Mostly organic

I say mostly because I used tiger bloom 2 times during flower.
Also some have a problem with calling it organic if it has bat shit in it I think?
I know these are not the biggest or best you have ever looked at but they did very
well this time around. I think even with electricity I was under well under 250 for investment.
Even though I bought pre packaged products

Plants=
Bubba Kush,
Afwreck (Afghan x train wreck) Some call it plane wreck


Veg
Soil = Gardener & bloom blue ribbon

Tap water

Flowering
Soil = Gardener & bloom blue ribbon

Myko fungi

Extreme gardening tea (aact)
composted worm castings, kelp powder, humic acid derived from humus,
rock dust, meat meal, bone meal, Sulphate of potash.
Comes pre packaged for us lazy bastards and I used it as recommended on package

Budswel guano I used three times I think. 3tbs per gallon

Tigerbloom 4tbs per gallon (used it twice i think)

Molasses.

Tap water = I have a well and the water is fine.

You used Tiger Bloom TWICE?!? OMFG! I'd douse them with kerosine and burn them!!!!




JK, REALLY JK. Big woo, I've used chems in an organic grow when I needed something quick. Two times is like a no harm no foul unless you really want to be anal with the organic bit.

Bat shit is organic BTW. Pretty much all shit is.

Those plants are beautiful BTW. I'd be happy to smoke that.

Really, if I under apply some amendment (usually a N source), I'll grab the Jack's Classic.

The fastest thing (for me), is blood meal and that still takes 2 weeks before I see any results. Other things take even longer.

You do what you need to do to ensure a successful harvest and fuck that 100% organic BS. You alter your mix or when you top dress the next go round, it gets dialed in eventually.

With those plants and only needing to apply TB twice, I'd say you are really close to having it dialed. I'll bet you top dressed late for flowering. I know I did.

Nice mate!
IMO though anything that comes prepackaged isn't true organics, I like to know exactly what goes into my organic ferts and alot of store "organic" nutrients have had things added to speed up the composting etc.
I guess it's easy for me though, not everybody has nature at their backdoor offering free ferts everyday lol

It is just a learning curve for me. For some reason with the teas and stuff I`m learning slowly what I do and do not need.The labels on bottles confounded my brain. I think I`m running a simple solid diet that I trust not to fry my plants. As for top dressing I simply added 3 inches of new soil and Used the tiger bloom, budswel and tea to make up for any latency. I tried to stay ahead of the plants needs instead of waiting for them to show and it is working for me at this point. Best part is that I feel I pushed them along nicely and did no damage. Great feeling. Once I fire back up I intend to stick with what I have and tweak it as well as topping methods on each strain to see what I can get. I will have twice as much light when I start again so I`m giddy like a schoolgirl!

So if someone went out your backdoor and filled a bag with free amendments, then turned around and sold that bag the amendments it suddenly becomes anything but true organics?

You're lucky to have such great resources, but the rest of the world might not have that option, some of us buy prepacked 100% organic amendments and there is noting wrong with doing it either.

It's just an opinion mate, and I did say I realise not everybody has this option.
I'm sure there are legit organics for sale but you never know what people put in these days so I find it's best to make you're own.

I have thought about the compost pile, worm beds and all that but right now it would just be more than I can bite off.
At some point though I would like to be my own boss, lol

I buy prepackaged organics because generally its easier and cheaper for me...

I mean I get what I can but I dont have access to like a huge worm farm that can do 30-45 lbs. of castings a cycle.... or a kelp farm and etc. I do have a compost pile and everything but most of that goes into my veggie garden.

Most prepacked organics are neater/cleaner to work with too......

Anyway back the OP..... nice work dude!!!!! I use H&G's roots exceluator with my "organic" just add water mixes.... and idk if its organic or not... I do know it doesnt have a OMRI label so ummm...... still awesome work... a bit of tiget bloom isnt so bad compared to what i see some people passing off as organic.

I agree, I live on a farm and have alot available but I still get a bit iffy putting it with my indoor garden. I find the way is to make a tea with the compost and whatever you have, Keeps alot of the bugs out and makes it easier to work with. I have friends with small worm farms in their washroom or something, very small and tidy and great for near the kitchen.
Keep it up though charface those plants do look great so you must be doing good with the organic. If you have any meat works or chicken farms near you, they often give away blood/bone or chicken feathers/shit or it is very cheap from the source.

Wetdog is right, friggin' beautiful plants there Charface! Keep doin' what you're doin'. Being truly organic takes a lot of work and requires resources that not everyone has access to. I've been known to keep a jar of Botanicare cal/mag and a bottle of SuperBloom around just for emergencies!! LOL. Looks like you got it going on.
