Hey all
Just had a thought about an anaology I could use to highlight the issue of over and under feeding. A skill which takes some practice to get right.
So here is the overbearing or underbearing wife analogy.
The uncaring wife:
Say you have a man who works 12 hours a day 7 days a weak doing very hard manual labour. Ok? Now, say to start off with he won a hamper which is full of enough food to keep him in lunch for 3 weeks. Off he goes to work and sure enough there is enough tasty sanwiches in there to keep his hunger at bay for 3 weeks, then when that food is gone it's time for the Mrs to send him some pack lunches. Well, his Mrs prefers to play with her vag than cook or clean and she sends him off that first day with no hamper with a measley ham sandwich. Sure, it gets him through the morning, by lunch he is starving. The sandwich fills a hole and gets him through to dinner time at home, but dude is hungry. What do you know, the Mrs is still upstairs with her rabbit, and shes left him a stick of celery for dinner. Not good. The guy goes to bed hungry as a mofo. Next day, he goes off to work and finds not even a sandwich, what has that bitch gave him? A single cupcake. By 7pm the guy is doubled in 2 with hunger. Tonight the mrs has left him an apple for dinner. This goes on for weeks and eventually the guy has lost so much weight and muscle that he dies.
Think of this as being you , with your pot of soil which has prepacked nutrients for 3 weeks. The plant will look good for those weeks, maybe even a bit longer, but if you start to see the plant failing, especially during flower, try upping your food levels, and feeding schedule to see if that helps. Yellowing from the base is a sure sign you are being an uncaring wife. That plant is working 12 hour shifts, using a ton of energy converting light energy and packing on buds.
OK
Now lets look at the overbearing wife:
Same situation , guy works 12 hour shifts, wins a hamper at the Xmas party and has lunch sorted for 3 weeks. Only this time, his wife is one of those trailer park porkers. She means well, hearts in the right place, but damn, shes fat. Her kids are fat , so she wants to make her man fat too. She loves take away food, pizza etc. This time as well as being told the guy has to eat the hamper, the Mrs is sending him off to work with 12 inch pizzas as well, and dude HAS to eat them or she gets emotional and closes up her vag for about a month. The guy ends up vomiting every lunch time having to eat stuff from the hamper and eat a pizza, eventually after a while , he ends up with an extreme salt build up at the root zone, his tips burn and he suffers necrosis of the legs, arms and penis, the poor guy just won't yeild much more than an ounce after that..
So think of that as being you, with your bottle of advanced nutrients pouring them into a plant which shouldn't need fed for at least a month.. if your feeding when you maybe should be, your plant is overly green, spindly, clawing or failing to mature, your probably killing it with kindness.
