*NEW HOME HASH MAKING GUIDE AVAILABLE NOW FOR GROWCAST MEMBERS ONLY* Brand new guest of the show JLS Monster is on the program for an episode all about washing for hash and pressing it into rosin! JLS gives a brief background on what brought him into the world of cannabis, and how pursuits of certain medical strains for his partner led him to create his own rosin at home- and eventually end up breeding specifically for washing. Monster talks about what makes a good hasher strain, and how you can use your senses in your garden when trying to get an idea of which cultivar will do well in the wash and press. JLS walks us through the glove test, where he describes different consistencies of resin and emphasizes which consistencies do the best when it comes to return percentages. JLS also extrapolates on his favorite hasher strains, both of his own creation and also classics that he has washed with great success in the past.

Steve aka Potent Ponics returns to GrowCast for a podcast all about FISH! Steve is a talented and knowledgeable cultivator with a vast amount of grow knowledge, but today we are returning to his roots of aquaponics to discuss one of the most fascinating cultivation styles on Earth. Steve talks about the easiest ways for home growers to incorporate an aquaponics setup- the only setup that produces meat protein! This turns to a conversation about simply incorporating some aquatic microbes even if you aren't an aquaponics grower- this means adding something like fish waste, aquarium water, or even creek/pond water under the right conditions. Steve also talks about the work he is doing with the Natural Farming AI Chat Bot, and how the bot has been shining when it comes to questions that pertain to specific geographic locations.

The one and only Marybeth Sanchez from Team GrowCast is back on the program for an episode all about helping home growers just like you identify deficiencies with confidence! Marybeth teases some upcoming work she will be doing with us here at GrowCast to create a deficiency deep dive series. She goes on to talk about how once you've nailed down which mineral is lacking in the plant- the first step isn't always to just add more minerals. MBS shares the telltale signs of sulfur deficiency, focusing on where the yellowing occurs and how it progresses. She also highlights how this differs from the very rare iron deficiency- and how we can correct these different mineral deficiencies with inputs that are easy to find and safe for the plant. MBS also discusses why humic acids are always so highly recommended when it comes to improving nutrient uptake- especially when your plant is lacking in micronutrients.

Creator of Rooted Leaf Nutrients (use code GROWCAST) Nik is back on the line for an episode all about heavy metals! On this round of our nutrient/element deep dive, Nik discusses the less desirable elements that exist in soil. Mercury, lead, cadmium, and more- these are the elements you DON'T want your plant to uptake or interact with. First Nike explains how these elements occur in nature, and how various industrial processes also contribute to heavy metal extraction and contamination. He goes on to talk about how these elements short circuit and interfere with the plant's ability to grow and develop properly- making them a major threat to healthy plant production. Nik also talks about how to lock up these elements within soil, and how chelation through the use of compounds like humic acids can lock away these harmful substances rendering them benign.

Michael also recaps on his work with moisture retention curves AKA moisture release curves- and how water doesn't dry out of all mediums equally! Michael points out the finer points of understanding soil saturation, and how the different properties of your medium affect the physics within.

Brandon Rust is back on GrowCast- apologies for the extra foul language as Brandon comes in hot while discussing the incredible injustice that is taking place in the Oklahoma Cannabis Community. Brandon emphasizes the need for the industry to organize, mobilize, and put legal pressure on the entities that are virtually extorting and destroying countless cannabis businesses, one after another. The conversation shifts towards Brandon's breeding work including the long list of lime work he's done- and Brandon discusses what he thinks about the classic topic of "old school weed vs new school weed." Brandon gives us a sneak peek of what's to come from his breeding work before moving on to maybe his favorite subject: humic and fulvic acids. Brandon talks about how these products are NOT created equally, the different processes they may or may not undergo, and how that determines the effectiveness in our gardens.
