And that is a good observance of the scientific process. The more comparisons, the more examples and numbers to fuel known statistics .
It is very easy to misuse a soil, if you do not understand the soil. Square 1 being ingredients and their actual sources. Next being the processes used to mix and store, or compost, etc. and so on and so forth. Understanding the different properties of the ingredients and their effects on each other makes a difference as well.
I added perlite to my Roots Organic, and it was more successful.
Different soil properties require different maintenance and techniques for optimum results. You have to Adapt yourself in order to take advantage of what you have. Or you can get what you always get and do what you do......
The Hydro guy said just add a seed or plant. (making me run circles) I never add compost or guano, etc (mixed in soil) to my FFOF and my yields are between 4-7.5 per plant indoors under a 600hps. So keeping it all the same was the way for me to see if RO was better than FFOF, it is not. Here are a few of my harvest, all indoors of course.
I get what your saying GG. Here is my input on this subject. If you do nothing to your FF soil and it produces those results well then good job. I think we all strive for a good easy medium to use. We dont want more work than what we have to maintain our grow rooms. If FF is a better soil from the start than it is. Seems evident. It seems like everyone is saying to mess with the soil to have to obtain optimum results. Isnt that exactly wehat we are doing is comparing soil to soil??? Technically speaking I feel if it is a good soil than not ONE thing should really have to be changed. If you have to change to obtain better results than why am I buying a soil?? WHy not just mix my own if in the end thats what I'm having to do. Good grows GG and I hear where your coming from. It should not be science it is straight up soil vs. soil. That is the comparison and all of you who keep digging in to this further than need be chill out and think about what your saying. Mix your own soil if you want to obtain a better soil but I use FF straight up and can grow like a champ and am using prollly have the nutes over the grow cycle than with RO. It retains less from my understanding. FF overall is a better medium with nothing else needed to be added. Hope that sums it up.Of course if you change soil, your going to need to change how you grow. And doing things exactly the same won't get you the same results.
nice plants and nugs..... but I don't see your point.... unless your point was "hey, look at these nice buds"
I see, looks good. How did they smoke?
