Bringing the hydro vs. organic debate into this thread should be grounds for a paddlin'.
LOL! Yep...but out of respect for both those guys, I tried to follow along for a bit. It's just that my mind drifted to something else about three times. Easier to fast forward to the inevitable outcome that neither will change anything regardless of their conclusions. o_O
Good dudes, though.bongsmilie

I certainly don't wanna start an argument nor giant side derail. I simply think that in this thread more than any other area on this board for the most part (I'm lazy and really just hang out here and peruse the other areas) could have an intelligent conversation without devolving into utter shit. Without a doubt, most of you contributors I respect and think your all decent folks capable of having a good conversation, even if people don't agree, that is respectful. I enjoy learning from others, and talking about different ideas.

Good stuff TY and OG.

Bodhi is one of the few breeders that I've seen encouraging people to grow his gear organically..... and he obviously grows that way himself, so I think the the topic is relevant (perhaps not welcomed) in this thread.

On another off topic note, I can't recall my Attitude password and I hit the "forgot your password" tab a few hours ago, and they have yet to e-mail me the new one. Those bastards will probably wait until 1:01 London time to send it. :cuss:

St0w, check your spam, some of my attitude emails end up there.

No, I completely agree St0w. Like I said, I'd rather grow organic, we've had a great conversation on it. Its just hard when you are in an apartment and you go through a decent amount of soil. I don't wanna buy a bunch of somewhat expensive materials, wait a while, and hope I did it right. I am all for organic, my reasons may differ from others, but I do think its the right thing to do if you can do it.

Ty, if you do your own organic mixed soil you do not have to wait for it to be ready or "cook", you only have to wait for it if you put so called hot amendments in it such as bat guano etc. and surprisingly you'd be surprised how much cheaper it is than buying bottled nutes etc.nite.

It's an environmental thing as well with all the chemical fertility runoffs that are happening from farms and other ways the chemicals are being used. Besides that I'd say overall health and wellness. It's much better to ingest organically vs. Chemically grown. Granted I've smoked some great tasting bottled or chemically grown stuff but do prefer the taste of organics better, along with knowing my health will stay intact so to speakvs. Chemically grown.

I'm a firm believer in organically grown. I used grow from bottles to but switch to organics and never looked back. Again if done right you don't have to wait for the soil to be ready and honestly I've found you save way much more money than buying bottles, the initial start of buying amendments etc maybe a bit but once you start and keep it going I've found it to be very cheap in comparison.

Whatever you say......:roll:
Let me baby you through another response Amos. Dream Beaver description as a case in point:

"this magical mammalian hybrid smells of muskrat, kitchen herbs, caramelized onion, baked garlic, animal den, she musk, pommellow, peppercorn, and pink grapefruit zest…no joke…"

So I EXPECT to get something much like a Zambian, mostly offensive yet insanely dank flavors.

What I GET is a strong chemmy base, rotten fruit, chai tea, etc. NOT what I expected.

Between me and my wife, we tasted everything mentioned though. They were simply not represented as I expected.

Amos, really. If your next trolling doesn't have some heart in it, I am going to play with somebody else. It really is getting pretty boring and lame now.

I love organic with all my heart. But am going half hydro again soon. I miss huge-ass plants. SkunkdOc has me really inspired. I have my little rig waiting... Going to kick.

I was looking at NFT organics, i don't think I'm ready to take the leap yet :) seems like a huge learning curve. I'd like to run hydro to keep the dirt out. maybe i'll follow the Ham along and see if I can't learn something :)

I look at it as an environmental issue as well. I'm not out doors obviously so run off isn't an issue for me, but petroleum based/derived is still not as responsible from an environmental standpoint. but fertilizer is super cheap for me using Jacks. Easily less than $0.70 a plant start to finish.

Right. You said that last time.
Thanks for digging deeper into nothingness. :clap:

I agree from the environmental perspective. Waste management is critical, but it is a simple case of actually doing it. It is the one thing about hydro that makes me go 'eeehhhhhhh'... I have a pretty good water treatment system though, flocculant, filters, R.O then back to the reed bed which goes to the dam. I feel pretty good with it. But I have not yet run hydro runoff through it... MEH...

I'd call this a quality discussion more than argument. We're not that far apart. You're just not into refractometers (there's no science really discussing high brix gardening either) yet. You will be soon enough :D

Organic gardening intimidates me.

So scare of getting bugs and not being able to do shit about it. Or having a pickier strain that freaks out because of too much available nitrogen/whatever or not enough of something.

Pretty much anything I don't understand intimidates me. haha. Tis why I read alot.

I suppose I will try it ONE DAY. Would have to do that break down on a 20gallon tote worth. divide it down to a manageable size.

Sure as shit aint doing it in the garage. Would have to be stuff safe to mix up in the basement. (no batshit)
