I'm starting a new line of deodorant for stinky plants. Not sure what Ima call it yet. Was toying with HogSpice. What do you think? Sound like a winner?
Scientific research showed that plants not only emit chemicals under stress, but specific chemicals can be discharged in response to specific stresses. When attacked by threat "A", they can emit a chemical that attracts a predator of threat "A" in response.

Laugh all you want about the "happy plants don't stink" statement, but science has shown there could very well be some merit to this belief.

ur preachin to the choir bud. Plants also emit chemical odors when stressed that attract insects. Like scale and mites. I've known that. However what he was talking about is something different. cannabis when grown in moist fertile well drained soil in perfect conditions just smells like cannabis. I grow great buds that smell wonderful. I like the citrus scent of Pineapple Express. And the wreak of Jack the Ripper. he was saying the odor is because the plants are grown wrong. I'm not buying it. Ppl love th smell of buds. Can u imagine cannabis without an aroma? I don't wanna smoke if I can't smell that beautiful dank smell. And I wouldn't wanna grow either.

Wow! Things really decomposed quickly here! Sad! All the way to the top, too!

Is it that hard to be able to retain a level of "openness of the mind"?

Unfortunately, only a few could handle that.

I can't speak for everyone but I'm pretty open minded. But there is so much crap in this thread its hard not to speak openly about it. Or would u prefer ppl bite their tongues when BS is flying everywhere? And don't be so snooty.

No, just act like adults and understand this is just an opinion, like yours, right? Is it more productive to react with personal bashes and childish behavior?

It's not snooty, just trying to have some empathy.

Now see that's where ur wrong I never post opinions in newbie central. I post what I know. And I usually present a valid point backed up with references so that u can read for yourself and form ur own conclusions. Hog just spews controversial ideas backed by nothing and insults members who are just trying to understand. And he'll say "well read all my old threads and btw hundreds of people are already doing it my way."
I'm just as empathetic as the next guy but when it comes to science, and Botony is a science, I always maintain...Show me the data.
Look this site has thousands of members. His has idk, mb dozens. So why would he come here at all if not for the numbers? He said he was here to help people but I think he was here to help himself. And isn't it a coincidense he has a book coming out? It's obvious why he came, even if it's only obvious to me. This thread lacks pith. It isn't even about growing it's about a personality. He should have posted it in TNT.
