btw i hang in my flower room.

Hmmm C-vault - never heard of it - cool.

You hang the flowers to dry in the flower room with the lights on? I thought light was unwanted during drying/curing. Have you tested the "difference"?

One love

i noticed no difference what so ever as long as the light doesnt shine directly on them. if it does that portion dries way to fast. the temps and humidity work real well.

Cvaults are nice - I ordered a medium one for 25$ on amazon to try it out. The larger ones are really pricey - where do you get yours if I may ask.

Good info on the dry method - glad my recent harvest isnt drying in direct light.

Do you send in beans for the server fund?

hey bro, if you dont mind me askin. do u keep your g.o. nutes in the fridge? some of my bottles have gotten supper crusty around the lid and i thought this might be a sign of it going bad. also, does the black diamond kill microlife? i use the go box(except the black diamond) in addition to compost teas. thanx in advance

also, with those temp/humiditiy 4 drying, how many days are ya lookin at? i run very similiar numbers in a dark room and it takes 8 or 9 for me. i had to get a humidifier to keep that humiditiy level ladt summer. this summer, its catchin dust.

yes,once you break the seal you absolutely should store GO nutes in the fridge.all of the general organics nutes are in a fermented molasses base and they will happily start fermenting again if kept too warm.the bottle gunk is from the molasses base,but you should keep your bottles wiped clean anyway...
the diamond black is basically useless if you grow in anything vaguely resembling soil,personally i dont bother with the squid emulsion myself but it is good in compost teas.

heres how to tell if GO nutes have gone bad...if you notice any micro nute deficiencies showing up out of the blue somethings gone bad,if you start seeing anything that looks like pH imbalance,the nutes have gone bad,so far i have only had the biothrive bloom and a bottle of cal/mag go bad on me in 3 years of using them..

as long as its dark that should be fine but the fridge temps really are best for long term so for sure any gallon bottles should be stored in the fridge,but for quarts that should be fine.
like almost any nutes,light is one of the worst things for them,high temps being next.your grow room is the worst possible spot to store nutes aside from directly in the sun

thanks. i grow a similiar style and; until now, have never had the oppurtunity to talk shop with like-minded(let alone more experienced people). i have many questions and would love to pick your brain, but ill keep it to a question or two a week.
and to clarify, by similiar i just mean i grow organic, soil,similar environ.. i cant be doin things too similarly if the gg example you gave is about average for you. 3 gal, 3 week veg., about 4 ea.. im lookin at 5 gal. 7 week veg(from seed), and lucky to avg. 2-3 z. so yeah, i got a lot of room for improvement.

Phillthy, have you ran across any strains, specifically OG's that have a very earthy taste almost like soil/dirt, in a nice way tho... with a smell that doesn't quite match up with the taste? smell is kind of a bit sweeter makes you think it will taste sweet not soily lol but like I said the taste is not bad.

not yet. sfv adn true are in flower now. havent sampled them yet. the larry s1 i have is the best lemon fuel i have seen yet. light years ahead of anything else i have tried. 5k is very nice too. louis was nice. none were earthy though. ghost was probably the closest.

If you don't love SFV you didn't nail :) I know you will though

She is tricky though..... The only one Idk how she stacks to is the 5k.... But the SFV done right reminded me of that old school cali OG, the stuff that used to get sent out back in the day and sold at 500$ oz type stuff


Deff curious to hear your True opinion too, I'll be smoking her in 3 or so weeks myself
