That movie grates my eyes.


I enjoy the experience of the pioneer days. Pre internet. That dude in the video is either trying to sell you something. Or, has zero clue to what's going on. In (your) grow room.

Everyone is seeking direction. It's something you have to figure out yourself.

Try actual university agriculture extensions and the experiments and growing principles presented in their scientific papers. Be looking for doctoral thesis from recent grads. Universities are beginning to embrace the profit potential of weed. And I'm leery of anyone selling a product.

Get a botany textbook and plow through it, might be something you want to pursue further. Then read lots of research articles on topics that interest you. I've been reading a lot about the salicylic acid signaling network lately. I'm going to try to find the full text of this article I was just reading https://www.researchgate.net/publication/332513522_Evaluation_the_efficiency_of_chitosan_and_salicylic_acid_in_controlling_gray_mold_disease_caused_by_Botrytis_cinerea_on_eggplant. I've been using aspirin and chitosan together in a foliar spray, I think both are pretty underrated for their wide ranging effects on plants in general.

Thats interesting that you mentioned salicylic acid. Im in the process of removing a corn and noticed the removed had a bunch of that in it. Is that chemically related to aspirin as well?

Im thinking a botany textbook is where it is at if i want to get reliable info.

I feel the need to mention a product. I've been using it for years.

The original 3 part General Hydroponics.

The guys that sold out to Monsanto. Later bought by some other pecker heads.

It's excellent stuff. The basic three and Cali-Magic.

Aspirin is acetylsalicylic acid, ester of the phenolic hydroxyl with acetic acid.
Salicylic acid is used as a mild skin ulcerative agent.

I assume you have never dropped 2 325Mg tablets into each cell of a car battery at -10F.?? No cables needed. Redkneck science wins this one. And you can hardly find aspirin or non sealed batteries. Just more dangerous N saids as you described. May you never be stranded in winter.

Peace.

No scientist. Real world of the forest and tool shed. School library. No net or store newer than 50 years old within 150 miles. Necessity. The potential repurposing item we discard still gives me chills.
Nice attempt. Still love ya.
