Veg box with the UFC, INDI KUSH, GOO & NYCD. Really pumped about these
I guess organics would be good for a hand-waterer like me? I've been living the idea of it but it sounds so damn complicated, compared to how easy a dwc was for me. Let's get this done, every Monday I will buy an ingredient to build an organic soil that I will not have anymore problems in. @BlackSheepOG @rmoltis are you guys using a pretty easy recipe? I mean, soil is supposed to be easy, compared to hempy-buckets. But I have to have an opposite mind-fuck and have no problems in a single dwc bucket, and lock up or burn out plants in soil containers...
But back to the organic recipe? I'm gonna need roughly 30 gallons of soil to keep 18 plants in flower, and all my clones in cups.
What and how much do I need as a base?
I started a compost pile but it is infested with bugs. I put some worms in there, and found some, what looked like, little tiny red worms, but they are little red larvae or maggot of some sort, so I don't think I will be using it anytime soon. And I mean infested...
Sounds pretty easy... I'm gonna have to look up some recipes, make sure I wanna do this.I don't have a custom soil recipe.
I use roots organic 707, last round I used their organic potting soil. Both good so far. I've noticed the 707 is a little hotter but works great.
I also use earth juice organic bottled nutrients+microbes. I aerate the nutrients to raise ph as well as getting the added microbes to populate the feed.
The whole process is very simple.
It's basically a matter of mixing nutrients, letting sit in a jug aerating for days (depending on amount). Then watering/feeding the plants when they dry out every 2-3days. It's so simple it's crazy.
If you aren't to far away, I got it premixed with mycro packs in it and all ready to goSounds pretty easy... I'm gonna have to look up some recipes, make sure I wanna do this.
I just can't keep having these problems they are killing me in flower... everything could be sooo much better...
I'm in northern kentucky, about 15-20 minutes from Cincinnati... how far out are ya from me? LolIf you aren't to far away, I got it premixed with mycro packs in it and all ready to go

Oh my God, I am SO sorry. Big hugs for you and your wife.So.... the wife has to have surgery.. we had another miscarriage... the surgery is to take it out and try and repair what they think is causing the miscarriage. If things go bad it could mean they have to take out everything (hysterectomy).
My heart hurts, my brain is depressed, I'm out of homegrown, and I don't want to work.
Life feels terrible.. but I know deep down it could be worse.
On the other hand I think my soil's ph is finally coming up. I should know by next week if it is up to a satisfactory level. I will be able to tell in my weekly perpetual grow.

there are lots of things that are normal in compost mate, check out Cornells resources on composting and dont worry too much. You might try adding fungus like Stropharia to your compost piles, these not only taste great, but they trap root knot nematodes, or Beauveria Bassiana is a wide ranging entomopathogenic fungi that controls many grubs and common leaf pests also, Of course beneficial nematodes will also help rid you of ants and other bugs, but the biggest thing is to compost properly to begin with, limit the inputs so you know you are aiming at the 24:1 C/N ratio ideal for short day crops like MJ and turn it etc, make sure its the right moisture and O2/ CO2 level before you use it, preferably get it under a microscope and know the biology is right. if not get it tested for biology not NPK.I guess organics would be good for a hand-waterer like me?
