BuildASoil 3.0 comes in one cubic foot bags; Jeremy dumps a full one into the Earth Box

Ep 010

Soil sample amount for lab: a couple of cups (saturated paste); 'the tiniest scoop ever' (standard test) volume

Jeremy contrasts the saturated paste sample (a couple cups) with the standard soil test which uses 'the tiniest scoop ever, kind of silly'

Ep 010

Soil volume in 10-gallon container: 7.5 gallons of soil in a 10 gallon container (leaves 2.5 gallons of headroom) volume

Jeremy deliberately left headroom in the 10-gallons for a pre-flower top dress preload.

Ep 024

Soil volume in 7.5-gallon bag beds: 30 gallons (four 7.5-gallon bags) volume

Jeremy estimates the small-container beds hold about 30 gallons of soil plus top dressings.

Ep 029

Soil volume in a 10-gallon container: ~7.5 gallons of soil volume

Actual soil fill in a nominally 10-gallon fabric pot — the reason he has to supercharge them

Jeremy references the 70 gallons of soil they made in the earlier episode to justify a 3.5 gallon water application

Ep 007

Below this volume a compost pile will not go hot; above, it has enough energy in one spot

Thermal composting threshold (cubic feet): 27 cubic feet volume

1 cubic yard expressed in cubic feet; matches three Take-and-Bake kits combined

Ep 005

Thermal composting threshold (gallons): 200 gallons volume

Jeremy's stated equivalent for 1 cubic yard

Ep 005

Tomato container in use (too small): 10 gallon volume

Jeremy acknowledges 10 gallon breaks his 15 gallon minimum for full season tomatoes

Top-water volume per EarthBox plant when reservoir is dry: about half a gallon per plant volume

Jeremy top-waters about half a gallon of feed solution per plant to rebuild the top layer without flooding the reservoir.

Ep 029

Total finished soil volume from one Take-and-Bake kit: 70 gallons (approx 9 cubic feet) volume

The entire recipe makes 70 gallons. The 9 cubic foot figure is the dose size for the pre-measured mineral and nutrient kits.

Ep 002

Transplant drench water batch volume: 3 gallon bucket (or 5 gallon sprayer) volume

Jeremy demonstrates mixing the drench in a three-gallon bucket of water, and says the alternative is a five-gallon bucket if following the tablespoon-per-five-gallon rule.

Ep 002

Transplant drench water volume: approximately 3 to 3.5 gallons volume

Jeremy mixes his transplant drench in roughly three to three and a half gallons of warm filtered water

Ep 010

Vegetable container size in quadrant four: 3 gallon (some fives) volume

AJ says these are threes or fives, yeah threes, surprised how well they're doing in such a small pot.

Ep 025

Volume threshold for hot-spot risk: 1 cubic yard (batches above this are more likely to go hot) volume

'They are prone to heat up especially if we go over one cubic yard in volume so if you buy two of these kits and you make them all at the same time it might go hot.'

Ep 003

Water for wetting-in the batch: 3.5 gallons volume

5% of the 70-gallon soil volume — the total water Jeremy uses to wet the entire mix on the day of mixing.

Ep 003

Water volume applied to the 3x3: 3.5 gallons (one full sprayer) volume

Five percent of 70 gallons equals 3.5 gallons — the exact capacity of his pump sprayer

Ep 007

Water volume for nematode drench: about 1.5 gallons (one and a half gallons) volume

The amount Jeremy pre-loaded in his watering can before dumping in the nematode powder; he says he'd already watered for the day so he only needs a small carrier volume

Ep 019

Watering-in runoff target: just a little runoff, not pouring out volume

Jeremy wants to see a tiny bit of runoff to confirm the full profile is wetted, but says if the water pours out the bottom you have gone too far.

Ep 002

Ep 011

quadrant three watering dose per event: roughly 0.375 gallons (half of three quarters of a gallon) volume

Ep 041

Branson's Royal Revenge #12 dry weight: 6 ounces 24 grams weight

Biggest single-plant yielder of the entire Season One — grown in the 10-gallon Light Soil container, about a half pound off a 10-gallon plant

Ep 041

Branson's Royal Revenge #5 dry weight: 3 ounces 11 grams weight

The finicky over-watered Mountain Compost back-right plant that came back with loud GMO funk and Long Valley purple — lightest of the four Branson's in its quadrant

Ep 041

Branson's Royal Revenge #8 dry weight: 7 ounces 19 grams weight

Fruitier Branson's that Jeremy walks through and dismisses from contention — still respectable yield but did not make the cut on flavour

Ep 041

Branson's Royal Revenge #9 dry weight: 2 ounces 16 grams weight

Cannabilized in the 3x3 by stretcher Halitosis neighbors — beautiful frosty flower with visible empty pockets where bud could have filled in

Ep 041

Halitosis #1 approximate dry weight: not explicitly numbered — grown in the Earth Box between the two 3x3 plants weight

Jeremy pulls Halitosis #1 out of the Earth Box and describes it as reminiscent gluey texture and extremely potent but short on odor, without reading a number off the list

Ep 041

Halitosis #2 dry weight: 8 ounces 3 grams weight

Runner-up to #8 — bigger volume in the bin thanks to gluey grease factor, two buddies took the cut to run outdoor

Ep 041

Halitosis #4 dry weight: 4 ounces 8 grams weight

Grown in the 3.0 recycled no-till quadrant — lighter yield attributed partly to nutrient-loaded recycled 3.0 and partly to genetics leaning round rather than spear

Ep 041

Halitosis #8 dry weight: 7 ounces 19 grams weight

The fuel-forward headband-adjacent current frontrunner — great yield in the 3x3 with easy trim

Ep 041
