Despite the reiterations of red herrings, you seemed to miss the point. Scientific consensus can be bought, but the only currency it will accept is evidence. If someone wants to change things, this is the path they must take. Merely rejecting answers is not good enough, no matter how much you...

Thought i'd share this track from my partner in justice... A bin bag dress never looked so good.!

Hey guys, I am de-lurking to share this video made by my partner in justice. (aka the co-admin of I fucking hate pseudoscience) When she isn't busy getting her masters in cognitive anthropology or fighting pseudoscience, she makes music! I got to hang out with her for a few days last...

There are a couple of red flags here. "Natural" is a marketing term. It has no scientific significance when we are talking about chemicals. So right away the claim that purblack is the most "natural" source is just meaningless hype. The same thing goes for "superfood". It has no meaning...

I've have had that happen, and it is a common complaint with micropores. As it is now I use regular airstones and only have to change them about every 6 months, at which point is soak them in strong h2o2 and then boil them, and they're ready to go again. I only have to replace them if they...

I recently attended a b-day party where the cake, from Walmart, was half yellow and half chocolate. There was absolutely no difference in taste between the two. I have also noticed this about their deli meat. The turkey doesn't taste much different from the roast beef.

Ok awesome. Does this go away at some point or will my roots always have that now? In my experience it will diminish over time but the roots will always be a little stained in those spots.

The aim of this post is not to try to silence opposition to GE tech, but to stop allowing the uninformed to frame the issue. If real criticism is to be heard, and real progress made, then the elimination of red herrings is a must. In order to avoid setting up strawmen here, I’ve included...

I really wasn't disagreeing. Where the microbes come from is a matter of choice. If you get them from EWC alone, that's your prerogative. I've been saying for a long time that people shouldn't get hung up on exact amounts or exact brands. What's important is the method.

Looks like afterslime to me. Looks like your problem has been corrected.

A few thoughts... Cuttings have enough energy stored up to make plenty of roots. The idea that they need to soak up nutrients is myth and marketing. If you do want to feed cuttings a foliar spray is best. It's not unusual at all for clones to look worse before they look better, especially in...

To make good tea, microbes are needed. Where they come from is a matter of choice.

The only danger of adding too much mycogrow is that the microbe population may explode and outstrip the oxygen. If you get an earthy or shroomy smell from your tea it should be fine. If there is any sort of foul odor, start over.

You can use FP to feed the tea. The plants will still benefit from the substances but since it doesn't take as much to feed the tea it will be diluted. If you want to add it directly to the res you may want to add some bennies first, but in my experience, if you add it to well established...

Bubbles are not important for the short time plants are soaking in physan. Physan tends to produce foam and a bubble stone may make it overflow. I use about a 1/2 tablespoon of mycogrow for 3 gallons.

New DFD!!

In my experience since writing this thread, the biggest factor for bringing on slime for me is temperatures. If you already have an established consortium of bennies they will help guard against high res temps, but if you currently have slime you have to get your res temps down for them to have...
