Living Organics Greenhouse And Indoor

[Bobby1220]

Hey all!
Excited to be able to show my girls to a bunch of fellow cultivators

-Indoor setup:
4x4 apollo horticulture grow tent
400 watt ballast
Hortilux super HPS bulb

-Outdoor greenhouse setup:
10x8 abba patio greenhouse

I am currently growing 3 strains:
Blue dream
G-13 labs "cheese"
Citron

SOIL SETUP
-fox farms ocean forest
-alfalfa meal
-kelp meal
-azomite
-granular humic acids
-neem seed meal
-insect frass
-Bokashi
The ammendments I use are mostly "down to earth" brand and I swear by them.
Once the plants are situated and happy then comes the compost teas. Of which I use 5 different recipes depending on necessity and plant progression.

Ill link the actual tea recipes later on tonight. As for now, photos inbound

Healthy! Just ordered a hortilux 600w how do you find em?

Oh I love hortilux! And they last a while. Been growing constantly with my latest one for the last year and a half. I think 6 flowering cycles its been through And it still has great light output.
Id like to make the switch to LED but I have no experience in it.

FEEDING AND TEA
I use a few different methoods as far as feeding my plants but the soil composition is key. If the soil has everything the plant already needs, then the soil and microbes therein only need activation. Ive found with living organics that if the soil is lacking on protozoa then the plant has a harder time breaking down granular ammendments as it cant uptake the solid. There is a fantastic product called "insect frass" and it is literally just bug poop loaded with protozoa. The protozoa digest and breakdown the solids and then they, in turn poop them out into digestable food for the plant.

I brew all my teas in a 5 gal home depot bucket with two, four inch cylindrical air stones.
