@GreenGrows365,
I started growing about 15 months ago and knew right away that organic was too hard for me. I switched to coco and and bottled nutrients and saw a major improvement. I've done a lot of internet research and found that advice and info can vary quite a bit. Some sent me down the wrong path. If you want some real science, check out Dr. Bruce Bugby on YouTube. He is by far the most informative of any grower and rightly so, he's a professor that teaches medicinal cannabis cultivation. Talks about lighting, nutrients, soil/medium, Temp, humidity, in a very practical way.
If this grow works out the way it looks like it will, my yield is going to be at least double what I've done before. These plants are by far the biggest I've ever grown and to say they are vigorous would be an understatement. Check out my diary that I started just a little while ago. I started documenting late, already into flower. But my next grow I'll do from the beginning. I wish I could do outdoor. :)
Keep up the good fight man, if you can master organic, you're a rock start in my book.
P.S. I started brewing hard apple cider and put the vessel right next to my tent where the co2 can get sucked right into the tent. Cider and a little co2 boost? Yes please! lol
@TheOtterPilot,
For sure, after doing more research on living soils, It definitely isn't fair to call mixing some amendments into FFOF a living soil. I have an outdoor girl in a 15-gallon pot with buildasoil 3.0 living soil mix, and that girl has been super happy. I want to get to a point where I can just reuse good organic soil over and over. Once again I appreciate the help and advice!
@TheOtterPilot, Thanks for the advice! I threw my humidifier back in there and we are back in the 60% ballpark. I am not adding any nutrients as it is, the only thing I've added since they sprouted is some silica at 1/2 tsp per gallon, molasses, and some recharge. This mix is supposed to be "water only" to harvest, but I'm thinking the FFOF and Natures Living soil concentrate is just too hot tbh. The first stages of growth the roots were still mostly in the cooler starter soil plug. Im thinking once the roots really moved into the hotter mix it has just been too much.
