How To Increase Flavor In Your Plants! (Garden Talk

[@GardenTalkwithMrGrowIt]

Thanks to Tim McCormick for coming onto the podcast today! Tim’s channel- bit.ly/3joGJuK

[@t3dwards13]

I love that I want to listen to your interviews multiple times! Another awesome wealth of knowledge. Although I'm sure it's like drawing blood from a human... I find it amusing that that they're destroying a plant to measure it's health.

[@backbone93]

You know what would be great, im sure you already heard about people saying curing is not good for your product, even ed rosenthal isnt a fan of curing from what i know It would be great if you would get 2 guests on with opposite stances to topics like that or about whatever and try to get to "the bottom" of things Sure you can make it many ways and there is no definitive answer, but such debates with facts where people disagree with each other and bring science and facts and expirience into it would be great for me to watch

[@brianmadison1393]

Chris what a great show..best one in my opinion next to bugsby.. grow on my friend

[@sencer1411]

just wanna add something that ive learned from my grandfather who has been farming for decades sulfer,mag,and chitosean also increases terp profile as well.I use a small amount of down to earth langabenite hope i spelled it correctly lol but i do notice buds are more terpy when i add these in a tea or top dress along with uv lighting.

[@DogSaveTheBreen]

Great podcast. Great work peace from the green grass of Ireland

[@Caligenes]

Great job yet again, Mr. Grow It! One of my favorite things about your show is that you’re an intelligent and thoughtful interviewer, Chris, and I suspect this has a lot to do with the fact that you’re a home grower yourself, and so you ask pointed questions that are relevant to the rest of us. Furthermore, you’re always quick to clear up terminology and concepts which might be unfamiliar to the general audience, and this refusal to engage in grow jargon as a means of self-aggrandizement shows you to be a true educator and humble lifelong student. Thanks again for all the priceless knowledge!

[@GardenTalkwithMrGrowIt]

Wow I really appreciate your positive words! I’m going to keep going at it 👊 Cheers! 🌱

[@Caligenes]

I call it like I see it, Chris. Your show is head and shoulders above anything similar, and for the great service that you provide our community you deserve every slice of success coming your way! I’ll send you some more beans soon.

[@cannabiscations]

Over a year later and this is still helping people. I was leaning towards hydro to put under my HLG Scorpion Ultima Diablo and now I have to really think about how I want to grow. Used coco and Vegamatrix years ago when I used to grow and wasn’t impressed. Great information packed video!

[@WeGrowRoots]

What a great episode. Tim and the whole cultured biologix team are on to something special here. Going to have to rewatch this 3 or 4 times.

[@Hipsters_N_Hippies]

Thank you, you’re like a big brother to so many of us. And after my first harvest I actually felt better about myself. And I just want you to be aware that you had a role in helping me to get out of a 10 year funk I was in. Thank you for your part in making me a better man. ✌🏻

[@mopar426power]

Amen bro. I was in same kind of funk at one point. Growing definitely made me feel more "useful" and a lot better about myself. It may sound wierd to some I'm sure. I hope you are doing well! 🤙🤙

[@camhowelse5797]

💚🌞🌟

[@Hipsters_N_Hippies]

I’m doing well now. There are times in life when you’re going to have to deal with some difficult situations, get work done or help others. However you have to remember to take a step back. We can’t stay in the trenches forever....And please remember that it’s always easier to see somebody else going through it, Then it is to accept or realize that it’s happening to you. There is a time and place for everything. And that doesn’t just include dealing with life‘s difficulties. sometimes you just need to let your inner kid self come out, and just do what you wanna do.

[@mopar426power]

What a massive combo for info and just good knowledge. These talks are so good and I appreciate both of you for everything.

[@mtn4140]

One of my favorite guest on your channel. This guy is just straight to the point no BS. Solid info and easy to follow

[@WSAGenetics]

speaking about extremely high level information that ALOT of growers are not ready for but he puts it out in a way that most should be able to understand. Agreed. just seeing this video now and really enjoyed listening to him speak on these topics.

[@josephheinecke1992]

Really got a lot out of this lecture thank you! Mr. Grow it, you have taken over as my number one source on youtube. Love your approach and content. The guests are top notch. Love how you ask beginner level questions and circle back when you need more explanation. Helps the listener tremendously. Im happy I went organic!

[@odaharry]

One of the best videos yet! Great job Chris. I love info on increasing terpenes, smells n flavors ect. These days it’s all about maximizing quality and no so much yeild anymore for most people

[@gmolorin6529]

this guy is great!

[@MattHeite]

This was by far the best, most informative video I’ve ever seen on growing medicine. I would love to meet, shake this man’s hand and pick his brain, because everything he said is true for so many plants. Also continued success for future generations as organic gardening can help fix climate change. Imagine if “us” gardeners, as we grow larger cure what past generations have done to our crop lands. Looking forward to seeing more videos from both of you 🙏

[@kevinsnowden4672]

Sunday Morn in the garden is peaceful. Organic soil and natural sun seems to be easier 4me, w/ better taste and smell..w/o all the flushing. I grow as I go, then, maybe I "know".🙏🏾Chris Thanks!

Thank you so much Kevin!!!

[@Zword316]

This episode filled in SO MANY mental gaps for me! Excellent.

[@nzcoindealer]

Best episode yet Chris. I felt like Tim fills in logic and theory gaps by the dozen in this hour video which normally come one or two at a time if I'm lucky watching content. Tim for the growing side of Cannabis is like what Frenchy Cannoli has been to my hash making comprehension.

[@t9358]

Wow,,, just waking up and must watch this one a few times to get it. Huge thanks to both of you!

[@JeremyAndersonBoise]

I’ve seen Tim talk a couple times before and I am pumped for this episode.

[@ajmprovidence]

In my opinion. The most important thing you can do to preserve the smell and taste is to never allow your plants to get too hot. That goes for the entire life of the plant especially flower. And especially during the drying process

[@BrianM-44041]

Not so much in veg, but very true in flower

[@nathanhill6042]

Drying and curing is the biggest factor in terms of taste I’ve grown some good shit but dried it out too fast and it smelled like a haybale

[@kiroshi32]

Heat actually helps growth in Veg. But for sure lower heat in flower.

[@BrianM-44041]

@@kiroshi32 heat in veg increases growth as long as you have a higher humidity and plenty of CO2. That said, Not all varieties respond the same to heat and cold, depending on genetics. Equatorial cannabis seems to prefer heat, while northern varieties fo not always like it. The same is true of cold, genetics from colder climate respond differently to cooler temps, usually more favorably so.

[@garethpindard3583]

Not so true u need to check out natural temp of genectics some prefer higher some don't

[@az_dogwhisperer520]

I gave my plant some NOS energy drink for sugar, now it has a citrus-like smell! Works for me!

[@plutobonchii]

Mr Grow It , thank you , i put these videos on and just listening to all your interviews with different opinions provides me with a plethora of information not to mention its free!

[@markfcoble]

Black swamp water for fertilizer every three days or so. Outdoors from seed in well mulched soil, deep hole. Topping three or four times. Plenty of rain water, not tap. Lots of worms! For flowering i use molasses and compost teas on every watering. High mountain desert forest plateau hideout NM where its dry. No mold issues. Also have old fermented chicken litter water.....thirty days of fermentation and its great. Thanks for information.

[@corygardner3945]

The high ammonia content from the “chicken litter” doesn’t impact it adversely?

[@brendonstevens1209]

This is why I love my living soil. Between the cover crop, the worms, compost tea, all nutrients and microbes are being supplied to the plant at all times. Adding basalt creates a natural brix, organic silica helps with plant growth and cell development, even some fermented plant extracts for natural bloom booster.

[@BrianM-44041]

Basalt perhaps but definitely brix is a product of carbohydrates. Molasses being the most common or even dark brown sugar.

[@maxirodolfo7600]

Tims is one of my favorite .Full of knowledge

[@jeffreyalme6480]

Great questions, and fantastic guest! I could listing to Tim talk all day.

[@jeromedamian5740]

From experience, I've actually had the benefits of growing inside Blackberries. The end product did take on the profile of flavor and smells. Surprisingly, this was in the 80s , hence the blackberry kush name people gave it in LA. Crazy that .

[@easygrows2699]

I always plant basil together with my other plants, i did this long before any early research suggested that it might increase terpene production on neighbouring plants. Nature is the answer, monocultures would never survive without the farmers...

[@Sect76]

I could listen to Tim all day, I learnt so much today.

[@greasemonkey1880]

I’m loving the AC Infinity controller 69 pro. Once connected to wifi, making adjustments away from home is an awesome feature even if you just need to keep tabs on things

[@JordanBuzzy]

"That's why we see bad tomatoes everywhere." Preach Brother, preach!

[@pietroxavier2008]

I think that's because they choose genetics that gives them better yield as that's where the money comes from for the farmers.

[@TheOriginalGus364]

Best episode that you've ever done, Mr. Grow It! This guest was dropping knowledge!

Glad this interview happened, new grower here and was trying to decide if i wanted to try to grow organic or use synthetics .. looks like organic for me.. definitely learn something on every episode!! thanks for doing what you do!!

[@scottrichards3587]

All fertelizers are organic. Organic by definition means containing carbon atoms, basic high school chemistry. Organic label is a marketing ploy to charge more $. I've had great results using cheap miracle grow knockoff in veg period then switching to tomato fertelizer for flower stage.

[@414preservation7]

Hey Chris, great show, not just this one, but I've probably watched every episode, and I've learned so much from you and the CLTV family... Now I do have a quick question... I understand that when using synthetic, your water demand will be higher, so you can potentially "water away terpene profile and flavor." My question is, do you think it's possible to avoid this by feeding with every watering and never watering with just water? I don't know how clear the question is, but if you get what I'm asking, can you help me out?

[@WhatAboutZoidberg]

Get that bro-science outta here, Tim's comin with facts and data. This was the best podcast yet. Some really really important and new info.

21:22 what he means is that it basically changes the form of the nitrogen into a form the bacteria and stuff can easily break down for the plants to use and it shoots it into the ground. Then the soil life is able to transfer that nitrogen with the fresh water to the plants which spur growth.

[@metasamsara]

Great episode, I would have liked a deeper insight into mixing ratios for a supersoil that minimizes pests and maximizes root aeration and feed. Not necessary a organic vs synthetic but more of a how much earth, how much this or that, perlite vs dolomite, use of biochar, etc. All the different ways to inoculate the soil with mycorrhizae, inorganic medium vs organic medium in the context of organic feed (ie ratios of dirt vs cococoir to maximize microbial life while minimizing use of dirt, etc), etc... definitely down for part 3!

[@johnboykin3128]

Look up Cornell soil

[@backbone93]

worms are very good for airation if you go organic with living soil put some worms in there they will dig everything around

[@woodywoodpecker3643]

Early on in my growing years I kinda learned stink in stink out. Meaning the smellier the ferts I used, the smellier the weed I grew. Having access to free rabbit manure, we used it and produced some of the loudest weed ever. The rabbit manure always seemed to have that acrid ammonia, gassy smell. We rarely even composted long enough to break down the manure. The smells always translated to the buds, and it seemed to stay in the buds longer for storage. My first question would be- could a natural organic fertilizer be formulated that would translate into the weed- ie, something that directly smelled like skunk thiols, gas, fruit, etc? My second question would be how to raise or what level your brix should be at and how to get it there? My assumption has been to add molasses to raise the brix, but I have never measured the results. I just judged based on plant health and disease/pest resistance.

[@pellestorck3776]

Growing organic outside here in Thailand. Pretty hard but it's some of the best scented weed I've smelled. I reckon the plants get to work a bit they produce more terpenes.
