More efficient? Think you got that ass-backwards there friend. Chemical ferts are going to be more efficient, chemical ferts give your plant the exact nutrients it needs without any delay. When you use organic nutes or it gets them from the surrounding environment, it has to first absorb the raw material and then convert it into the usable chemical. Organic ferts are a good choice for a smoother smoke, or at least that is the argument. I think good flushing can really minimize any ill effects from it. And spraying the plants with nutrient water is called foliage feeding and you should do a lot more research before you attempt it. Just take whatever the nutrients box suggest for a gallon of water (ie 1 tsp, 2 tsp,) and cut it in half to be safe, you can slowly increase it at the subsequent feedings. If the plants are in like 5gallon buckets your going to want to give them at least a 1.5-2 gallons. I have 2 gallon buckets and use about a half gallon per plant. Hope that helps!
i guess we got different views on whats efficient,i think the more you get a line of genetics adapted to something that is non natural, the less efficient it becomes over time as the more non responsive it becomes to its natural enviorment, witch is not efficient in my eyes
every thing should be fine if there is no problems with the pH,the yield with organic food should be no different then the yield with chemical food ,only with the organic food the final properly cured bud will be of a higher quality then that of chemical grown bud,this is my opinion !
