I went into my bud room this mornin and it smells like amonia. I am gowing in soil using bat guanos for nutes. I also have a co2 system. can anyone please help?
I checked for mold but could not find any. It seems to be coming from the soil on some of the plants.
No I dont let any animals into my room. They can bring pests or eat on them. I am using guano's and making teas to feed all organic. I alsohave been giving them super thrive.
probably just that high nitro guano, and if your use high phos guano i have no idea what the hell you got going on.
My last feeding I gave them a high dose of Mexi Bat which is high in N. Ialso gave them some peruvian sea bird which is high in both. That will be the last time I give any large amounts of N.
That's High Nitrogen! Take and put a little feline pine on the surface and water. It's a cat litter ... Will cause the microbes to fix the extra nitrogen with the wood bits. Move on it my friend... Not too much but not too little...
It's a brand made from pine. It's what I use to create humus over a long time. See the idea is that greens ( guano ) and browns ( feline pine ) are the two things microbes eat. The pine uses some of the nitrogen up. I practice laying down some brown when I add nitrogen rich stuff.. Like a 1 to 3.. 1 part to three parts nitrogen. In your case a little sprinkle will do well.. Not too much like one pellet every inch. How big is your container?
Nice Avi.. I don't have experience with bags so I have to back off that.. They drain I hope? Well in any case watch the amount of guano. I use a planter box so it's all about decomposition of materials.. I'm on the hardcore side of organic growing so you need to guage that for yourself. You may want to do different with bags. It's on you.. With the soil , roots and microorganisms oxygen is a must.
Thanks again. The bags do drain they have hole on lower side an bottom. My soil is a mix of sunshine and fox farm big n chunky perilite it is the same way i have done it for two years now never had this problem before though. will try your feline pine will keep posted of results.
Go light and see. It's a long term thing but bio-activity is what separates Organic grows from chemical ones.
