I'd really like to ask a hundred questions but I'm completely stoned! But watch every episodes. Thank you and love your products. The earth boxes have been a game changer for me.
In a worm bin if you freeze your food inputs before you add them the fruit flies and fungus gnats can't survive the freeze. Add more dry bedding when you add food to absorb and balance moisture and c:n ratio.
Someone posted a while back they use a salad spinner to remove excess moisture after freezing. I've not tried it yet, but the concept seems sound.
Aaahhh😮
would LOVE to see an episode with coot on how he makes compost and worm castings. great faq ty!
I would love to see ithat also
That would be amazing! Hearing how he says that's what it's all about that would be epic!!!🙂🤙♿️
Look back about 6 months ago they have one!
Definitely would be a great episode!! Could even be 2 separate episodes
@@keithponds1367 he just talks basics. Would like him to elaborate. I love hearing all his knowledge👍❤️♿️
YES, I’m finally the first…hahahaha I’m loyal to the soil…:)
Now heck far mankind I'm gonna be 1st next time , good job 👏
Dang it lol
@@timbaker266 Why thank you, I think you’ve got the next one…lol.
@@michigancody467 I waited for you and everything…lol
👏
100% with the idea of a video with Coot about how he makes his compost. I've been fumbling with my compost tumbler and need to step my game up. That would be awesome!
Even though I don't think I have any questions, I find there is always something in these questions and/or your answers that get my brain to think about my own gardening. Super cool! Thanks much bro!
I was thinking the same thing after watching all this lol
PRO-TIP-You can “charge” or inoculate your pumice with biologics before you mix it up with your soil particularly a product like liquid gem that’s been extracted by enzymes and not by heat Or acids…
You can do that with lava rocks too, like charging biochar.
Soak some seeds until germination and use that water on a loved plant. I use sunflower seeds. One love.
@@MrElemonator Better yet, soak the seeds until tap roots pop, take the water and seeds, blend them up and strain into water, then use that to water your plants....Enzymes!!
@@MrElemonator you are supposed to soak them until they sprout, and then grind those up for enzymes.. aka Coots Gnarley Barley mix at buildasoil
Great FAQ! I would love some more videos on re-amending soil. It seems straight forward but would love to learn a little more about amending without a soil test.
I grow with only 20-30 gallons of soil maximum at a time and soil testing isnt as cost efficient for me. I'd prefer to eye ball it if possible.
I second this.
Yes please!
Season 3, Episode 7 - This is very helpful in showing soil testing vs "build a soil way" without testing
I am finishing up my first run using a NIWA and it’s a game changer. Such a valuable tool to have in my garden
Excellent content as always! I've been here since the beginning and don't plan on leaving anytime soon! My absolute favorite channel on RUclips and my favorite company to get my soil and amendments from.
Jeremy you are THE MAN!!!! THANK YOU for answering my question
Love the QA, this channel has been amazing helping me learn to not only garden but do it in an organic and sustainable way which I am all about. Still a super rookie but learning :)
Hi Jeremy, any chance you can make an update video to the “Intro to Vermicompost” episode you made last July setting up the Urban worm bin? I’m contemplating setting up my own Urban Worm bin as I continue down this rabbit hole that is sustainable no-till gardening, and it would be awesome to see an update on your bin several months later. Any tips on harvesting and maintenance efforts would be insightful also. Appreciate all the support you provide us Newbies in Virginia as we are coming up on our 1-year anniversary of legalization in July. However, your videos have certainly accelerated the learning curve…lol. Shout out to Token Rhyme Gardening in VA, a local one-stop shop for the build-a- soil way!
Always helpful appreciate the bas crew an would love to see coot back on to share his wisdom of how he dose his vermicompost
I had 2 second degree belts by 17. One for open hand one for traditional weapons. It’s Good to know that you’re also a lifelong student of the arts. This Certainly helps explain your lack of ego and calm well thought out thinking process. You seem to know there is no black and white, only an endless number of different shades of grey.
Hey buildasoil, I’m a huge fan of your 3.0 soil and currently running 3x 15 gal grassroots pots with the 3.0 soil. I’ve been thinking about starting a 2x4 bed no till grow. My question is how many plants can I grow using the SOG (sea of green) method? Thank you for all the effort you and your family put in your RUclips videos. I truly appreciate it. Thank you
I think the reason the roots die when you start with an air stone, and then it fails is because the roots become dependent on it, because the colony of roots is much larger and supported by the extra oxygen when that extra oxygen source is cut out a portion dies off. Just a theory or bro science haha but makes sense😊
I love seeing a new BuildASoil notification. Can’t click it fast enough !
I recently read somewhere that horsetail is full of silica .i.ve picked a load .dryed them and ground them up .goin to add when reamending my living soil
My first Chapin 1949 lasted 4 years, started to rust.
Excellent content as always, Great one!
Warm up the neem oil it works for me respect Jeremy
Thanks for answering my question Jermey! You’re the man!
Jeremy - Thanks for all the content and transparency. I've been following your series since the beginning and you helped me transition 100% away from salts. I've tried organics in the past and failed numerous times. You taught me indoor organic gardening and I've been hearing raving reviews from my first organic harvest (Blue Dream). Thank you for all that you do for the community. Question: Can you talk about how to deal with overwatering and how to deal with pythium if you get it in a living soil container. This has happened both in Earthboxes and larger fabric containers. I know you'll say prevention is #1, but what happens if you do get it? I've transitioned almost 100% to 3.0 soil, but if overwatered on smaller plants, it almost immediately gets rot. If there's still a living plant in the soil, is there a good way to recover and get rid of pythium? The best thing I've been able to do so far is to let the pot completely dry out between every watering which allows the root system to develop, but I find the pot to still be sensitive to overwatering even after this happens. Does pythium remain in the soil even if you let it dry out several times, to the point of mild wilting? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Just an idea, but bubblers in the form of little air pump tubes in the bottoms of earth box resivours and have the pump tubed up higher than the resivour so it doesn’t backflow. When you said intense results I was intrigued! Hopefully it doesn’t effect microbes with too much oxygen and losing some of those more anaerobic leaning facultative microbes
Plant success organic mycorrhizae 3/1/2, and happy frog bulb food 3/8/8 are both good amendments for a living soil/super soil mix. Also, chitin from insect frass, shrimp and crab meals, etc and diatomaceous earth mixed into soil ( use very little) also helps with fungus gnats. Neem meal does too I just don't like the smell lol
#LoyalToTheSoil
love all the information and videos!
Would be interesting if you maybe mixed things up next run and have a single 4 X 4 drip tray and some Hugo blocks for a hydro run and then compare it to your soil grown plants. Good video 👍💪
FAQ QUESTION, If I use living soil in four 20 gallon fabric pots for one or two cycles and then upgrade to a 4x4 raised bed, how do I reuse the 80 gallons of soil from the four 20 gallon pots if I won't be using those pots anymore. I plan to get either two take and bake kits or the coots mix for the 4x4, so I won't necessarily need the soil from the 20 gallon pots. Can I mix the four 20 gallon soils together and then get a soil test and amend it and reuse it over time for seedlings and transplants? How do you reuse no-till soil when not using that pot size anymore but still want to reuse the soil? Sorry if that's a dumb question but I'm brand new to no-till living soil. Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it.
FAQ QUESTION. I built my 1st batch of soil using the coots recipe like in your video.. My question is can I use Is my amendments To top dress with? I only have crustacean meal, basalt, glacier rock dust, and oyster shell flower left. What amounts can I use, and how to apply it. Thanks. Love the channel
I have a 30in x 18in x 36in tent was thinking of making a Living Soil bed or a earthbox how many plants would I be able to grow with in a Living Soil Beds. Been following you for a while you’re a lifesaver love you Jeremy
Thanks for all the work you guys do in sharing the knowledge!
Love the FAQ's!
Hello, thank you for the information in all of your videos. Do you have a video that helps identify male and female plants when growing with regular seeds? Thanks
I have 3 Ac Infinity tents using two fans.. one room blows into my cutting room, helps with heat and moisture from the big room
Thank you so much! I was thinking about growing in an earth box with airstones and had that exact same question!
thanks for all you guys do! big love to y'all. Hands down best cannabis/organic growing channel on youtube. We all wanna believe some of the hippy science a little, so what are your thoughts on bio harmonic tonic/growing with crystal in the pots? BS?!?!
How long should soil set moistened before adding your plants? So there is food ready for intake. (5 gal) Thanks
Jeremy I love your product, but I'm a self sufficient kind of guy and make most my stuff at home. I would love your knowledge of jadam liquid fertilizers and the jadam sulfur. I just made a few batch of flower fertilizer from sea salt water and all the small buds from a harvest. I added small amount of Epsom salt also. My plants seem to love this so far. I'd love hear your opinion! P.s. I still get all my stuff from you guys that I'm not making and always refer you to any friends that have the money. Much love and respect from east coast
OSS Jeremy! Greetings from NJ brother 🤙 you’ve been a huge inspiration and help in my journey of becoming self sustainable 🙏💚 had one question about cloning. I seem to get a couple developing white mold, wilting, yellowing and maybe a 50% success rate in rooting. Rockwool cubes, in a CloneDome with the air holes open, plain well water in reservoir, room temp 70-75 . Thinking my temps may be too low but hesitant to implement a heat mat due to damping off. Any help greatly appreciated my man! 🙏💚🤙
another jerseyan in the house! hey growmie!
ya jer , you rule ! if you dont mind keep em coming!
The hardest thing to do is find good genetics. It seems like the only way to get good genetics is to geno hunt seeds since all of the top shelf genetics are being hoarded by commercial growers now. It used to be in the caregivers hand, and wasn't about over charging people for medicine.
Definitely get Coot back on. I always love hearing what he has to teach.
As always thank you for your knowledge on these videos. Say you've been using dirty ph'd water and then switch to filtered water. Is the build up of bicarbonate going to be an issue?
Would you recommend supplementing Summer outdoor sunlight with extra hours of LED lights indoors. This is the mature seedling/early veg stage.
Outstanding!!! Love these FAQs, always great conversations and questions. Thanks Jermey and the amazing team at BAS. Loyal to the soil
Thanks dude!
Can you use a little sand from the beach ⛱️ as a form or silica in any soil & or coco coir grow? 🤔
No
Darn I was driving. I have 2 gorilla glue #4 autos going in my new earthbox. I’m about 20 days behind your grow! Ty for the inspiration
im trying daves fetid swamp water (knf) on the girls and my veggies this year, im just wondering is there any plants i shouldnt be putting in the barrel? anything harmful to the plantlife when fermented? thanks
great q & a
I popped seeds in your 3.0 soil I was curious if it would be to hot but it worked great
Same here - popped mine into 3.0, and have been doing fantastic since germination
Hey Jeremy, love the show. When growing a new genetic, I know you always prefer to let the plants grow untrained, to see the natural shape etc., but if I know I’m going to use training in future runs when I find a keeper is it still beneficial to let them grow naturally the first time? Or should I grow them how I plan to in the future to see how they react to training etc.? Thanks for ur help, keep growing the dank!
I started my seeds early under a light and everything was going great until I screwed up the light cycle and my plants flopped to flower, since then I've planted them outside and they're getting plenty of light now. My question is, will they switch back to veg. I guess I should tell you they are not autos. Thanks
You’re the man!🙌
I’ve heard some talk about foliar spraying just water once a week all threw flower but no explanation why and can’t find anything to support that claim. From my understanding, that’s something you wouldn’t want to do as it could lead to bud rot or powdery mildew. Could there be a reason why?
So, question I’m a first time grower can I use a compost tea during veg. Also, I want to top dress a week or two into flower can I still use a compost tea or is that too much for the plant to handle. Thanks for everything you do for us growers.
Thank you
How do I claim my prize?
Lol perlite is crap, thx for clearing that up! Thx 4 the epic content!
What's the soil depth limit for homemade wicking beds (like Earthboxes)/ How far up will the water rise from the wicking action?
It seems like Earthboxes are a great idea but can they be big enough for good size photo period plants or big tomatoes?
Thanks for doing everything you do for the gardening community!
@MD Buds I have homemade wicking beds with a mix of sphagnum moss, lava rocks for aeration, and organic amendments. I cut the tote lids to fit 3" above the bottom for the reservoirs. I cut the corners of the lids off and put landscape fabric on top of the lids and dipping into the corners so the soil doesn't fall in the water. So my soil is probably 15 inches deep but I don't have a layer of scoria. My boxes are deeper than the Patio Pickers boxes I bought. And they seem to work. Or do you think I'll have problems?
@MD Buds thank you for the help! I think my homemade wicking beds are about as deep as they can be, about like you said. So far they're great. It's good to know that bigger won't help. Walmart has a nice looking 4' long wicking bed but it's too deep. I guess it would be fine if you didn't put too much soil in them. I thought about getting one or two for mom's veggies. We're using kid's pools and fabric pots to bottom water outside and it works with 5 gallon pots. Oil pans from the dollar store work too.
@MD Buds I found the oil pans at the Dollar Tree. Sometimes they have them, sometimes not. You just have to keep looking. Or you can order a case.
Brilliant knowledge as always. 🤙
20th… part of the 4:20 team here. Dig your knowledge duder, aweinspiring. Btw, u could always send me your unused clones 🤙🏽
To the person with the chapin sprayer fill it with water and let it sit for a few days then have the water tested through Loganlabs?
I always learn a ton with these, but this time there were a handful of questions about issues I'm having right now. BuildASoil, always coming in clutch!
Oh, and I posted some pics of my grow in a discord community today, and when I told them it was my first grow, they cried. They wished they could have results like I'm having. Naturally, I told 'em to follow the BuildASoil way and watch the 10x10 series. Despite my mistakes-and there have been plenty-the BAS way is still knocking it out of the park. Cheers.
Another great video from BAS!
Sometimes After Thorough LST Training, The Plant Will Directly Hold It's Main Top Directly Upwards, Is This Stunting The Plant? Have To Wait For It To Lay It's Leaves Down Before Training Again, Or It Seems Stunted. Usually Happens From Bending & Twisting The Top, LST- wise.
Great videos, I love all the content and great info with the family farms series!
I recently got my mustard seed meal pellets last week but the application rates listed threw me for a loop. When I’m applying to just 1 sq ft at a time, do you recommend different amounts for different situations? I have I one thriving plant about a month old. I also have another container I want to apply to to help with the gnats but I will wait the precautionary time before planting. I will check the blog to see if anyone has posted but anything you can pass along would be appreciated. Thanks!
Diatamateous earth, I thought about putting a layer of this myself in between harvests. I just had major infestation of thrips and possibly spider mites. But I figured it would be dangerous for the worms. They will not be harmed?
First off, I gotta thank you again for what you do. I was in the local grow joint just a couple weeks ago and BuildaSoil came up in conversation of no-till. Lol I'm in Michigan. Y'alls are all over bro, it's amazing.
So I was reading up on the benefits of molasses versus Honey(tea brewing and such), Molasses is the overall winner. But I was wondering if it would be beneficial to add some honey, maybe like a half and half Honey molasses mix to get the beneficials from the honey too? I appreciate you, Jeremy. 🤙
Hi Jeremy & BAS.
I love your growing series . Have a question on aeration in living soil , will crushed leca be appropriate for a replace for pumice .
All the way from RSA. Respect for the transparent content
Is it possible to grow lemon tree with using BAS products? If so, What would one have to add to the soil?
IPM Question.
I started a new fabric bed. So I have seedling rocking with cover crop. I inoculated my garden with nematodes, predatory mites, and rove beetles. I’m going to be doing foliar spraying with JWA, JWA + neem oil, JWA + JS, and EM-5 in rotation. Wouldn’t the foliar spraying be killing my beneficials? Did I just pour money down the drain with the beneficials?
Sometimes companies put Styrofoam prills in potting soil and it looks like perlite but its not. The Styrofoam floats but perlite does not. Especially if you put perlite in soil its not going to float because it gets dirty very fast and that makes it heavy. If you see floating white prills in some potting soil its probably a cheap styrofoam filler. Not real perlite. Its a cheaper additive they just add it to trick you and make you think its got perlite in it. Perlite is really good but Syrofoam is not good in soil.
after I spray neem, I run hot water through my sprayer, including the nozzle. This pushes out any residual neem that may stick around after I'm done spraying. I've done this for years and have never had a clog.
Fuck neem man if you have spider mites invert plants in wash basin and spray luke warm water to underside of plant, I have always had success doing such. However best thing is just keeping everything sterile and never reuse dirty pots and avoid using any supplies or equipment you use outside
@@bigrob6076 I actually just use neem to deter grasshoppers outside. I have one pot that's had the same soil in it for literal decades, since the 80s, never had a problem there. This guy was saying he had a problem with neem clogging up his sprayer, and I suggested flushing with hot water immediately after use to prevent it in the future.
@@danielking4713 word outdoors all cool I was just discussing for indoor use. Also I will express my thoughts but I will never tell another man what to do. Peace and happy growing.
Neem just absolutely doesn’t work also which is cool
Can you add kashi blend and chop and drop water leaves into the CoWoCo? So worms can feed on them
Anyway you would be willing to do a controlled test on toxicity and deficiencies and what they look like and how to fix them using your products..and would be the best way to make a tea for different stages of your plants what ingredients to use in veg and bloom that won't burn the plants
Can you please please please add a new column for autoflowers on the feeding schedule? I've tried to adapt it myself but it's not quite there
Hey do u think sometime u wud do a video on your home grow, thought that wud b fun to see😊✌️
Please stick some blumat water sensors in the pots and earthboxes and show us some real metrics. Also how big of change do you want to see between watering.
Soil testing at 7.4 pH. How do I lower. Should I start pretreatment and pH the water. Out of the tap it's around 7.4. can I make my soil process this down to the ideal soil pH? Lime or any other additive? Experiencing very slow growth. I don't have the cash for your amazing products right now.
I use night crawlers in some of my plant bins the create a large aeration aspect what u think bas? Which is better worms or crawlers?
What worms would be best to have in the soil ? Nightcrawlers or red wigglers? Thank you 😊
Why would you have a buildasoil logo with no subscribers?
What's your idea on using maple sugar during flower.
Hi what are your thoughts on under lighting do you think it's worth putting lights under the canape?
I’ve been experimenting with different cover crop mixes, what’s your opinion on using something like a daikon radish sprouting seed and mulching it relatively fast or culling it back to prevent it from fruiting? They seem to sprout quickly in comparison to others I have used and have large deep penetrating tap roots to help break up the soil. What’s the thought behind the specific seeds that you have chosen to use in the bas cover crop? Thanks
What a great FAQ!! 🔥 At what amount and frequency would you suggest to start the coconut water if taken straight from the young coconut??
What are your thoughts on rice root aphids in veg? Save or throw away?
I have a bad fungus gnat infestation in my newly set up 2x4 bed. I ordered some mustard from you guys. Will it be OK in the meantime? I've heard that peroxide will work when diluted but will that mess up any of my organics? Peroxide does have its pros and cons
What do you think about wood vinegar and its uses???
Where can i go to ask you questions lol I really want to know what I'm growing in ? I'm growing in royal gold tupur, wormcasting, perlite and Dr earth dry amendments. 2 tbsps per gal in 5 gal fabric pots. Ph at 6.4 and watering with liquid seaweed and molasses every 2 weeks. Is this considered a living soil ?
And should I keep ph-ing or should I stop as I see some people don't ph in living soil ? Any advice would help thank you in advance
When topping with amendments how do you find ratio of your end topping. Like if I used a 12-0-0 for nitrogen then another amendment is 0-12-0 and a 0-0-24. In equal parts does that make a 4-4-8 in theory?
Im using bio bizz all mix. How long before adding nutrients.
What do you recommend to prevent bud mold on outdoor? Last year had an issue with that and catapilers and don't want the same issue again if I can help it.
Hey bro I love it how you answer questions like this, but whoever did ur eyebrows to thin bro
Would love to learn coots compost making method.
Have you used or heard of 'Gin Trash'? It has been used as an extra component to growing plants. Looking to run a grow room and was thinking of using this for our 4x24 grow space.
Hey Jeremy! What about using some bamboo extract for the silica?
On my AWKID pheno hunt, the frosty plant that looks the most dank, all 3 clones died! Mother of God!
Optic led is awesome
