Ditto. I learned (on the 3rd year) to fill a box and trim it in a couple of hours, not a barrow and be up half the night.

I discovered manipulation of the plants first leaves, the cotyledons, if you remove these a few weeks before they fall off on their own it can spur a growth spurt in many types of plants, including:leaf:.

Too good a thread not to stir the pot and bump this up 1+. Cheers.

Buying seeds is addictive theres always something new your gonna wanna run reguardless of how many seeds you always have, so make sure you have a seed hudget of at least 400 a month
I have more seeds than I know what to do with and not enough space to germinate grow and then keep the good ones...just lost an afgooey mother that was a keeper.
Great thread we have here.

That science is full of shit and can't quantify the most important aspects of nature. (if you think all ferts is equal you're taste buds don't work)

That most growers alive today are dipshits who grow for cool factor and cash flow (congrats loser you couldn't cut it elsewhere so you come to be king of the hippys rather than the loser yuppie you are)

Change of light spectrum during flush moves things along nicely.

Nutrients are pretty much nutrients, yeah there's tiny differences but nutes count for only a few percent of the variables, environment is wayyyyy more important to both quality and yield

UVb diodes are a waste of time, effort and more importantly a hell of a lot of money

Growings easy if you dial things in and stop messing about with it while its trying to do its stuff.

I've another thing i figured out that works before you start the grow but i dont want to be ripped apart on forums for it after being shredded face to face by folks that haven't tried it (and don't understand it)

Lastly, after reading through this section i learned that a lot of folks dont have a clue what advanced gardening or techniques are:peace:

I learned through experiments that you can use Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) (which can be done at home) to, with amazing accuracy and sensitivity, determine the cannabinoid profile of a plant when it is just a ~3 weeks old seedling. [Rollitup LINK]
This was a gamechanger -- there is no need to spend MONTHS growing and then flowering a plant to determine it's In other words, my results showed that you do not need to grow a plant to full maturity and flowering to determine questions like "does this have CBD?"

I also learned through experiments that you can use cheap methylated spirits instead of expensive pure ethanol for Beam's test to detect CBD.

Earliest though was when i learned how easy and affordable it was to make colloidal silver to then make feminised seeds. [Link]

I've learned to be loud and proud...I have had the DEA at my house before, and I have learned to ask for a subpoena first. I've learned to spend the money for a good lawyer, it pays in the end. I have learned that it's my medicine and the government can go screw themselves, stick up for yourself especially if you live in a MMJ state. I've learned to never carry my medicine in my car along the interstate, because state and federal police have road checks on them and will take your medicine if they see if along with any device that you have.
