Earth Dust - DESCRIPTION
🔹Earth Dust is our all-natural plant nutrient designed for indoor and outdoor flowering plant growers. You can grow easily by “just adding water” to your soil for the entire growth cycle. It creates a “living soil” so your plants thrive from seedling all the way through flower and harvest. Earth Dust represents an organic dry amendment method of gardening, it’s made of a natural powder of ingredients.
🔹Because you only need to water your soil with Earth Dust, you can concentrate on caring for your plants and getting a healthy crop “on autopilot”. Now you can grow without spending hours of your life mixing chemical nutrients, and you can do it naturally. What’s more, is you will enjoy the cleanest, most aromatic, and flavorful harvest you’ve ever experienced when a plant grows in a rich, organic web of living soil.
Product Highlights
🔹All-Natural Ingredients – Mostly plant-based – Safe around children and pets.
🔹Packaged in kraft paper bags that are recyclable and compostable.
🔹Easy to Use – Just mix the powder into the soil 3 separate times – then water only.
🔹Packed full of rich microbe food & contains billions of beneficial fungi and bacteria! Creates a resilient, living soil that defends against pests and diseases.
🔹Rich in trace minerals and nutrients for full plant expression. Sourced from rock dust, sea-farmed kelp, and land-grown crops.
🔹Soil Conditioners help balance pH and make nutrients more available in the soil. Achieved with ingredients like bat guano, worm castings, limestone, molasses, and humic acid.
🔹The correct balance of N-P-K nutrients for each stage of growth:
🔹Earth Dust Base (3-1-2) contains key nutrients for sustained vegetative growth. High nitrogen (N), Low Phosphorous (P), and Medium Potassium (K).
🔹Earth Dust Boost (2-3-6) contains accelerated-release nutrients for powerful flowering growth. Low nitrogen (N), Medium Phosphorous (P), and High
Potassium (K).
🔹Re-use soil harvest after harvest by simply adding more Earth Dust Base to begin again. Create your own living soil that gets better every time it’s used.
🔹Go organic, save time, and get predictable, healthy harvests.
🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹🔹
Compost Tea for Vegetative Stage
Water 4 Gallons
3 Cups Composr (Your Favorite Worm)

Sun Dec 27 Witnessing a true Stretch heading into week 2 of flower. Hoping to keep Veg Nutrients high this week, and be prepared to switch/transition into the Flowering formulas at the sight of “Hairs” being formed on bud sites.
-switched the direction of my light, to make the most efficient use of the light hood itself. Sticking with the diagonal set-up in the tent.
Mon; chemistry is listed above
***plant was originally super-cropped between the 3rd & 4th node, there’s not much room underneath*** 4th / 5th node might be worth considering next time.
- soil / sand-coating seems really dry. This 2nd week will see feeding every other day. Nutes will remain as is Until there’s changes
** Uv-B was brought to my attention a few weeks ago, (thx DoDrugs420) and I am going to run a side by side test on it. Later this week I plan to install a 18” uv-b tube above one of the two plants, for the duration of Flower.
*** Working with stakes again is kinda fun. But I also remember nearly poking my eye out several times with them. Safety glasses and Marking the Ends of the Stakes is a really good method of preventing accidents ***
Wed Dec 30th
- Food includes Unsulphured Molasses tonight. Still including it every third watering/feeding
-Going to wait one more feed before adding some bloom nutes. Crazy growth and activity at the bud sites. And no groups of gangly hairs
Thurs Dec 31st “happy new year all !”
Next feed will feature half Bloom half Veg nutes and will be on Jan 2nd
-Uv-B bulb installed ~ 14” from angled canopy...
-running it on a reduced schedule right now. 2 x 3 hours per nite till I get to see how the leaves like it
Recommended **12 hr CMH / LED etc. = 8 hr Uv-B**
- Uv-B Bulb found at a Pet Store ~ $34 cdn and a simple black light fixture ~ $33 got it up and running.
UV-B light is Not to be viewed... it’s dangerous to human eyes / skin.
Jan 1. Moving to Bloom food!
New growth and the arrival of Hairs on both plants will see me start to change their diet. Tonight the first Bloom food will be given and the transition will be over 3 feeds. 1/3, 2/3 and full bloom recommendation. (Opposite with Medi-One) 2/3, 1/3, 0
-plants had many branches that needed to be repositioned and LST applied. Canopy was releveled. Cleaned out some useless leaves from the undercarriage
-what a great way to start the new year. Having a tremendous grow...
-going to slowly start pulling back on the Rapid Start, now that we are entering true flower stage. (4ml/gal down to 1.0-1.5ml/g by the end of week 6) Same goes for CaliMagic. I’ve taken it higher than previously, (5ml vs 2ml ) and the results are obvious.
Time to let these numbers drop a bit, make room for Bloom.

We finally made it ladies and gentlemen. It is an honor to introduce you to the beautiful Lady Wedding Cake and the beautiful Cookies Kush twins. Even though I'm pretty sure cookies kush #1 would have needed another week, she had to go under the knife,too. The ladies finished just in time for the super bowl 🏈. We need the space in the tent asap because of the Eternity Grow Cup. Next Stop Zami Runtz and Blue Gelato 41

The twin Organic grow has been harvested on 18.8.25. Here we about a week behind that one, as I did not feed well enough. Hopefully next week she will be done, but lets see! This is definitely the smaller plant.
17.8.25:
I watered with 3L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.5 with;
💜 2ml Trace
PH: 6.5
PPM: 355.
Thanks for stopping by and hanging out 😁💚 ✌️ 🌱 🙏

the two BPP R3 in soil went into bloom. the dwc are starting to enter bloom slowly as well
36-42
The veg and seedling cycle on the three gallon pot was short and it's gone into bloom with very little stretching. All of the plants look healthy, they look fine, no nutrient. Or PH issues
Only one banana purple punch has been in bloom for about two weeks.Two out of the other four are about to finish stretching and go into bloom, and the fourth one is still a little stunted.And delayed.
The cherry lemon gelato in the deep water culture just entered bloom.
The gorilla z is still in veg

🌱 Week 2 Report: The Journey Evolves 🌱
Grow Fam, the adventure is in full swing! 🌟 The Gorilla Melon from Fast Buds is out and shining its light, and the Papaya Zoap has made its debut in the Cannakan, bringing with it a story that adds even more depth to this incredible run.
When the universe speaks, we listen. 🍈✨ I didn’t plan on popping Papaya Zoap from Sweet Seeds just yet, but sometimes things just have a way of aligning. After a few other seeds didn’t germinate, I felt an inner pull toward this special strain. As it turns out, the universe had something beautiful in mind! Just days later, my brother @daggadna also began germinating the same genetics—gifted to us during Spannabis. Was it a coincidence? I don’t think so. 🌱 This is more than just a grow now—it’s a journey with purpose, guided by synchronicity and connection. I can already feel the magic building up with this one, and I can’t wait to see where this road takes us!
Now, onto the Papaya Zoap… something tells me this plant is going to take us on a ride we didn’t expect but absolutely needed. 💚 Let’s make something incredible, Brother Dagga—this one’s going to be legendary.
Gear Updates: All Systems Go 🚀
This week, everything’s dialed in perfectly with the TrolMaster system. Shout out to the incredible DSH-2U Humidity Station! 🌬️ This tool is giving me precision control over the RH (relative humidity) ranges in the room, keeping the environment just right for my babies. Having that accurate readout and control allows me to maintain optimal levels for each stage of growth. It’s like magic—you plug it in, set the desired ranges, and let it do its thing! 🌡️
By monitoring and adjusting humidity levels on-the-fly through the TrolMaster app, I can ensure the environment remains stable, and that means happier plants and healthier growth! No more guessing games. From anywhere—whether I’m working in the garden or chilling out—I can track and tweak it all. Heck, I could be on the toilet and still have complete control over my room! 😂
The AMP-3 Precision Meter has been running 24/7 in my water solution, giving me real-time updates so I can make any corrections when needed, right from my phone. This tech has taken my grow to another level. ✨
Nutrition Update: Keeping It Balanced 🍃
As for feeding, we’re sticking with the basics to give the plants what they need, without overloading. Right now, I’m running:
• Regulator: 0.15ml/l
• Startbooster: 0.25ml/l
For now, I feel like this is the sweet spot—just enough to encourage root development and early growth without overloading them. I’ll be adjusting the feed as we go deeper into the grow, keeping an eye on how they respond. You know me, always tweaking and improving along the way!
Shoutouts & Gratitude 🙌💚
Huge love to everyone following along—whether you’re here on Grow Diaries, over on YouTube, or on IG. Your support keeps this journey alive, and I am so grateful for every comment, like, and message! Special shoutout to my sponsors for fueling this project:
• Nutrition: @aptusholland @aptus_world @aptus_es @aptusbrasil @aptus_thailand @aptus_portugal @aptususa_official @aptusplanttechnz @aptusplanttechaus
• Controls: @trolmaster.eu @trolmaster.eu.support @trolmaster.support @trolmaster.agro
• Soil: @promix_growers_eur @promix_cannabis @promixmitch
More to come soon, and you won’t want to miss it! 📺 I’m also documenting everything on my YouTube channel, and I’ll be sharing behind-the-scenes content on IG, so hit that subscribe button and follow along. Let’s grow together, fam!
Growers Love to All 💚
The love and support from the grow community is something I never take for granted. This journey wouldn’t be the same without all of you! I’m so honored to be part of this amazing community, and I can’t wait to share more updates and insights along the way. Remember, this isn’t just about growing plants—it’s about growing together. 🌱
Until next time, stay positive, stay inspired, and keep pushing forward!
This week’s shoutout is dedicated to the synchronicity of life, my growing community, and of course, Papaya Zoap and Gorilla Melon. Let’s see what magic we can create together!

Today marks the start of the final week before harvest, and I’ve officially begun flushing the plant.
It's really exciting to see how far it has come. The buds have developed beautifully, and the scent is amazing – super fruity and sweet, almost like a mix of berries and tropical fruit.
The aroma fills the space every time I check on it.
I’m pretty satisfied with how the plant has grown overall.
The structure is solid, and the buds are dense and sticky. Everything looks on track for a good yield, and I can’t wait to see the final product after curing.
Fingers crossed for a smooth finish!

Today was transplant day for my two white widow ladies. They’ve come such a long way since I first germinated them. I now have more time to stay on top of them so it’s only up from here. We’re 58 days from seedling and day 51 of veg. Will be flipping to flower once they get to the desired height of my choice. I topped dressed the soil with 5 tbsp of Earth Dust Base and waterd at a pH of 6.9. Catch yall on the next update! ✌️🏾
