Malted barley does more than you think it does
Been top-dressing my no-till beds with malted barley flour for about two years now and honestly it changed how my plants move through veg. You just dust a thin layer on the soil…
Anyone switched from single-bucket DWC to RDWC?
Running four individual DWC buckets right now in my 4x4 and the pH and EC management is starting to wear on me. Each bucket drifts at its own pace, so i'm checking four separate…
Week 6 scrog update, net is finally filling in
Flipped to 12/12 ten days ago and the stretch is doing exactly what i wanted. Running a 90x90cm net at about 40cm above the canopy and i'm sitting at roughly 70% fill right now.…

Week 5 yellowing, N deficiency or just natural fade?
Running a soil grow, week 5 of flower, and the lower and middle fan leaves are starting to yellow and drop. Not super dramatic, but noticeable. I mixed my own base nutrients this…
one plant trained wide beats two plants tall
running a 2x2 with two plants used to stress me out every run. competing canopies, uneven light, and double the smell. cut it to one plant, trained it hard with lst, and the…

Been doing mason jars for so long i dont know anything different. Burp twice a day for two weeks, done. Works. But i keep seeing grove bags come up and people swear by them, so…
Scrog update, net is about 70% full
Dropped the net at day 21 from flip and the canopy is really starting to lock in. Running a 90x90cm tent with a single mainlined plant, eight main colas trained out to fill the…
san fernando valley og, late summer run
ran sfv og this season, popped four cuts from a clone i've been keeping since around 2018. finished outdoor around mid-october here in the central valley. pulled close to three…
run one plant tall, not two plants wide
been dialing in a 2x2 for a while now. biggest lesson: one plant trained vertical takes up less floor space and makes smell control way easier than running two or three plants…
Aloe vera powder changed how I water in veg
Been using dried aloe vera powder in my watering can for about two years now and i honestly don't think i could go back. A quarter teaspoon per gallon, mixed into room temp water…
Late flower humidity targets before the rains hit
If you are pushing into September outdoors and your buds are stacking up, this is the window where mold wins or you do. The target i shoot for is 45 to 50 percent RH during the…
Week 5 yellowing, N def or just natural fade?
Running a photo run right now, week 5 of flower, and i'm starting to see yellowing creep up from the lower fan leaves. Not dramatic, just the older stuff going pale and dropping.…
What are you running outside this season and why

Stop buying bottled nutes, mix your own for pennies
Been mixing my own base nutrients from raw salts for about three years now and the savings are genuinely absurd. A 25 lb bag of calcium nitrate runs me around $25 and covers…
New growers, get a decent pH meter before anything else
If I could go back and tell myself one thing before my first grow, it would be this: pH matters more than almost any product you can buy. I see so many beginners blaming genetics…
