RESEARCH SHOWS COVER CROP BIOMASS HELPS CONTROL TOUGH WEEDSResearch at the University of Wisconsin is showing just how well cover crops can control problem weeds including waterhemp.

Has anyone ever looked at the key influence points for hemp and what nutrients might be best for each stage? As well as, when those stages typically occur? (Bud set, blossoming, pollination, flower cell division, flower fill)

Hi Dan, I’ve been cultivating cannabis for over a decade. The critical points of influence and nutrients required are basically the same as other crops. I supply mostly micronutrients in the seedling stage. The vegetative stage requires more N and K. Early flower/transition you want to see more P. In late flower back off on the P and bring up… Read more

Has anyone had experience with the idea of manganese? In aqua culture, the growing medium (water) must be very oxygenated, to be an effective medium…and yet, we know that for plants to uptake manganese it must be non oxidized. Just curious.

Thanks Haydn very helpfull.also if I’m doing no dig, I Will sure cover crop this Winter and also add compost cause I saw It gets things better

Hi Guys, I’m just about to build a 2m³ JS Reactor but wish to run feed-stock through 2 x 5 day heat cycles to kill weed seeds etc before loading. Feed-stock is mainly carbon material and controlled heat cycles will come from Alphalpha inclusion and forced air extraction. Wondering if the thermophilic cycles will be detrimental to the…

160 degrees F is a usual cutoff for where of the “good guys” will be destroyed, so you may be defeating the purpose with a strong heat cycle. I’d suggest a good compost is better than a compost with no seeds, otherwise you are just creating an expensive mulch. If you let the pile mature fully, and drop in a lot of worms, I’d bet that a lot of… Read more

My (limited) understanding of the JS method, is of very high carbon, very brief somewhat thermophilic phase with a loooong aerobic, fungal growing and diversification phase. I seem to recall that this long maturation phase, with the vast diversity of fungi, might do a fairly good job of dealing with any pathgens, and weed seeds, though… Read more
