This will be a home for all things related to the cultivation of cannabis. The preferred focus here will be organic and sustainable growing methods, but any cannabis growers or growers-to-be are welcome!
The moderator and community creator here is in a legal cannabis state. It is therefore assumed that everyone sharing photos and info about their grows is also doing so legally. If you're not, then keep that to yourself. Any mention of actively conducting a cannabis grow illegally will be removed. This is to protect our instance admin, and will be a zero-tolerance policy.
Happy growing!

Basically the large soil volume gives you all the nutrients you need up front, the cover crop holds in moisture and fixes nitrogen into the soil and the bugs cycle the cover crop back into nutrients when you cut it and drop it. When you add nutrients, you basically just drop some compost near the root mass and water it in, and again the volume of the soil means that it's really difficult to overfeed. It's also easier to keep the soil moisture more stable with that much dirt, compared to daily or multi-daily watering in a 3 gallon fabric pot.
I highly recommend the Build-a-soil youtube channel just don't let him sell you too many potions because you can get kind of crazy with all that shit.
Thanks for taking the time to explain all of this!
