hightimesbcn

The idea of providing plants with organic or synthetic nutrients has been up for discussion for a long time. Although organic nutrients have been designed to make your cannabis strain(s) taste and smell great, they are not appropriate for all growing environments. On the other hand, artificial nutrients finally lead to blooms that taste like hash. Despite still being recognized to perform better in unique systems like the hydroponic.

Organic Cannabis Fertilizers

Organic plant nutrients come from natural and living sources. These nutrients are designed to focus on working with microorganisms and provide the plant with all the nutrients it needs to strive and produce a bountiful harvest. Organic nutrients can be tapped from natural sources or substances like manure, bat guano, bone meal, fish meal, and gypsum.

Synthetic Cannabis Fertilizers

Synthetic, as the name implies, means artificial. Synthetic cannabis fertilizers are created or manufactured in laboratories to leave behind any harmful impurities. This type of fertilizer is rich in macro and micronutrients, engraved on the product packages for guidance and ease of use. Contrary to organic nutrients, which can only be utilized in soil or hydroponic systems, its synthetic equivalent may be used in both.
