A lot of what Ed Rosenthal and the other famous marijuana cultivation writers won't tell you is their results are subjective. Meaning, having your grow operation running off of their do's and don'ts won't ever yield the same results as they got. I think the biggest problem is people have trouble understanding this, and this is where we see arguments. "But Jorge Cervantes says XXXX", "Well that's bullshit because Ed Rosenthal says XXXX" , "You're all wrong because this guy says XXXXX".. Do you see what I'm saying? These books are meant as a basis to learn from, not to emulate entirely. Take what these guys have to say with a grain of salt unless it's hardcore scientific evidence. YES, they have been growing dope for a very long time. YES they're very successful. But what they won't show you is the actual grit behind what they write in books. They didn't have someone writing books every other day so they could grow pot, they figured it out themselves. Just like we should be doing ; looking at the scientific facts and applying that to our grow.
