Hello Looking for Organic tea help. I have made an awesome lucerne (alfalfa) tea and now im almost ready to make my Super Tea. My plan is to use the lucerne tea as the base for my solution as i have access to unlimited pidgeon, chicken and Horse Manure, worm castings and am trying to obtain bat and seabird guano. I also make my own potash from burning hardwood. I plan to add molasses to the mix. My tea container holds 150 litres My question is 4 fold: 1) For this project is there such thing as overkill. Should i just add all these together and steep it in the tea or should i add equal parts? 2) should i add the Guano and the potash only whilst using it for flower (which …

This shows how dopey I can be! At four weeks of 24/24 l put a little two light LED (about 100w draw) in my box alongside a 600w. That was a week ago but last night I realised I forgot to put it on a timer . It was on for seven days. The 600w has been on a timer. I'm guessing the plants are wanting to revert to veg but won't be able to as I put a timer in today,but I'm wondering how long it's going to stall things till harvest ? I'm thinking an extra two weeks but will probably loose a bit in yield.the last couple of nights I started to think they'd slowed down a bit ,so there are visible signs of a reaction Big Bud had started to show brown hairs when it shouldn't ,other …

some info & opinion on the use of both from kisorganics.com https://www.kisorganics.com/blogs/news/99806785-peat-vs-coco This can be a hotly debated topic among growers as to what's the best media for growing plants. In this article, I'll weigh in with my opinion on the subject as there are Pros and Cons to both. "Sphagnum" is a genus of approximately 120 different species of mosses known as "peat moss." Sphagnum and the peat formed from it do not decay readily because of the phenolic compounds embedded in the moss's cell walls. Peat moss can also acidify its surroundings by taking up cations, such as calcium, magnesium, and potassium, and releasing hydrogen ions. …

First time post, first time grow! Am setting up a little something something (cupboard, LED, coco) and am wondering if there's anyone from Perth lurking here - and if so, where the good hydroponic shops in town are. Not really too keen on getting everything online, even with the discounts. Play it safe. Thanks Perthies! Look forward to sharing my diary here if and when.

Hey all, Haven't contributed to the OZ Stoners community for years ...seems my original profile still exists but impossible to re-establish ...but that's not why I am posting. I have just spent ages creating a growroom journal spreadsheet with tons of formulas, calculators, conversions, etc - which I would like to share with the Oz Stoner crew. Problem is I can't figure out how to upload it here... Anyone have any ideas on how to go about this? I originally made it for personal use - so I could keep good records of my own grows and to simplify things like ppm conversion, lucas formula addback, US to metric conversion, etc, etc. I've just started using it …
