Shig; cheers for the compliments!
I've been thinking hard about Docs kit for quite a while. Frankly, it seems a natural progression in "organic" MJ, and that's what interests me most.. Well, the massive, frosty buds you brixers all seem to produce every time are a good incentive too! I will get there. My style is more Coots, and it works.. I am finding, thanks to Grizzs observations, that I am over-feeding veg nutes. My compost may be too green, plus I have no self restraint... Non-MJ looks a bit sick, you chuck fert at it til it's green again. Done. So I gotta get out of that mind set.. But I will just add more perlite for now to increase air and dilute the mix a bit. And not add ANY nutes til flower from now on...
Hempy appeals for the simplicity, yes.. But I am scared of PPMs and EC etc. etc. Docs kit would be great. I will get a kit sooner rather than later. You do make it sound easier than hempy! But the HP Pro Mix is expensive here and hard to get, for example.. Any spagnum/peat product here is.. Some of the other soil ingredients may be difficult, too..
Would you be so kind as to quickly jot down a basic list of ingredients I need to start, mainly even substitutes for any of the less common stuff.. I'll look into it a bit more. I did PM Doc a while back re the price etc, so I know all that stuff.. I have a look at the first few pages of his thread... Funny you bring it up.. I know I've been talking about a change of grow style but I would like to keep it all as organic as possible... High Brix popped back in my head a couple days ago as an option... I need a worm farm, which is in the cards anyway when it starts to warm up.. Might be too late for next grow but one after...?
Cheers! Got me thinking..
