And u think its extremely weird someone grows it but doesn't smoke it. Your another poser with 0 real passion

Who is this even directed at? What does it even mean?

 

[gbis59ll]

The op said he doesn't even smoke

 

[Mrs. Weedstein]

The op said he doesn't even smoke

So what? He can still enjoy growing the plant. I don’t smoke very often but enjoy breeding and giving it away. Why is this worth attacking someone over? How is he posing when he openly says he doesn’t smoke?

That old man Rick Simpson didn’t smoke really and he grew fields to make oil and give it all away to medical patients. He’s the worst poser

I’m definitely not a poser, what would I be posing to do? Smoke weed? Obviously I freely Admitted I don’t so your premise is dumb but maybe that’s because you smoke weed? Anyway, there is definitely a perspective I lack Because I don’t smoke which is why I’m on here. I’ve invested tens of thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours trying to get up to speed all for the satisfaction of growing the best flower I can. Why? I like The challenge and I like Helping people that need my weed...Next Question. I’ll bet you’re a millennial from Seattle?

Thank you for the support and very well said I might add! Bet you anything he’s from Seattle. Seattle has more haters than anywhere in the world - hands down. Anyway, thanks again. = )

Lame.

We usually defoliate throughout the grow to combat this to certain degree. You want to create an even canopy with many tops. To bring up the lower branches and side shoot we use nets, PGR's, hormones and supercropping techniques.

I always do partial harvest. I don't defoliate as aggressively as many others do. I cut down everything's mature and flower the rest for another 2-3 weeks. You don't harvest unripe tomatoes, Cannabis is not different in this regard.

Only time I defoliate aggressively is when I run scrog net. Cheers!

Thank you for taking the time to respond. When you have a plant that has been topped and technique’d to fit a scrog net, with 50 colas or whatever, do you have to feed it anymore to supply all those colas? Is there a ceiling on what could be possible if no limiting factors like time, space, etc.?

There's many factors regulating this. But overall a bigger plant need more nutrients to grow. But you also have to count in the method (hydro, soil etc) being used to know the feeding frequency.

In hydro for example you may not need to go as high as in containers because your constantly feeding the plant in a homogenous environment with nutrients, water and oxygen constantly being replenished.

Then you have phytohormones like Triacontanol. The nutrient requirements decrease about 20% with the use of TRIA because of its ability to speed up nitrogen retention, metabolism, photosynthesis and photothropism.

Then you have "descaler" agents like drip clean from house&garden and surfactants like Pro-tekt (potassium silicate) which also make the nutrients more available in the solution.
