It's possible that what you are describing has to do with selection by the breeder based on the expression of pheno types when grown with synthetic nutrients vs organic. It sounds like(and correct me if I'm wrong) what you are positting is that when strains are bred by breeders who were using...

I had a friend who traded some weed for some backstage passes to a P-Funk show. I was hanging out in the dressing room with the band, I loaded up some pot and passed it around. I was having a blast passing around the pipe and just listening when I heard someone say "hey Syl' you want this", they...

I like seeds over clones. I don't know if that constitutes an unpopular opinion or not.

That's really interesting, I've never made that correlation before. See thats passion.

Have you ever done the experiment in school as a kid where you split a celery stalk partway lengthwise and put one half in a cup with blue dye and the other in red? It's like that with nutrients. Plants will absorb what you give them, so we get to decide what we like best, I love it. Do you like...

I agree you totally get different expressions, different terpenes when growing organic vs synthetic. It's kinda neat, I love playing with different growing methods and different inputs. It's part of why no two peoples pot ever turns out the same, or even different runs of strains from the same...

You are the one claiming cup wins = the best pot. Lets stop, this is pointless.

That's confusing, you are the one who claimed cannabis cups = better pot so the burden of proof is on you. Truthfully neither of us can prove either claim, so let's just drop it. To address your statement about breeders being able to grow out hundreds or thousands of plants for pheno hunting...

Oh man that's terrible, so sorry! I am lucky to live in a rural area with very favorable weather and very few thefts.

You are the one that claimed that cannabis cups wins = the best pot. The burden of proof is on you. It does seem like we are getting a little off track though, no? Organic-vs-synthetic nutrients.

One of the reasons that I grow organically is simplicity. I'm an outdoor soil greenhouse grower and throwing some compost and dry amendments in/on the soil is very simple and low maintenance. No monitoring ppms, no mixing anything, very little need to monitor ph and you'd have to try hard to...

Prove to me that most cannabis cups are not fake, do it with definitive proof. Less time typing more time smoking.

Cups are more analogous of a beauty contest than a boxing match. In a boxing match there is a clear winner, the person on the ground is the loser and the person who didn't get knocked out is the winner. That's an objective win, the taste smell and effect of weed is a subjective judgement like...

Simple, profit. Corporate entities are motivated by profit and in the case of cups the promotion of a product. As opposed to home growers who are motivated by passion for cannabis. It sounds like your research into cup winners has sparked an interest in finding the best strains, that's cool. I...
