Issue #536 - Sunday, July 24, 2022
Dear Fellow Grower,
In today's issue...
- What the heck is re-vegging? The word is short for re-vegetating and if you've ran into it by accident, you've encountered the tell-tale signs. Every new leaf only has one lonely finger. Some of the fingers on new leaves are round. The buds stop growing and even start dying. Why is this happening? And here's an even crazier question: why do some growers do this on purpose?
- Check out a preview of the buds I just harvested! They're currently at the lab being tested for THC and terpenes. Next week this section is going to be full of lab results from multiple experiments!
- Almost every grower being featured in this week's "trophy Pics of the Week" section had a bit of plant confusion. Some think they have plant problems when all they have is some beautiful cannabis...but some of them might be right about their plants. Check out the trophy pic section below and see who's who!

“Just Add Water” Super Soil Grow Guide: Easy Organic Weed
Is organic growing in your future? Want a “just add water” growing experience? Maybe you’re thinking about growing weed for the first time. Or you’ve already grown a few cannabis plants and want to try something new. Either way, if you want to grow organic weed the easy way, this tutorial was made just for you!
As more people are legally able to grow cannabis at home, organic grow methods are gaining popularity. Consumers demand better choices. It used to be difficult for many people to get organic cannabis (black market weed was rarely grown organically). Now you can grow your own. With the right technique, it’s surprisingly easy to grow organic weed at home. In fact, growing organically may actually be easier than other grow
methods!
Why grow organic weed using this tutorial?
- Make Soil Do the Work for You – The method in this article creates a soil environment that does most of the work of growing for you, just like in nature.
- Buds May Taste & Smell Better – Many growers believe that growing organic weed (properly) creates the best bud taste and most complex bud smell of any grow method. There are also reports that organic weed tends to be smoother to smoke. In my tests, buds grown in Super Soil had lab results with higher overall levels of terpenes
(smells) than clones grown in coco coir in otherwise identical conditions. Check out some of our other cool growing experiments.
- Safer – Organic growing lets you know what’s in your weed. When you’re buying weed from someone else, you have no idea what chemicals or pesticides may have been used during the grow process. Even if you’re growing for yourself, nutrient companies are not legally bound to list all ingredients in their products. That means you may be unknowingly giving your plants unwanted ingredients if you use bottled nutrients or
supplements. Even worse, some nutrient companies have been busted for including illegal compounds (such as synthetic PGRs) that are known to be harmful to humans. Organic grow methods give you confidence that there aren’t potentially dangerous human-made compounds getting deposited into your weed.
- Nutrient Ratios – Never worry about mixing bottles of nutrients to get the perfect nutrient ratio for your plant’s stage of life. If you follow the instructions on this page, your plants won’t get nutrient deficiencies and you won’t need to do anything to prevent
them. In fact, this method lets your roots “pick and choose” which nutrients to uptake, so your plant gets exactly the right nutrients at the right time.
- Easier – This tutorial teaches you how to complete a “just add water” grow. Once you’re set up, you mainly just water your plants every few days for a few months until harvest. When it comes to plant care, this particular grow method is one of the least time-consuming.
Buds grown in super soil are higher quality with less work than many other methods

Buds sent to the lab – July 22, 2022
Here’s a preview of some of the buds after they were dried and jarred. I’ve sent samples to the lab and should have the final results of the whole grow journal (weights, THC, terpenes, smoke test, and more!) for you next week.

"Hello Nebula and Sirius. I love the idea of sharing recipes. I want to share my new favorite way to consume my weed. I use weed *mostly* to help with sleep so I grow mostly Indica dominant strains. I make a simple syrup that I use to sweeten my chamomile tea at bedtime and I sleep like a baby. I make it in my Magic Butter Machine but you can make it on top of the
stove.
- 2 cups water
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 tsp of lecithin powder or liquid
- 14 gms of decarbed weed
- @160 degrees and the 1-hour button
- Strain and store in the fridge.
My favorite strain right now is Seedsman's Blueberry. I *feel* it is in the 17% THC range so this makes my syrup about 5 mg per ml. I put 1 teaspoon in my tea so guessing around 25 mg per cup. Goodnight!
Thank you for all you do. Stay safe."
~Sandra
Weed syrup that I can just pour on/in anything? Yes, please!
Seriously, I already made a batch of this stuff and it's great in coffee with a little hazelnut creamer. I love these recipes, ya'll! ~Sirius
"Just a word of thanks for setting up a great newbie website. 3 weeks and $300 worth of equipment later and I'm growing two clones. I bought a 2x2x3 tent. Not big enough."
~Terrys1st
I know a 2x2x3 seems small for now, but hold on to it for later. I used to grow in a 4x4x8 tent exclusively, but I've come to love my little tent as much as my big tent. ~Sirius

"At first I thought maybe I accidentally pulled a small leaf off when I had pinched my plant. Then I realized that it never had a leaf there to begin with when I looked back through my pictures. Then upon closer observation I realized on the other side, one of the smallest leaves was actually still attached to the other bigger leaf beside it. There are two mutations on this plant. On one side the 7th leaf is missing. On the other side the
7th leaf is still attached to the fifth leaf."
~Katterlynn
I love little mutations like this. They're completely harmless, but they're fun to find. Good eye, Katterlynn! 🕵️♀️ ~Sirius

You don't ever want to have to use pest control in your grows, but if you do, this is one of the coolest ways to go about it! 🏆 ~Sirius
"This plant developed a flower on her leaf. Never saw this before. Pix aren't the best but Buds are fattening - better pic soon. Thank you for the firecracker recipe. YUMMY."
~Lloyd
Another cool mutation! This is one of my faves; I just think the fan leaves look so cool with a little bud on them even if it's not practical. If this plant had a desk job, they would show up a little early and leave a little late everyday 😂~Sirius

"Super Sativa Seed Club - Sweet Bourbon Kush Auto. Grown in Solo Cup, using Megacrop and under the Mars SP3000 👍
P.S I love your site, keep up the good work 👏"
~The Mugwamp
Congratulations on a fantastic Solo Cup Grow! This is no easy feat, but if you can pull it off, it shows you can grow cannabis in pretty much anything! 🥇 ~Sirius

Scamming is so in style!
Did you know the US Department of Justice(DOJ) has an entire section of its site dedicated solely to Coronavirus-based scams?
Think about that for a minute. So many scams were built to take advantage of the pandemic, they had to start differentiating between these new scams and your everyday, garden-variety scams.
That means that the DOJ had to have tons of meetings, hire/reallocate employees, and delegate responsibilities to deal with this new fraud department. Fraudsters move so fast, we're all collectively spending tons of money just to keep up with their methods.
Pretty please, stay on the lookout for scams. The only money being spent on scammers should come from them being busted.
Remember when it comes to buying seeds: Real seed businesses don't contact you. They let you contact them. If anyone messages you to sell you seeds on social media, look out! It's possible they will take your payment and send nothing. Always take a second to think before sending money to anyone, especially if they contact you (whether by DM, text message, phone
call, email, etc.).
Recommended Cannabis Seed Sources
These sources have gotten great reviews from our readers:
- Seed Supreme – California, United States
- ILGM (I Love Growing Marijuana) – California, United States
- Herbies Seeds – Europe (seemingly out of the UK and Spain)
We encourage you to forward this email to a friend in need!
GrowWeedEasy.com has hundreds and hundreds of pages!
Check out some articles you may not have seen...
- Thrips - Why did we use the first article in this section to talk about thrips? Because thrips looooove organic weed. Pests of all types love unguarded plants, but thrips are quick and don't immediately cause lots of damage. This makes them easy to miss in addition to them being so prevalent. Learn about thrips
beforehand and it'll be a breeze getting rid of them if you ever see them.
-
All-Natural Pesticides – Safe Up to Harvest! - If you're going to grow truly organic weed, it only makes sense that any pesticides you use would
also be organic. Luckily, most pests that prey on cannabis plants are very susceptible to organic pesticides. So, instead of spraying your plant with something that worries you, opt for pesticides made from ingredients you know and trust.
-
How to Prevent Bugs (Outdoor Cannabis Pest Guide) - This article - written by guest grower JennyBee698 - is about a different
method of dealing with pests in your garden. IPM (Integrated Pest Management) fits well with our natural pesticides article (above), but it goes a step further including the introduction of insect species that prey on the unwanted pests in your garden.
- 10 Heartbreaking Moments in Growing Weed - We released this article a bit over a month ago, but we got
so many responses that I thought I'd give readers another chance to see it here. One cool thing about this page is that we've been through everything listed on it. So if you're in a bad plant situation, you're not alone!

"Growing cannabis can be a relaxing hobby in and of itself, but it also saves you money and keeps you from having to deal with shady characters. Cannabis is much easier to grow than people give it credit for, and growing in water doesn't increase the difficulty much, if any.
