    organics are good, i use a bit of synthetics toward the last 5 weeks of flower to make sure they're well fed, not nearly enough to get noticeable burns/salt buildup, organic nutrients have to be very well broken down before they're really available to the plant but synthetics can be eaten up pretty fast, only downside is some chemical nutrients kill microbes, nothing compost teas cant fix. as for super soil, it seems everyone has a problem finding all of the stuff you need. its really simple to be honest, get some worms and make some compost, add anything sugary, fruit, dead leaves, green leaves, and eggshells, then leave some worms to do their job. subcool should sell his super soil premixed, im sure he'd make a killing.

    i get such a kick out of these "greenies" or veggans, or tree huggers. lol. most of the good chemical nutes, are not what u would think of as chemical. most is mined from the earth, and this is why they are unpopular with the greenies. like the pipeline. who cares if we could have so many jobs, by using our out of the earth stuff, like oil, natureal gas, or,,,,,,,,,ferts. better to let the nation starve. right???? poor birdie might get his wings oily!!! waaaaaaaaaah!! i would not use miricle grow for smoke, but i also have seen nice veg grows from it... no kidding. but not for flower, and flush it well, before flower. only one of 6 fos farm nutes is classeed as organic. thats the bigbloom. the rest are not nasty. just not given the organic lable do to greenies not wanting to lable it. they are in control of what gets the organic label. and its really embezzelment! they charge hell out of buis to get the organic lablel! just like our shitty ass presedent. what is so un organic about stuff from the earth. is "mother" isent she? organic has only brought me problems. in many ways. and if you use foxfarm soil , do not feed at all in veg.
    Brownies Good!

    calling someone a tree hugger for using organic nutrients is simply arrogant, we're all tree huggers, we grow them if you didnt remember. im not going to continue to explain this, theres just so many things wrong with this entire post. salts can be harmful and effect taste if build ups occur, this is what appeals to organic growers, and not having to measure salt based nutrients and risking a burn. people using natural composted and cheaper food doesnt make them a vegan, they can still eat meat. idk why you would think this, food is really just elements that the plant needs in whatever form you feed it whether it be salt or organic. and why would you flush before flowering?
    i dont see what obama has to do with the prices on organic food, he doesnt regulate organic markets, sorry but your really bad at trying to make comparisons, as if organic nutrients have to do with oil spills, jobs, pipelines and other natural resources you seem to relate to it. everything is from earth, lol did you think non organic things came from space? organic usually means its not processed, nothing is added so you get what you should have gotten in the first place, no bullshit included.
    good day to you.

    No, you just don't know how to read labels, because obviously the stuff that makes up miracle gro is not mined its made synthetically in a chemical factory. I obviously DO use minerals that are mined from the earth....Azomite, Jersey Greensand, dolomite lime.


    I sometimes add in some Advanced Nutrients fertilizer even to my plants in super soil, so i'm obviously not talking shit about all non-organic fertilizers...im just saying shit like miracle gro is not healthy. It has heavy metals in it, and marijuana is known to draw in heavy metals and store those metals in plant tissue. I -- for one -- don't want to smoke metal. Cheap synthetics are what i am talking shit about.

    Oh, and just to also clear it up. The fertilizers we use on our food i know for the most part are cheap synthetics. But that food goes into our STOMACH where it gets denatured by hydrochloric acid and then goes through the rest of digestion. We excrete anything out that we don't want in our body that we eat. But SMOKING it and putting it in your lungs is a different story if you know anything about Anatomy and Physiology at all.

    Miracle grow doesnt have heavy metals in it, except the chromium and iron your plant needs. they are well regulated and not poisonous.

    Making a custom mix is groovy, but not everybody has the time patience space and knowledge to create the optimum soil and fertilizer mixes. Common inexpensive synthetic fertilizers can do a bang up job, and for a beginner grower they are easier to use than the single element fertilizers, organic or exotic sourced stuff, or the bulky and smelly stuff.

    Tell me where an apartment dweller in new jersey can make compost teas with mail order llama turds, bat and seabird guano, and fresh harvested pacific kelp?

    using good quality inexpensive fertilizers like miracle grow, and osmocote can help a new gardener get his toes wet without breaking the bank or stinking out the neighbors. $70 for fertilizer components may seem cheap to you, but for a novice gardener thats a deep investment for something they just might hate doing

    If somebody is looking to get fertilizers at home depot, they want inexpensive sure bets they can get anywhere, not the rarified exotic stuff, and mot likely dont want to have to measure and blend smelly bulky and unpleasant components like bat shit, blood meal and bone meal with some special premium dirt into a parfait that may or may not work based on the say so of a random dude n the interwebs. I set my mom's garden up with osmocote and miracle grow. the shit is NOT POISONOUS

    The fish emulsion you are refering to (no doubt) is "Alaska Fish Fertilizer", N-P-K 5-1-1. At my local Home Depot (and pretty much every other garden shop around), they sell a sister product called "Alaska Morbloom", N-P-K 0-10-10. These are both good products and enjoy a faithful following. I use them both, at the appropriate stage of course.

    Come to think of it, I have also used them mixed together as a "fullrange" nutrient. 3 parts of the 5-1-1 (origenal) mixed with 1 part of the 0-10-10 (Morbloom) gives an N-P-K of about 3.75-3.25-3.25. I did this, one grow, when I was in a bind. Anyway, long story short - it worked out just fine!
