Is Ocean Forest all that?

I have to laugh whenever I see people laying down tarps in their garage, spending hours shoveling in lime and blood meal and bone meal and castings and coco and banana peels and old Nintendo games and raccoon guano and palm fronds and topping it off with 300 mL's of urine and threading the process on the forums boasting of how righteous their "supersoil" is. I mean is pH'ing your feed water by hand really that much of a nuisance? Or adding in a liquid organic fert once the nutrient load in your media is exhausted? Last time I checked, squirting 50 CC's of pH down into a trash can full of water didn't ruin my day.

You are all giving me much insight and humor at the same time. I try to avoid complication in growing. My first grow was hydro, and I quicky sold all that stuff. Too many pumps, water, extra electricity use, and expensive scientific testing equipment needed. I dont down any growing method, but that was too much for me to deal with. Planting a seed in ffof soil was much easier. I liked not having to do anything but water and monitor the amount of light. Not even any nutrient application for 30 days which is exactly when I like to flower. I am not going cocoa, as there is no nutrition in that medium. Plants get feed nutrients from day one in small amounts. I prefer to keep nutrients organic, and to not use them until my plant is well established. Some would also argue better aroma, taste, and quality from good soil. However yields seem better with other growing methods and synthetic chemicals. I for one am for quality over quantity.

Happy Frog. No added mixes, composts, teas etc. Straight out of the bag. I use a single bloom nutrient once my ladies burn through all the fuel in the dirt. Stop using premixed dirt? N***** Please!!!!!

You would be surpised , I get much better taste and aroma not to mention WAY larger harvests from coco than I ever could with soil, its all about knowing how to use it and applying techniques to your plants that you have practiced and refined. I also do hydroponics as well but usually only 1 plant for the yield and I make BHO out of it.

I will admit it costs more to grow in coco than soil, soil is the cheapest way for sure, but also the most limited as you cannot push your plants the same you can in coco or other methods like hempy buckets.

Malicifice: while I can see that you are a gentleman who won't hesitate to offer a lady his seat on the bus, I am confused by your reply. On the one hand you exclaim that my photo is quote"Bullshit," yet on the other you are kind enough to offer up a praise of stoke. Please elaborate. And that sort of frost is quite easily found in many Bodhi offerings by the way. That just happens to be a SSDD keeper I found out of two packs. Im looking to mix up the variety though so hoping I find a worthy keeper in the 3 packs of Blockhead BX seedlings I currently have in cups.

Absolutely, like "bull shit crazy" how frosty. It was meant to be a compliment, maybe it's a west coast thing to talk like that. Like the word "hella".
