Dirtbags Do-over... 🤪 Back to Organic!

[SacredTreeOrganicFarms]

I used a high thc hash oil. 12 grams per cup of MCT oil and a tbsp of sunflower lecithin gives me roughly 35mg capsules.
I havent made them with plant matter in forever.



I dont cook it. I didnt feel the need to since im also supplementing feeding with Earth juice. The actual amount of dry organic nutrients i mixed in was relatively small. If i was doing a water only grow with heavily ammended soil id probably let it sit for a few days up to maybe a couple weeks after mixing before i planted into it. But i dont really think extended "cooks" are all that necessary. Get it wet, give it a little time for bacterial and fungal colonies to establish and start breaking down some food so your plant has something to eat when you plant it.

Nice okay, yeah the super soil is veryyyyy tricky tbh. Organic soil is still an option without the preamendmants.

Agree. Partly why im not doing a supersoil. I feel that the hybrid approach of using a lighly fertilized soil mix, and organic "liquid sluge" bottled nutrients gives me a bit more ability to tailor the feed to what the plant needs.

More water is more o2. Yes they perform respiration day and night but at extremely different rates.

Sure, but what I meant was that more water causes swollen vacuoles which gives plant cells their turgidity.

but you are totally right that the plants have no reason to hold their leaves out all turgid when they are not catching sunlight and that the change in turgidity also relates to the daily changes in the stomata, if I remember correctly.

100% and thinking about that it could have to do with root pressure? Bit more water trapped in the leaves

Never thought out that? That’s a good point! The super soil is seeming to be just a cheap option

I ran well-amended ocean forest/happy frog with regular top dresses for my grow that’s entering late flower now, and two of four outran my amendment schedule and became deficient, forcing me to switch over to chelated nutes because I didn’t have time to let organic matter digest and become available.

With a strain/cut that you know the feeding habit of I can see dry-amended water-only organic being the easiest way by far. With any variety in the garden though, I wish I’d have had liquid organics I could tailor to each plant.

Yeah I had lots of similar mishaps with soil fed in containers. Now I like to always have a bottle of liquid organics on the shelf just incase I need it.

This is seconds after lights on... "Organic soil".

They start praying a little before lights on sometimes. Their circadian rhythm predicts it. I have some night vision time lapse of my plants doing it. The droop starts before lights off too.

Interesting... Fast learners then... Was only the second time they'd been in the dark... Just flipped them, and I veg for 24hrs.

Well then maybe they're still in the 24hr mode...you left out important info! Lol

Maybe... I'll keep checking.
My other flower room was not noticably drooping before lights out either though... There are plants in three different stages in there... I have noticed a little at lights on... But nothing like what Dirtbag has shown.

So i had plants all over the damn place this summer and totally forgot about 4 of them i stashed in the swamp. Looks like the water came up

Still salvageable?

Is that what they call organic dry and cure? Lmao... oh I could not resist.

Just a water cure. Wonder if all the chlorophyll leached out.

Looks that way... sun dried cannabis... wonder if its like the tomatoes.

Who stole your girls and planted cattails in their place???

Maybe @Dirtbag needs to evaluate and let us know.
