Describe your vibe.
Easy going. I like to think that growing is both art and science, like cooking. There are many good ways to get a good result.
First or favorite tattoos?
I don’t know if I have a favorite. But my get-what-you-get ones definitely had their own sense of excitement to them.
Preferred consumption method?
Inhalation. I’m a fan of bongs for the quick hits, but prefer something rolled for when I’m feeling classier. Also it’s hard to go wrong with dabs.
Favorite quote?
“If you’re the smartest one in the room you’re in the wrong room.”
Typical wardrobe or wardrobe staple?
Black classic vans, black dickies pants, black pro club shirt.
If you could only have 3 items (growing related or non) on a deserted island what would they be?
A magical self-filling cooler full of food and beverages. A grill/smoker. A large/varied music collection and player.
What era should you have been born into?
This one seems about right.
Wildest thing about you?
Hard to say, not really that wild of a person.
If your best friend were to describe you in 3 words, what would they be?
Chill, driven, passionate.
How, where and why did you start growing?
In my first apartment back in 2010-ish. Rigged up a super basic set of lights in my closet and tried my best to grow something decent. Definitely had no idea what I was doing at the time.
What drew you toward cannabis cultivation?
I was interested in it initially because I wanted more access to consume something of my choosing versus whatever was available at the time. Then there was the part of doing it that was subversive, so that made it fun. Over time I found more benefits and enjoyment from it, so I kept doing it.
What made you choose to use Maxi Series?
I had heard good things. It seemed easy, and I figured it would go a long way based on how much you get for the price.
Why do you love MaxiSeries?
It is easy to use, cost effective, and my plants like it.
How has the quality / flavor improved in your plants since switching to Maxi Series?
Because they were overall a bit happier, they had a stronger start and therefore finished stronger too.
Who would you recommend MAXI Series to?
New growers. People looking for a simple solution to cover their needs. DWC growers.
How many gallons of nutrient solution do you use per day?
Variable. I have a couple different set ups between coco and dwc. On average 3-5.
What’s the most important part of picking a nutrient?
Efficiency if efficacy.
Why did you choose a water soluble fertilizer?
Most efficient for a commercial cultivation.
What is more important to you – cost or precision?
Precision, but a balance between both is preferred
Do you use any supplements? If so, what do you use and why?
Yes I do, mostly in bloom. Cal-mag throughout the cycle but is the only addition in veg. I hit a baseline and then add my supplements to push the feed where I want it to go as far as ppm and nutrient ratio.
Cal-mag gets added because I mostly grow in coco, but also because I like to make sure there’s plenty available for the plants that like higher amounts of these.
Silica for resistance and strength.
Rezin from Green Planet because I have noticed a huge difference in using it, and it doesn’t change pH or ppm.
A PK spike heavier in P in the first week of bloom to front-load this nutrient. This is to trigger flower set earlier, as well as to benefit yield. Bud Blood from Advanced is usually my pick.
A bloom booster like Big Bud (Advanced) or King Kola (Emerald Harvest) to boost yield and keep the flowers producing.
B-52 from Advanced or Emerald Goddess from Emeralf Harvest because of the biostimulants like kelp, B1 and humic acids, etc.
A sweetener/carb like Honey Chome from Emerald Harvest. To feed the microbes and mycorrhizae I’ve got in my root zone in coco. Although I’ve been thinking of trying Botanicare Raw or FloraNectar from your company just to see what those are like.
Humic and Fulvic acids because I believe in maximizing uptake. Currently finishing up some bottles of some locally made stuff but was thinking of trying Diamond Nectar from your company to reduce down a bottle in the mix.
Overdrive from Advanced as the late phase booster and ripening agent for that last push.
Flawless Finish from Advanced to help with chelating out nutrients and flushing my plants.
What growing media do you use and why?
Coco coir in plastic pots mostly. I like that I have the control over watering and feeding since I do it by hand, so that aspect is akin to hydroponics through lack of soil nutrient and my control of it. But because it gets handwatered in pots, it still let’s me feel like
