Just a thought, or theory šŸ˜Ž

Soā€¦. I was thinking as I see this quite a lot, for those newbies like me who, donā€™t know what theyā€™re doing, are on a budget or a tight time frame, why not switch to growing all organic? You donā€™t need to PH anything, no need for slurry tests or EC testing. Just let the plant tell you what she needs or wants, I use organic soil and nutrients and I have never once PH tested my water, and Iā€™ve never had a PH issue, (water out my tap is around 7.5-7.7). The soil and nutrients act together to buffer the water to the correct PH once you have watered. Some soils you donā€™t even need to water to run off (I do this anyway) but itā€™s not ā€œnecessaryā€ so to speak, was thinking about this this morning after seeing so many newbies panicing and stressing over their babies because either donā€™t have the equipment or canā€™t get the equipment etc, organic is also super cheap! I spend less than Ā£60 a time on nutrients and they last several months, I just think itā€™s a much less stressful way to learn how to grow, and how not to grow, learn the basics so to speak. Unless of course you just wanna go all in and spend a hell fire load of money :rofl: but why do that for it to all go wrong if you donā€™t have everything you need or know everything you should at the time?
I get anxiety just reading posts about PH testers and PPM testing :laughing: hats off to you that do all this! :saluting_face:

Whatā€™s peoples thoughts on this?

You can cut the price and still grow Jam Up Weed! I use some Foxfarms Grow Big only non organic nutrients i use , here is my organic line up , Fish Emulsion Stinks Like Hell but it will surprise you how green plants will get better yet it doesnā€™t Burn leaves :fish::tropical_fish: liquid worm castings is a good soil treatment if you canā€™t afford Recharge, I use it , but what im saying is i use this outside could be totally different for inside growing :+1:

This is true, I also have an organic Bio Bizz Fish Mix, and it smells so bad Iā€™d never use it in my tent so I got the Bio Bizz grow for indoors, itā€™s amazing stuff, and the Bio Heaven, Root Juice, Bloom and Top Max all by BioBizz Iā€™ve never ever had any issues with it and itā€™s pretty cheap, stuff like jacks and FFOF is pretty hard to get hold of here in the uk, have to order from the states and with all the shipping charges etc it end up being really expensive, I was gunna switch to jacks, but for me to get some and be worth getting it Iā€™d have to get fairly large bags, and would end up over Ā£200 or there abouts, which just atm doesnā€™t seem logical :rofl:

@Nip i donā€™t have that much down on seeds yet but I donā€™t think itā€™ll be long before I do :rofl: was actually adding some more into another basket on another website :rofl::man_facepalming:t3: Itā€™s more addictive buying the damm things than growing them I think

Iā€™m all in organic, donā€™t think Iā€™ll ever go back to synthetic nutrients. Iā€™m with you on this, my anxiety was through the roof constantly checking my plants runoff, always stressing out about feeding ppm etc, no thanks Iā€™ll top dress my plant and let her do her thing :joy: seriously guys organic makes growing less stressful, I feel like this is the way itā€™s supposed to be, like who wants to constantly check the soil, worry about salt build up and if Iā€™m feeding enough, ph this, ph that, hard pass for me. Get yourself a quality organic dry fertilizer add some microbes and your all good.

Cinderella 99 clone Iā€™m currently growing with Gaia green all organic. Last top dress July 31, all Iā€™ve done was water, I hardly see the plant, just check if she needs water every few day :joy:


Last grows buds from Cinderella 99 all organic

Iā€™m just using Gaia green 444 all purpose and 284 bloom itā€™s a combination of dry ingredients all in one. If your looking for nitrogen you could look into blood meal or feather meal

Gaia green is another one Iā€™d love to try but itā€™s so hard to get in the UK, for a reasonable price anyway. Iā€™m using organic stuff too liquid organic by Bio Bizz and I honestly love the stuff, itā€™s super hard to overfeed with aswell

Yeah thatā€™s what I want to do on the super iced grapefruit, maybe end up cross breeding it, been smoking weed over 20 years now, tried hundreds of different strains and nothing has ever come close in my recollection as the super iced grapefruit for taste and flavour, shit was AMAZING
