There is more than one way to skin a cat...apparently...Mark Twain said it so it must be true. Kind of scary if you think of the implications of that saying though, that people actually cared about their cat skinning techniques...ahem, sorry about that. The point is, this thing that we do can be successfully done in so many ways, different nutes, chem, organic, dry, liquid, white powder, brown turds, dirt, coco, etc. Look at all the amazing grow journals posted and you'll see there is no best way, and beware anyone who tells you different. A grow focused purely on production will look different than a grow focused purely on quality/flavor, but well grown bud, properly cured, will favorably stack up against its peers regardless of nutes/medium. So find your niche, make observations and take copious notes, and work on improving your grow each cycle, so that one day we may all join the brotherhood of true OG grow masters!
