Or all the plastics with PBA ........our west facing beaches are made of plastic! Just imagine if no one picked up the trash that floats to shore.....
There is nowhere to hide anymore, even if some things are made without all these toxins, we've been using them for so long and they all end up in our oceans. Just one example without getting too pissed off and depressed this early in the morning- fish are full of toxins and fish meal is an organic fertilizer.
Seriously, is anything truly organic these days?
My mother's an RD and she was a guest interviewee for CNN Latino (or is that Latino CNN? I can't remember) a few months ago. The topic? GM foods and products (we can't forget the cotton).

To this day many nutrient manufacturers have not disclosed the active or "secret" ingredients of their questionable products. We are told this is to keep any trade secrets from getting out but its fairly well known that any 'secrets' in this business are old news in the horticulture/agronomy department. People are buying products without any knowledge or concern of what said products contain. I know too many growers that moaned when Phosphoload was banned and when Gravity was taken off the shelves. Whether you use marijuana for recreational or medicinal use, its ridiculous to take a largely harmless plant and spray chemicals on it that are not allowed on food crops that can make your plant harmful if consumed.
Im a bit of a Blackstone libertarian in that i think if you want to hurt yourself, you can go ahead and do it as long as you harm no others. However many of the people buying these products and spraying their plants with these harmful chemicals DO NOT grow for just their own needs. Many provide to dispensaries where their chemical sprayed product is SOLD AS MEDICINE, or to an illicit market where unsuspecting buyers are consuming a product that's more harmful than they've come to know. Marijuana is by astronomical proportions the most consumed somewhat-illicit substance in the world, and that's because its comparatively a harmless substance with many [potential] health benefits. But once you start spraying your cannabis with some of these plant growth regulators/retardants (PGR's) and systemic fungicides and insecticides (but that's a whole separate discussion), you're creating a potentially harmful product and providing it to a large group of consumers/patients who are unwittingly consuming marijuana that's now more harmful to consume than in the history of its existence.
We've all heard that nobody has died from smoking weed. Well, with a new standard of harmful PGR's and systemics sweeping through the growers community, i think that might change soon. there has already been a medical marijuana/AVID related death. Its just a matter of time before peoples health starts getting compromised form the consumption of these mystery PGR products and systemics.

Don't wanna bump an old thread but def related...
So here in beautiful CO we have some amazing extract folks who are turning their entire mip grow into bho.
The idea from one friend is that because the return is based on oil produced from flowers, he's blowing shit up with synth and products like gravity, snowstorm in order to hit 2+ per 1kw; vs growing with non synth, no additives getting around 1.3 per 1kw (m.e.d.'s stats not his personal).
His argument is that he produces at least 50% more extract from the synth pgr grown flowers vs "organic" and tht the pgrs don't make it into his finished extract product (no tests to back this up as of yet). Essentially better extract business practice to pump the plants with chems only to isolate the medicinal properties from the carbon based plant materials.
This brought me to question what others had originally posted in this very thread about pgrs lowering oil and terpine, as well as flower production. While it seems to make a clear difference (good vs bad from medical stand) in the state of the flower upon harvesting, it is nearly impossible to tell the difference between the pgr grown extract, unlike the clear difference of flowers. (except if you see which flower batches yield 50% more extract!)
I'm curious if pgrs can indeed make it into finished extracts, or if extracting oil from pgr grown plants is the safest thing to do to if utilizing pgr grown meds.

WOW not 1 reply............
I have used flower dragon ONCE. I was super happy with my results and had already purchased some for the next room. Regardless of results I was informed more on it and had no problem throwing it out!!thanks to dizzlekush from icmag for the post below
