Hey BAR good to see you are still here and growing. Most of the people from a couple years ago seem inactive now. Going to catch up on your journals
WoW she has come on nicely 
Nothing like a little pH control eh?
Amazing how surprised we get when they respond to the basics. Lol!
Happy days Reg. Peace and plants y'all.
B A R... brother, I'm glad to see you're still growing! I'm back and subbed. Hope all is well in your world. Much love

If it isn't the Perthpiper! To be honest I'm not that active myself. This year 420 time at work is a long lost memory. I'm actually doing what they pay me for now; no more down time and life itself has me busy. I guess that's a good thing but I do miss all of you.Hey BAR good to see you are still here and growing.

I know, right Sue. It's doing so well now that we've started another plant in paper medium.Nothing like a little pH control eh?
You aint seen nothing yet Jaga!
EXACTLY 1 MONTH AFTER FLIPPING TO 12/12
Paper has proven to be a good medium after finally dialing in the correct ph level. As you can see below she's crazy top heavy. I didn't even notice it until I pulled her out of the Bloom Tent this evening; she was being supported by the plants surrounding her.
And after tying her up with some gardening wire...
Sorry about the sideways view
Until Next Time... Keepem Green

Nice! keep on chasin the paper!
You know a grow medium is nothing but something to hold the roots together so they can uptake food. PH I could see being a problem with different growing mediums. I still remember seeing this guy back about 72' growing the first hydro I ever saw. He used a 5-gallon water bottle with a hole in the bottom and a wick hanging into the food. He used sawdust for medium in one, and pea gravel in another. Pea gravel was to heavy to move damn near. He had made his own HID light. Wasn't no stores that sold grow lights back in them days... Did I tell you I shook the man that made dirt? Sometimes I feel that old. Dude I been growing almost every year since 73'. Unless I was in errrr, collage. I lose track on all the grows after awhile. But I thought that was so cool. In a water bottle, in his garage under a handmade hood and made alittle room. Tents? WTF was them? But the idea are all the same. Plants are shaping up there,, Keepem Green
Looking sweet. Must be a pungent baby by now. Well done team. 
Keep up the good work. 
Keep up the good work.
Thats a result worth taking note of really well done

OK folks, we took her down a couple of weeks ago and to make a short story even shorter PAPER & VERMICULITE is a cheap and efficient alternative to soil.
Sorry it took this long to show the results but I saved the pics.
They speak for themselves...
As you can see below once the paper degrades into the Vermiculite it turns into a medium that looks and feels a lot like soil. Like Woody said at the beginning of this thread; "Medium is just something for the roots to grow in". The nutes are what our beloved plant feeds on. The trick is adjusting your PH levels for soil-less mediums (we finally tuned it in at 5.3)
With that said we now have 3 pots going with the same medium and since we know the correct PH levels They're all the picture of health...
BAR, signing off... over & out...

Far out, great grow, Rock On BAR!
Cool... That's all medium is really. And as long as it has enough substance to hold your plant upright and isn't off the scale on the PH. Hydroponics... Sand, peagravel, sawdust, a old blanket rolled up. Hell little squares of felt stacked up in a pot. Man I looked afew times to see if I could find a pic or vid of that growing in a rolled up phone book... Great to see ya again, had me wondering wtf... Keepem Green
Good showing reg. Proved that this fine plant can grow anywhere.
Well there ya go. Three more in the works, eh? I'm looking forward to the smoke report. 
I love the way you fly in and out Reg. Lol! Have a delightful day.
