Hi Mutron

Yeah im using this at the mo,just potted up with it into 3ltr pots a few days ago and roots already showing at the bottom of the pots.

Its a nice dark,sweet smelling compo.imo

HH

Would it be suitable for propgation ? Can't get John-I around here

Hi guy's I too use West lands Organic Peat free Compost, now I know for the pre-growth stage we dont need to add anything to the soil.But for bloom I have some Hydrated Lime Pellets these are wicked as soon as water touches them they disperse and dissolve as the water hits them spreading the calcium , and Magnesium while adjusting the PH, I have some dried blood and bone for Nitrogen and some Bone Meal as well as pearlite and vermiculite what else do I need do you reckon.

hey have read a thread bout westlands giving your plants fungal issues. just thought i would point that 1 out. only notice 2 weeks into flower!

Hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Interesting thanks dude do you have the link, if not I will chase it somehow if i dont forget he he

I recently decided to give it a try, the westlands organic veg compost. I potted up 2 DrChronic Biggie Smalls, one with the compost & 5% Bio Bizz Pre Mix mixed in and the other without the Bio Bizz Pre Mix. The one without died pretty quick but the seedling did look quite deformed. Ill have to try it again. The pot with the pre mix is doing well as u can see from the pic. That was planted on 22nd October.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh another dude with deformed seedlings in that Westlands Compost?????.Were they coming out anything like this weird huh I only got it with the same batch of seeds though?.I thought It was maybe the seeds?, but things are showing it too could have been the compost :blub:However that seedling looks fine to me.

Different Westland compost in that thread mind.....

what are you doing with these!?

Mixing them in the compost u dont need as much as normall they dispearse real well good OR IS IT Or sprinkle a few pellets on top if PH is out that works well to

yeah, i wouldn't be doing that, it'll pretty much kill any microherd you have in there. if you want to adjust ph, mix some dolomite lime with your compost a month or two before you plan to use it. hydrated lime reacts way to quickly and violently and 'shocks' the compost. plus it's highly water soluble so ph changes are only temporary.

Mmmmmmmmm thanks buddy

sorry for the massive time delay......i found westlands dried out too quickly and i ended up with nasty leaf spot fungus which killed my xmas satoris

bum

sort of good thing though as now is not really the right time/circumstance to gro

going back to trusty old multi purpose next time methinks!
