13 Nov 2023 | 💀Deadly Soil Pathogens vs Nutrient Deficiencies, Diagnosing Plant Issues, and More, with Marybeth Sanchez | 01:02:24 | |
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.

The conversation then turns towards popular microbial inputs, and the guys break down what you're getting with many of these microbe products, and where redundancies may lie. Jordan also talks about non cannabis facing brands, and how cannabis farmers can often save money by going to big ag sources for the same active ingredients.

Matt talks about some of the biggest misconceptions that students of the soil make, highlighting how often times when observing and testing soil for analytics, we take approaches that can lead to inaccurate and skewed data sets. This leads to a conversation about home growers, and Matt points out some of the common mistakes he sees when thinking about the function of soil microbes in our garden. Matt discusses how every student of the soil is always learning and growing, and he gives us some good tips to get started on our own journey of soil discovery, including microscope recommendations and more.

Jinx talks about the Seattle grow scene back in the 1990s, and explains how there really was no way to get quality cannabis seeds or cultivation education. He talks about how some of the most prolific strains that he crossed came from bag seed early on, but how Seattle was still hungry for more genetics. Jinx tells the story of how he met the late Subcool, and the huge impact that these two figures had in the Pacific Northwest cannabis seed scene. Jinx emphasizes the importance of head shops during this time, and talks about how the cheapening of the glass industry is driving out these classic venues, and depriving the next generation of an entire genre of cannabis establishment... | |||

This leads to a conversation about biocontrol extracts versus living applications, and how things like enzymes and bacterium extracts differ. Matthew wraps the show by discussing specific applications of these species, and how to work them into your IPM schedule without having redundancies or knocking back your own beneficial bio controls...

14 Apr 2025 | ⛏️ Mining Precious Metal Using Cannabis, with Song from Ginate | 00:51:02 | |
Can we actually use cannabis plants to uptake precious metals like nickel and maybe even GOLD using the power of bio-accumulation? Spectacular brand new guest Song Jin from Gaia Technologies joins the program for an absolutely incredible episode about microbes, mineral solubility, soil remediation, and more. Song talks about his journey from environmentalism work into plant health and fertilizer, and eventually what led him to create Ginate digest humate products. Song discusses some of the incredible work he now does, including his recent trip to DC for a phyto-mining summit- where they are researching how to use hyper accumulator plants to actually extract precious minerals from the ground by using a special microbial metal solubility enhancer, and process the metal out of the harvested plants. Can you imagine using cannabis to mine gold from the ground?

Wonderful friend of the show Kristina from Bloom Healthcare and formerly from the Chrom Six concentrate company joins the podcast for the very first time! Kristina gives a little background on her history cultivating in Oklahoma, and how medical legalization rocked the state- and propelled her growing career. She expands a little bit on what it's like to hunt phenotypes from seed to solvenetless, and shares some stories about losing amazing cuts from years past. This leads to a conversation about a cut that has been discussed on this show before- the legendary Chrome Cut of Duck Confit, a cross made by Terp Wizard. Kristina talks about her duck's recent "happy accident," and how the pollen is passing all sorts of raunchy and funky profiles onto the progeny- with aromas that make you physically recoil. Those are some seriously "fowl" plants!

MBS discusses the life cycles of the most common insect pests we face in the garden, and the importance of understanding how they breed. The fungus gnat (born pregnant) requires a different approach to treatment than, say, the spider mite, where sprays can be more effective in halting the entire pest cycle. This leads to a conversation about where pests like to congregate and reproduce, and how proper treatment relies upon understanding the movement patterns of insect pests as well. MBS also discusses general IPM strategies, her new toy The Microbiometer, and more... ---Master the power of microbes with home testing from www.microbiometer.com the only affordable home microbe test!

BLU MAT 10% off APRIL ONLY: use code GROWCAST at www.sustainablevillage.com The great Doctor Coco from www.cocoforcannabis.com is back on the show for an episode about optimal consistent environments, and maximizing your grow space production. Coco starts by diving deeper into some concepts that have been brought up on the show before- specifically the idea of increasing your productivity per square foot by adding more plants and vegging them for less time. While this isn't an optimal method for those in low plant count situations, the idea of only vegging for a short period of time not only increases overall production- but also reduces manual labor and labor costs... Doctor Coco also discusses the importance of consistency, calling back to an episode where he had discussed leaving your plants alone as much as possible. This leads to an interesting conversation about how it's even more important to leave your plant alone the later in life it advances. The conversation turns towards harvest, and Coco has an interesting take to share when it comes to the differences in home grown harvests depending on the season in which you're cutting down...

Michael Box from Sustainable Village is BACK and code GROWCAST is live for 10% off Blu Mats for this month only! Michael joins the program again for another banger of an episode all about watering and irrigation. Michael starts off with a brief history of irrigation practices, and how the brilliant ancient practices were eventually evolved into our modern irrigation products. This leads to a conversation about how water operates within a medium physically, and why it's more complicated than just measuring "how much" water is in your soil. 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.

09 Oct 2023 | 🤏Micronutrients, Hollow Stems, and Nutrient Antagonization, with Nik from Rooted Leaf | 01:07:55 | |
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. | |||
29 Apr 2024 | 🐛 Pests vs Your Healthy Plants, Beneficial Insects, and Pesticide Modes of Action, with Matthew Gates | 00:51:38 | |
Pest expert and instructor of Pestapalooza Matthew Gates is back on the podcast! Today Matthew discusses how the health of your plant may or may not play into garden infestations, and how we often think about how pests take hold incorrectly. Matthew explains how simply interrupting the pests "economy," and reducing their efficiency, will be a huge step in saving your garden. This goes against the "pest decides to attack or not" mentality, and Matthew emphasizes the need for more data and studies on plants' abilities to resist pests of all varieties. Matthew also talks about beneficial insects, how to use them optimally in different types of setups, and how to incorporate them into your current IPM plan. | |||

31 Oct 2022 | 🌿 Understanding Calcium, Flavonoids, and Late Flower Nutrition, with Nik from Rooted Leaf | 01:04:00 | |
Nik from Rooted Leaf (use code growcast) is back on the show for another cannabis nutrition deep dive! Today Nik joins the program and discusses how calcium is taken up and deposited by the plant, and what that means for cannabis growers. He contrasts this nutrient cycle to something like phosphorous, which requires less reapplication and isn't deposited into the plant structure the same way. This leads to a conversation about the different pathways that nutrients and plant phenols take, and how flavonoid production plays into the nutritional cycle. Nik talks about flavonoids, what they are, how they're produced, and how they end up affecting the overall cannabis consumption experience. The guys also discuss tea- the master of flavonoid production- as well as coffee, and what we can learn from these two plants as cannabis growers. | |||

Matthew also extrapolates on the cannabis plant's natural defense systems, and how we should be looking at pest dispersal. Matthew wraps up the show by talking about the relationship between brix levels and pest resistance, while also discussing the canopy aphids ability to digest high levels of sugar without any harm being done to them- despite a common misconception that their digestive systems cannot handle those levels of sugar... *LAST DAYS FOR BLU MAT CODE!

17 Feb 2025 | 🧠 Intelligent Alien Fungi Are Attacking Your Plants, and Learning Your Weaknesses, with Matthew Gates | 00:57:16 | |
Pest expert Matthew Gates is back, and this time you're in for a doozy! The boys start the show by discussing a recent infestation in Jordan's garden, of a pest that is seemingly less common in indoor spaces: leaf miner type insect pests. Often confused with thrips damage, these particular pests need to be approached with a totally different strategy, and Jordan shares his non scientific trial of spraying down his plants with an abundant solution of living nematodes. The conversation turns to powdery mildew- which is one of the oldest, most ancient, fast spreading, and adaptable plant pests on planet Earth. Not only do these intelligent species of fungi adapt their genes to resist your attacks as a farmer, but they can mutate and adapt in as little as a few weeks. Also, the fact that PM relies on similar pathways as beneficial fungis like myco, may point to a hint that PM was once a beneficial, who has since gone rogue and turned to the dark side. If it's true, as many mycologists theorize, that fungi can survive space travel, and may have been some of the first life to land on this planet via asteroid, then this enemy your dealing with is a truly ancient, and highly intelligent one.

10 Dec 2024 | ☀️The BIG DIFFERENCE Between the Sun and Your Grow Light, with Dr. Coco | 01:00:57 | |
Dr. Coco from www.cocoforcannabis.com returns the to show for an incredibly informative episode in a new series where we examine the major differences between indoor and outdoor growing. Today we start with maybe the most significant difference that you can image: the difference between the sun, and the grow light in your home grow setup. Dr. Coco discusses the concept of light spectrum, and how grow light technology has evolved to have two main peak points of light within the full spectrum. This differs, he explains, from the incredibly full and rich spectrum of the sun- which Dr. Coco says is not truly replicable by any modern light tech. This leads to a conversation about UV light, which Dr. Coco isn't a huge fan of... Which begs the question, if the sun is so different from our grow light, how important is that difference anyways?
