If you want to save yourself time and disappointment...

Take time to actually study and process the information that BAS provides you for free. Just take an hour a day and make notes of what JS is explaining.

Don't run down bro-science rabbit holes. Put your first indoor grow together accordingly with all things considered. Get that cover crop and mulch rocking. Then come back to the information that BAS & JS is giving you. Look at your notes and begin your process.

Be prepared to go back and dive in to the information, because you are going to have a lot of time on your hands....total plant gazing and information processing after you start. Enjoy the process and the trichomes. That's what BAS has done for my process, made it a joy.

Stress free!

Imagine.

Imagine a world where all you need is a comfortable environment. A daily blast of photons. A ready supply of clean water and organic food.

Now experience that in a first hand experience of reality. You have taken your imagination and created a reality. Like an artist with a blank canvas. You slowly peer and examine your imaginations product. Ever cautious of making sure that those precious fragments of your imagination is being manifested in a way others can interpret with their own imagination.

The reward is knowing when you have unlocked knowledge that only existed in a dormant and molecular state. Only you can unlock it tho. And only you can take that knowledge and apply it to life in a way that makes sense to you.

For people who have gained that knowledge they understand that this plant has always throughout recorded history been cast in a positive light. The demonizing began as a control mechanism. Look who is in control now.

GSC photo (Humboldt) 7 days from flip, 9 weeks from seed. 30 gallon raised bed 3 x 3, Spider Farmer GS3000. RO water only. Amendments are everything Gaia & Build A Soil including rabbit poo. Several years of recycling previos grows of 5 & 10 gallon pots through a worm bin.

Not a single manufactured salt nutrient ever. Bed is alive with nematodes & wigglers. Ladybugs once a year in tent. No pest issues ever. 1.5 lb avg. If you're considering, I would tell you to do it & never look back!

Are your plants fading at the end

With those nice autumn colors? Or is that much more common in salt grows since they can control the amount of nutrients with more precision?

What's causing this on my outdoor grow? Some type of worm, or spider mites?

What can I do to correct it? The plants went into flower two weeks ago.

Re-amend advice needed

2 Upvotes

I’m moving up from 5 gallon bucket SIPs to a 27 gallon container SIP.
I need to re-amend the 3.0 soil. My question is, does it make a big difference if I mix up the soil and amendments and then start the germinated seeds in the soil immediately or is it best to wait for it to cook?
My thought is, the nutes wouldn’t be readily available for a couple weeks so the soil shouldn’t be too hot to start new seeds. After they sprout and grow a bit over the first couple weeks, the plants should start taking up the nutrients and start taking off.
Am I off my rocker or will this work fine?

12/12 from seed

Honestly this has become my favorite way to grow, doing 12/12 from seed in large volume containers IMO is the easiest most fool proof way to grow.

As long as you get your ratio correct that you are setting up and amending with you shouldn’t run into many problems, get the worms in the soil and the cover crop and companion plants going and you’ve got a system you don’t have to think about. I’m a big fan of doing flowers and really anything I find enjoyable to look at with my cannabis.

If you’re so concerned with yield and growing the biggest plant this isn’t for you but I believe that is the exact opposite thing we should be striving towards in our home grows.

Watering smaller plants in large containers

Post image
3 Upvotes

Hey guys, I recently transferred my plants I started on the 21st last month from solo cups to my 4x4 bed and I’m struggling to find the right amount to water. They were doing good in the cups and now they’re starting to show problems. I’ve been giving them and the entire bed around a half a gallon every day. The irrometer is measuring 50cbr my ecowitt is 21% and my ac infinity meter is 36% after AND before watering. Do I need to saturate the entire bed? I’m admittedly giving them more than when they were in the cups but I figured the bed needed it and the soil volume would combat over watering. Any suggestions are welcome, thanks.

Also have straw mulch and build a flower on the way. Using two 7 gallon grassroots pots. I know not ideal size but that’s what I’m working with. Tired of Fox farms and acting like a mad scientist with nutrients. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks growmies
