????????why do you guys go out and buy all this expensive stuff to grow with??you can just use horse/cow manure and your plants will grow just as good if not better, than all this chemicalized "organic" stuff just my thoughts,and the stuff is free and is organic as organic could be just go ask your local farm owner if you can have some cow patties and 99% of the time he will say go do what you gotta do i use somewhat dry patties but also used fresh ones all depends on how big the plants are .....and for your growing medium go to where the cows are always at and dig up the dirt because it is highly fertalized and its FREE and natural...just dont leave 10 foot holes on his land cuz it can harm the animals... now thats true organic farming agree or dissagree thats up to you but at least i know whats going into my plants thus my body and no it doesnt leave your end product tasting like poo but more of a natural taste that i and many other ppl like..now this is all for outdoor growing, indoors i do not know how it would turn out to be smell and pest wize.this also works wonders with tomatoes and squash:)the only thing i would say thats missing out of the nutes would be phos for flowering but i never had a problem...any comments would be nice but do not bash me for telling of how i do things organically. because everyone has there own way of doing things i just like to save money rather than waste it on unknown products that do work but are not fully organic..and i also understand some ppl dont have acess to farms but if you know of some that have cows please try this method out you wont be dissapointed... i am also new here so someone may have posted something like this so sorry in advance if this was already brought up thanks for reading;...

It's negative 10 degrees outside so I grow indoors until spring. Like you said it would probably stink indoors. I do use almost entirely organic nutrients for my indoor grows that have been proven to be extremely beneficial to marijuana. Not saying it's a bad idea, just not realistic for indoors, and I feel the price I pay for nutes more than pays for itself in what I get in yield. I no longer buy pot.
 
Not everyone has access to the boutniful harvests most of the organic products you mentioned.

or room.

Imagine living in an apartment. Try to make tea there...whooa...smelly.

Might I also mmention that alot of the accelerants and suppliments cannot be replicated in your house.

How the heck am I supposed to get seaweed extracts in my kitchen?

Yucca extract, amino acids, gibberellics ect ect.

Also, it is quite cheaper and time efficiant to buy most of these extra ingrediants.
 
manure all by itself isn't going to get you much. plants do not breakdown manure to a usable compound. this is done by micro organisms, bacteria, and fungi. manure has a very high salt content, not good. it does breakdown over time and become a great food for micro organisms. plants absorb the effluent from the micro organisms that consume the manure. this takes time. organics i buy, are already broken down and ready for the plants to start absorbing the nutrients. i don't live where there are cows or horses anymore. as a kid they were everywhere. now they are housing developments, shopping malls, and businesses.
 
straight answer-

two and a half months ago i was not a gardener

i was a smoker with 0 knowledge of growing

being stoned in a growshop with a pocket full of loot i opted for the slightly more expensive 'organic' labeled products mostly cos the guy said its harder to overfert and the crop generally tastes better.

got stung for a couple of items like ppm reader but im intrested in a one dwc pot in the corner of my room so itll be useful in future

i actually dont care enough about the environment, im sorry to say...

apologies to all the people who actively do your buying our grandkids grankids grandkids a few degrees less heat in which to prepare the great mars expedition. of 2073. heed. care for mars. prevention better than cure.

i went organic cos it sounded easier for a noob to get a good quality tasting harvest.

hope i didnt waste my hard hustled bucks
 
i dont think you can waste any money on mj, even if you spend 500 bucks on one grow and you fail badly, you will have still learned something!!!! but thats just my smoked-up-mind thinking again...
 
Well i had brought some manure at homedepot for $1.50 and have been composting it with veg waste & worm **** in five gallon buckets. Got a house but not enough yard for compost pile. Outside the smell isnt that bad but bring it in and Whew! I also add some ferts to the compost too. Eh i'm just learning but I think it is a cheaper way to get quality dirt but it takes longer.

Please do not take this personally, but you and your mentality is doomed and I will not be a part of it or condone it for that matter.

Good luck.

P.S. if you needed convincing to buy a PPM meeter...your doomed. Even a novice would spend his "hard hustled money" on an important item like that.

I have never said this to anyone on the internet before, especially concerning cannabis cultivation....which is OBVIOUSLY not for everyone.

I hiope your attemps at growing are a colossal failure, and you end up wasting a ton of money trying to make money.

For those of you who care not for the future, our home...MY HOME or the planet...I hope you freeze to death this winter.

Millions of people are going to suffer weather changes soon and I KNOW that WE are responsible.

Sorry to break the rules.

HA!! I just figured out exactly who you are now effen!!<---- shhh..... (it's Al Gore folks)
.. Go hug a tree ya' freakin' looney.. ;)
:rofl:...























.. now don't go gettin' offended.. it was a joke..;)
 
Honestly, I see no problem with taking care of the place.

Now, using a weather climate shift crisis to make money...SHAMEFUL..I HATE Al Gore.

Slob...

Anyhoo, some of the best food regiments can be made with simple household food wastes, but like UMBRA said, the essentials in making this process work for you is the microbes, bacterium, fungus and enzymes that can thrive in compost or manure...or composting manure.

Most of the cultures needed to jump start this method are either only available thruogh a hydro store, nursery or internet.


I use real, whole dead fish in my tea mix.
 
When I was growing 20 years ago, I always used fish emulsion for ferts. I would go on and on about organics to people. One guy decided to try an outdoor grow. So he digs a hole and puts a fish in the hole and planted a seed. Plant grew to a big girl, nobody and i mean nobody could smoke it. it tasted just like a dead fish. he moved away because everybody teased him so much.
 
No need to get all high and mighty cos you live within spittin' distance of cow **** matey.

Organic stuff isnt 'chemicalised' its organic which means not 'chemicalised' and theres not too much cow **** I can scrape off London sidewalks around my way.

So yee haw for you,but we don't all live down on the range,and besides,many folk do use guano just not cow guano.
 
Really?

The native american method didn't work for him huh?



I wanted to just try the fish method (by fish I mean small fish, less than 4") lats grow run and had much success with it. I use in conjunction with both seabird and bat guano (High N in beginning, more P,K in later) leachate, comes in poweder form. I use real bokashi in my tea mix also, I believe this is key. I feed the mix often with pure molasses (only real reason to have it) and have a syphon setup to refill the tea bin with fresh, dechloranated water as you draw from the tea mix.

I incorporate an air pump, circulating pump and an aquarium heater set t around 65f.

I am thinking of bottling this stuff up and selling it.
I will call it "Jesus Juice", because it works miracles for growing.

...not too well for getting children drunk though...

There's a guy who turned worm castings into a business. His friend grew some dank bud and he decided to use the castings juice and bottled it. It figures , he's from NJ. He even uses recycled plastic bottles for his containers. True green entreprenur.

I always use big dead fish in my outdoor grows. Been doing this for more than 30 years... By harvest time there is absolutely no trace of the fish inside the bucket or in the smell or taste of the mj....I wonder what kind of fish your buddy used?
 
funny enuff i think my grows guna be great.

Y O U A R E A G I M P


sorry mate . sad but true.
if i sell one single gram, it will only be becos i got a fresh crop ready to smoke
dont think im in it for money.
if i was would i be growing 10m2 not 1m2
put that in yer high an mighty pipe and smoke it!

your first grow was probly a frickin tulip
 
What's "Y O U A R E A G I M P"?

I have never heard of this product before.

I do recommend the Bokashi though, works great. You can easily make a large batch in 24 hours or less if you have dechlorinated water.

Also, if you are attempting to "grow" microbes I would recommend you let your water sit for a while if you are using straight tap.
