, but the humidity is at 35% and I always have two fans as well as my carbon filter air vent; so I have lots of air movement. The point is, it is not the ideal environment for most pests and I have several different methods I will be applying throughout the garden for the next two weeks until I harvest.
Thoughts on providing enough nutrients in the soil for the plant to uptake as needed; rather than feeding while watering? According to Ed Rosenthal if you start with a rich enough medium, you don't have to feed. This is my current method, as I am still a noob. Gracias friends.
Hey ,
You can use rich soils out there or do a living soil of your own making. Usually the cheapest way is buying bulk ingredients from a farm supply store, feed and seed type place. The great thing with that is you can continually reuse your soil. However you'll need to reammend the soil after each grow.
As for making through a whole grow without needing to add anything....you might if it's a relatively short grow. But for longer grows you'll probably need some form of top dressing. Mr. Bs greentrees is a pre designed mix of veg or bloom. Or kisorganics.com has some good recipes/tips/and products for sale(dry products that feed over time).
Good luck.✌️
This is how I figure out my watering it only works if you can use a ppm meter. Example I mix my water solution to let’s say 1000 ppm’s I slowly add it to the plant until there is at least a cup of over run. I will take that water and test it again. Re measure the ppm’s most of the time it is about 180 ppm. That tells me my plant really only wants 800 ppm’s of nutrient solution. I adjust accordingly. This is just my method, I’m just saying
