I work second shift I made it so my lights turn on at 2pm and I’m always rushing to water it seems. I’m gonna adjust that for the next flowering to make it a bit easier and who knows once I incorporate it at my girls house I’ll probably fall in love with it and install one at mine.You won’t regret it. Made my life so much simpler.
Lmao but there is some truth to that. Plants don't take up organics its impossible.... the whole organic market is based on false ideology. Now that's not saying that organic growing is a falsehood because it's not at all.. just the marketing is.The best secret is to lie and use harsh pesticides and hormones. Then just put a sticker on the bag that says organic.
Organic tends to be pretty bad for the environment too. We use synthetic fertilizer for a reason I suppose. Organic in my mind is a pot of rich soil and just water. Which is a great concept. But pests. And nutrients. I mean its a plant growing inside a shop. How Organic is that ever gunna be? And the "Organic" stuff thats allowed. Well. Kind of makes you reconsider why you bother.Lmao but there is some truth to that. Plants don't take up organics its impossible.... the whole organic market is based on false ideology.

Let theing begin. But understand I'm not bashing organic growing. I do so in my garden. Just the marketing falsehoods in the industry.
I'll touch on the hormones later if you all want but organic is usually grown with lots of hormones
It's about building a soil over time... its changes the structure and is actually better for the environment because it releases available nutrients slowly over time as opposed to almost fully available that leech from the soil into waterways etc. The slow amount of available nutrients with organics means the amount that can be leeched from the soil is slow and steady. Mother nature is used to dealing with this but the large amounts of higher available nutrients that synthetic provide can impact an ecosystem as they cause a large imbalance.Organic tends to be pretty bad for the environment too.

But have I grown legit Organic? Yes. And I've also grown "vegan".... it was right. But silly.
Right. And organic farming releases larger amounts of nitrates into the surrounding ground water. Which is why large scale organic farming is shady as fk. The concept is great. But what ends up happening isn't. Small scale organic farming would be a good solution. Manage the land on a more intimate scale. But when large scale organic adoption became mainstream and the biggest players got in on it. Well they corrupted it. So a lot of the large brands of Organic food suppliers don't have the same ability or fine tune their use of their fertilizers. And the products they're allowed to make and use. Can be quite toxic. So I don't trust organic plants foods from the grow store. But I'm not about to scavenge ashes and farm worms...yet.Pretty much if your growing in a pot with organics and throwing your soil out at the end.... your kinda defeating the purpose and more than likely sucked in by the ideology that somehow organic nutrients are cleaner and better for plant. In terms of nutrients organic and synthetic both end up in ionic form before the plants can take them up and the ONLY difference is how they were derived.
Simply put a nitrate is a nitrate.... no matter the source.
I'd have to disagree. They generally don't polute as much, provide a constant food source which usually but not always provides a healthier plant because synthetics leach easily unless your talking about slow release ferts.Right.

True organics. Thats a tough way to grow.
That is fab for your first grow!I went crazy with the recharge but probably didn’t need to but it stated on the bag for extreme results use every other watering so that’s what I did. I made batches of compost tea every other watering. It didn’t seem to hurt lol but I don’t have anything to compare it to as this is my first growView attachment 1141610View attachment 1141611View attachment 1141612
They are simple critters. Think of Sea Monkeys. You put them in water and they come alive and start breeding. Exactly the same thing.One thing I dont get. How do microbes live in a powder like recharge but not in soil when it dries out? Might sound dumb to those who know more about this but I'm serious.
I haven't read that one yet. It's near the top of my list.Very interesting thread, I am currently Reading true living organics by the rev. Have read soma's book on organic growing and I was left with the impression that medicinal users prefer organic grown weed over hydro..
The ecoli in soil is only of concern if you eat soil ?
Got a lot to learn
That's true for us. The local disp grows hydro. Expert grower.. But ours is so much tastier and a smoother, better high. To us at any rate.Very interesting thread, I am currently Reading true living organics by the rev.

No and the shift to organics is directly linked to the increase in Ecoli recalls. If you get soil from a supply that's tainted it will contaminate your grow.Very interesting thread, I am currently Reading true living organics by the rev.
