Is there a preference for cannibus or what. I'm using Ionic Grow and my plants are exploding. Vegging @ about 1 1/2 months old and about 12 inches tall. Growing 4 under 4 42W CFLs and them seem to be ballin. Any recommendations? I plan on getting a 400W HPS for flowering.

Organically grown weed tastes, burns and smells better. This is all opinion, but agreed upon by most who have tried both ways. Another + for organics is just that, it's organic and from the earth...it won't harm the environment.

Same here! I eat a pretty lousy diet seeing as how i am college student and i cant afford to eat organic all the time(wish i could). My diet consist of ling ling pot stickers from costco, lots of tacos because i go to school in a predominantly Hispanic neighborhood and theyr only a buck 25 at this one truck! And on mondays at this one tacqueria (forgive my spelling) there only a dollar flat! Pizza(big suprise) hot dogs, nachos from the 7-11, sloppy joes,and lots of cheap beer. But the one thing i always make sure is onganic is milk, it just taste so much better! and of course my nutrients for my babies.

Hello all... Of course, if you know me, you know I grow All ORGANIC.... it's the only way to go.....
.
Please guys, put down the tacos & pizza - try some fresh vegetables... If you can grow weed, your can grow veggies too....
.
Have a bananna with some Special K for breakfast - cheap & good for you...or take a cooking class in school - taste everyone's stuff - there's a free meal with less MSG.... Shit, dress up rag-a-dee and hit the local homeless soup kitchen...it would be better than the fast food to the grave diet....
.
Keep it Real...Organic.... cause processed foods & chemicals....are BAD....

Hell yea, Ohso. My girlfriend and I have an apartment garden on our back balcony, that in the spring/summer provide us with fresh tomatoes, potatoes, lettuce, green peppers, wheat grass, and a shit load of herbs. For the past seasons I've been using chems on them (along with my bud), but next season and next grow I am going to go all organic.

I figure that since we're vegan, for various reasons, that we should grow way healthier too.

and eating out of your own garden is an awesome feeling
remember the first time you lit up a smoke that you grew yourself ... how good was it.
samw when you eat your first home grown meal

I have been only feeding her maxicrop and r/o water for 2 weeks already-and she is on day 77 and ready

You don't need to flush your plants as good if you are using strictly organic nutes, but it is still recommended to give them one last good 2-step flush. Just so you get all of the nutey taste out of the buds.

First fill the pot with water so only a little comes out, like a regular watering, and let it sit for a little. Then flush that salt build-up outta dodge!

A good natural alternative where you don't even really need a long flush, is to use Botanicare's Clearex. You only really need to flush it a couple days before harvest. Also, remember that the soil should be fairly dry when harvesting.
