Thanks for the info. After looking at all the costs, and realizing how much work it is... and the "oh shit" factor. I have decided to not grow. Maybe when the rest of the world gets a clue and legalizes..... Adios

Thanks for the feedback! I am going to do some experments with containers and soil mixes. I plan on doing about half in 10 gallons, some in 5 gallons, and a few right into the ground in pits. Will be experimenting with: 80% FFOC and 20% perlite 40% FFOC, 40% Kelloggs Patio Soil, 20%...

I have been leaning towards pots because I can control the soil easier than planting in the ground. I am limited by the ceiling of the greenhouse 10-12 feet. I read that 1 foot per gallon? Thinking of 10 gallon pots (even though the pots are above the ground and will be pushing the limits of the...

Humboldt was and still is one of the outdoor growing mecca's in the US. The areas that still are growing 10 foot trees outdoors are higher in elevation, above the fog. Southern Humboldt near Garberville is even hotter, they are plantation style planting entire mountains. It is obscene! I may...

Any feedback on Harvest Supreme soil? Did you mix it with peat to make it lighter? It is a light product already. Any trouble with any time released nutes? Thanks for all your help!

Any ideas for a home mixed organic soil for growing in pots in a greenhouse? Plants will be hand watered. Trying to get it pulled together cheaper than Fox Farm.... Looking at about 50% peat 25% Worm Castings 25% Perlite (would like to get amount of perlite down so I can re-use soil in...

And yes.... just read the ingredients in MG Organic. Pushing the word organic in my opinion. Not interested in released nutrients that can't be controlled. Either going Fox Farm or mixing soil. Any feedback on mixes - 50% Peat, 25% worm castings, 25% perlite, a dash of lime....

Thanks for feedback. The greenhouse will be closed down in the evening and I will put in a few 55 gal barrels for watering and solar heat retention. Lots of people are growing outdoors here. The greenhouse will just offer a little more protection, privacy.... and maybe let me push a crop of...

Hi I was recently prescribed medical marijuana in Humboldt County. That means 99 plants..... with a 100 square foot canopy. Staying within the canopy restrictions are important to me. Want to do it organically in a greenhouse. This will be my first grow alone and in the "driver's seat."...
