If I ever was to do large scale Indoor again I'd do cubes on slabs drain to waste with conventional nutrients and a few different foliars ...

Have you tried this and found it had similar end results as organics? I've had really good synthetic buds, but lately mine have been edging them out flavor wise.

Ecosystems on edge -Earthworm Invaders

apparently the wrong worm can bring big imbalance to your soil ecosystem

Fuck worms, how am I going to eradicate them from my soil

I can't afford to have this happen

No the results aren't the same but honestly flavor is all about how much quantifiable terpenes and In what combination those terpenes exist ... Cuts with real FLAVOR. Like sour D , og kush, tangie ... You can feed them whatever and as long as they're pumped up and metabolically processing what you're throwing at them ...

The reality of it is that if I was doing 100 lights that small difference even if it exists wouldn't matter enough to me to bring in soil or coco and deal with all that ...

Say you didn't have dol lime in your soil mix... would there still be a risk for introducing red wigglers and nightcrawlers? I was planning on adding a pound to the yard of soil I'm mixing this week but now Lapides is sketching me out with this worm talk
yes your good man.dont worry

Your reverse trolling is awesome

So last night I tried everything heady blunts suggested.

Water just runs right off the top of the cement. I even took a hammer and chisel and carved a wedge into it. I poured slightly acidic water into the wedge hoping maybe that would break things up. I went in this AM, no change at all. It's like fossilized.

I called one of my local colleges and spoke to their agricultural department to see if they've heard anything like this. They said it IS possible that when the worms die, an anaerobic condition can develop, which could then lead to an extreme hardening of the soil. They confirmed my fears that once this hardening occurs, it cannot be undone. I asked about the lime and other minerals, and they said the minerals are not what caused it.

hey Lap, really sorry for you buddy!

such an unreal thing to happen to anyone, how could you possible knew... dont get to angry with yourself, plus even more if the ag dept say the minerals had nothing to do with.

Look at the bright side of things.... new soil, new genetics, maybe even some upgrade in the horizon?!? ;)

and last but not least, some pics of those concrete blocks will be nice

My team will get with your team later today about some new products we're coming out with. The crete buster is used as a one time root drench, slow willie is a biweekly foliar, and willie shield should be used with all feedings.

Alright, I took some pics last night. Strangely, there are still a few worms that are alive and trying to get somewhere more comfortable.

In both pics you can see the hardened cement, in the first pic, you can see how things are not quite hard, but on their way -






It's fucked up, but there is nothing to save this. I really am embarrassed that I had such a cocky attitude this whole time and THIS is how it ends. What a failure.
