Is Bio-Canna the only true organic nutrient range?

Im really interested in organic growing, Canna must be good as they are based in Holland, i also heard that they are the only OMRI listed nutrients, so really they are the only organic nutrients right?
Officially speaking...

I just saw one dudes grow here using Bio-Canna, his plants look so healthy, anyone else using these nutrients?

:peace:

There are many organic nutrients on the market. :-)
Plants don't care about brand names, only consumers do. hahaha

As far as a person's grow? Nutrition is only one spoke on the wheel. The pictures you saw from the guy using Canna has ALL the spokes on the wheel...nutrition, ph, soil, temp, etc.

If you have any specific questions, don't hesitate to PM. If not, Merry Christmas!

I dont live in the US bro, no blue mountain here...

No specific questions, just wondering if the OMRI listing & Canna being based in Holland makes any people feel more assured that the nutes are god for growing great organic Marijuana, if the nutes can rival the rest of the nutes out there for growing grade A bud?

Im using the Bio-Canna range at the mo & im interested in other people who have used it, if any of you are out there id love to see pics of bud you grew using Bio-Canna....

Merry christmas!

just because they are not OMRI certified doesn't mean that they are not 100% truly organic. The process of getting OMRI certified takes a long time alot of expensive testing that the company must pay for and is a time consuming process. like the new general organics line which is not omri but def organic all the way they chose not to get the certificate because it would have delayed the release a long time. BMO is great got to be the best for the money to. will be using it with my next grow. havent tried the canna but with how cheap BMO is i think ill have a hard time changing. just make sure the company is reputable.

I haved used BMO in the past. People think they are cheap because they sell a 16 oz. bottle of grow, bloom, tonic for $7.25 each. A 16 oz. bottle of grow and bloom makes 32 gallons, a gallon of tonic makes less. that breaks down to around .22 (cents) per/gallon made. A gallon of FF grow big can make 384 gallons @ (2) tea spoons/gallon. thats just over .14 (cents) per gallon. FF is way cheaper that BMO. Thought people might want to know.

you are on an organics thread comparing the price of BMO and FF grow. number 1 ff grow big is not organic. so you cant compare those. organic nutes are almost always more expensive than synthetic. and i am getting them a 6 dollars a bottle shipped. and yea there are some organic nutes that are a lot more concentrated and come out about the same price per gallon. but i dont grow tons of plants and i never used all the nutes b4 they go bad so for BMO is the way to go i no im always getting fresh nutes and i use the mutes at 1/2 to 1/4 strength so i get 64-128 gallons out of each bottle.

guys on RIU including myself have had great results with BMO and we are growing all organic unlike you whose using FF which is not organic,except for the big bloom supplement. you came on a thread with the words "only true organic" in it talking about how ff lines is so much better than BMO when FF is NOT organic.

i think BMO is great! The only fact that I stated is that it's not a cheap alternative to other nutes, inorganic or not. i have used BMO in the past and I know for a fact that it is expensive compared to others. Even if you go %50 on the nutes it's big $$$$.

Excuse me if I'm ignorant but are you starting the old organic cultivation is only done in soil argument?

As far as I know you can use a hydroponic system and use all organic nutrients. For one, ff is listed on dozens of websites with dozens of organic products under the organic nutes section.

Love to canna mediums---They have the most PH stable mediums on the market. The Terra professional plus keeps a perfect 6.5 ph for up to 14 weeks with their micro encapsulated slow release lime charge......great stuff!!!

we are just talkin about nutes here. i never said anything about organics not being able to be used in hydro. it is a lot more difficult to use organics in hydro than chem ferts. i grow in soil little slower but i like the final flavor in buds better than hydro grown buds. and all i said bout ff in is that the are NOT organic the only thing that is organic from them are thier big bloom and dry ferts. im not saying ff is not quality nutes(except thier OF soil is terrible now that it is made in sc instead of west coast, it has too much bark in it) i loved the old OF but now use roots organic nothing wrong with FF unless you are wanting to organic. i don't grow a hundred plants so BMO is the best option for me. i no i am getting fresh nutes is why i love them the most the bottles have a batch date right on the label.

their liquid nutes are only organic "based" that is why they are in the organics section on many sites.

Thanks for the clarification. I am interested but have never grown myself so for about a year I've just been absorbing information. This was always a puzzling question to me. Many people have always said to me true organic growing is only done in soil. If I was growing right now I would think soil would be the easiest to maintain for a newbie and would most likely have the best flavor at the end.

Is that accurate?

I know there's always room for improvement but couldn't a rookie grower achieve decent results in soil using a compost mix + 1 application of organic nutrients to last the entire flowering cycle?

That would make it very easy to maintain for the new kid on the block. One would only be concerned with watering and temps at that point.

soil is a lot easier for a newbie then hydro. its a lot easier to mess up with hydro, alot more factors to control, as well as more equipment required. with a good compost soil u won't need to give nutes during veg. once flowering just apply watever nute you are using at 1/8 to 1/4 recommended to start and gradually increase one mL at a time if using concetrated nutes.

TRUE organics and hydro just dont go together. (not sayin it wont work at all)
Nor does organics and noobs. True organics is an artwork that the boys in cali have almost mastered.
When u stop using soluble foods and switch to organics , its a whole new ball game. organic food is not readily available to the plant so it has to be "broken down" by the soil microbes.
Mixing compost in your "mix" is very very important unless you are going to buy live microbes by the bottle. microbes are more important then any nute out there.

all noobs should start with dirt/soluble food or hydro/soluble food.
yes hydro has more equipment but it is SO easy to do, if you have a couple meters , its hard to go wrong.

Earth Juice is %100 organic, and cheap. Just make sure you run the full line as directed. I'm on my third run with the stuff and love it.

And don't forget that you can also go 100% organic using a soiless mix, coco preferably, and get hydro-like results, using soil methods. Just keep your PH at hydro levels instead of soil levels.
