How not to be a salt farmer or a wasteful grower tips

Still on vacation, and yesterday started with a flat tire, followed by a dead battery, and then a seized caliper. Good times.

If you have to amend your soil mechanically then it isn't really organic. I'm sure your process works very well as evidenced by the pics you've posted. I like your process and may use elements of it but it isn't actually growing organically if we are going to use that word to label the process. Maybe I'm just being a grammar nazi but I like to understand what a word actually means so that everyone has a basis of understanding and can make judgements and determinations based on what that meaning is.

I understand the basis of your thread is to bypass all the store bought stuff and use what you have at hand. Your results speak for themselves. Me personally? I like elements in my grows that I can quantify through numbers. This sets up a process of repeatability along with being able to drill down if there is an issue that crops up. Your process doesn't really have a way to quantify what you are actually giving them. You also don't really have a way to see if what you are giving them wasn't raised with the chemicals that you are trying to avoid. Unless you are able to only give it organically grown food scraps and other amendments you can't be sure if those scraps contain hormones and other things that you don't want in your plants.

Maybe my time working in LGO's has put more emphasis on production growing rather than personal grows but I believe many of the practices are done for a reason that is beneficial to growing overall.

I haven't visited a dispensary in years but the ones I've been to I've never seen an "organic" section like you see in supermarkets. Every LGO I worked at used salt based fertilizers for their grows. In food production the only real benefit in regard to the actual food itself is that it MIGHT have a higher nutritional value. Organic and Synthetically grown weed has been lab tested and no real differences can be found between the two.

Where organics really makes a big difference is in soil conditioning outdoors. Also, the need for fertilizers is reduced greatly making it better environmentally.

Got 27 1/2 gr/ml from 1/2 lb of flower, pretty much on point for me. I typically get 60 gr/ml from a lb give or take so I’m satisfied cheers.
