I never said all the information in the book was his, I said he's the author of it. An author is - somebody who compiles either his own story and account or uses other's stories. The first couple pages of the book accredit respect and the ideas to the people he acquired them from I think it is two pages of names. I never said all of the information in the book was his, I said he was the author of the book. When a book comes into circulation, usually there is an author behind it. Usually, the author, if it is a journal of other people's work, would have to accredit the people who he acquires the information from. IT doesn't say on those pages, "I got this information from this person", so how could I properly accredit credit where it is due? Now, because y'all were proven wrong on the issues I was referring to, you have to pull out some pathetic attempt at making me look like a "smart ass"??? The only people looking like smartasses are yourselves. . . Really. Y'all really need to grow up and use some common sense. You guys take things so personally, all of you, and you let your immatured ego's get in the way of common sense and being able to compromise what is important and what is the topic of discussion. Now, because you see your arguement lacked certain validity, we pull in, "He didn't write that book", etc, etc. Well, yes, he did, he is the author of it, no, not all of the information is his own, and yes, as any AUTHOR does, he accredited credit where it was due - even to you UB, in this age in time it is common sense that nobody can write a book on any topic without the ideas within the novel being somebody else's. . . Are you kidding me that this is the childish argument you have now pursued?
I never once argued about the significance of root mass and vigor, I also commented on this importance. You can refer to both the MJ Insiders, and Medical Bible (
As I stated I have a library of novels, I was simply referring to the simplest and most basic of the books - Jorges Cervantes' medical Bible - though you will continue to find an arguement in anything and everything I say and say there are more basic novels than that, and again I would agree and again nor was that the point I was making) and you will also find information in both about the significance of oxygen uptake on the roots. By increasing the oxygen flow to the roots and the amount of oxygen uptake by the roots you can also effectively nearly or more than double production (Depending on techniques, nutrients, plants size (By plant size I mean leaves and roots and everything in-between). Hence, why aeration has become so popular in recent years. I never said anything about plants needing "electrolytes, hormones, or enzymes either", although, yes they need hormones, electrolytes and enzymes. If it were not for hormones within the plant, the plant would not grow roots, or leaves seperately, it would be either a mass of leaves and stem or a ball of roots, but you need one to have the other, and hormones regulate this. Enzymes are crucial in the breaking down and absorption of energy and nutrients VIA the roots (As they produce certain chemical changes in organic substances by catalytic action resulting in the decomposition and conversion of nutrients for their uptake into the plant). Also, just like the other two, without electrolytes, life would cease to exist as they are any of certain inorganic compounds, mainly sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, (Potassium and magnesium we feed to the plants to encourage rapid and healthy growth - do we not???) chloride, and bicarbonate, that dissociate in biological fluids into ions capable of conducting electrical currents and constituting a major force in controlling fluid balance within a living organism (Plant or animal).
I don't know how we could grow a plant without electrolytes as they are responsible for the distribution of nutrients throughout the plant, and by distributing them throughout the plant where they are needed, the plants grow IE Magnesium, Potassium, Calcium, etc.
I don't know how we could grow a plant without enzymes as they are responsible for the uptake of nutrients INTO the plant so that the electrolytes can move them around throughout the plant where the HORMONES tell the plant the nutrients (Absorbed as a result of enzymes) where they are needed.
I don't know how we could grow a plant without hormones, as the plant wouldn't grow, because it wouldn't think it needed to!
Hormones tell the plant where nutrients are needed! The Electrolytes are the driving force or energy which circulates the nutrients throughout the plant. The enzymes are responsible and accredited to the uptake of nutrients through the roots!!! Holy crap people, these are fundamentals once again! Grade 6 science for Pete's Sake!
Without OUTSIDE enzymes, electrolytes, and hormones, the plant would not be able to create its own and would not grow and would cease to exist. This is why you FEED your plants A and B nutes when growing hydroponicly, this is why you grow your plants in soil instead of in plain hydroton rocks or rockwool cubes, because without those OUTSIDE enzymes, electrolytes and hormones, the plant cannot create enzymes, cannot create electrolytes and cannot create hormones. It's all interconnected, I don't see your logic in the matter.
You try growing a plant in a pillowcase without watering it or giving it nutrients and fertilizers and tell me how that goes. What do fertilizers provide? N-P-K, The three fundamental building bones of electrolytes, therefor hormones, and coincidentally, therefor enzymes.

WHAT the hell does that have to do with ANYTHING?!? His book is a GUIDE, not a reflection of your life FFS, grow up brotha. . . Seriously!
He doesn't know you, so he doesn't know anything about your closet in your house and how much you made and can use towards your illegal grow operation. That isn't the point of the book either. The purpose of the book is to be an amature grower's guide on the most simplistic and basic of principles in regards to growing medical grade marijuana so that you can come up with your own ideas on how to spend your money and how to use your closet for your illegal or legal grow operations. Let's grow up a little and think about things before we say them. . . PLEASE, ALL OF YOU!
For fuck sake, before I ever bother to respond on this thread again, I am going to have to sit here and read, then re-read, and super extra re-read my posts to make sure there is no slight way in which my opinion can be manipulated and misconstrued. We were talking about lifting roots out of the ground, now you are talking about "

C'mon guys, for those of us who completed high school, high school died years ago, as did it's drama and character.
"We're all dreamers, and conmen fulfill that dream." and that is why I tried to mellow the mood earlier and present some logical and scientifically reinforced information to help the rest of us that are the same, however there is little appreciation for this "We're all dreamers, and conmen fulfill that dream" on this thread. It's "I am the dream maker, and I am the only one that can fulfill that dream". . . . apparently. . .
Ben, i wanted to ask tho, if you frequented icmag or not, have you heard of the defoliation method for cannabis?
