I donated. I’ll hope you’re well.
Dude are you alive?. We’re lacking your knowledge here!
I wish I had come across this channel sooner !!! No one can possibly break it down simpler ,,I LOVE IT ! HIT THAT LIKE GUYS!
I'm really sorry to hear about the fire at your facility. I really enjoy your content and u have taught me a lot about growing. I hope to see u up and running soon.
i hope you are doing well, and have recovered from the fire...hope you will be sharing soon, we all miss you!!! this is one 70 yr old granny growing and appreciating you lol
I shit you not I've been trying to figure out how to break down all this information for Years and never fully understood the way I do after watching this ONCE! Thank you Robert Your The Man!!!!!!!!
Been growing for many years now coming up to 30 and love this guy. I would love to follow him around in his garden picking up more growing wisdom. 👍
Could honestly listen to u walk thru yr process lol. Good stuff, thx for sharing
I'm glad to see you back, Robert. No matter how much you know, you can always learn a thing or two from a brief class. I wish you well.
I have been watching Robert’s videos religiously and my whole op is based off his teachings, how cool your wisdom is growing girls in New York thanks man
is he ok still around?
Yooo!!! i just stumbled upon this channel accidentally while searching for a break down of fertilizer so i could learn a thing or two about my recently started garden of plants so i didn’t end up killing them. And let me just say- i love how you explain everything so well and make it simple enough that a rookie gardener like me can even understand it!! And you are funny as heck and super down to earth. I really enjoyed this video and feel like i learned a LOT!! I can’t even begin to tell you how many videos i have been watching that taught me absolutely nothing-in fact i had more questions after some of them than i did before watching them!!! Most of them are just people over complicated things and using terms and products with unfamiliar names a newbie like me has no idea about, and so many confusing soil amendments +additives foliar sprays bloom boosters organic and inorganic fertilizers etc that they tell you are all necessary and have some complex order and system to them, and the ones that don’t are mostly just trying to sell you somthin. This has been the first one i hav seen that is just to the point and soley for the purpose of informing and helping people actually learn. Its been the first video that i actually understood clearly and concisely! So glad to have stumbled upon this. Thank you so much for putting this content out there for people to watch for the free and gain so much helpful knowledge. You really don’t even know how much it has helped me , as im sure it has helped many others as well. Super appreciate the video and all of the great information in it as well. Thank you again for taking the time to do this and for spreading the knowledge and love of gardening. Keep it up!!
My uncle was 63 when he passed in 2019. He grew some really good outdoor. He trimmed the plants when they were bushy and that was about it. A little more attention and affection they would have been great but that’s my opinion. He said never ever use store bought anything, Mother Nature provides everything, you just need to go get it. He would filter his water through soil, rocks and all sorts of stuff. Kinda like a river does. Anyway he said understand what’s in your soil and the plant will do the rest. She will tell you what you need. He grew 10ft plants that gave a pound or more (not to sure). I used chemicals when I first started out. 1 grow and I went to organics. I use his methods and it’s amazing.
I’m excited to test your fertilizer recommendation on my next grow. I’ve always used a 4-4-4 and tea. Happy with the results. Maybe this will up my results. I’ll follow up in 5 months.
Im happy to see a video from you Rob!! I look forward to your videos all the time!
Thank you for you old school we respect you and for your teachings
Just found your videos, love all the knowledge you teach, can’t wait to watch more❤
Dude, I look forward to every video you post. I get more information from you in 10 minutes than I do from 2 hours of reading.
I'm an organic grower that anticipates every bit of information you're willing to share.
I hope you get a grow going very very soon.
Me too
Ditto. I have hard time retaining information in disadvantage way. Like a feller down the street from me.
Hope all is well with you, O.G.
Monkey and a football.. LOL Almost spit on my screen.. Absolutely love the content.. This is my favorite generation when it comes to learning some stuff.. Thank you for all the free knowledge.
So glad I found your channel. Subbed, your info is no nonsense and the best I have found. I've been growing for about 5 years now and still learn new things! I love your advice, the way you grow and the way you smelt down the information for us out here. I love growing, it brings me peace and harmony in my life. I love your take, it's basically how I think about this.
Excellent thank you sir
Glad to see you back!
Awesome video ,,learnt alot thanku
people need to listen to this man!!! I've been checking out bruce bugbee lately and he recommends Peters brand fert and a 20:10:20 ratio for veg, which is very little difference from your ratios that you prefer and when you got the levels dialed in you'll get a good crop. thank you for the video. your knowledge is in line with college horticulture professors studying cannabis research
Does he give a mix ratio? Now much per gallon?
Thank you Robert. Good to see you again 🌱🪴💚
Thanks bro! I recently seen you and have much of love and support for you. Thanks for teaching people 💚
Love the videos! Thanks for all the lessons
We need you back. Just found you and its been a year since last video. Good stuff.
I wish you lived in my community and knew you. I would love to work under this man and learn everything i can. I certainly know alot know and have alpt of experiences since 1993 to now. But i would certainly l9ve to learn more.
Really good information thank you for your time ..keep em coming..much love from the uk.
Thank you for the information. Much appreciated.
Thank You for the upload.
Thank you very much. I learn from every video I watch of yours.
Thank you! I just learned so much more about fertilizer and an better understanding of the uptake process of the plant. I'm just starting indoors over the winter. Very informative 🖖
Good to see you man! Sorry about the grow but glad to see ya back posting again. Prayers to you brotha
Great to see you back on YT.
🌴👍🙏👍🌴
I do the same style. gaia green 444 veg 284 flower. works perfectly.
ROB! YOUR BACK MATE!
God Bless you young man. ❤❤❤
Thank you for your time making this information so straight forward and crystal clear. Awesome wisdom very well presented. without all the bottles/containers.
I'm in my first ever grow. Under led lights. My plants are into week 6 of 8 of flowering. The flowering fertilizer I'm currently using has an N-P-K of 2-11-14.
So, during the flowering cycle, I should be using 0% to 5% Nitrogen? I meet that one. And higher Phosphurous 30%-35%. I'm well off the mark here. And higher Potassium 20%-30%. I'm well below this. A good N-P-K for flowering Cannabis would be 0-30-25?
I've been using a Cal/Mag additive since early veg and intend to do so until the end.
Thanks if you could let me know your thoughts. Great work man.
Great to see you back, I've missed your wise words.
I really appreciate you and your classes regarding everything grow! It’s all so helpful. As a first time grower, using hydroponic drip and drain to waist, I could really use some advise on SPIDER MITES! I noticed the problem at the end of veg and just before flipping. Now I’ve tried everything suggest on you tube, and they just won’t die! I haven’t seen anything suggested by you. Have you done a video on this topic? I can’t find it. I’m now going into 3rd week of flower and I’m very concerned I could loose the whole crop!
Enjoyed thank you 😊
chelated wisdom from the OSG 👍
Lord God, I lift up Robert and his family right now. I pray for showers of blessings over them. You are Jehovah Rapha our Healer! I pray for healing over his mind, property and his ladies. I pray all of these things, in You're Sons holy and precious name, Jesus Christ. Amen.
Amen
Amen
Amen from Finland 😊
Amen
Amen
Very informative. I'm using some jacks 20-10-20 citrus feed that seems to work ok.
I could listen to you all day sir!
Common sense, no Bullshit charming and an excellent presenter
Jolly good my man 🍻🇬🇧🙇♂️
Thanks from Brazil.
Im using peters orchid fertilizer 15-5-15 with the extra Ca & Mg, its working great and WAY cheaper than "cannabis" nutrients.
TY old school ive learned some good stuff & ive neen growing since 2014
Thanks for the good info!
@@OldSchoolGrowingCan you tell us the mix ratio of 10-20-30 per gallon? I hope you are doing well, brother
Very educational. This is nothing but a school of agriculture he is the most experienced profesional person on the subject. He should be a teacher because he teaches based on experienced...... Not just guessing like other CZcamsrs.
Thanks 😊
Happy to see you
Hope you can get back to growing soon! Amazing content!
please, please PLEASE, don't stop making these videos! I have just found you, and it seems im late! 6 months ago was your last video, i do hope you carry on! You sir are an inspiration to me, im mid 20''s from the UK and my god do we need your knowledge! But more than that, i just love to learn from you, which makes all the difference!
Great video !
GREAT VIDEO, PLEASE KEEP GOING !!!! THANKS AND GOD SPEED ON A NEW SET-UP.
Great video, you are incredibly knowledgeable, and I really like your advice. You remind me of an old high school science instructor, and he really made an positive impact on me. I have several question. First, how often do you fertilize. Second, how much of the solution (following the bags recommended solution concentration) are you putting on each plant. Lastly, what do you recommend for a soil, as I am currently using coco coir and am open to other options, and would love to hear what you use.
Im glad to see you. I miss you . I hope you and your family are ok ❤✌🏼
Thank you for the information. Need more cats that know what they're talking about like you
Great info
A hands on horticultural professor.Thanks for sharing knowledge you could sell a download called pro grower in a series!
We need more videos from the old school grow
So fucking happy to see you back again brother!!!
Hope ypu made out ok with the fire and such.
I am here for you if you need anything.
Rich V.
Mate your a legend
What a great guy :D
Appreciate your training videos 💯
You mentioned what NPK % you use based on HP or LED lighting but could you please educate us for outdoor natural lighting?
I grow in a greenhouse, water daily and feed twice per week. The temperature averages 120 during the day so the plants uptake quickly and perspiration quick. I applied misters on timers to avoid canoeing. My plants grow very well but looking for the added magic to finish adding more weight. You're advice is greatly appreciated.
Cheers 🍻
Dude, you’re awesome
I just ran across your channel,sorry to see the devastation you went through,keep your head up!from the videos of you your a cool old cat from way back with a tons of knowledge
Anyone know what happened with this legend? I just came across his channel started watching today and within the first 2-3 minutes I was like “this is my guy!” Lol. Hated to see his videos abruptly stopped
comming back !? nice wishes from germany🎉
💎💎💎 God bless you Robert
Hi Robert. My name is Sean , I grow recreationally @ home. I like your results and have adopted many new techniques from you tutelage. I am using the same 15-05-15 (N-P-K) 4%cal and 2% mg. What p.p.m's should I use in vegitation? Thank you for showing me the way!!! I,m OLD School myself nearing retirement!
Hello Robert
Good to see u back on youtube. I missed u. Last time I seen u , was the fire. Your looking good . Time to start the show. I always used HPS with success. Now I'm trying 650 watt LED bar light & 2 dimmable 400 watt HPS , 1 on each side, and side led lighting migros on all walls . I will shoot for 1,000 par across.
Equal and see what shakes out. Using CO2 . How would u feed this light mix system ? 4'×6'×96"expandable roller tent to 6'×6' if needed. Using 8 inch grodan blocks .
Did u save any Maui wowie?
Is there any way you can make a video for a beginner I could really use that video to start and I’d honestly would appreciate if you did it because I actually learn when I watch your videos it’s actually inspiring. I wish I could shake your hand to be honest!
Great info Robert! For the small grower - how do you mix the Nutriculture on a small scale - say for 5-gallons of water with the 15-5-15? Do you normally ramp up your feeding schedule as the plants get larger during the veg phase?
i love this. i wish i could be your mentee/assistant/ student.. i would try to soak up everything you teach brother.
I've been having so many problems with the "fancy" ferts. So glad to have found this video. There's just 2 crucial pieces of information missing from the master... How much, and how often. So much conflicting advice about that. Weekly, bi-weekly. A teaspoon. 3 teaspoons... 🤦 So frustrated. I hate learning by failure.
From what I’ve been searching
1 teaspoon per gal 15.5.15
1/2 teaspoon per gal 10.30.20
I personally feed then water then feed. If I mix the two, I do 4 half teaspoons of 10.30.20 and 1 half teaspoon of 15.5.15 in a five gallon bucket of water.
Where is the go fund me link love your videos man learn a lot more from you than my science teacher
Oh man, i hope one day brazil will have videos and masters like this ! Today weed is illegal here, and are so many growers hidden chasing their dreams 🔥
Brother you need to get back in the growing game. Lets get it!
Just found you today I hope you are doing good and getting back together from the fire
Hey Robert 👋🏻🤠
How can I find that plant marvel 15-5-15 cal mag special? I’ve looked online and can’t find that specific one. Any help is appreciated!
I love the videos man sorry to hear about the fire but I been thinking will it help the grow process if I put worms in the soil 🧐 or does it mess with the cemetery 🤔🤔
Can you go more into why you still use some N in flower?
How different would this be with an organic fertilizer like Dr. Earth?
LED’S are great but I still use a 1kw HPS in the winter to save on heating my grow room. The electric heat in my house is EXPENSIVE,lol.
Hey sry to hear about the fire :( how do you get calcium mag in flower if your using the peters?
Sorry to hear about the fire I hope you get up and running again soon!
AWESOME thanks uncle 🙏 👍 ALOHA FROM MANOA Hon hi .Mahalo
I'm sorry for what happened to you I can't wait for you to get back to growing I learn I alot from you
Thnks much sir can this be aplicable to outdoor growers
I really want to follow this teacher. Is there any channels that I can follow him?
hope all is going well!
Thank u teacher, but comeback, we need u and we love u
Can you translate how many cups per 5 gallon bucket from the 15 - 5 - 15 during VEG and 10 -30 -20 during flower ? Great Info and thank you
Я думаю, что 1 г на литр - это 100% раствор для взрослого овоща / цветочного растения, я бы предпочел начать с 1/4 дозировки 100%
How is The Old School Grower doing? Are you allright man? Hope you have the energy to stay positive and to keep fighting to get a brand new (rebuild) growroom going.

You could always consult to make money until you can start back up. That is the worst though business wise, I really hope your luck turns around. I am sure with your knowledge you will be in demand 😊
Nice job🔥🔥🚀
