Don't let it put you off. This is a great site full of great info and good growers..
Your clearly enthusiastic enough to learn what you need and intelligent enough to ignore the 8th grade shit.

Its actually a pretty good site and full of growers. Most sites are full of wannabe growers. We do debate and get a touch rude at times but thats what adults do. Its all good fun.
You can be dishing someone one day and agreeing with everything they say the next.
We all grow different but we all grow.
You will also come to realize that when some says defoliate, they generally dont actually mean it. They mean to trim not strip all the leaves off. When someone says they flush they generally (but not always) mean they water or lightly feed. Sometimes they may mean leach as well. Unfortunately stoner growing has not gone proper horticulture terms yet and this leads to pages of debate...for no reason.

There quite a few good growers on here.
Some of us bust each others balls.
There is also a long history that you don't understand. Old members that got banned keep starting new accounts and it makes a mess for all the new people to the site.
Stay away from the "toke and talk" and "politics" sections. That's where the arguing and misery hangs out.
Stick to grow areas and threads and those are pretty chill.
We all do things differently. We all want great bud.

I see where you are coming from here bro, ive had a run in or 2 with some of the elite growers here where i have weighed in on things i didnt know enough about to comment on being a noob first time grower myself. Lesson learnt. The elite can seem a little harsh on people giving bad advice and the more i thought about it the more i understood their point. They must come across bad advice daily to the point where ya gotta stop being nice about it and tell them they are talking shit lol. But dont let that stop you from seeking advice from the elites after all they are elites for a reason. Without the help of the elites and fellow noobs alike i wouldnt have the healthy mini forest i have now. Keep up the good work bro and happy growing.
Oh and to the point of the thread i havnt trimmed anything from my 6 plants. There are a few dying/dead leafs right down at the bottom of 1 of my plants due to a small oscelating fan blasting them at close range but they dont seem to be slowing or stunting the plant so i havnt removed them.

Thanks for the input bro and yeah the canna feeding schedule i downloaded said to use it for 1 week in the 4th week of flowering so at most watering every other day will get 3 or 4 feeds of the pk and continue with just the flores and booster till harvest.

if your not using a 1000 w light then also 1/2 the amount.
Something they dont tell anyone is schedules are based on 1k lights. They have to base them on something but it would be nice if they were upfront on that.

This was a great read, everyone rallied together to take out the bad guy who was trying to be your friend to fuck you. Maybe you got a bit pissed that you were taken for a ride, maybe a bit embarrassed it took you till page 4 to figure it out. After reading page 3 I went to page 4 wondering if you would figure it out and glad you did. Most of us go mental on this site from time to time, if you can survive riu long enough to separate who is who, you will be rewarded sticking around.
Fan leaves are golden to me, If I remove a lower branch from a plant, I try to cut off the branch and leave the fan leaf behind.
