I'll be posting pics this coming week, going to be SO EXCITING< and now to go organic, awesome.

Half organic and half chemical dependency to a plant is like being a little pregnant. It just doesn't happen. The purpose of organic growing is to develop a living soil that services plant requirements and chemicals quickly destroy that soil with their salt deposits.

But one must remember,

Organics never yield as high as chemicals..

Experimented with it for years.

Organics will taste a tad bit better..

Its a trade off.

Id say chemicals is perfect for a cash crop, and Organics is great for your own personal stash.

Peace

That definition is obviously limited to indoor growers.

Average for unsulphured black strap molasses is 1-0-5. Its importance to plants is sugars, carbohydrates, potash, sulfur and especially feeding the microherd that actually breaks down and delivers NPK nutrients to plants. I always include molasses in my AACT teas.

Funny how inexpensive molasses functions in the agriculture process exactly the same as very pricey 'nutes' with flashy names and serious advertising budgets.

I utilize Fox Farms Nutrient Regimn and I follow that strictly! I do deviate in the beginning of the plants life and only go half strength till plant has grown enough to be able to handle full dosage. Moreso, I also start feeding with un-sulphured molasses(organic) around the third week of flowering and I hit them with the molasses only on days I fertilize. Lastly, I do FLUSH, regardless if im growing indoors or outdoors ( as always IM A DIRTBAGGER), with distilled H20. I am a medical grower, and this works great for me to really enjoy a smooth smoke that retains plant charicteristics. Oh and if bragging rights are considered, my smoke wins awards, 12 to be exact at current moment. Hope this helps. FIRE IN DA HOLE!!!

If you're using Fox Farms nutrients full lineup you'd have to flush in an attempt to get rid of some of the chemical residue. That's not what I'd consider organic growing, this is the organic forum, but to each his own.
