Extracts are going like hotcakes around my circle :)

Wife is a bit pissed cause I keep stealing her parchment paper but with all the vap pens etc.out there..it seems to be catching on....for 68 bucks (with med discount) you can grab a decent pen locally.

10g of sugar trim makes a surprising amount of bho...the glass like consistancy is what seems to make people notice....Black domina + and my Sativa hybrid seems to be the best combo... Domina trim makes the most BHO per run of the 3 kinds of trim I have available....

I'd have to say that's kind of an opposite view of what I see the reality if the whole "organic" debate as.
I start by considering if I've ever seen and "inorganic" plant b4.
Other than plastic plants I can't say I have as they don't exist under the word organics truest definition.
Distinctions only even exist once you consider the word as redefined by marketing teams.

Once you go on to actually reading over the kind of regulations that the "organic" certification process consists of you start to see how big a bullshit marketing ploy it actually is.
It never says a farmer should do anything any usefully efficient farmer wouldn't do on thier own anyhow for the simple fact it saves them cash in doing so land n environment aside.
Add to that the fact that it doesn't realy prevent them from spraying whatever they want or need if they claim to need it enough or they'll loose the crop anyhow.
Which is why plenty of organic produce tests positive for pesticides n fungicides n shit anyhow.
Just as much as the non organic last time I heard of a comparison.
Far as dro goes, it's got 0 to do with organic or inorganic as much as it's a feed pace that gets sped up that only adds faster and more growth in the same relitive time line.
Can be the exact same food compared to any soil grow which would make it about as identicle as can be other than the fact it feeds a number of times a day more than any slower draining medium that stays saturated.
Nothing more than a faster pace of feeding n drying.
Produces nothing more but some added yield.
Not realy an issue of being any better or worse at all far as I see it, just not ocnvenient for all n others let thier ego's tell them thier method is always best no matter what anyone else does.

Can't listen to marketing that starts off by redefining words that have already long been defined.
Though I don't blame the farmers for catching on n doing what they have to do to compete either in this capitalists nirvana that is life in a north american fascism.

anywho, thas just my take on the whole absurd "organic" debate.
Cheers all,..............................................gps

wanna start something, you hash huffer? always with the diss, so nice you are :)

oh almost forgot, PEACE, HMK!
Good to see ya still paying attention. C'mon as an oil person yourself, would you say most folks are puffing properly purged oil? Not saying there is not good oil out there, just that it is NOT what most folks are dabbing(To fit in with the lingo). I do wonder what you would think about the purged thing. Peace GS
 
when I lived in Onterrible all I pretty much smoked was hydro and I can attest that indeed it is more 'potent' due to the fact is you have greater control over the plant, you are god and you can max out the potential moreso then with soil, it is what it is.

I do not grow hydro for cost reasons and keeping it simple with pretty much everything we do and I consider myself 'old school'..

..you know where a mans word is worth it's weight in gold, a handshake meant something, you'd hold a door open for a lady, respect your elders and appreciate what they have done and offer for life experience and the 'golden rule' was taught in public schools 'do unto others as you would have them do unto you'

what the fuck happened to society is obvious if you have a clue but I digress.

Hydro is more potent due to simply being able to have greater control over the plant (I know the factors involved are more in depth)

If your content to do your best, work with good strains and give the plants the love and attention they deserve then you should be content with your results, the only person we are competing with in life is ourselves regardless of whatever it may be.
Better yourself and and you'll always be a winner.

Well in reality growing in peat, coco, gravel, clay media and etc is still hydro as in hydroponics. You know growing plants in inert media or growing plants with mineral salts with the roots suspended in the nutrient solution.

I've noticed there is allot of crap around and people are trying to pass it on for top shelf prices. Guys who think its easy to grow but then realize the work involved along with knowing how to deal with bugs or other issues when they show up, also the heat problems that happened this summer let alone proper dehumidification.
Quality seems to be in demand. Crap isn't.

Soil or soiless mix will yield more thc content, potency and smell over hydro. Only thing hydro has over soiless is speed of growth and yield. There's a reason 90% of growers and OG growers who have been growing for 30 years grow in soiless mixes.

I love my soilless mix and organic liquid nutes...
flood the pots, drain to waste, let em dry out...repeat...Mix can only hold so much fluid, keep the mix nice and light and it is pretty hard to screw up.
