I always see ppl telling me to use bloom ferts and such but im an organic grower!! I use nothing but soil, water, and light. Is there any secret tricks to boost bud without toxins??

I use earth juice nutrient. They are made from all natural shit. I say shit because that's a lot of what its literally made from. Also sea kelp, bone meal, worm castings, oat bran and all sorts of good shit. The nutrient mix these natural products create is literally different from bottle to bottle and is not very strong. I really suggest trying this on at least one of your plants so you can see the difference for yourself and decide. They are pretty cheap too, as far as products go, not very gimmicky, just straight forward certified organics.

That's because "plumping up" your buds with additives is bullshit. Everyone above just listed a ton of random crap products which I have no idea of the composition.

Give em proper soil fertility, pH, air, light, temps and you will have plumped up your buds. Keep doing it organic, forget that other crowd.

Calling them random crap products followed by the admission you have no idea what they are or what they consist of is a bold statement. I'd say try and be more moderate with your posts. Neither you nor I are the final answer to the equation. I'd say just stick to what you DO know about and leave the rest to the people that actually have experience with the products. Problem with ignorant people is they keep trying to pull you down to their level, and then beat you with with experience.

bone meal, blood meal, feather meal, alfalfa meal, green sand, bat guano, sea bird guano, chicken manure, lama manure, compost, kelp meal, fish emulsion, worm castings... There are a ton of organic amendments that help pot grow without adding toxins.

In your water, not your soil. Mix it up well. It usually needs to be constantly aerated (the mix of molasses/water, that is), so an air pump may be necessary.

Okay, what's in a gravity, or ultra snowstorm, or bud xl or canna boost? How does it work and why would it result in bigger flowers without altering the plants genes?

My point is: if every limiting factor is perfect, and the plant is expressing it's maximum genetic potential, what will those magic potions do to "fatten flowers"?

point is im not trying to inhale any chemicals at all whatsoever. I only grow with soil and plain water. Im open to using things like animal shit because that does occur in nature. Im interested in molasses tho, ive seen good results from it but never understood it

If you're growing in soil, with "organics" (I'm just calling it natural now) the molasses helps to feed the microbes in the soil, which break down the organic matter into molecules the plant can use. You don't need the molasses though, if there is a good food supply. If you're making compost tea however, molasses is a useful tool. Keep reading, but be very careful whom you listen to. Lots of bullshitters on the internet, some in this here thread.

molasses, gravity, and ultra snowstorm.
i believe either gravity or snowstorm got busted for having carcinogens in the nutrients without labeling it! i heard hat shit causes cancer, how do u recommend these nutrients as an organic way to grow?!?!?!?!

I grow organic and am all about it but if you are not trying to inhale any chemicals...then pot really isn't for you. Can't get high without inhaling chemicals.
