I ass-u-me, that vermiculite at the bottom of the pot holding extra moisture longer, will also be holding extra liquid nutes longer?
and I feed at the point of starvation

We started using worm castings two crops ago... big difference in bulk! I'll take some "before cure" and "after cure" shots next time around. The shrinkage as far as volume goes is the least I have ever seen by a long shot. I found that the big name hardware stores have good deals... I paid $28 for a 25 lb. bag at a local grow store... it was like $15 with free shipping to the nearest store from the big name outfit for even bigger bags. Bought 20-sacks to last awhile. :O)Quote:

Shov, correctamundo, Tea is great for a crop. As stated in a previous post grabbed a box of it (contains like 15 tea bags) & each bag makes a gallon. 24 hour brew & works like a dream! Perfect for vegging. When it comes to different recipes for soil we can discuss it for hours. Depends on what your rais'n, different strains require different blends IMHO of course. Personally keep it simple with 1 part manure, 1 part Canadian peat & 1 part perlite. But who am I, I'm Esteban, that's who! Still learning 'bout this Evil weed. It's a journey..... Enjoy the ride. Peace be upon you.

whatever happened to Headshake_?:(
He left Cdot in early 2011.
Popped up on a couple other boards for a while but I haven't seen him posting on any of my boards for quite a while now.
I kinda miss him too.
Aloha,
