All the soil grown I've smoked was either Mexican brick (watch for bowl mines, they don't crackle they POP!!)or something that just happened to grow out back.:D

Just recently I've been trying the wares at dispensaries. One strain I liked the effect from is Sour diesel. So, I've bought 4 grams at three shops. First one was hydro. It was very good, great flavor and effect. Second was soil grown but lighter and airy(lower power lighting), it had the same effect as the first, tasted the same as well. Just not as dence. Most recent and Third was a hydro which was not flushed out enough. It had an odd Chem flavor which friends refused to smoke. Point is both can be lousy or Fabulous!

So just to be included in the fun,...

Hydro,.. Soil,... Hydro!,.. Soil!,..HYDRO!!,.. SOIL!!,..:beatdeadhorse:

im not going back and forth soil or hydro i'll say again everybody stop growing hydro go to soil and stay...everyone but me:jointsmile:

One thing I have noticed first hand is that if you know someone who can grow da dankness in hydro if they ever switch back or go to soil they seem to handle ph/nutrition with ease and often do really well in soil and make some yummy goodness! Being more disciplined in general is always something I can admire.

Couple people in here have said "it's all in the soil" - meaning the potency, taste and overall quality is directly related to the mixture of soil.

I know an old man who has been growing for 50yrs. He grows in big beds and uses the LST method to grow very short plants/bushes. He grows some of the dankest - fuck you out of your mind - 1 hit wonder - knock you on the couch for HOURS weed I've ever smoked.

He still won't tell me EXACTLY what ratio of ingredients he uses in his soil beds. But he said he uses bat shit and all kinds of other crap. Literally - he puts several different kinds of poop in his soil. He gets between 6-8oz per plant finished product.

If I knew what he was doing and I had the means to duplicate it - I'd be rich. The dispensary comes to him for pick-up and they pay him cash. They pay him $5000 a pound. :eek:

the old island boys around here have their own mix too..
some of them use a TON of seaweed and lobster shells..
want to taste some dank pot. grow it by the sea..

We are lucky to live in "today". Things relating to agriculture are so readily available to larger markets and the quality of results people are able to have are amazing. A relationship with earth naturally comes through in the final product IMO. I never would have thought 15 years ago I would be shopping for aged bat guano/kelp.shells for the perfect herb but now wouldn't garden without stuff like that. :yippee:

At $5000/lb, I think someone's pulling your leg.

I don't. I've known the guy for years and he's not the kind of guy to lie about something like that. Seen his grows and smoked his stuff. I just wish I knew how to duplicate it.

Any idea which ones he sells to? I'd love to try some!
