Florida Growers Thread; Reloaded

[gh0st9]

Organic soil may have the most petulant, impatient, blinded, vindictive and judgemental subsects there are in the canna growing world. The further you go in those realms the worse the militant echochamber becomes. Now I'm not saying every organic grower is culpable. In fact quite the opposite some of the best, most kindhearted, most skilled growers I know or see come out of this camp as well.. it just gets me how lots of these people will bash science and methodology or data when it doesn't suit their viewpoint but otherwise when they need quantifiable sets of data to back their claims or refute others' then plant science is required... Can't count how many times I've seen the classic fallacy - "natives been growing without x or y for eons!!! Thank god for botanists and plant sciences (heavy Sarcasm)" then turn around and ask for academic links in another post.

^^my two cents on the whole organics forum matter. As you guys can plainly see, I don't care much for militant hippies..

That is precisely why my summary of organic information is in a single post, made into a sticky, on my own sub-forum...and the thread LOCKED.

At the point when it becomes an ideology I tend to step aside and let those who are more...certain of their place in the world...take the lead. I'm just trying to grow the best medicine I possibly can - not create a cult or have acolytes.

I 100% believe what is put in the soil has a direct impact on the flavor of the flowers. (wine and food grown in particular regions having special tastes is a perfect example of mineral content affecting flavors) I've tested this out with multiple strains in different mixes against a control.

All blood/bone/poultry based = more acidic flavor and notes

All guanos = more earthy, musty notes

All plant matter = grainy (smell oatmeal, rice, barley or corn), hay/grassy, wind blown notes (best I know how to put it)

It's actually why I use a 3 part approach when I amend my soils - something from all different aspects of the fertilizer spectrum. I found the combination of ingredients...the diversification of inputs...results in plants that are able to express themselves in a more true manner.

I also saw the need for diversification of amendments so I bought a bunch of different stuff this year. For years my basic mix utilized blood meal, bone meal, dolomite lime, hardwood ash and EWC.

I've completely eliminated the blood meal (except for top dress) and have added Feather meal, crab meal, kelp meal, steamed bone meal, alfalfa meal, biochar, oyster flour, soft rock phosphates and other rock dusts (Coot's mineral mix) in an attempt to improve flavors and aromas and am working on three different mixes for indicas, sativas and hybrids.

Anything you think I'm missing?
