when people post yeild in terms of weight per sized pot i never really know what that means. it could be any number of those in a canopy depending on a bunch of factors. am i missing some standard that everyone else understands. when i measure yeild i find it much more easily understood when stated in weight per watt or canopy area. grams per watt or meter square.

@ CC, How do you get your plants to break it down (the guano) so fast ?
enzymes?

because I had always read that it took several months for the guano's to break down enough for the plant to be able to use it.

Also can you give us your substrate details? 'cause that Og is unusually fat, I like it! great job CC,
Mack.

Hey, all.
Funny thing happens to me nowadays when I get ready to tell icmag about my organic methods... I freeze up, because there are so many people who seek to cause in-compassionate harm to others who employ methods differing from their own (same attitude you get from some religious folks, you know?). Some call these members the Organic Nazis. :) hehehe While not actually Nationalist/Socialist in their growing opinions, they are often quite rude, IMO. I find this oppressive, and is one of the reason myself, and many other long-standing members don't want to speak up around here anymore. If I tell you my method of top feeding, there will inevitably be trolls saying that's not organic, or this cannot work and I'm cheating somehow with other nutrients, or whatever. Just ego issues, really, since their organic methods aren't yielding enough to even share pictures of their buds, believe me, we've TRIED to get them to post up evidence that they have a right to be so dismissive of others' organic methods, since their buds are so impressive... But... I have still not yet seen evidence that their methods yield large amounts of tasty, awesome-burning marihuana indoors, with 100% organic material. To each, his own... if only everyone in the conversation could think this way. Respectful talks are so much better than what I'm USED to experiencing with that camp. Anyhow... that's just a little back story about why I've been laying low (as well as other early members of icmag) as far as teaching/participating here.

I'll tell ya's what... I'll go down and take a few shots of plants in various stages... all in 3 gallon pots, in an organic potting mix, top-fed with everything from bat and seabird guanos, to crabshell, fish meal, seaweed, etc, etc, etc... It's applied directly to the surface of the soil and watered, with certain watering methods used to ensure the top-fed material is made available to the roots. I'll be back soon with a few shots, so y'all can get an idea of how I do what I do. WARNING! The fact is... methodology is important, but there's something much more important if you want to really kick ass... COMPASSION FOR OTHERS... including your plants. Times spent just staring into the garden, no words, just stare and "listen" to what each individual lady is asking for... then do that to the best of your ability. But now I'm getting into the real stuff, and many people don't accept these things as real, which I understand. :) That's cool. :)

I'll go do some quick shots with my cellphone... Don't expect photographic masterpieces today. ;) I'm not digging out my camera gear. :)

I noticed I have not put any pics in this thread although I thought for sure I had. This is the True OG cut. She went 70 days and yielded 10 ounces from 3.5 gallons of coco dtw. I won't lie, she was vegged a long time, maybe 90 days or so, don't really remember an exact number.

This was my first grow with her and I thought a 54" tomato cage would support her lol. I learned a bit on this grow.

Here are three ladies I took out into the full glory of God's Sun!

As gorgeous as they are in the indoor garden, they are soooo much more beautiful in natural sunlight. For a moment there, the moment you're witnessing here in these pictures, these plants were TRULY organic... fed by the Sun. ;)

So here ya go...

Forgive the flower bed mess... We have free range ducks, chickens, and goats. Although the goats are only free range when they get past my fencing... Bastards! :( :) They ate the shit outta my new apple trees, my prized lilacs, peach trees, plums, etc. etc. etc. They are on my shit list right now. A real test of my patience and compassion! Grrrr! :)

BTW... this is about 30 watts/sq foot.

As for methods, I am watching 3 home-schooled kids today... and they are getting up now, so fat chance I'll be able to get to that any time during the daylight hours! hehehe But if there's interest, I will describe my most recent organic top-feeding method and how it works. ;)

Bring it on CC, I've been lovin' the 13-12-2 Seabird top dress method! I'm getting my fattest yields ever indoors, I've only tweaked it a tad since but thanks for the blueprint to some super easy growing, funny thing is I grew my Larry cut I had back in '10 - '12 very similar a few times by top dressing 12-11-2 PSG from Sunleaves and she yielded huge ....seeing your Organic SFV thread after I picked up the cut was a nice dose of deja vu that I needed to get back on track!

BTW sick pics bro!

Hey brotha man, haters gonna hate! Especially when ya doing things right.

Im definitely interested. I currently make my own soil mix thats water only, but have been wanting to pull back on blood/fish bone meals so i can have better application at times they need it and ultimately shooting for a cleaner smoke as we all are. In beds that get re-amended each run the N will be the tough part (prob still need to til in some blood meal off the bat) but sounds like top feeding with guanos could pick up a chunk of the burden.

I definitely mix in chitins, kelp meals, etc but those are general rates and generally considered part of the base amend. Tough ones are early N, and use of all the fish bone meal. I haven't been using guanos directly in the mix due to still working meal rates, but do use them in teas. Have you found direct top feeding that much more effective than teas? I always dilute teas but usually don't see too much change even after feed teas so i always question availability and dilution rates.

Potted gals generally smoke better cuz they eat up all their shit faster, but even so I'm getting an oz/g of soil in potted gals but usually never flower in anything under 5's. Bed wise I'm betting each plant gets about what you are using- 3g's or so.

Definitely interested though, as Im always trying to improve quality a variable or two at a time. And if I could eliminate some reliance on blind absorption with meals that would be great.

Symbiote linked me your old thread, so interested to see how things have changed for ya as it sounds like you're getting that dialed.

I'll take a moment here... Top-feeding IS like making a tea, each time you water. ;) But there ARE methods to make sure this works right, and the methods are very obvious and simple. :)

My whole thing with organics is... They are still nutrients. If the soil is overloaded with so much organic material that there's still lots in the medium at harvest time... well... even though the organic nazis say the nutrients available won't effect the quality of the smoke, I call error! Some of the most disgusting weed I've ever smoked was NEVER fed during the lifetime of the plant, because the grower used such rich soil. My method depends on an organic soil that runs out of most of the rich nutrient present in the soil BEFORE harvest. This allows me to simply feed the biology in the soil from the top, control which NPK value is available to the plant, AND VERY IMPORTANTLY... to deny organic matter for several weeks as the plant begins to slowly yellow up and allow ONLY the actual aromas and flavors the plant brings to the table... NOT the plant's smell AND that "something else" in the scent. That something else is almost always a sign that you are gonna harvest harsh smoke. Gotta run... later. cc

Hey CC, I know you're a big fan of silica, wondering what you're using these days, Azomite or organic silica powder?
I would think you would pre-mix that into your soil, what say? :)
