Help! Question on flavoring my plants.

[13eginnerGrower]

So I'm a first time grower and I know I should probably post in newbie central but I know a decent amount and was wondering.

If I were to make a mixture of water and ground up orange peels (orange zest). Then starve the pants for a day or so before harvest and water them right before harvest, would this add any flavor or would I be wasting my time?

Wasting your time, possibly ruining your quality.. But if you're selling to anyone under say the age of 12 they could mistake the orange zest for higher quality bud with respects to terpenes

IMHO let the genetics determine the flavor, you will be much more satisfied in the end

i answered that on your other post of the same thing.

Im sure that will not work and yea possibly going to ruin quality also who knows the impact the orange zest will have on the roots being that its highly Acidic. Be the test dummy and let us know how it works

Before you feed your healthy plants garbage they can't possibly absorb , then turn into flavor adding nutrients or amino acids that add flavor go directly to the hydroponics forum , while there read Albfucts sticky threads , they are long but absolutely bursting at the seams with intellectual posts by Al describing how plants feed , how plants break down nutrients , what plants can do & what plants can't do .

Scientific explanations are given that refute all the pseudo science floating around , if it takes you 10 hours to read his sticky so be it ,you'll learn more from reading those threads from start to finish then you ever will on her own , or by asking questions in the forums .

The boutique fertilizer manufacturers such as Advanced Nutrients have done irreparable damage , making uneducated growers believe that plants have the ability to change the bioavailability of unusual & unnecessary compounds to alter flavor .

just buy the flavoring drops you can put in weed or buy flavored papers and be done with it.

Best way to flavor would be to find it , breed and choose the best Genotype , Phenotype dont know what the relevence is but i read a comment or a write up about growing fruit plants by/directly next to canna and overtime time and generations the auxins and hormones could stimulate terp. flavor production or that might just be Bs

Nothing beats the natural taste and smell of a great strain, cured just right.

Or feed it fish fertilizer and don't flush.... just kidding. Bet that would taste like rotten fish though.
