Uncle Ben they mainly be sheep not Rams. No desire to learn why, just be told what to do. Doesn't work that way in real life, but few are living that firmly based in reality. Too stoned, too often to learn much. Copiers and followers, oh my!
Try to tels them about recommended ratios N, N:K, Ca:N, Mg:N, or P:S. Or how roots dump OH- or H+ to maintain, ionic neutrality in their roots (ie adding all + and minus charges must produce zero). Then there are all the standards that efect everything such as pH, temp, CO2 levels, lighting intensity, strains penotypes, growing methods, organic/inorganic etc etc. Watch their eyes roll back in their skulls.
gimme gimme. Point me to s good example; well-thought out, scientific piece that isnt arrogantly thrown together assuming that all of us can interpret quantum physics and make our own chemical compounds from 8th grade chemistry knowledge. Asshattery aside, I am more than willing to soak up any knowledge from educated folks such as yourself and Uncle Ben. I enjoyed his piece on humidity and have followed a few posts.
Please excuse my misinterpretation of a nutrient forum. I would however, love to try and comprehend why and how my plants do what they do and take in nutrients in a certain way, but I barely passed chemistry in college and that was like I hear algebra and calculus is for others. I need the information presented in an easily understood manner that has concrete enough examples and hands on opportunities to experiment and employ the processes.
I can take pictures and compare mine to photos of plants experiencing like symptoms, and make an educated guess as to how to correct the problem, but havent come across enough detailed, scientific information.
I think a nute forum would promote someone making a really nice, knowledgeable thread that really helps people understand the complex means by which plants grow, and maybe us pot smokers can pass that knowledge on and apply it to other plants, crops and whatever.
Spread the Knowledge!
