Based this analogy organic soil grown is far more satisfying then bottled nutes? Sorry but I can tell a huge difference in taste between a well made tomato sauce over any sauce in a jar. Now I enjoy cooking, and the added time from making sauces from scratch gets well received, far more than if I threw a jar of sauce over pasta. Nonetheless, to each his own. I can say most of the stuff I've tried from my local dispenaries is mediocre, kind of like sauce in a jar. .Okay....maybe I need to put it another way.
I've known many women..........[wait for it].....and I've known many that were almost chef quality cooks. I'll use spaghetti sauce to illustrate: these chef-like women used only fresh vegetables picked at the height of ripeness, choice cuts of meat, several spices in combinations calculaters cannot compute....cooked for hours, simmered for a couple more hours......stirring and tasting all thru the process, adding a little this or that along the way as their expert taste buds indicated.
When finally poured on the pasta, there was no denying - more often than not, it was awesome. I ate, enjoyed, and was satisfied.
When I make spaghetti, the sauce comes from a jar - hey, I've got class! - no cans for me. It heats up in about 10 minutes, which is about as long as the pasta takes to cook. Grill some store bought garlic bread, open a bag'o'salad', and dinner is on is 15 minutes or less. No kelp, no worms, no....oh, wait, that's another recipe. And it's a good meal. But even better: for the work I put into it, it's a damm fine meal. I'd bet most of you with less fine tuned palates couldn't tell a lot, if any, difference in my 'recipe' and these pseudo-chef babes - but I never told any of them that until I was ready to....you know....eat somewhere else.
And when I eat my own cooking, it's most often tasty and satifying....there's more of it....and the effort is far less both physically, but more importantly, mentally. And that's where I'm coming from. You can follow that thought from gourmet cooking to most things in my world. Real good w/ little effort and mental gymnastics > the 'best I've ever had' complete w/ worms and kelp and such.
The glorious thing, doncha know, is if we all think we're enjoying our crops, we probably are.
I still stand behind Mataro Blue and recommend it to anyone. My wife and I cannot get through a 1/2 a joint before being totally ripped. The buds are dense as hell, and the plant is an amazing yielder. I have grown other "fruity" plants that have taste different than none-fruit weed.....the point I'm was making is that the weed doesn't taste like "regular" weed....not bad tasting weed.I wonder how many Mataro Blue beans you were resposible for selling.....I was almost one - had it in my cart, in fact because of your repeated high praise. Not ragging on you, I swear...just noting the irony.
Hey there ol buddy ol pal! What's up doc. I think it's best to be in an illegal state My legal buddy busts his ass 60+ hours a weak for chump change, and he still has to buy the smoke!!! WTF throw a dog a nug...shit!!! All they do is go home and set up shop on the side. This country's fucked up.I talked to a friend of mine in Colorado and he told me that most of the growers he knows have stepped up the quality of their buds to keep their customer base. Prices haven't changed as of yet as the pot stores are getting $400 a zip. I find it interesting how legal weed will change or not change the pot culture.
This would make sense if you didn't have it backwards. I cannot imagine a simpler way to grow than the LOS way. Get your soil mix jacked and water for 12 weeks... Opposed to chemmy ferts where it is pH and PPM at EVERY water. Constantly spending money, having to tweak feeds as plants grow etc. Living soil the plant is in control. Perfect health with so little effort. Once you add blumats there is nothing much to do you don't even water any more.Okay....maybe I need to put it another way.

Had a friend go to the recreational shop a couple days ago.I talked to a friend of mine in Colorado and he told me that most of the growers he knows have stepped up the quality of their buds to keep their customer base. Prices haven't changed as of yet as the pot stores are getting $400 a zip. I find it interesting how legal weed will change or not change the pot culture.
hellraizer at which week in flower does the dirty sock smell kick in?LOS is the way of the future for my growing needs! Why well im tired of supporting everybody elses pockets with my
cash, plain and simple.
If you dont smell it by the 5th week you dont have that phenolhellraizer at which week in flower does the dirty sock smell kick in?
yeah that sucks about the data. thanks hellraizer can't wait to start this grow i got enough seeds this pheno gotta pop upIf you dont smell it by the 5th week you dont have that phenol
all my test data went down with the tsd ship im now keeping a ledger of all my tests cause
il be dammed if i loose all that data again!
Those prices are fucked. I'd still be growing. Shit it costs me about $1.20 a plant in fertilizers start to finish, a ten week strain counting electrical for 8 plants is about $70 include veg time [45 days or so, fans, and hps+florescent] depending on how long I veg and flower.) And medium cost is about $3.33 for 8 plants . Writing that makes me want to lower that cost. So for ($1.20 + $8.50 + 3.33= ) $13.01 a plant. A plant which will yield at least 2-3 ounces of high quality bud. Let's be honest, companies would kill for that margin. And I can let mine go for $200-280 an ounce all day, and still have smoke for me until the next plants come along. All equipment paid for in my grow. The margins there work just keep out the fucking middle men.Had a friend go to the recreational shop a couple days ago.
After the twenty minute wait, the security screening... and the introduction to his "Bud-tender", he left the proud owner of some Kush I can't remember the name of, for $60 an 1/8th.
Yeh, they have mids for $200 - $250 a zip...before tax.
After tax, the ounce costs $325. Top shelf after tax can run up to $400.
Every plant grown for licensed shops has a tracker attached at the base, and is tracked from grow to sale, and logged on it's journey the entire way.
If a person can grow top shelf and stay ahead of them, there may be a small slice left in that billion dollar pie.
What's strange love?Gunnin for strange love...
Thank you. Simple and to the point. Plus the best taste LED is also the future. That'll save a bit on the electric...solar panels are next.LOS is the way of the future for my growing needs! Why well im tired of supporting everybody elses pockets with my

Did you just say lemon!!! Is she a big eater or fussy? Respond well to training? Any pre game would be appreciated.Well I may have to walk back a bit on my initial assessment on superstitious. I've got four on flower. The first one was meh as far as bodhi goes, it was still better than any Dutch I've had in my garden.
Had a taste of number 2 yesterday, still needs a cure but a nice lemon taste and smell. Numbers 3 and 4 come down tonight.
