The primary difference between organic compounds and inorganic compounds is that organic compounds always contain carbon while most inorganic compounds do not contain carbon. Also, almost all organic compounds contain carbon-hydrogen or C-H bonds.
Molecules associated with living organisms are organic. These include nucleic acids, fats, sugars, proteins, enzymes and many fuels.

Inorganics include salts, metals, substances made from single elements and any other compounds that don't contain carbon bonded to hydrogen.

gotta love the net lol

No mate, I said what "Your" understanding of what 'organic' and chemical' means.

Let me put it another way.


Out of the 13 elements that you feed your plants in the so called 'organic' feed, all of them are chemicals and all but 3 (if I remember correctly) are metals.

So now, what is the problem with using PH up/down?...........;)

i've never used ph products in the 5+ years i have grown and all my plants have made it from seed to stinkin weed near enough perfectly.

i remember when i first joined the forum and that was all the hype and arguements about ph'ing.

all the old school soil growers used to say it's a waste of time adjusting ph in soil and i followed along with that and it hasn't failed me.

That's completely irrelevant to the point and bares no relation to your Organic/chemical statement at all!


Never mind, forget about it.

everything is cushdy.
i was asking about the best technique to suit my grow and it escalates into ph and chemistary lessons lmfao.
i've always just let the plants do their thing without all this lst ect..... some yield big , some small. but i've never adjusted ph and don't intend to, people seem to be taking offence to that

I think you should scrape off that set of digis and post the scrap my way ya scruffy bugger!
What did you use? Looks very clear.
hahah half of it's mostly fluff, coke and weed crumbs. the bits on the bottom are hash from the last but i done. i keep meaning to clean them lol. i used everclear and the pressing screen of my bubble bags then through my grinder to clean the crystal out. little lump of hash left on the pressing sheet too, brucey bonus

Not in the slightest, you missed the point entirely.

First you said because you "grow all organic" you didn't want to use "chemical" PH up/down, then when I try to explain this train of thought is illogical as all the 13 elements we use are chemicals you change your stance rather than addressing the rational behind it.

look mate i aint no scientist but if it says on the bottle that its organic, i'll go by that.
if my ph is neutral and i have decent soil, what is the point in ph 'ing ?
