:D Gotta ask....What does liquid worm poo do for the plants?
Well....so far....you've proven EWC (earth worm castings) can be used in coco (plant 'A') succesfully....
How often are you watering plants 'A' and 'B' (the coco plants)?

Lol...I cannot tell the difference between those plants....course that has a lot to do with that green thumb you're pimpin' :wink:

Thanks for the update SS_OG....lookin' good! :wave:

The worm poo or worm castings are a good source of organic Potassium and trace elements. It also stimulates microbiological activity...

Actually Plant A is the one fed only on commercial nutes... i water the coco every day and the soil one every 2 days.

Thanks mate :sasmokin:

B: 25mls Monstabud, 10mls Seasol, 1tsp mollasses, 4mls Cannazym

Hey guys, :wave:

Yeah lovin how this grow is going. Its defo the best i have done, must be learning or sometin... :D

I think the biggest difference from past grows is the inclusion of dolomite lime in the medium... works very well.

Cheers VT, Gauismarius and EddieShoestring. Not too long to go now... :yummy:

Awesome thread Silver Surfer. You got em all looking lovely. If they all turn out the same How would you choose which method to go with? I wonder if there is going to be a signifigant differnce in taste. Thanx for doing this, Cheers

Week 6

Week 6

Hello again. Week 6. My time flies...

Well still nothing really in it. Plants all happy n healthy.

I have slightly lowered the nutes this week just to be on safe side.

A. 10mls each A+B, 4 mls Cannazym.

She looks way bigger than her sisters but is just the angle.




B. 15mls Monstabud, 5mls Seasol, 5mls bat guano, 4mls Cannazym





C. 10mls bat guano, 10mls Monstabud






Heres the pics of the clones i have going in LC's soiless #1.

This lady is fed mostly on plant B's schedule. She has stretched way more and is more lush looking. I think this must be due to N in the mostabud...?






This is the girl fed on plant C's schedule. Buds have formed faster and bigger than her sis but overall size of the plant is considerably smaller. I have started giving her some of the Nefarious to help her on her way. She is still being fed mostly bat guano though.

Hey Misfit and Caligrown :wave:

Yeah the smoke report should be good. I am using a fair bit of nutes but the nefarious doesnt cause a salt buildup and neither do the organics so its good for the coco. Plus A+B drink lots.

The bat guano is working in the coco which is nice to see.

The coir i have used is recylced in A+B. I have bought 3 types of coir, 2 from blocks (brunnings and another whos name escapes me. Its in pic on page1) and other came in a plain bag from growshop.
