You should be teaching grow classes, thank you for the detailed reply. I agree with the drying and curing, though my last synthetic grow i tried one plant with nutrients till trim and it was noticeably harsher in my vape. You are giving me a bit of hope to stick with organics.

So its not like synthetics where excess nutrients in the soil at the end cause a harsh taste?

Also asking @kratos015 If my end organic soil is high in calcium does this mean my bud will have a harsh or unpleasant smoke? I'm only giving them water for the last 2 1/2 weeks.

I contacted Gaia Green directly and they said not to do it. After researching fish poop it already has NPK and micro nutrients once broken down by the tanks microbes.

Do you add organic nutrients to your tank? I have been using synthetic nutrients in my planted, but I'd like to go full organic if I can. Do you think a little Gaia Green 444 would kill my guppies?

Sounds good I will mix straight perlite and peat with it. How much lime per gallon do you add? Also do you have pictures of your bud in late bloom? I'd like to see how its suppose to look in an organic grow. And any other tips that you recommend that maybe I'm missing?

Thanks again for your reply. I'm not going to do no-till but I am going to save as much soil as I can then mix it with ocean forest, like a 50/50 ratio. Besides adding some 444 and EWC to the mix, should i add crushed dolomite lime or OSF? If its too much Cal, what else should I add when...

Thanks for the detailed reply. I'll add some Epson salts to my watering. The reason I was adding Gypsum and OSF was because my soil is about 15% coco. Someone here in another thread said i needed to add it. But now I'm realizing that the Gaia green 444 and bloom probably have enough Calcium.

So in short, it is possible to overfeed in organics? And should you flush the last week if you overfeed to get the harshness taste out or does this not apply when doing organics? I'm extremely tempted to go back to synthetic nutes.

Ok thanks for your reply, I'll add more 444 in bloom. They are at week 6 now of flower so I'm going to no longer top dress and chop at week 9.

That strain has always been that color, my last grow with it too.

Two other strains in the grow, one seems perfect the other has this brown crispy on some of the leaves. I use a mix of gia green bloom, EWC, gypsum and oyster shell flour. Maybe I used too much calcium? Its weird how I feed them the same and every other variable is the same but some strains...
