How are plants grown organically?
Generally, organic growers do so in soil or a soilless mix. Occasionally, a hydroponics grower will use an organic nutrient solution, but most believe this is an invitation for root and pH problems (please see a more careful examination of hydro-organics and aquaponics below). ~shabang~ suggests that growers go one way or another: If you want the best yield, bar none, go with an aero or flow hydro table. Your bud won’t smoke as well and won’t have that earthy dankness after curing…if you want the best quality, use those organic ferts in a medium based on worm castings…You can use mostly GH {General Hydroponics Flora Series nutrients} and then supplement on the side with EJ {EarthJuice} Catalyst but know that its just a supplement, you are relying on the GH for the majority of the nutrients. If those chem ferts are present, they really inhibit the beneficial microbes that are needed to breakdown the organics.
