An electrolyte imbalance isn't the same as washing Calcium out of your teeth by drinking loads of water.
You don't get bigger plants by feeding them more nutrients, you get bigger plants by giving them the right amount of nutrients at the right time.
The advantage of a hydro system comes from the increased amounts of oxygen available to the roots.
^^bigger plants is not a result of simply feeding nutes at the right times, which times would you be reffering to here?? are these times strain specific? or do you mean by reading plants?.....yes, coco does not produce an enviroment with increased oxygen, hydro like water....clues in the name lol
Coco is hydroponic by definition, you don't get to rewrite the dictionary based on opinion.
^^Agreed but i am perfectly within my rights to have and voice my opinion even if it does go against the dictionary...
Just because coco is found in soil mixes means nothing, coco on its own is an inert (no nutritional value of it's own) medium and merely serves as a platform for the root mass.
^^ yep im sure we are all fimilar with coco....soil also serves as a platform for roots....however neither of these mediums are anything like using water as a medium.
I wouldn't know about flushing vids because I don't learn how to grow plants by watching youtube.
^^theres a hole world out there mate, try it. you can even watch garden time on there.....
If you grow nice healthy plants without over ferting them then come harvest time you dry those buds so they smoke, then cure them to break down the chlorophyll and bring out the taste.
^^agreed^^
At this point the buds taste exactly like mother nature intended, if you don't like the taste of the weed at this point then grow a different strain that tastes nice to you or cure it better.
^^oh no i think this is really were your argument (which is supported by very little actual facts!) breaks down, i am not mother nature and there certainly isnt anything natural about growing in an indoor garden period. even outdoors using pots isnt natural....drop the hippy shit man!!
To grow a healthy plant up and then create an intentional deficiency before harvest so that the bud tastes better to you is like ordering a Stella Top in the pub because you don't like the taste of strong beer!
^^any proof,do you know exactly how cannabis uses food and water in the last weeks off its life??
You will notice a difference in the taste of weed that has been deficient in the last few weeks as opposed to weed that hasn't obviously but whether it tastes better is subjective,
^so basically your saying even if it does taste better its just subjective??
creating a deficiency in late flower is certainly counter productive to potency and yield without mentioning the natural taste hit.
^^how do you know this??
Take 2 Psycho clones (hmmmmm musky berry twang), 1 healthy as fuck all the way through and 1 healthy as fuck all the way through until the last 2-3 weeks where it's fed plain water to the point that it breaks down causing deficiency's.
If you think the latter makes the better plant you're in the wrong game mate.
