Grow Talk Questions:

1.From: El Diablo: 12:00 build a soil Dear, Sir Dude & Mr. Real, I tried to order **Vital Earth Manna-Mix** at my local grow shop. But It seems Vital Earth is having problems with distribution. Sunlight Supply's has discontinued Vital Earth Manna Mix and will No longer be carrying it. I contacted my local grow shop and Vital Earth, here's the reply emails from both. Just a heads up it could be hard to find vital earth manna-mix in the future for some grows. Are there any other pre-mixed growing medium/soil that you would recommend since Manna-Mix is not available. Or should I just start mixing my own. Is it hard to mix large batches of soil and have a reliable and consistent product. If so could you do a show about mixing your own soil and some good soil mix recipes or any other special tips you may have. I really enjoy the science of growing and would like to find a well-balanced top-shelf organic soil mix. Thanks for all your Help & Hard Work.... Have a Wonderful Day!!!!

From JD: Am I right that products which advertise their ability to "sweeten" our buds with carbs (eg. bud candy, sugaree, botanicare sweet, or floranectar) are a complete scam? They are all mostly made up of sugars like fructose and sucrose which are way too big to pass the plasmallema and enter the plant. If they enhance flavor at all, it is only because they also contain a little sulfur, which can be obtained cheaply from epsom salts. These large sugar molecules don't even effectively feed the microbes in the soil which really only eat glucose/molasses. In my opinion, the molasses bundled in Recharge is all the sugar your root zone will ever need.

From Eddie: Got to say I'm digging the 3 show days a week. Questions on Pre-ripening And ripening nutrients. Ladies are in the beginning of week 4 of flowering and I know that's perfect for pre-ripeness. So I have got Mendocino Avalanche from Real Growers and know to use this in wk 5,6 and 7 and I also have Canna PK13/14 an Canna Boost what would guys use? Would love to get your 2 opinions on all this. My steak and potatoes are Canna A&B, Silica, Bio-Cozyme,and fish oh and of course RECHARGE that I'm about to cut out really soon. Growing in A Coco soil mix. Thanks for being ther for all of us.

From NY-Mike: How much yellowing is normal towards the end of flowering? Around week five I began to yellow on two of eight plants. While watering I trimmed the extremely yellow lea
