Sorry man. I was a little stressed to begin with, probably should have reworded things. No hard feelings on my end though, and I agree that Jorge shouldn't be everyone's standard reference point. He's pretty good, but very inconsistent.My point wasn't to offend you. It was more to stop other people from citing Jorge or Ed Rosenthal for that matter as if they were gods fucking gift to marijuana. Not saying you did that, but others often do. Need to thicken up that skin a little bro.
Fucking n00bs are always so sensitive LOL
But anyways, I foliar feed all the way through about week 5. I use a somewhat custom blend of liquid karma (4 ml/gallon) and this locally produced amino acid sugar solution which is basically just fancy molassis and some kelp additives (5ml gallon). Mixed with DM penetrator, sprayed with lights on twice a week.
Wow. Great link/ article. Thx for posting
Don't spray your buds at all, just the leaves. You really shouldn't be foliar feeding late in flowering just because of the moisture it puts into your buds from ambient humidity. Plus, any residues will still be there when you harvest.
Yep, that PDF link is the type of solid, factual info growers should seek, but most take the popular route resulting in the blind leading the blind. The subject heading of this thread is a turn-off for me.
If your growing pine trees and landscaping shrubs.
I might have to pickup a bottle of this,
is a must!!!!!!!1
Yep, it's all relative. IOW, it's about about plant requirements, nutritional needs, dependent on growth rate. A grower's first focus should be on providing nutrients to the root system, as nature intended it to be.
No, I don't suffer fools lightly. Check out the YouTube a member posted, it hits "popular" thought right between the eyes LOL. https://www.rollitup.org/advanced-marijuana-cultivation/267989-uncle-bens-gardening-tweeks-pointers-39.html
Sorry, but 1/8 strength will have no affect, one way or the other, especially if you're using typical (watered down) "cannabis specific" nutes. Even if you have a high analysis food, say a 20-20-20, you still need at least 1/2 teaspoon per gallon to have any effect and even then, if you did catch the stomata as being receptive and such, the affect will be short lived compared to proper nutrition at the root zone. You're seeing what you expect to see and telling The Herd what you think they want to hear, not necessarily a direct affect of your actions.
You're just wrong. That's it. Plain & simple. The mix I used ended up coming to a little over 200 ppm. But you didn't even ask. Nor do you have a clue as to what nutes I'm using. Instead you quickly disreguard my findings as placebo. Guess what? I don't care. You're not gonna be convinced, because you see yourself as expert. And you may be. I am the last thing from an expert, as I am on my first grow. But what I am is observant. And I don't need to be told what I did or didn't see with my own 2 eyes. Keep telling people it's a load of crap though. There's a place for everyone here.
