I am having real troubles in getting all the ingredients for the super soil here in uk.

What do you think the logistics are to shipping perhaps a 50lt bag of Supersoil over to UK are? Is it at all poss or do you think it would be a customs nightmare?

I need to give this stuff a whirl. THe idea of not mixing up a heap of feeds every bloody day sounds so appealing. Not to mention the taste improvements.

Glad to hear it. I've got the mix written down and stashed. I'm either going to spain this summer or big a shit load of land. Either way, I'll be planting a nice crop for next spring. Looking forward to growing outdoors. If I stay in the area i'm at now. I plan on using this mix with all my plants. I'm at the point as you now. I hate having all this gear and all these fuckin bottles of nutz. lolol

I'm going to try the mix outdoors and see for myself, but I know from you and other threads like Sub's. This stuff really works well. Can't wait to grow some monster's. Going to try for a couple like "Tom Hills" monster's he grew. Man, where those plants hugh.

Anyways, nice thread and info like always. check your pm, you got one in your box about something else.
Take care,
BG

Nice shit TK, Since you have grown in both soil and hydro is it really a big differnce in taste? i heard hydro has less taste

Different, not sure about one being better or worse for me but the masses seem to really like the organic soil better...I still think I grow a faster, more dense, more potent bud in hydro but you do sacrafice a little in taste and ease...

I am not saying growin in soil in general is this successful, because I have had some botched atteptes in the past but this mix seems to be fuckin dead on for what i am doin right now...

I may run Moonshinemans mix also just to see the difference...

TK, since you are PH'ing the water, are you using white vinegar for the down and baking soda for the up? It's always been my understanding that 2 TBS of dolomite lime/gal. should buffer the soil so you don't have to PH the water but I have always wondered if it was sufficient.

Yo TK.. Glad to see u made the conversion.. I love soil .. Have my own organic recipe thats a spin off of some old heads and man that shit rocks.... No BS man my Organic OG Kush buds kick the shit out of anything else I have ever seen in hydro round my parts.. Even the local heads and Farmers say so and now they are converting to soil and they all want my recipe... LOL.. Organics kick ass man... Rock that shit G....

Soil is so easy and forgiving and low maintenence...

Those Betties are looking good. Glad to see they germed for you. They had some age on them. Remember, if you place them outside. They can get big on you. Chucky, had his girl pushing 15 feet, before the gail force winds broke her in half.

Wally, ran a bunch down under also. Most of his where between 8-9 feet, so they can get big on you. I know you know what your doing, just got to remind you. lolol

Good luck and take some pictures if you do run that girl outside.
later,
BG
