Haha good info everyone. Cant say weather hydro easier or not but I do love soil science and learning about micro organisms 
Will still probably do another coco grow as I have enough nutes to feed the amazon rainforest lol.
Yeh no probs wizz throw you d*ck anywhere in this journal, I like all the info from everyone , We have a choice then to pick and choose what we learn.
But just to clarify, this soil mix is working great at the min no probs at all TOUCH WOOD

First let me appoligize for enetering JBC journal with out saying HEY
.....hEY JBC!!!!! 3-4 Months yea I cant believe it my self. I guess when you really like something and know this is what your really want to do oyur going to work your ass off to catch up. I started blind and 420 made me see
Funny thing is my first attempt at growing was a 5 gallon drip bucket. I failed miserably and hated hydroton and hydro ever since. Then I went to soil and concord it and found out it was really to difficult because you never know whats leaching and beside the pest and water logging soils which I hated. Then I discovered coco and coco croutons. Now 4 months later im in love
PS LMAO After I posted this I just seen your post JBC

It must of been fate for me to come over here because ive been putting a memo in my head saying stop over at JBC journal
hey JBC

I too agree about hydro being easier (not better, I won't even dare and start this discussion ).. Even a soil-less like sunshine #4 will still give you the feeling of growing in soil, but you have complete control on feeding. It's near damn impossible for somebody with a mediocre background in organic chemistry to predict soil behavior and chem interactions in there. Additives will mess with each other, the pH, and your whole grow, IF and ONLY IF you're new to this. I stand by my statement that pure organic soil (super mix) in the hands of an experienced grower will grow wonders.
I feel like a marketing agent for BPN, but seriously, it's so cheap and it delivers amazing results. The best part is the feeding schedule. You don't have to guess, this schedule wasn't made for tomatoes or peppers. Corey knows what you want to grow and he gives you what your cannabis needs. (That's of course my opinion) There's a 100 different ways to grow good bud, pick what suits you most

100x agree. Cory & Fied is making a new feeding schedule that actually simplify the feeding schedule even more.

I ll start it lol...heres my take on it.if your a comercial grower hydro is a no brainer, speed and yield blow soil...well out of the water.if your growing for yourself then from what ive been hearing organics is the way to go(I can honestly say I have no idea if ive ever tried organicaly grown weed before) around here everybody wants the dro then again maybe they havent tried organic weed either.I will more than likely be getting a shitload of DocBud's highbrix kits(enough for 500 gallons of soil) for my outdoor auto's this year so I will find out whats what soon enough, and who knows maybe i ll like it so much i ll switch to high brix
Dont get me started on hibrix growing. Now thats one thing till this day I do not understand. Even after watching X and Icemuds journals. Im clueless.
same here bro, DocBud makes it easy though.He sells ready made kits you add to a bale of promix hp.Just follow instructions nice and easy.Im way to much of a stoner to understand much of anything he says when hes talking high brix but hes getting great results so what the hell im going to try it outdoors

I have to check into that DocBud brix. Going to really take my time on that. After these few grows ill start something like that to really reach for the best potency.

I know they use a refractometer. We used those in school to test sugar levels (concentration) in various samples. It depends on refractory properties of light. You slab a sample, and look up at a light source, you'll get a reading of how rich in sugar that sample is. So my guess, is that high brix is just testing sugars (i.e. carbs) in your plant. If you monitor this, you can make sure you're getting the most out of your genetics.
This is all me speculating what high brix is, just from knowing what a refractometer is used for. So in other words, this could be completely false.
I'm guessing by the concentration of carbs, (plants store food as chains of carbs - startch...), they'll know whether the plant is producing to its full potential or not. I think it's more of a "make sure my plant is pushing its full potential" rather than a "style" of grow.

nah bro theres alot more to high brix than that, the stuff you put in the soil is alot different than organic I think, check out his journal, like I said its way above me but from what I understand the buzz is totally different, with good hydro your lucky if you can make it through one spliff before being locked on the couch. with high brix I guess the more you smoke the more social and energized you get or something like that
oh and thanks for the reps iSmokes
with high brix I guess the more you smoke the more social and energized you get or something like that
YEA I NEEDS!!!!!! 
lol...me to bro, my shit is nightime smoke for sure, put you on your ass in front of the tv with a giant bag of chips kinda smoke
You ever try to enjoy your high with out eating? I always try to fight the hunger, to me after eating it takes my high down or makes me sleepy which is step 3 of smoking. I never want to get to step 3 LMAO!!!!
I can explain it to you easily.
Certainly we're measuring sugar content, but mainly we're looking at mineral content, which can also be measured with a refractometer.
What we're doing in high brix is basically organics on steroids. The plants are still being fed by microbes and it's entirely possible to get high brix and be 100% organic....but you can do even better if you allow yourself judicious use of safe, natural substances that aren't necessarily OMRI, but are perfectly safe. Things like rock powders, calcium nitrate, etc.
We put minerals into the soil to increase calcium, phosphorus, trace elements and carbon in the proper ratios. On top of that are organic fertilizers, biochar, and hydrolyzed fish. This mix is cooked for 30 days minimum.
Upon transplanting the roots are inoculated with with a product that consists of rock powders and beneficial mychorizae. Then a drench of fishy ferts (organic) is added and away they go.
After that, the microbes in the soil start to break down all the minerals and the organic fertilizers and feed the plant so that its full genetic potential is reached. The right foliar sprays are essential in order to get the soil biology excited.
So, if you understand organics, you already understand high brix. I'm merely making my soil mix differently and feeding them differently.
