Haha, my secret sauce is soap nuts that soak in vegetable glycerin for 90+ days. Add about a tablespoon per 5 gallon bucket.

You could do a soak for the watering, by filling a bucket with your tea/water and set the pot in the water/tea to soak up the liquid, this also helps a bit by not compressing the medium with top down watering. Just saying for what itās worthā¦
Sure if I had a few plants that would be practicalā¦ But Iāve got an entire 12x16 greenhouse stuffed full with roots going through the grow bags straight into the ground, they get the hose again, and again, and again lol
Once peat gets wet after about 15 min itās not so bad to water in but Iām impatient when I have that many plants to do

Love the healthy discussion and advice for soil growing!
Iāve read through all the comments and will have to read them all again to take it all in.
Might just need to get back on the horse and give soil a go again!

Where does cannabis grow in a forest?

Haha ever heard of guerrilla grows? Lol used to be a bigger thing before we moved the plants in our backyards with legalization

I guess it depends on what type of forest. But cannabis prefers to grow in a clearing. In addition, a rain forest is actually not very fertile, most of the nutrients are tied up in the vegetation at any given moment.

Ya gonna have to disagree with ya on that one, years and years of that vegetation dropping and layering that forest floor is just one giant ass compost pile, new plants sprout up all the time in it and able to find plenty of nutrition. Letās just say Iād sure love a few front loader scoops of forest floor delivered to my place here if I could! Lots of bomb microbes and natural fungus mycelium cultures that would greatly benefit my gardens
EDIT I mean can u say no till garden? More like no till forest

I once thought someone was throwing rocks in a river that I was hiking out along at night. I would freeze, wait a few minutes, start walking again and ā¦āsplashā. After the 3rd time I was like" Alright, whoās there?"
Finally figured out it was a beaver!
