oh members like you could take my time anyday and time cause I really enjoy and love talking to ya!
people can claim all they want but when I see 3-6% terp profiles consistency indoors and out and I only saw 1-4% max on 100’s of pheno’s when I tried non organics no matter what pheno and same pheno’s in organics did better, the results show and also plants and resistance to pest/mold and stress is also another stress peg removed from growing. And that’s a huge one !
i could see as a ag grower if the plant isn’t profitable and u can’t pay workers to water them than maybe organics would be hard to achieve at first , but that is also because these people destroyed their land to not going organics ( shoot before the ag take over all was organics lolz) , like I said even large scale if farmers wasn’t following the companies words and getting into their lies of easy sucess vs organics they could be growing water only m better tasting crops and for usa not only growing tax given corn and gmo soy mostly. It’s fucked up majority of veggies in usa are grown far away and trucked there. What a counter farming /produce way of doing stuff when majority of these states could grow their own if the government and people said enough is enough. Grow us legit veggies and localized fruit. I mean have u tried majority of these commerical veggies ‘fruit vs local even if it’s not organic ? Tasteless ( many doc say also way less nute value ) so many times but also their strains are by looks/shelf life. I get it they need that but there def can be a better medium cause I’m not buying taste,ess veggies and fruit lol
just sayings I’m willing to pay more for better plants grown and grown semi locally if possible vs acting like it’s not possible and allowing all our land to be contaminated including water for something that does nothing but help the 1% and corp side. it wasn’t intill we allowed some major lobbied and 1% like Monsanto to make this acceptable practice and logical farming vs growing real food and not fucking our land/water. shoot in last 30 years cause of choices like that is why our world has been more fucked over perm than any war , virus or plague and disease prolly all time combined and sad part is a lot of this damage could of been 100% avoided and was warned by truly smart and people who knew the rights and what the end results. this is also why I disagree why we allowed gov to be so involved with stuff they def shoumdt make the final say, lobbyism for such is sooo dangerous! Not trying to be political or debative but this is such dishonorable but also shouldn’t even be a debate ?
same with weed quality , idc anymore if I make a dime cause after growing and making sure my process/cure is prime goal and I couldn’t rely on others weed, majority Of cannabis like veggies isn’t grown to my standards but also process/cure isnt done correctly . I’d admit it made me like a wine/cigar taster/tester , but iits so easy to spot when mistakes are done now and it’s sad so much cause of cash exp for cannabis is neglected on a few steps tbh. like veggies/fruit I hope cannabis being corp driven right now they can also realize quality cannot be bought but also skip natures steps to achieve , u can buy as many expensive bottles and have milllions in a built facility but I don’t think u can skip natures cemented needs to achieve a true plants desire and need for bacteria/fungi relationship and that nature medium of ecosystem. plus the lab tests show biologicals and micro nutes is way more boost for terps and potency than over pushing ur npk levels. It’s amazing how more I apply that’s alive less nutes I need and if not see better results by doing so and more sticky/potent and less stressed plants.
I get it I’m rambling but it’s the growing ocd passion thang. Love everything about it ( I’m sure family members and friends are sick of it too lol)
Love hearing a fella like you bh spell it out.
Since the DDT era western farming practices have degraded and destroyed all the microbes in the soil (beneficial or not they are there to serve a purpose), from pesticides, herbicides, continually tearing up the ground, scalloping, glazing and hardening over time from power harrow and rotary hoes the methods have all combined. The proof is in the pudding, taste home grown vegetables or fruit and the freshness, crispness, flavour, juiciness are chalk and cheese from mass produced farms.
Up till the 70,s nearly every family had their own veggie patch and fruit trees in their back yard in Oz. Why did that change?
I'm confident with my thoughts and research on the matter....you only have to see what's going on in the world to realise.
Healthy clean fruit and vegetables with a healthy soil profile is necessary to help the body heal itself. Those microbes also impart lots of minerals to be uptaken by the plants that western farming practices don't. Non biased studies have shown that.
Cannabis is no different to any other plant that provides sustenance or medicinal help.
I love chatting about soil profiles are liken it to wineries.
Notice how one vineyard has the same grapes as another vineyard say 50km away. Yet the flavour profile can be completely complex and different. Micro climates is how I refer to them. Different soil different indigenous microbes and different percentages in different soil grades, sandy loam, silty clay, black sand. Different drainage rates, different organisms, different numbers, different humidity, different temp, rainfall etc.
I see cannabis as the same. Same equator can bring out different terps, flavours, size, yield, colours, all from different micro climate and microbes.
I love reading your journal bh, you know your stuff and are happy to impart your knowledge across to others here to help.
