It's a fuckin' religion with those types. And don't get me started on the anti-GMO crowd.
is there any scientific evidence to suggest that growing plants organically will make them superior in the ways claimed by organic growers ?

many of these organic growers insist that chemical grown weed both soil and hydro is vastly inferior to their organics

Oh please do. :)

Let me throw out some bait:

- I'm not against transgenesis. As a matter of fact, if I had the resources...

- Monsanto is going to create awesome cannabis hybrids and people will say they are heavily genetically engineered while in reality it will be largely a result of applying actually modern breeding methods.

My fav thing to "ask" em about are vitamins :bigjoint: which are actually "chem" nutes for humans and found in every health food/organic store there is LOL Pretty much all extracted the same way as Plant chem nutes and yeppers some are even extracted using radiation. Yet the organic folks will not only use em but defend em as well LOL

How do these organic folk become so closed minded to scientific facts, i guess UB was right, its like a religion

many LED growers are similar, many of them will claim that HID weed is vastly inferior
what i find amusing is many of them would of been smoking HID weed for most of their smoking careers, now suddenly its worthless to them

Usually, when someone comes by and they have some crap weed, they can't stop saying, "it's organic" again, I commence with the laughing under my breath.

P deficiency? That's rare, especially around this place. Looks like a N deficiency to me. What NPK foods are they getting?
I'm pretty sure it's P just because the lower leaves are green and it's only happening at the very top. Could be a combo of things though, there is also some crispyness here and there. My NPK is 8-5-13 i believe, I've got the PPM really low right now though, also I add low amounts of cal and mag and low amounts of sulfur. Everything was good until I dropped the nutes ppm below 700 for my "flush" lol, the plants still wanted more food I'm assuming

If they're that brainwashed, tell them what they want to hear.
Right on man, seriously, I'll do that from now on. I've flushed a long time ago and haven't in so long I can't remember and there was never a difference, it's so dumb

Yo AP,
Try and save a nug of that tangielope for me. Thanks
Will do man, you'll think it's the grossest bud on the block. It might make you hungry, not because of the munchies, but because it will remind you of fried chicken and soup.

When people take a hit off my bud and go "damn, that's good, did you flush? I just laugh. When it goes on a shelf at a dispensary, it is usually the first to go.
That's what I'm saying!! It's ridiculous some people not accepting "unflushed" stuff. So dumb.

I have not had one of those yet. Seen several examples in a 'freaks' thread at icmag, uncommon but not extremely rare.
It's such a weird leaf, there were a few of them next to the leaves with the buds growing out of them, maybe it was the monstanto mega salt nutrients I was using ;) lol just kidding

Seems often the Appeal to Nature fallacy plays a large role.

General form of this type of argument:
N is natural.
Therefore, N is good or right.
U is unnatural.
Therefore, U is bad or wrong.

Though, some of the organic growers here are better capable dealing with scientific facts than many of the growers in the hydro forums. @stowandgrow is a good example.

Because you go into the organic forums and cause a scene.


It'd be the same as me telling all the horizontal growers to go vert. Or all the DWC boys that they'd be better off in hempy.

Just poor form, we all grow the way we do for some reason or another...
