I could not help myself. Let me be as clear about this as possible, NOTHING AND I DO MEAN NOTHING will short cut time spent doing the work or gaining experience keeping your plants as healthy as possible. IMO these are the only true keys to open magic doors.
That said, investing the time and experience to know what the best gear is (for a specific applications) and then keeping everything organic as possible will usually always produce the best results. None of which can be figured out or really. learned w/o many years of hands on experience and or lots of help from true highly skilled professionals.
Look at alcohol and especially wine for an example. Most people would never be foolish enough to try to short cut learning how to make a really good wine. Nor would they be (usually) be foolish enough to think that they could simply pay for that knowledge with (magic seeds) It takes good old fashioned hard work, dedication, combined with decades of hands on full time experience to produce the best results. It's taken most gifted growers that I know including myself, decades to (really) learn the basics. At some point around the the second decade I thought I was a decent breeder/grower. I then woke up, and started really understanding just how much more there really is to know.
The old man drilled these two things into my hard early on.
"Give up on secrete shortcuts or buying experience, your time is always better spent on hard work and hands on experince"
This one is still my favorite!
