heavy clay will need gypsum to break it up fast. 50g per sqM then run a quarterly dose of Bio balance Media or other high quality humic acid (rate is up to 4kg per hectare per year for heavy clay. well if you use mine, others will be far higher than this. Our humic acid is a complex but the humic part is 89.4% pure.
The other thing is to grow with a mycorrihizal inoculate like Root Better since this will help break the clays and extract the minerals eg Iron compounds of phosphates etc. These secrete many organic acids used to both lower pH and improve soil friability, water and nutrient retention, pathogen protection and so on. Mycos are literally 1 cell thick and so can pass between the clays. As they mineralise the P in the environment, the heat energy breaks further clays, then the fungus secretes a glomalin to rebind aggregates in to better forms more suited for plants, water and air. Sub surface irrigation can help where top down watering drives out O2 levels :)
thats what i was telling him gypsum,,hopefully he been on in a bit and see this
 
thats cool,,great stuff with natraul meaning
yeah the water is high EC tho buddy its 1.4 and made up of all sorts of shit. All the crap they been pouring on the land has to go somewhere, i keep trying to explain this much. if we already have a natural cycle of nitrogen, and this is fixed to the most extent, anything we make subsequently in the lab is excess and this means only one thing, eutrophication. :)

ole boy i got my soil from ,sells the compost from the city sewage,landscapers use the shit out of it,,and quite cheaper it is,,but me i stick to animal manure and when i can find green compost prefer that,,all yard waste branches and leaves ,,you cant hardly find it cause of the OMRI rating and procedures,,so when you can its expensive,,i see it this way though,i will grow healthier food for comsumption and its worth it to me,,the compost i bought is cow and chicken manure,,that chicken shit is hot,lol
 
thats oK if you stand it against me LOL
i checked it causw after a couple days standing in the bucket i have for the deer ,i noticed a brown rust look on the bottom,,so yesterday i cleaned all the buckets and refilled them,,this morning ,same thing a rust look,,be interesting to know if its actually benifitul to the plants,,they love it for sure,,better than last place,,it had liquid limestone coming from faucet,,are well is 500 foot deep water taste great,even mama enjoys it,,she wouldnt drink nothing but bottle water since we moved to this part of texas and she like this water

most likely the iron in the well water mate precipitating in UV light
 
@Ecompost when i run out of the micro/tea im using ill be coming to you for my new micro/tea. i like soil.. im learning to be a lazy farmer. let mother nature do the work and shit. even tho i have to say hydro could be fun just because you could learn so much.. by removing elements and see what the plant does, unlike me learning what the plant does as i fuck up. heh.

but yeah man i dig the soil grow so far..

so what cause the hay smell.. and is it normal for a cure to go through a hay smell first, or once they get a hay smell can it go away or is the bud toast/.

chris
some plants lose smell under the wrong drying environment, some plants lose it forever, some for a while while the Chlorophyll is being destroyed. Always dry in the dark and in conditions of stable %RH with mild air movement

hydro is subject to energy which not many people control. Whatever its benefits, no one without serious investment, can get away with hydro in a power cut :) Soil and microbes is the past, present and future of growing imo

yeah i cut a bud off to see what the humid is. and i left itin the jar for a few hours and the humid was 80 percent. sp the plants needt o hang for a few more days. but now im trying to save the bud.. so last night i removed it from the jar and put iti a bag over night then jar and waiting for the humid reading in 2 hours. all i can say iv learn from the bud i cut off is i have lots of resin so i did good on the kush.
