Boiling roots is an old hippie myth that almost everyone stopped believing decades ago.

Your right, it is old. I first read about it back in the 70's and not sure but could have been the original grow bible. I had thought back then the theory was more to drive THC out of roots and into plant but that was a long time ago. And yes we'll see what happens I guess lol. A few more of these side by's may clear this up, but that's doubtful lol. Just for snickers I may dump a pail on one of my outdoor plants in the fall. No sense calling it a myth till I try it? Have you?

Why so much hate on this thread? I'm certain that Leonardo da Vinci and Nikola Tesla were referred to as "Goddamn dumbass" more often than they were by their first names. They didn't give a fuck they said "we're going to pour Mountain Dew down our fucking roots because nobody else ever has" all while wielding massive innovation boners. Stop with the negativity, and go back to watching videos of cats shitting on other cats on Youtube if you don't enjoy this type of thread.

Well I certainly would not let him pour the Dew on my girls but if he wanted to boil a few roots, have at it lol. The Dew thing is an ongoing joke here that could not possibly dew anything to help a plant, but again never tried it so ok just maybe lol. The boiling thing ..... Well that does have some validity re O2 deprivation I guess, we'll see
. And yes if someone wants to try something suggested here then perfect. Great way to seperate fact from fiction.

2 of these plants are shedding their leaves like crazy, I cut off the dead ones....going to harvest for sure by next weekend, or maybe a bit sooner
far left - normal nutes for now....will get the boiling water treatment
left middle - full nutes until harvest
right middle - this is the dewy gal...the colour is changing, as she's becoming a noticeably lighter shade of green
far right - traditional flush

This post wins the stupid award.
Just to clarify, he's saying that people who water their plants with boiling water and mountain dew are like Da Vinci and Tesla. (Try Picasso) I guess this thread is like the Mona Lisa then, right?

Actually I was making a joke and trolling retards like you who clearly take things entirely too seriously. Picasso mainly dealt with painting, sculpting, and various other artsy craftsy type shit, he was not an inventor, hence the references to people who tried things that seemed foolish at the time for the sake of obtaining new knowledge. Too, I'm not at all your friend as your picture would imply, and I highly doubt that you've ever felt like a genius.This post wins the stupid award.
