No, but people like you do continually attempt to spin what we say into having a different meaning so you can make false claims like you just above.
Certain things about plants are facts, scientifically proven facts, period, three end. Just like gravity has not ceased to be a fact just because it was not thought up in some guy's basement last week, scientifically proven facts about plants remain just that, scientifically proven facts.
It is the ignorance of many growers and their desperation for 'more and better' that causes them to be susceptible to every wacko voodoo growing method or claim that comes down the pike.
Do you honestly believe that just because someone attempt something different in their closet grow or PC case grow or basement or attic grow that suddenly plants that have had thousands and thousands and thousands of years of evolution and genetic coding that tells them to release certain hormones at certain times in certain locations in certain amounts in response to some certain event or stage of growth will not do it or will do it totally different because some little clown shoe playing mad Dr. Ganjastein thinks he can make them do it different, or more accurately doesn't even have the slightest clue of what happens and just takes a shot in the dark not knowing what to expect and has no idea whatsoever of what sort of reaction plants will have to their insanity?
Some plant facts were discovered 100 years ago or more and no matter how many times they have been tested by more up to date modern high tech equipment the proven facts remained precisely that, facts. Do you really think that someone piddling around in a greenhouse or in their backyard or basement will come up with something totally new and different to try that not so much as one single horticulturalist ever thought to attempt over the many, many, MANY decades that plants have nee scientifically researched, and even is someone piddling around in their basement or closet did by sheer luck stumble across something different to try that they would possess the needed high tech equipment to prove their lucky finding to be fact, and of course that their piddling around would have been performed under highly controlled conditions and there would be multiple test groups run to make the needed comparisons that the needed equipment to prove actual proof would need to also test to prove what the guy piddling around thought he might have stumbled across?
Through ignorance, lack of actual education in botanical matters, many growers want and need to believe that cannabis plants are different, that because they produce cannabinoids that they are not like other plants and that proven scientific facts to not pertain to them or that because at least some of the facts were proven way back well before their grandparents were born that they no longer apply, that they are no longer valid. that the facts have gone beyond their expiration date.
Those same people might as well go to the nearest cliff or tall building and leap off and expect to float or be able to fly thinking that because gravity is not some new discovery that it can no longer apply in the modern world of 2011.
Are cannabis plants 100% fully understood? No. Thanks to the limitations of scientific research some things about cannabis are still mysteries. But they are things like exactly how many cannabinoids and terpenoids and flavonoids there are and the same with monoterpenoids (C10H16) and monoterpenoids (C10H180) andmonoterpene phenols (C10H14O) and sesquiterpenoids (C15H24) and aliphatic esters and hetero compounds and phenylpropanes and aromatic acids and misc compounds in cannabis plants and are there still more that have not yet been discovered and what all their functions are and how they interact with each other. No little clown shoe with a garage grow will ever unravel those remaining mysteries.
But things like Uncle Ben and I write about are not such things, they are things that have long been known to be rock solid scientifically proven facts that have been tested and retested far more than enough times to have been proven to be every bit as factual as the existence of gravity.
It is the combination of ignorance, arrogance, desperation and gullibility that causes many growers to believe that they have or can or will discover something that near countless PhD's who specialized in or currently specialize in horticultural science and who spent, or are spending, their entire lives scientifically researching plants, including some who specialize in the scientific research of cannabis plants, that they will discover what the scientists have missed or have gotten wrong and that the closet grower will be the first to discover something and then prove it beyond any doubt to be factual.
Again, those very same people might just as well doubt and refuse to accept the existence of gravity and leap off a tall cliff or tall building and expect to float or fly. Their odds of successfully doing so are equal to that of disproving the facts that Uncle Ben, or at times myself, write about.
Like it or not, accept it or not, it is as much of a fact as the existence of gravity being a fact.
