You can have the dankest weed in the world and there will always be some lame fuck saying "but mines organic". No one gives a fuck about your organic bullshit, it does not trump anything.

ive used bottles etc to each there own syn can still be bomb

but it is though i grow in water only supersoil haha
If you can get the yields you want with that quality, more power to you. To me, organic is just a selling point. It shouldn't be the only thing that makes the bud worth buying.

If your customer wants organic, just tell them the bud is organic. I have worked retail produce for a large corporation and they would label everything organic even if it wasn't. Its a selling point that lets your charge more, its not about the customer's health and has never been.

how much soil do you use to accomplish this though? From my experience anything smaller than 5 gals gets depleted really quick and you end up supplementing. At some point in time just maintaining the volume of dirt to supply the same amount of nutrients to the plant gets out of hand.

Everyone grows to fit their life style. There are some days I wish I could just water and get out of the room onto other things.

im not on here much anymore and i just post in the respective breeder threads you can find almost all of those pics plus some spread through the site
I found a really good producing auto that I am breeding with other strains as a side project. Just waiting on pollen sacs to open, they are yellow I am hoping it is soon.

I'm not your homie and I literally just said put up or shut up.. You growin that synthetic too? Lmk when you learn nature scrub.
If you knew anything about "nature" you would realize that everything that happens on this earth, no matter what emotion it triggers, is natural.

not really i work soil once a season but I use alot of soil in my line of work also so that helps my hobby, and the amount depends on how long they are in the pot some of those were ran this fall i 1gal nursey pots basically 12/12 from seed but i mostly use #3 nursery pots which is 2.5 gal

There are a lot of liquid nutrients that claim to be organic. Could you supplement with them after the nutes in the soil are used up?

Sure could and to each their own, I just don't see how that is any different than the salts they complain about ;). I'm just not sure how mixing and amending lbs and lbs of "super soil" simply to avoid adding fertilizers during the season is any easier or less complicated. If I can spend 4 weeks growing something to the same size as 8 weeks another method, and the end result product is similar in weight and effect, what did I gain other than another 4 weeks of watering a plant?

There are people that do no-till grows in containers. So they keep using the same dirt and amend it with organic fertilizers before and during the grow.

Cool I obviously have some reading to do on the no-till method. I will concede I know very little about it. I find it hard to give a plant exactly what it wants with such variable starting environments. Could that same plant in no-till perform better in a hydro or aero setup with ideal nutrients though? How much yield is getting sacrificed?

With organics getting the right ratios isn't really important. The plant will direct microbes on what material to break down depending on what the plant needs! In exchange the microbes get sugars from the plant. This also means its more difficult to cause nutrient burn with organics because the fertilizer isn't readily available to the plant.

next winter I'll get some giant phat sacks and give it a whirl. I just toss the used soil in the compost pile with the rest and use it wherever. I'm either paying for the water or the soil so it doesn't really bother me I just like to try different methods.
