Nice thats what up, I have noticed using heavy sugars like real maple syrup, honies, cocunut sugars, plus pretty much anything you could find locally at whole foods or vitamin cottage and I havent really stuck with any one thing, its nice to see the flowers letting off globs of syrup from near the buds, some of that sticky icky lol...
From the testing I have done with cutting fresh harvested branches sitting in water, the best tastes for me was a slight bit of blackstrap + orange pulp mixture for a short time. Any of the sugars too long will make for a very harsh smoke and if you use black food coloring it will turn the flower black/purple but taste like death and you will surely lose some custies lol...but I could see some interesting combinations with things like mushrooms...but ultimately I kinda went for building the flavors up over the course of flower and not worrying about sitting them in a flavored water flower vase, which can be fun!
Yeah basically just isolating your teas so you have your different pulps in different areas so you can give you bubba kush all blueberry teas, or your 1980s south beach triangle kush all orange teas or what have you. Last weeks tea run I did pineapple, orange, banana, blueberry, strawberry and a veg tea and they all got a good mix of micros and other amendments plus whatever I feel like adding, will add a little bit of bioboost to the flower teas but dont like to add too much of that. Since I am using so many ingridients and other flower boosters when appropriate I try to avoid using anything alfalfa/tria related because I have lost alot of yield and quality because of it over the years mixing it with other stuff. I have used alot of those down to earth boxes and still have about 10 along with just using organic stuff available like dandelions and who knows what else.
I am definitely not knocking any of the Korean farming or FPE type of stuff and I have seen that interesting techniques of letting the fruit pulp just sit for months that is suppose to smell good, but personally I cant see it. I feel itsbest just blendering the pulp and getting it to them right away before it gets absorbed by the environment and each fruit has a laundry list of benefits/ drawbacks which once figured out combining them would rival any nutrient lines with the added benefits of easily attainable natural terps. Some clean organic weed that all tastes and smells like a specially tailored smoothie is the way to go from what I have seen.
As to how important naturally mixing the fruit pulp with a mulch layer having both bugs and worms to help I cannot say but with small pots using conventional soil there was definitely something missing in the health and yield department when compared with 40-60 gallon individual no tills pots.
Well its good to have some qualified people chiming in and helping the art of the best tasting cannabis along. Thats interesting about the quartz I have used old water from dremmelling a quartz candle holder once and thought about how good it would be as compared to other forms of rock dust, plus I love to leave my minerals in my pots for the bugs to play with. I have used them in a bubble cloner but they got slime on them so its better if they can stay more on the dry or to use ones that arent as nice lol but luckily there is plenty of quartz/mica/lychen pieces to be found.
Plus the best thing you could use is some ashes from a loved person/animal in your no till pots so you can always have them with you helping and hopefully making you feel at peace. Thanks for the imput on soil balance pro I will have to look into it, always nice to try new organic products. Think right now I have Rootweb Star, OG Biowars,
azos, mycos, and a few others not to mention using compost and things of that nature.
Regards.
