Indoor Zaaboot has gone to pot 2022 auto spree

I mean in reality the only real way to tell what is there is a soil test takes time and money and that is prohibitive. My thoughts are something has to be retained how much and what is another story. What are you amending with? Dry amendments?

For an example here is what I would do in your situation and you can take it for what it is worth.

If I had this happen in a ten gallon and I feared I washed out all my nutrients and biology. I would top dress maybe three quarters my normal re amendment amount (or half depending on how comfortable you are with it). I typically use about 4 cups per ten gallon of BAS nutrient blend. So for this I would go with 3 cups kind of work in the top layer and then cover with 1/2 cup bokashi and then cover with worm castings. Every time I reamend I always use Bokashi and castings.

If you think that is two much go with half your normal amount. Long as you are comfortable amending and knowing the signs its not that big a deal. I just wouldn't go full bore because something is retained how much you will probably not know.

I would also hit in with some beneficials if you use them root inoculants, mykos, LAB whatever you use.

It may seem bad now but you will learn a lot making it through this.

You could also make the case for going half then reamending at the start and middle of flower. I just would not overdue it as once its in your not getting it back out. You do not want to overfeed for that reason.

There might be a more scientific answer out there but that is not my thing.

Take notes and monitor the response to what you did it will make you a better grower in the long run.
Many thanks - I have not used anything yet ever, although it is my first ever dabble in soil and living soil nothing has been added yet.

it is only the 39ltr pot that was drenched - I do have some Ecothrive charge and Ecothrive Biosys. The soil has never been used before. I will have to look at the root inoculate you mentioned as well.

After the incident, I went to my go to bottle of Remo Velokelp and made a foliar and this morning they have all perked up a little.

as you say it is 100% learning curve - I have been growing for over 20years - started on NFT, moved to Wilma’s and have never changed that, so this is all so daunting

tha is again for your help - much appreciated

Sawney’s tent
After 24hrs of drying the tent back to its normal environment and giving everything a good drowning (sounds very counter intuitive - to drown something that has already been drowned) everything in Velokelp foliar this fine and sunny morning shows no ills or nasty thrills


all are Sawney’s which are doing grand - the odd one out runt is not - normally anything behaving stupidly would get pulled but I have just cracked open my last small grove bag of La Rica so I need more CBD in my stash. She will snap out of it, just annoying looking at her, she is like a leper at Milan fashion week….

last sealed bag opened - poo bums its my favorite

Been in there since the beginning if December, heat sealed - the aroma that penetrated the house when I ripped it open was utterly butterly and the terps and overall state of the bed is excellent

Far too messy in there for my brain to cope

have a pleasant day all

Any help
Hello all - trials and tribulations of soil :haha:

I just spotted this in the living soil bag - any ideas?

And the bigger question - how to do it without bottles or chemicals - once again, answers on a postcard to BBC center, or just here will be fine

thanks all

Can't offer any advice m8 as I always just refer to the trusty 'leaf deficiencies diagram' online everywhere.. but it is the start of something.. as you've picked up of course.

I have seen this in soil when it was to rich full of conflicting nutrients. Levels of to much can even burn and screw up a soil plant.
I had this when I was looking for a balance between chicken poop blood fish bone seaweed and pot ash.
All I learned was I didn't need that much. Just chicken poop at the correct amount per pot with a single tea feed of needed .
soz . Not sure tho if it's you're problem ? It may even be ph level ?

It is the only plant in the living soil - I think by taking it swimming yesterday could have overly activated what’s in there - I have no idea - the others are all fine but they were not drowned
