Do you like to grow with organic inputs too? What are some of your favorite inputs? I'm focusing on composting and vermicomposting now more than anything, and I've just started using malted barley. I've been waiting for mass med's comments to be corroborated by other people on forums or...

Great point! It would be so interesting to see a comparison of soil microbiology in a mix of soil with and without neem meal. I use neem meal because it is comes from a therapeutic plant, it's a good soil conditioner for an ammendment (aeration), it's affordable, and provides a decently balanced...

I think you should keep the neem meal! I've been listening to Mass Medical since I came across his Putang. The idea of a mentally therapeutic strain is extremely exciting to me. I just can't justify the seed cost yet. That said, I also listen to clackamas (Jim) coot, and he had a recent...

Hey everyone, I noticed what seems to be a zinc issue with one of my plants. I encountered this last run, and I thought it was from adding too much phosphorus in the soil. I avoided adding any extra phosphorus this time, but the issue has returned just like before! Purple Punch clone 18/6 in a...

I purchased a Hanna Instruments soil pH probe, and I found the soil to be slightly alkaline for each of my plants. The top layer of each pot varied from 6.8-7.4 pH. More concerning, however, was that pH of the runoff water was reading as high as 7.8. I had not been able to test the runoff water...

Wish I knew how to help them. F22

Hey thank you for the idea. I've been reading runoff ppms to be between 500-900. I will water with low ppms usually 200-300 (living soil). I actually thought she might be underfed and fading early, so I fed her yesterday. Gave her a topdress of ewc, and watered 1gal of RO with 1/2Tbs of guano...

Hey all I could use some help with one of my plants. 5gal living soil, 3x3 w/ 600w hps @22", temp 62-80f, humidity 40-55%, water w/ RO recharge, mammoth p, aerated teas, and occasional kelp meal. I believe I added too much phosphorus, and I'm concerned this is a phosphorus lockout issue. I'm...

Update: All three plants seem to be improving tremendously since flushing with 1gal of citric acid+potassium bicarbonate and 1gal of ACT+Recharge. I flushed the MAC two days prior to the photos shown below. I used 2/3 gal solution of .5g citric acid and 1.5g Potassium bicarb diluted in 1gal of...

Pro life tips right there lol. We invest too much into these plants to lose them to mites!

Thanks Dirtbag! lol I feel weird saying that now considering what your name means...but I mean it! These online platforms are all I have right now to learn and share information. I am an advocate for open source information sharing, and platforms like this provide a great opportunity for people...

I flushed the lemon OG plant today. It doesn't appear to be as heavily impacted as the MAC seems to be by these apparent nutrient issues. The Lemon OG still has yellowing tips that I read as a zinc deficiency, but I'm starting to question if its actually nutrient burn. The OG also has a very...

Sounds like a very solid cultivar. I've only grown the Lemon OG Kush once, but its density, resistance to pests, and terp profile made me try it one more round. I normally like to try a variety of strains each grow. It's really cool you can follow the terp profile for the PC so closely. I love...

Excellent! Thank you for checking those trichs out and reporting here. As time passes I'm feeling more and more confident I don't have a tent full of eggs. How do you like platinum cookies? I haven't tried durban poison yet, or any of the cookies besides GMO. I was super happy to find the MAC...

We have to work to create the forum we want to part of. I'm interested in learning and helping others learn. This is always done well if we can see eye to eye. I could have panicked at the start of the forum and adamantly claimed I don't have an infestation just to shut the inquiry down. But the...

HiDaze! Thank you for your input. It's great to read that you are finding similarly looking sessile trichomes under your fan leaves. I forgot to check my ppm run off when I flushed my purple punch plant yesterday. I'm going to flush my lemon og tomorrow with 1gal of RO water and .5g of citric...

When you were working with broads and cyclamens did you notice the round abnormalities underneath the leaves like mine have? I'll take a peak at those new growth sites now and look around. Edit: No luck. I looked for as long as my eyes would allow. My eyes are exhausted from using the...

I found an article just now that claims the zinc lockout from excess phosphorus occurs due to a dilution effect. Here's the URL...

My first grow diary on here actually reported an over fertilization of phosphorus...when will I learn!? The time has finally come for me to understand nutrient interactions and base cation saturation. I had to expedite this learning process while trouble shooting this grow, and I am much closer...

This is a fantastic trichome anatomy article. Thank you so much for sharing it! It's actually my first time visiting that website. It seems there are a lot of quality references throughout it. Awesome!! So maybe the maturity of the plant increases the expression of the capitate-sessile...
