Hey guys, i've been growing with LOS for the last 3 years and i have great results with something called Biodyne Environoc 401 Microbes. Basically a bottle filled with billions of 25 different species of beneficial microbes. I add this to my feedings now and then to keep the microbe count up. This is a South African product, but i was wondering if you guys have something similar that side?

Biodyne Environoc 401 Microbes contain Beneficial Microbes that provide broad benefits for many plants including: Increased health and vigor, Healthier roots, Stronger and longer stems, Increased flower / fruit production, Phosphate solubilization capabilities, Nitrogen fixing capabilities. It is suitable for organic AND hydroponic systems.
Over 25 Strains of Fresh, Viable, and Natural Microbes selected for their capabilities to provide enhanced plant health and production through enhanced rhizosphere (root microenvironment) activities from specialized capabilities of the microbes. High count microbial inoculant with efficacy across a number of environmental applications
Capabilities: Phosphate Solubilizing microbes and Nitrogen Fixing microbes may reduce fertilizer needs, Enhanced leaf, flower and fruit production via rhizosphere microbe activities. Overall enhanced plant / turf health and vigor.

I am in no way promoting this product, however i can say it makes my plants very happy and that's all that counts

Thanks irie, I'm going to check it out now. Edit: Wow interesting stuff. Love all the new possibilities and it serves you very well.

I was reading about the ocean (kelp, seaweed, seawater). To boil it down, the ocean has all of the elements that appear on earth in their natural state. Seems it can't be beat for micronutrients. There was also a ferment that went with that. I forget the process, but it's not complicated. I did chop up a half gallon of seaweed, blended it, and fermented that. Then added to my nutrient mix.
Don't you love it when the "light turns on" making everything fall into place? It's been one of those journeys for me, as well! Cheers

So I checked the PPM over time of the aact I made last. Here's an example of how micro life amounts can be represented in ppm. A microscope is the only way to get real numbers but I'm trusting this. @InTheShed Here ya go bro.
Noon 597ppm
8pm 569
5am 582
2pm 631
8pm 639
5am 645
Other than the first 8pm test going down there was a steady upward progress. If I had a microscope we could have some real numbers. Oh well maybe a yard sale one day. I have to say there's nothing like craigs list free pages too. Happy tuesday.

Everybody's different
I gave my buddy a 1/4 z of my last 4 plants to try and I thought he'd tell me which one(s) he liked so I can load him up. He comes over today and says, Otter...unlike you, I can't tell the difference between all this stuff. There were 2 indicas and 2 sativas. Ms Otter is that way with tasting but feels the differences. I'm that way with cigars. Some people can taste multiple micro flavors in them Not me so much just enjoyable or not, and I've been at it for years. I'm so glad I can taste weed! Yum. After all, I'd be wasting time growing the tastiest weed possible if I didn't enjoy every pull.

But that's the way I am, I don't get the subtle differences between strains.

 

[StoneOtter]

You mean tastes?

 

[Pennywise]

Yea, most just tastes "like weed"

 

[StoneOtter]

That's how it is when I take some with my nose. Old time smoke taste.

With your nose.... Like weed lines?? Or blowing smoke out of your nose. I need some clarification, please.

So if I take a hit from the bong. The water pushes the smoke back through the bowl and out in a big puff. I sometimes give the puff a sniff if it looks dense. Just sniffing is all.

I find the genetics out there these days are so potent, taste and terpenes are for sure one of the most important things for me. I usually do not enjoy a strain so much if it makes me goofed but it’s tasteless or does not have much flavor. All my best smokes have come from flavourful strains

I think we're spoiled in the best way!

Kelp is awesome.

Kelp is awesome.

[Pennywise]

Get it dried and ground.

 

[KingJoe83]

Get it dried and ground.

Add it in too?

Or top dressing/feeding ?

 

[Pennywise]

Add it in.

I recently heard that. I got an ocean load of it down the street. I'll have to figure what to do with what I find.
