If you need anything mate drop me a line.fibrosux wrote: ↑Tue Feb 16, 2021 5:48 pmI have 4 seedlings ready and need to sort my soil out for this.
I have about 40 litres used up soil and half a bag of fresh virgin biobizz allmix.
I'm planning on buying the following from @GHO's site:
10g Broad spectrum microbiome
1kg gypsum
1kg alfalpha meal
1kg greensand
8l worm castings
I already have all the biobizz nutes and activators, I'm hoping not to need the nutes though.
Should this do the trick or do I need anything else?

Re: Green Hand Organic Grow Off!
Loving life in the GHO mix over in the 55L pot. I am hoping each one of those colas, slowly filling out into one big wizard, like a load of big chonky chongers




As for the Blue Forest Berry, she has spread her roots right out into this mix and loving it also. She has started stretching a little.
I have kept pretty much up to my watering regime. Some days I have bits of water left over in sprayers and jugs so I just use up what I have got. So I don't religiously stick to the regime. Just refer to it whenever I make up a watering.

Re: Green Hand Organic Grow Off!
Well I had my 1st GHO chop this evening, I have had a small tester already, she is absolutely lovely
Although I have had a tolerance break, this weed seems very strong but the frosting of trichomes was lovely




One thing for certain is I have been sleeping better

Re: Green Hand Organic Grow Off!
ALl in your own time. Stay with what you know and are comfortable with until you feel it necessary. I never look back now, very glad I did.

Re: Green Hand Organic Grow Off!
All my girls are very happy in the garden right now. Also it is walming up a little where I live so all good. Bring on Spring!

Some crazy stoner picture, thought I could sneak that in. Look's like my eyes after the Sweet Cheese Auto (that is some strong shizzle dizzle)

Now down and almost dry enough to finish trimming :-)

But finally my Rainbow Candy in the 55L pot. Loving this strain. Would you believe it, Easter Sunday this is due to come down. Must be a good sign?
which brings me up to 12 weeks flowering!!!! She is growing slowly but surely mind. 8-10 weeks Growers Choice states it can flower to but can be taken to 12. So that is what I will do, as long as I can make my Auto's last me that long
The 55L pot has a top up watering every few days, 2-5L of plain water, then gets topped up with my sprayer2-3 times per day.
The Blue Forest Berry has 1.5L watering can every other day and the sprayer in between.
Happy Days.

Re: Green Hand Organic Grow Off!
We've all been there mate. Nothing wrong with governing your spending based on your free funds. Besides, it's good to use up what you have in stock. Seems a shame to waste itFX wrote:It's something I will do but i had to buy a new light so couldn't really afford the stuff I would need for living soil as well

Re: Green Hand Organic Grow Off!
Yeah, it's all organic anyhow, I'll do living soil when I can afford to do it properly
If I keep the old soil to use, what is the best way to store it? or is it not worth it?

Re: Green Hand Organic Grow Off!
Tbh mate I'd start over, simply because you know exactly what's in it then. No residues and you know it's been done properly. Everything in a living soil mix is measured and there for a reason. I doubt it would be too much hassle but if you're going to do it buddy, might as well do it properly.FX wrote:Yeah, it's all organic anyhow, I'll do living soil when I can afford to do it properly

Re: Green Hand Organic Grow Off!
Morning troops got in and took a few more pics for you all there. The girls look like they are loving life 10 days into flower and starting to stretch it out a little. Another few weeks and they should start focusing on flowering. Adding the seabird guano into the feed this week

Re: Green Hand Organic Grow Off!
I failed to germinate the planned seeds for this so will re formulate a plan but I'm still in it. May end up being more mature plants then planned
