From Botanicare to Miracle-Gro?

Hahaha.. I guess so, because now I'm anti liquids.
I think liquids is unnatural.

Organic granular from Miracle-Gro.
All purpose?? Could be the best budget fert. IDK

Kauai weather will flush your pot every week/month. Granular again has another plus to liquids.

There are many other dry nutrient blends that are similarly priced or cheaper that are better suited for growing cannabis and dont support companies like Scotts/MG

Aloha, everybody!

I've been growing about a year on Kaua'i and I'm trying to get some genuine Kaua'i Electric. Has anyone here grown or at least had the real stuff? Vader at Ocean Grown recently did a preservation round of seeds. the plants he grew had about 25% purple phenos, which I hadn't heard from other descriptions of the strain. Vader's video on the grow is here:

There's clearly some fake-ass Kaua'i Electric being sold, for example: https://phylos.bio/sims/variety/PGT-180612/hawaiian-seed-company/kauai-electric and https://phylos.bio/sims/variety/PGT-88218/hawaiian-seed-company/powerline .

So I'm wondering if it's worth $100 a pack for these: https://www.lumberjackseedsource.com/product/kauai-electrics/ . The "Hawaiian Seed Company" ones are clearly fakes, and IMO clearly done with the intent to deceive. I trust Vader's integrity but his stuff is only as honest as the guy he got his seeds from, you know?

I will never forget the incredible smoke I got from the Duke of Kauai in 1980. They called it Kauai Electric but I read that Kauai Electric referred to indoor grown (electric) buds. The smoke the Duke had was from 30 foot monster plants growing behind a wall of pitbulls in cages.
That was the only buds I ever smoked that made me trip. Not hard like mushrooms or acid. Instead I was hovering right on the edge with enhanced visuals and sounds.

The Rev talks about plants grown around bamboo acquiring this trait. Dukes plants were in the middle of a bamboo forest. Just sayin'.

we got some called Kuai electric from some Samoans in San Diego 1981 or so. Intense fruity goodness all the way through the bowl and as you say almost hallucination weed. It was electrifying herb.
is why we thought it was called kuai electric. So. Not sure if some of the old stories are correct bout this heirloom cultivar. Was special ganja for sure one of my all time favs

You basically just need enough power to run a few 10w LED bulbs a couple hours at night. I think one car battery plus a power inverter would provide enough power to accomplish that but it depends if you plan on expanding your system. They've got some cheaper kits on amazon that include a couple panels and a charge controller, then you would just need to add a battery and power inverter so you can plug stuff in like a regular outlet.
