I have been reading that one as well for the past couple days actuallyFor sure man…I think you should also check this thread…dude kills it in living soil.
CoolI have been reading that one as well for the past couple days actually
I live in central Minnesota so I’m kinda limited on time for outdoor so I’m trying my hand at indoorsCool. I don’t have anything indoors at the moment, but my next go is gonna be living soil…next level organic.
You're not much further north than me lattitude wise. I bet you could pull it off.I live in central Minnesota so I’m kinda limited on time for outdoor so I’m trying my hand at indoors
I got a couple going outside just we have had a lot of rain and not much sun that past few weeksYou're not much further north than me lattitude wise. I bet you could pull it off
I can throw a tarp over them. I have a wood pallet fence wrapped in chicken wire to keep critters out and I plan on adding a roof eventually and makeing more of a little grow building as time goes on onCam you move them under some type of cover when needed?
Please do your research before getting into PGRs. Hundreds of thousands used Mammoth P and spoke of it from the rooftops, but these same types would often put PGRs down. Fast forward a few years and it was always all PGRs in the formula, not a single percent improvement was able to be shown from that particular microbe blend alone. Likely also a statement on the abundance of P in our systems for cultivating cannabis in there.thanks I will give this a try
Mammoth P is not PGR its PGPMs, which they can produce some PGR but thats not their job and PGR are not in the formula. Their job is to process nutrients for the plants, it just so happens that some of them release phytohormones. Im with you with the using too much is bad, like with anything else. You dont wanna be hormonating your plant every watering unless its very diluted, usually bottles tell you how much and how often to use without problems. Cant speak for mammoth, Ive seen them around but never tried it but I use concentrated cold pressed kelp extract once per month. Could be the case that some sellers dont care and tell you to use it so often that you will start seeing problems but that has not happened to me yet.Please do your research before getting into PGRs.

In the west PGRs are defined as anything that modulates the plant's growth, making all phytohormones regardless of source de facto PGRs under places like the US's EPA. Typically you'll see the lack of growth claims on these bottles but there are plenty going under the radar/skirting being classified.
There is nothing wrong with steering with hormones if done in proper ratios and done in intermittent, discrete applications with you closing your loop and recovering excess. DM me if you want to talk about hormone ratios or recovery methods. For a public facing comment, I can say that this is the reason I recommended GrowWithGrease. Not only do they represent the current fringes of the forefront of living web/trichome science but they are pretty much the categorical leader in steering with hormones, although that is my interpretation and I am sure they cannot legally say as such due to the broad definition of the EPA which regulates them, presuming they made such a claim which they do not.
As I said that one is an example, that one is for the first 3 weeks of veg which could indicate that they increased the auxin ratio so the plant roots faster. Search for one that is not exclusively for veg and use once per month or so.thanks I will give this a try
Youre right, by itself it helps with potassium but its not gonna get to a ratio where its on pair with N and P with his ammendments. I use way too many probably, so in the end NPK balances out but the most K ammendment heavy that I use is palm tree ash. I also supplement potassium silicate but since you cant use much I dont think that counts.Kelp is always a good addition. It has many benefits but I don't think it's necessarily a good stand alone source of potassium. You'll also need a sulfur source for cannabinoid and terpene synthesis.
As @ATLien415 mentioned a couple of good microbial inoculant products. Bokashi is a good source of PGPRs. I like All Seasons Bokashi. One product that I've used for a few years is a sister product of Great White. It's made by the same company. They just boosted it with seaweed extract and humic acids. You can get it in small packets at Walmart for under $5. I first bought it on a lark a few years ago. I've used it alongside other popular stuff and it always seems to outperform. Just mix it in water at half strength mixed with some molasses twice a month. That's usually enough. I like to let it brew overnight to get a good start on microbial growth. This year I'm premixing it in my soil to see how that works. Along with the LABs and Rhodobacter in the Bokashi it should be interesting.
When you have a healthy, thriving rhizobiome, you have a very efficient system setup. Water and nutrient needs are reduced. TBH any decent product is worth the investment.
