hey, diesel, i have a coco grower, lookin for a mentor, if u come across any? i have him in pvt convo so i remember where to find him. ty for the space, mosh.
I think I’m done with marijuana specific ferts! I’m going back to basic gardening days in my back yard! Lolunless the bottle says otherwise, I'm still fine tuning when to add my booster du jour, but i wait til outta transition and into hardcore, to add boosters. course i tip toe, around with that stuff, rotating pots, changing tanks n putting in new clones, with- whatever i must (also y the 400ppm lows, so often), really. stage n basic structure plays more of a role, for me, but easy on the boost, like many feed bottle instructions- "less", is often, more/enough...
ATA boy!!! I would suggest dry ferts also much cheaper and work well. I mean almost all ferts will work well it just the learning curve of each one. There is no magic in a bottle or bag for that matter.I think I’m done with marijuana specific ferts! I’m going back to basic gardening days in my back yard! Lol
If I do anything g it will be a single entire cycle mixture.
we're going to have A TALK, when my big bottles of trio, run out.While we on the topic of nutrients personally I would lean towards more organics where possible and approach it as feeding soil not the plants.... But going that route can be very challenging when learning. I just feel the diversity of microbes makes a huge difference in plant health quality if done right. I don't feel salt based is chemical or leaves a chemical taste I think that's bs but I do feel the diversity of microbes play a role in changing the terpene and flavonoids.... Most say for the better.

fellas, i think mosh's combo of stalkers can help this fella... again, it's beyond my scope.
2nd indoor grow having problems
I have 4 plants. 3 Cali Haze in one Juicy Fruit. I had been growing from seedlings with the M3 Michigan made mix. I transferred from that to Mother Earth Coco coir 70/30. I have been using foxfarm Trio. Started at quarter strength and did one dose of half strength over a week and two days time...www.thcfarmer.com
o wait- can i use links, here?
I agree with you... Current culture has made everything to easy and several don't even try to learn the basics. I remember as a kid doing homework and would ask my mom what a word means or how to spell it... Her immediate response everytime was go look it up and point to the dictionary and encyclopedias.Doesnt anyone read any books before taking on a new hobby? How many mistakes can one make? Guess every one with no knowledge.
You know we cant turn that around. These help threads are getting worse all the time. You would think with “legal weed” people would have the info they need. They do. They just dont read anymore.
Sorry rant over. I dont want to be directed to help threads anymore. I have been trying to help someone for weeks and only now i find out that the source water is like .6 ec.
I have always said this and avoided them for years while learning myself. The forums are a bad place for a beginner. Books are where they belong.

Now Google and your done you get your answer and lose out on the rest of the info. And a lot of time it's the wrong answer. Books are a far more reliable source of info but takes work and time to read... Not consistent with how most seek info in today's time.
You know I feel the same way i find info in studies, research papers etc etc. Reputable sources are important. Then you need to take and put the pieces from several different sources to fully understand. That where all the weed info sites all over misinterpret information. Also how a lot of idiotic myths start. I learn everyday but feel you have to know the basics in order to tell the difference between BS and truth because this world is full of bullshit. I'm no expert and make a good amount of mistakes and misinterpret my share of info. But that's also an important part of learning.Yup. I looked to the encyclopedia Britannica any time i wanted to know anything. In addition to the dictionary and thesaurus.
Now i just search. But i only go with very reputable info.
Even when i see a problem in a thread. I do a search and find the answer right away usually.
I have learned to read and process info very quickly. Thats from book learning.
My computer phd having genius iq mother used to tell me. School as a kid was really to teach us how to learn so we could further our education. I really get what she meant now.
i agree with all of the above my current "collection" of many times read over- books, r on loan, along with about 2k in gear i wasn't comfy advertising to unload (storage that doesn't pay the 'rent', is less than worthless...). ummm... i agree, 100%.
i used to put the bible, the new, basically bible... Ed's taffy cover, book, a book, laoded with pics about cannabis, diagnostics/issues... another about the limiting factors, of whatever and yes, it's a bummer, to c a first time grower, askin for our/your hard learned and expensively learned, knowledge... but wat if mosh, is the guy who comes up with the next cure for whatever and the only thing, holding him back, is 10 seasons of knowledge u and i now, take for granted, NOW? something as simple to u, as reminding mosh, it's Saturday.
mosh is on what? his second grow? his attitude and ability to weigh, conflicting advice and hiz friggin instincts... tolerance, patience and openness to advice n new ideas... he's already one of the best growers, i know. I'm not talkin bout his bporn. I'm talkin bout the whole shingamabing and his potential. and YOU, SIR, helped him get there.
all i can say is- 3mo ago, i weighed significantly more... was horizontal, 22hrs a day, +... and if mr Simpson, hadn't been who he is and WHO YOU, SIR, have already shown urself to b... ur here, aren't u?... givin moshmeister, advice? great advice...
i just couldn't b the "richard jr", who had a miracle happen to him and said, NOTHING. and even though u and i tend to b at odds- i wouldn't wish u to leave. i think your knowledge base and experience is sound... i think ur heart, is in the right place... EVERYONE gets rubbed wrong, from time to time. and EVERYONE, has bad days. i hope u stay. i see u helping people. it is frustrating and not just for u.
of course, common sense tells us, first questions should b, what's your motivation? 2. how much u got in the bank? 3. don't kid yourself 4. ph, rh, temp, ppm? distance to lights? medium? etc...
i think diesel, uses a form letter, to ameliorate his aggravation and we should all, copy it... i forgot to...
i just hate to see u go silent and pray, it's a rough day, ONLY and that we see each other, again.
i just feel the need to pay things fwd, to my own, financial devastation. i would not b here, tomorrow, if i hadn't been struck by lightning, rso, oil and people, like u, mosh, aqua and mosh's following... so... um there's my rant, u knew, was comin, sir.
I have actually been researching google and I’ll tell ya today almost all responseses are paid for! They may seem free but really not ! Google doesn’t give a shit if accurate just that it’s paid for.I agree with you... Current culture has made everything to easy and several don't even try to learn the basics. I remember as a kid doing homework and would ask my mom what a word means or how to spell it... Her immediate response everytime was go look it up and point to the dictionary and encyclopedias.

Your mother was intelligent woman. When I hire someone and they have a 4-year degree I don’t hire them because of the particular major. I hire because I know they are cable of learning and not afraid of commitment!Yup. I looked to the encyclopedia Britannica any time i wanted to know anything. In addition to the dictionary and thesaurus.

the only thing kids are learning is how to live on a cell phone................................Common sense will take u along way! And provide the ability to self teach, unfortunately it is a skill we are not teaching are children anymore . Look in the stores moms handing the 2 year old a phone to keep em busy !
I wasnt talking about Mosh. He has shown knowledge and dedication. I love helping growers like that. Thats how we all were.
But the grow you linked just from the paragraph shown here is not knowledgeable or dedicated sounding. More frustrated with no knowledge.
And yeah. You are a good man. I expected your response. :-)
As everyone knows I’m sticking to easy indoor strains but I have a northern lite ladie that had just been difficult from day one! I think maybe I had some bone meal not get mixed proper or something ? As she has had nitrogen toxicity since she was born. Honestly surprised she is still alive. Man has a ton of bud sights ! Curious if she will finish ! Every time I run out of room I think about throwing her outside! Lol
