Advantages to using NO FERTS

[BalloonFight]

Are there any? Can a plant still grow and flower ok without adding any fertilizers? Thanks in advance.

a plant will grow without nutes if there are enoug natural nutrients in the soil. added nutes help provide healthy roots and a sturdy growth habit.

i saw your plants in the other thread, they look good and i see the cotyldons are still green but they will start turning yellow and fall off soon, as soon as they do you should start feeding.

If you have a very potent soil mix than you will not have to feed at all during any part of the plant's life. It requires you to buy soil additives and it seems like you are not trying to spend any money. If you don't make a good soil mix than no, there are absolutely no advantages to growing without nutrients.

will the buds be smokeable if i used miracle grow 3 week feed potting soil and add no nutes?

i heard that miracle grow slow release formulas was really bad for weed. but personally i have never tried it.

oh and btw your avatar made me laugh LOL

Mg has nutes. I dont think its possible to grow without them. Grow anything worth your time anyway. Think of trying to go with out food. Would you grow or survive? Neg mate.

If your using clones i guess this is possible..

But i started with the 3 "Month" Slow release MG soil and it was too potent.. The Nutes in the soil alone were killing my sprout/seedlings before they could even start to grow.

i have grown plants with just cheap soil, water and water. they grew fine, i didnt have any bad deficiencies. and the bud was nothing to complain about. i would call it a success with a little luck.

actually it is the plants in my avatar, i think they are at around 5 weeks there.
