This is my first grow ever, im not sure what strain it is but its an indica. Id like to see what other experienced growers have to say about this plant since after all im new to all this. I started germination on 4/20 and its been going strong ever since, some problems here and there but nothing it couldn't overcome? I water it twice a day and i started using some organic bloom fertilizer once i noticed it was flowering. Any feedback would be great!IMG_0287.jpgIMG_0281.jpgIMG_0290.jpgIMG_0289.jpgIMG_0287.jpgIMG_0281.jpgIMG_0290.jpgIMG_0289.jpg

The way those tips are burned up it looks like you have given them too strong of a dose. Do organically fed plants usually have nute burn? Does organic even mean anything?

DOES ORGANIC EVEN MEAN ANYTHING!? have you been living under a rock?

yes it is possible to burn with organics, just not NEARLY as easy as it is to do with chemicals...

Was every other factor the exact same in the year by year comparison? Im not trying to knock your hippyness by being organic. I just think its an overrated buzzword that most growers use.

i disagree that organic is just an "overated buzzword". im not all organic but as far as pesticides i like to use organic stuff. feeding with growbig and tigerbloom is cool in my book. you should see what farmers use on the food we eat.(pesticides, fungicides)

I am glad that people are beginning to realize the benefits of organic gardening. What I have found, is that the home-brew compost tea has taken the project cannabis growers world by storm. When I was on Overgrow, very few people were talking about aerated compost teas, or even anaerobic compost teas. I am lucky to have had a grandfather who was into organic methods, and was taught the benefit of soil health from a young age. It has since just been "common sense" to me.
Where people go wrong, in my mind, is totally throwing the "chemical" fertilizers under the bus. When purchased, mixed, and applied correctly- it can take an "organic" grow one step further. It's all about the chemistry and microbiology, and chemically synthesized nutrients CAN fit into that picture.... in my mind.

Thanks for reading =)

I still throw chemical fertilizers under the bus because if you are willing to put in the money you can get much stronger feeds and much much healthier plants and soil from organics... chemicals are not good for the microherd . . .
