GrowCast Team Member and legendary natural farming expert Marybeth Sanchez is back on the program! MBS is wrapping up her harvest on her amazing property, and talks about her full season cycle and regenerating her land. The conversation turns towards helping growers identify issues in their garden, and Marybeth shares some important tips on identifying problems. She starts by focusing on soil borne pathogens and how they attack your plant tissue DIFFERENTLY than nutrient issues. This is an important distinction because many growers misdiagnose a pathogen as a deficiency, and try to treat the issue with more minerals- which will only worsen the problem. This leads to a larger conversation about how to approach a deficiency in general, and how you should address all other possible solutions before just adding more nutrients.

Korean Natural Farming expert and regenerative evangelist Chris Trump is back on the show for a whole episode about organic farming! Chris talks about the most important aspects to focus on when starting out KNF and incorporating it into your setup. He goes on to explain some of the finer points of IMO collection, composting temperatures, and the complex consortium of microbes that is required to drive a thriving living soil garden. Chris discusses the "sweet spot" when it comes to temperature and microbiology, explaining what happens to the biology when we go too cold, or too hot beyond that point. Chris wraps up the show by talking about his travels and his work outside of cannabis, and how he sees the world shifting to a more sustainable, regenerative mindstate.

First time guests Doug and Leanne from Hygrozyme are on the program! Today they are here to discuss the inception of Hygrozyme, how enzymes interact with the soil food web, and more. Doug and Leanne talk about the enzymes that are contained in Hygrozyme, the secret recipe, and how these specific enzymes like cellulase operate in and benefit a living soil system. This leads to a conversation about chitin and chitinase, and how this hormone inducer will benefit the immunological processes in your plant such as terpene and flavanoid production. Team Hygrozyme wrap up the show by talking about home grow tips, and how soil growers specifically can boost the microbiome in their garden for heavier, stickier harvests!

Friend of GrowCast but first time guest Sun God Seeds joins us! Today he is on the line to discuss his epic breeding work, selecting for harsh environments, and more!

This leads to a conversation about utilizing what's around you, and growing for your environment. The conversation turns towards pheno hunting, and Sun God explains what drives his selection process when he does large scale 100+ plant hunts. He also talks about how he views breeding, and how to intentionally and quickly bottleneck certain traits that you are looking to isolate. Sun God wraps up the show by going in depth into some of his new strains, how they express, and what's next on the menu for Sun God seeds.

Good friend of the show Miles of WeedShouldTasteGood is back on the program! Today Miles discusses all of the natural farming, education, and breeding work that he has been up to since we last spoke- and he gives some amazing tips on soil growing as well! Miles breaks down how the bacteria in his ferments work, and how he applies a variety of recipes to the same fermentation process to see their different results on cannabis. Miles shares some recent shifts in perspective when it comes to growing with these ferments, and he also points out several common mistakes and misconceptions that he thinks many soil growers of the world hold. Miles wraps up the show by discussing his breeding work, and highlights some of the new pollinations and hunts where he is working with both landrace strains and poly hybrids.

Nik from Rooted Leaf (use code GROWCAST) is back on the line to wrap up the soil nutrient elements in our Nutrient Deep Dive series! Nik catches us up with a quick recap and then dives into a few of the most important micronutrients, or the nutrients that are required in very small quantities. Nik talks about what those nutrient ratios should look like, and how minerals like Potassium will be needed in vastly greater quantities than the micronutrients we discuss today. Silica is first up, as Nik explains how it plays into cell structure and more. This leads to a conversation about Boron, and what causes plants to develop hollow stems. Iron and Manganese are next on the list, and Nik tells us what we need to do to ensure that these minerals are not only present, but also available in solution- highlighting the importance of proper PH, and understanding how nutrients antagonize one another.

Potent Ponics Steve is back on the show! Our good friend returns from Thailand to do some gigging around the US while Thai politics and turmoil shakes out in the cannabis industry. Steve tells us stories from his time doing large scale soil grows in Thailand. He talks about the different strains that he got to observe and experience while traveling the Thai countryside, and he talks about the different profiles he experienced as well as the interesting local names. Steve discusses the struggles of growing in the Thai setting, with heavy pest pressure from insects like thrips and more. This leads to a conversation about IPMO, or indigenous predatory micro organisms, and how we can utilize the natural pest devouring microbes found all around us. Steve wraps the show by diving into soil microbiology in general, and where he thinks many growers hold misconceptions. GrowCast Membership (bonus content, member discounts, member discord and more!)

Our good friend Chitown Canna Chica is back on the program for the first time in while- and she has plenty of updates to share! Canna Chica talks about what she has been up to since last we spoke, and how many different strains she's gone through in the mean time. She talks about some of the standout strains that she has worked with in recent memory, and breaks down some of their flavor profiles and growth habits. This leads to a conversation about a special cut that got mauled by a rabbit that had intruded in her indoor grow space... Remember that pests can come in many shapes and sizes :D Chitown wraps the show by talking about her growing style, how she likes to switch up different nutrient regimens, and how she also likes to bring plants from outside into her grow room during certain parts of the year... She also talks about the experiments she's done with electroculture, and how it's a fun addition because it couldn't really hurt to try!
