so as i was saying...
it's all bullshit. you have to do this and you have to do that. why are the seed banks doing such extensive breeding if we control the outcome? i think the more you try to help it along, the more you actually hurt it. maybe indoors things are slightly different. topping. that's about it. indoors you are limited on height and width, therefore topping and/or training a plant can help increase growth and yield. but other that that i feel all you need is to provide a comfortable environment and regular feedings of organic nutes. this plant has been here for a lot longer than we've been growing it. i think trying new things is fun. good to learn all we can. but when it comes down to it this plant has just a few basic needs. like we all say "it is just a weed". but we are fed all this bullshit. i blame hightimes for a lot of it. they are paid to advertise products. the more products that are sold the more money the companies have to spend on adds. notice they won't say add nitrogen. they always name a brand to use. they get us to think we will grow "Super Buds" with this crap. someone pointed out their prices index last night. i received the Oct hightimes about 10 days ago. the price index says prices dipped $32 from Sept. and slid to it's lowest point since July. WHAT THE FUCK???????? it's still August.
it's all bullshit. i have a lot more........
I actually have the possibility of starting the development of an AUTO-TOPPING strain, as two of my bagseed babies auto-topped themselves with NO damage and NO artifical topping, if one is male and one is female, within 1-2 years im homping to have a stable AUTO-TOPPING PHENOTYPE
and i already know this strain has a GREAT end product, as i get my seeds from a VERY consitent grower of mid, bag to bag the product is almost ALWAYS identical, which is why i chose this strain as i get seeds free and they are very disease resistent, my current crop actually made it through 3 weeks of 6.0 PH in SOIL with only yellowing a bit, and only i tiny bit of browning, and now that ive fixed the soil bounced back to a deep dark green within 4 days............and i agree, all the selective breeding and stuff seed banks do are BULLSHIT, you can turn schwag to GOLD with the right conditions in a single generation of plants
did i also mention i have yeilded 21 g's off a 17 inch plant using only outside dirt and wrm castings with dustilled water, NO NUTES AT ALL other than castings? i may have yeilded an whole ounce with nutrients, but it would have cisted me more for the nutes than that extra 7 g's is worth in my area.
Btw im in East, TN so our outdoor soil is actually very fertile....im not sure how well this would work elsewhere in the country/world xD
edit:: High times is a joke, i have known that for years, yet all the younger people around here seem to look at it likes its the freakin bible....it bothers me quite a bit
