everyone thinks I'm crazy for building a garden with no intention of doing coco and salt.
The LED thing is such an additional mindfuck.
Look at this marijuana.
Exactly!
Time for a DocBud rant:
Traditions cut both ways. Sometimes traditions are tried and true and keep us on the right path in life....like the tradition of stable marriage and family.
Others are harmful to us, like the tradition of hazing/alcohol poisoning in fraternity rushing.
The tradition of saving money each and every paycheck is a good one....but the tradition of borrowing to the max is a harmful one, even though most people do the latter and not the former.
Organic gardening is a good tradition, but at the same time I pray that coco and salt do not become a tradition. We need awareness of the lack of minerals and nutrient density in our soils....which is where we get our food to nourish our bodies and stay healthy.
Coco and salt won't help that. High Brix gardening will!
We have both science and tradition working on our side.....whereas other styles might just be a "new" practice, or a result of advertising. Nothing beats the sun. Nothing beats properly mineralized soil, robust microbial populations and good stewardship of the garden.
These are ancient traditions! They work!
Modern corporate farming is killing us. I avoid it at all costs...and in doing so I save money and get better produce, all day long, everyday.
