With an introduction by SKUNK Magazine's cultivation editor and breeding guru The Rev, the bestselling author of True Living Organics: The Ultimate Guide to Growing All-Natural Marijuana Indoors , discussing his views on the Cannabis Indica plant, as well as its growth patterns, genetic tendencies, breeding potential and smokeability, this book is every true cannabis enthusiast's dream.
Organic Gardening magazine inspires and empowers readers with trusted information about how to grow the freshest, most healthful food, create a beautiful, safe haven around their homes, use our natural resources wisely, and care for the environment in all aspects of their lives. The Red Planet has been a subject of fascination for humanity for thousands of years, becoming part of our folklore and popular culture.
The most Earthlike of the planets in our solar system, Mars may have harbored some form of life in the past and may still possess an ecosystem in some underground refuge. The mysteries of this fourth planet from our Sun make it of central importance to NASA and its science goals for the twenty-first century. Scott Hubbard was asked to lead this restructuring in , becoming known as the "Mars Czar. Hubbard's work created the Mars Odyssey mission, the twin rovers Spirit and Opportunity, the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, the Phoenix mission, and most recently the planned launch of the Mars Science Laboratory.
Now for the first time Scott Hubbard tells the complete story of how he fashioned this program, describing both the technical and political forces involved and bringing to life the national and international cast of characters engaged in this monumental endeavor.
Blending the exciting stories of the missions with the thrills of scientific discovery, Exploring Mars will intrigue anyone interested in the science, the engineering, or the policy of investigating other worlds. Explains the advantages of organic living and how to apply it to building and furnishing the home, food and the garden, and family health.
Today, Dolan and Fetzer are leading the California wine industry toward profound change in how wineries and grape growers preserve their environment, strengthen their communities, and enrich the lives of their employees, without sacrificing the bottom line. This is truly a management revolution in one of the most globalized, competitive industries on Earth. For all readers, True to Our Roots provides both a fascinating glimpse into the California wine industry and heartening proof that business can do well by doing good.
Translated from the original German, by J. With global revenue surpassing twenty-five billion dollars annually, organic agriculture is a highly visible and rapidly growing component of agricultural production. The first half of this book critically evaluates the agricultural production of both plants and livestock in organic farming systems.
All major aspects of organic agriculture are explored, including historical background and underlying principles, soil-fertility management, crop and animal production, breeding strategies, and crop protection. This global and comprehensive overview also addresses the economic, social, and political aspects of organic farming. These include economics and marketing; standards and certification; environmental impacts and social responsibility; and research, education, and extension.
The book is a unique and timely science-based international work documenting current practices in organic agriculture and evaluating their strengths and weaknesses. It's always such a pleasure to read The Rev's take on organic, indoor growing. As an indoor grower with my own proprietary brand of organic nutrients and methods, it is especially interesting because of the opportunity to learn from others who are growing with biological methods, not to mention it's also good to get an idea what the "competition" is doing.
First of all, as an experienced grower I can immediately recognize a true cannabis connoisseur based on the choice of photographs. The Rev most definitely understands that amazing cannabis doesn't always come in the form of a super-dense hydro indica nug!
The Rev, like me, seems to prefer the graceful, wispy, colorful, flavorful and exquisite Sativas. His choice of photos tells me one thing for certain: the Rev understands terpenes, root systems, environment and how to get the best of genetics using living, organic soil. In other words, if you follow what True Living Organics details, as instructed by The Rev, you'll end up with very high grade, supremely delicious cannabis.
There isn't a hint of prohibition style cannabis mythology in this book. On the contrary, the methods shared here are for those who want to grow the plant to its genetic potential. The book covers some very important points, with less redundant information than the previous edition. He covers making a soil, choosing amendments, avoiding synthetic nutrients, using clean water, making aerobic teas and making organic nutrient drenches which The Rev refers to as "spikes.
In addition to all that, True Living Organics also offers rock solid advice on building indoor grow spaces, with very useful tips throughout, and a very generous amount of support for the "micro" grower.
His recommendations for the environment are perfect as are his recommendations for lighting. The Rev offers solid instructions on how to properly water, clone, transplant, prune, feed and troubleshoot cannabis. As someone who has done all he recommends and more, I can say from personal experience that he gives sage advice and truly understands what works and what doesn't. There is even a new section on making hash using the dry-ice method and a warming plate.
I had never seen a warming plate used, but as is the norm with this book, The Rev explains the reason why in clear, to-the-point language. I have mostly high praise for this book, however when writing reviews I strive to be balanced in my approach and do not like to overlook things I might not agree with. The Rev mentions salt buildup as a problem when recycling soil. I believe that his recycling methods are to blame, as in my professional opinion he includes too much organic matter in his basic soil mix and when combined with kitchen scraps and recycled plant material into the soil the salts build up fast.
This excess organic matter is going to lower soil pH, which is the other problem he identifies especially using a peat moss based soil. I am confident that using less organic matter and simply re-supplying minerals would extend the life of the soil and increase microbial activity considerably.
Excess organic matter suppresses soil life. Another problem with The Rev's recycling methods is that the resulting soil is going to be extremely high in potassium, which will decrease certain key terpenes with successive runs.
Again, this could be avoided by simply taking care to keep potassium levels down in the original mix and not recycling so much organic material into the soil. Other than that, I am confident that any grower who follows The Rev's advice won't be disappointed in the produce! This beneficial fungus helps to feed the plant nutrients from the organic matter broken down in the soil. While saprophytic fungi are the main decomposers of the fungal kingdom, mycorrhizal fungi are responsible, either directly or by association, for the creation of strong enzymes that break down dead material sources in the soil.
Creating an optimal soil environment for mycorrhizal fungi to flourish is the backbone of the True Living Organics method, which is based on this book written by the Rev.
True Living Organic practices are not strictly for outdoor growing. You can find all the materials for sale at local garden shops, online at Amazon, and other retailers. Note that mycorrhizal fungi are extremely delicate; they can be wiped out easily. Be careful not to use any salt-based fertilizers such as synthetic chemical fertilizers. Adding salt to fungus will simply dehydrate it, similar to putting table salt on a slug.
Well-aerated soil is the key to success in the True Living Organic growing method. Make sure your soil has a wealth of aeration. Using perlite in the soil is basically like having a bunch of artificial air pockets throughout your mix.
Microbial life needs to breathe and flourish in highly aerated environments, taking advantage of all those air pockets. Coco coir is also well aerated and retains 10 times its dry weight in water. Be sure to rinse the coco coir out thoroughly: soak the bricks in a tub and drain the water out 2 or 3 times to get any salts out.
Coco coir being a coconut product, more often than not, contains salt.
