Growing without synthetic

[easylife]

Hi!

Im new in smoking weed. I bought some weed from dealers and they were nothing. But I read all about how much people loving it in youtube comments and such. The weed im getting was getting better every time. But even tho its not really good. Than I learn the real weed (or mj lets say) starts from 15 THC. Like it sits and fits. The maximized effects, otherwise its smt makes u high or not fully done. Its %20 of its true potential. Am I right ?

In where im at, people dont know what good weed is nor THC stuff. So I believe thats why grower/dealers weed is max 10-12 THC. I learned this: If you feel "i smoked pot" (i never felt that before) its classic 10 THC high gpt said. And one time it was better than that. So i guessed its 12 THC.

But in my first grow i got couch lock and all the stuff Whic was 15 THC + it should be. So a good person said to me "its 18 THC" by looking at the plant.

Im guessing dealers/growers dont use synthetic nutrients here for some reasons. So weed is always lower than 15.

Do you agree the 15 THC gap/capture point ? And can I achieve 15 THC without using synthetic nutrients ?

Thank you

Define synthetic nutrients in the context you are using it in please.

Do not use synthetic plant growth regulators. These are used commonly on black market grown weed and are seriously damaging for your health.

I thought its classic, one and only:

mykos xtreme gardening
voodoo juice
grow
bloom
ph -/+
cal/mag

And ph pen is become trouble. Its not working normal anymore. I calibrated but still same. Any practical solutions ? Or any solid labels for pen ?

Dealers have no idea about "ph" at all. And their weed like 12 THC. So my main goal is; grow 15 THC+ with small tricks, natural boosts.

BlueLab or Apera for PH pens are reliable but priced accordingly and still need regular and proper care, maintenance, and calibration

noted thanks

PH labs has the best pens IMO but I dont know if they are really worth the extra costs for a hobby grower.
Who us the manufacturer of the Grow Bloom & Calmag?

[easylife]

Flora Nova or NovaMax. It should worth it.

The pen reads -2/+2. So, on the first dip, it reads 5 in the water. We add a pH increaser with a 1cl syringe, and it goes directly to 6.5/7. We add a 1cl reducer this time, and it goes the opposite way. And the measurement takes a very long time. For example, it rises second by second: 5.50, 5.51, 5.52... and then the screen goes dark at 5.80, and it takes a full minute to register. We can't get a proper measurement. It's problematic in every way. Is there any chance we can get bottled water? Or the lemon juice method for pH?

Buy a new pen, a proper one

[easylife]

Yes, definitely a proper one. Recommendations are; PH labs, BlueLab, Apera and Vivosun

[Bluey]

Apera make lab grade pH and EC pens. They have there own Anazon shop. They are perfectly accurate. Buy storage solution and calibration fluid from them also. Don't buy the Bluetooth model, waste of money

Thanks a lot for pen suggestions. How about growing without synthetics ?

[Smallgrow]

Yes,you can grow without salt based synthetic nutrients if that’s what you mean. Using something like super soil or living soil is the other option. it’s best to buy a premade soil to get started, making your own is another level of complication.

Yeah, thanks a lot. My main goal is low quantity of essentials. Just super soil itself will do ?

Hi. Easy... I honestly think you are overthinking the whole grow thing, which is common among newer growers. Not dissing your post. I am a Master Gardener and have seen it all before - veggies or pot. Walk before you run.

Try coco/perlite and 1/2 strength GH Trio + CaliMagic, fabric pots with saucers and risers, pH around 6.0 +/- 0.2. (I use a cheap Vivosun pen, comparing it at calibration with cheap paper test strips).
Read the EXCELLENT info on GWE. Buy a good tent and light. 10% THC ugly buds will get you as high as beautiful 30% THC buds. Just need to smoke some extra 10% flower.

Wishing you the best.

Hi. Actually i dont want to think about it Supplying those (i listed) is kinda hard for me. Im looking for easy grow. But it has to grow kick ass weed tho I dont know is it possible or not.

The pen broke in the middle of the growth process, and we had a lot of trouble. I dont remember the label (now i dont have the pen right now) but its like this: https://ibb.co/yF4Tbfj4

Your list is shorter than mine. So im going to try that I dont have tent. I grow in outdoor in pots.

`Just need to smoke some extra 10% flower.` I didnt understand that.
So you are saying 10 THC and 30 THC are same ? And there is no capture point ? Or min should be 10 ?

[Smallgrow]

I think they just mean if your weed is not strong enough just smoke a second joint
