What are you guys even talking about? organic vs hydro is similar to .380 Magnum vs DC clothing, they are two seperate categories. lol

So you could care less whether your personal stash was grown organic or hydro?

I like the stuff without any bugs or mite dung embedded into it - however you grow it.
If cured proper it is almost impossible to tell the difference imo.

i like organic ..every hydro bud i have ever smoked i didn't like mainly due to the fact that it had really no flavor (just like hydro tomatoes) and it also burned fast... the hydro usually looks decent but lacks that smell/ flav and burns fast IMO...best flavors come from using guano tea IMO

Probably grown badly... the hydro buds I grew are more smelly than the organic soil ones of the same cut... and the best tomatoes I've ever had were hydroponic. These plants reward you for making them happy and healthy, and they are unambiguously happier and healthier in hydroponics...

Hydro isn't some toxic 21st century rocket science... it is as ancient as written history itself.

Also in many ways hydroponics is better for the environment. It uses 5% as much water as earth sown crops! And you are getting more out of every KWH of power so you are burning less coal.

The organic craze is just hype IMO. Organic material decomposes into the mineral salts found in hydroponic fertilizers, which are the only things the plants can absorb anyway. Every piece of "evidence" of the supposed superiority of organics is anecdotal, I have never seen any scientific proof of any of the claims of its proponents... though I would love to be proven wrong on this. In the grocery store, the organic produce usually tastes better, but I think this has more to do with the close attention that is given by organic farmers that factory farms don't provide.

Plants can't absorb organic material through their roots, they just draw up minerals ("chemicals"). This is what makes plants unique and so important in the first place. They are chemical factories - they draw up simple minerals and CO2, and use light to power the synthesis of fabulously complicated organic chemicals we all depend on to survive.

I dont even feel like getting into it, but Im calling bullshit on this post....

First off the Gardens of Babylon is a terrible example of DWC or Hydro...

Ether you know nothing about hydro or nothing about Babylon (not hydroponic at all, more like a SOIL based permaculture design with aqueducts.

It isnt possible for organic to become "hype" because it is the way out planet and eco system function, not something invented and sold like a product.

Organic is about much more than not using chemicals ect, the plants DO in fact grow and re-act differently when grown in soil that has been killed by chemicals, not producing as much yield, being more suseptible to disease and contain less nutrient/oil production.

Plants grown in LIVING soil are much less prone attack from bugs/disease and produce the highest quality nutrition/oil content.

Plants evolved for millions of years growing in SOIL, with no help from any laboratory, or chemical extracts...

So obviously, anything but organic, is a waste of time, because nature did all the hard work figuring out how to grow these plants for the last billion years, we just have to open our eyes and observe the master gardener herself.
