A well written book like Marijuana Horticulture: The Indoor/Outdoor Medical Grower's Bible (Paperback)
~ Jorge Cervantes (Author) or one of my favorites: The Cannabis Grow Bible: The Definitive Guide to Growing Marijuana for Recreational and Medical Use (Paperback)
~ Greg Green (Author)

I always take my guides to the printers(kinkos or similar) where I have them cut off the spine of the book and spiral bind it, so its easy to lay open when looking at details in the growing room. laugh

Seeds!!! Just kidding, I'm sure you've already have seeds/clones to plant. How about a spray bottle to mist the plants with H2O or to foliar feed. Magnifier to look at trichome development.

Odor control.
I suggest only exhaust fans, pulling fresh air in passively.

Pest prevention. Bleach water. Cleaning rags. Neem oil concentrate (Azatrol).

Water filter. If you wanna play to the strengths of an organic environment, ya gotta get rid of the biocides (chlorine, chlorimine etc) in your water source.

Additives. I would cut the ocean forest soil with either light warrior or perlite for aeration. Also consider some mycorrhizal inoculant. These benificial fungi break down nutrients allowing roots better absorption. I use Humboldt Nutrients Myco Madness. And maybe some molasses.

Harvest gear. Another grow cab with a carbon filter if you are worried about odor. If not a closet will work. Scissors or pruners, something of that nature for chopping and manicuring. Jars for curing.

A measuring cup (with Tbl and Tsp units), PH pen calibration fluid, and don't get neem oil get organicide. Here is a cheap place to get a RO machine and you absolutly need one.

I like how everyone thinks fox farms is organic... it's certainly not the organic route.


I also suggest a good book.
