      Farmbuck I think I helped lower your odds of having auto dwarves. You're welcome.

    Yeah I have my work cut out for me sure. I plan to try a coco base ammended with organics like Castings, guano, kelp, dried neem cake, dried kayanga cake and a couple others then supplement with compost teas like Budgal. I'm in unexplored territory here again at least for me but it just seems so logical to me. I see a lot of folk starting to add some of these to their coco to avoid the chemical nutes as much as possible. I still have some on hand if needed. I'm gonna shoot for the new moon on Sept 6. G'nite sir!
