Very well said!Well 1 and 1/2 hours of reading and 15 pages of crap!
What we seem to forget is anything cannabis specific is a business and businesses want to make money. We all know that these companies are using sales pitches, it's called marketing. They spend alot of money in research and time and that is why they charge what they do, because research tell's them we will pay anything if we tell em it does something amazing.
How many of us are using FF, AN, BioBizz, Canna or any other number of cannabis specific nutes. Well you just put another dollar into someone's pocket. Ask yourself why did I start using these and most likely it is because someone said it was amazing and worked for them or they read it in a forum somewhere
In the end, these companies are asking us to pay for there time as is Prof M/J. The time it took to research,develope,manufacture, market and finaly distribute there product and we do! If people choose to pay for his services, than so be it. That's why it's called free will.
Peace
Amen to that my brother!i agree bigby!! Marijuana is a wonderful gift to us from JAH. This herb ws meant to OPEN the mind and heart, and UNITE us all.
Thanks TeeFive, you can use a tool called a "Brix" meter, the same as wine makers when checking their grapes. By tracking the sugar levels of your plants you can see long before the plant will tell you that the plant has matured but even more important when there's a problem. Cannabis when thriving will have a sugar content of between 10 and 12 percent, when the plant has been deprived of food or other enviromental factors, as well as disease, the sugar content will start to drop. This is a sure way to see a problem early, if you are approaching harvest and the sugar starts a nose dive it is ready to harvest 36 hours from the onset of the drop. This is easily the most effective way to know when your plant has reached it's maximun potency, anylonger and it will start to degrade. Hope that helps.
Don't have any plans to visit my nieghbors up north as of now, I have a policy of coming and spending a day teaching for any club or group that can cover expences of the trip. Perhaps we can look to see if there's any interest in your area if you can let me know where it is you're from.
As my name might imply, I'm very familiar with refractometers. Where are you getting the liquid to get your reading? Are you pressing leaves or breaking stems?This is becoming to pedictable, my wife and I sat here saying someone would talk shit to the "Brix" meter. Thank you fdd, I suspect the earlier post was correct, probably been growing longer than you've been alive???? Couldn't possibly have technology that is intended for a differant industry be good for us pot growers. Indeed the brix meter is the best little secret good growers have, I know long before the plant shows anything that there's a problem by watching the plant sugar level.
Worth the small cost ($125 US).

as you bitch about everyone else. oh, the irony of it all.damn yall, it would be nice if everyone would let opinions and techniques and simple statements made by someone just ride. is everyone with a bad attitude out of weed and on this forum to look at ganja buds and jackoff? i've read 20 different ways and opinions about 100 different things about mj on this site and i don't feel the need to call bs just because someone else does it or said it different. as a GROUP of people that are in the same canoe, that are still criminals in your hometown for a plant (non-med states), i would figure there should be more brotherly love and respect. who cares if a person lies, let em. who cares if they make up some shit to answer a question, let em. who cares if they grew tomatoes once and now they are ganja gods, let em for the sake of goodness.
i guess what i'm tryin to say is
CAN"T WE ALL JUST GET ALONG?
you just went on a full rant about everyone ranting. i'm high enough that i see it.damn, fdd2blk, you do need that free weed! no bitchin goin on here i'm smilin in a cloud of smoke. spark one and show some love.
lmao, maybe you should go and do a little research on how websites work. dodgy because the url doesn't change, LOLwtf?
It's a dodgy website. the url remains the same no matter the page. A quick search though will bring up what I stated. I've never read the flowering time before in my life. The growers i knew growing it flowered it in around 7 weeks... and it became a type of common knowledge in my area and in others across the UK that AK47 was named so because it is meant to flower in 47 days. anyone breeding AK together should expect a short flower period, imo.
Yeah and the breeder says 53 days... read it before responding. that's not 11 weeks is it, and is much closer to 47 days. AK is also so strong that taking at 47 days is no problem, especially when getting a nice phenotype.lmao, maybe you should go and do a little research on how websites work. dodgy because the url doesn't change, LOL
and i would not be surprised if it is "common knowledge", i mean all i ever see is early chopped crap floating around the UK. something tells me the breeder knows better, especially given that it is in breeders financial interest to quote as low a flowering time as they think they can get away with.
oh, and my 4" clone went from 4" to 3 foot and will easily be pulling in around 3oz. is that bullshit? because it certainly doesn't look like that in my cabinet right now.
You're selling an elixir of knowledge... some truths mixed in with a heavy dose of bullshit said:ok i agree, i was rantin about ranters, sorry. this is actually what i was tryin to say. +rep skunk.
