First time growing outdoors in the summer, I guess I have a huge moth problem where I live because there are bud worms on all of my plants that have flowered early. I have a critical kush that has some very dense nugs and every week I find more caterpillar after I have spent 20 minutes every...

Since I have to wait for some fresh flower to try PsyCro's olive oil extract and also wait 90-120 days to try the GrowGoddess natural decarb, I figured I should just make some regular CCO... but my brain loves to complicate or "optimize" things, so I was trying to find an ideal distiller for...

Thanks for clearing that up. I read some of the posts and threads by LabRat but didn't fully understand the timeline for when and what process he abandoned. I read about GrowGoddess's technique and that sounds like something that is easy to do, although I don't have 200 proof ethanol, only...

I'm sure this has been addressed somewhere but I couldn't find it using the search function, maybe because I'm not using the right words. If I wanted to take freshly picked buds, freeze them and then do a LabRat type extraction where you reduce the alcohols temp to freezing and combine it with...

Cations and Cation Exchange Capacity | Fact Sheets | soilquality.org.au After your first successful grow I would suggest reading up on soil if that topic interests you. With 10-30 hrs of reading you would have enough knowledge to build your own ideal soil and understand the pros/cons of every...

Yep that's it! Being a beginner I didn't know the proper term for it, thanks for the info. I searched Gas Lantern Routine and I got a lot to work with now, including some of your grow videos/journals. I will keep an eye out for odd reactions to the irregular light.

It sounds good but if you really want to know whats in it you could buy 1 cuft and get a soil test for $17-25 or ask if they have done their own soil test.

I have one plant growing in a very similar soil. It loves it. The bentonite could be replaced with quality biochar like Black Owl if you're looking for alternatives. I assume the reason you are adding bentonite is to increase CEC? But you would need to either buy activated biochar or...

I'm looking for the cheapest most reliable solution to blast plants with light for an hour to keep them in veg during the short days. I was thinking about something like this. TL 54W par38 Maybe I can put one of these between 4 plants in the greenhouse and turn it on for 1 hour to interrupt...

I just bought 15 cuft of 707 and I didn't have any fly issues. On the positive side, you can use that roots soil to grow some good veggies :D
