Thanks alot in still learning but I will try to throw out some knowledge when I can because sharing is better than not and with time I guarantee the active ,passionate,and hungry grower ,grows the smoke a step above the rest .
Definitely some great growers on here ,I really enjoy checking out your thread hecno ,raw organics is one of my favorite things,if I had a lil piece of land instead of a trailer park I would definitely do some composting and worm farming ,and building some soils ,that stuff is awesome an you're plants show it ,I really like the banana peal composting ,I bet that kicks off the flowering mega lots of calcium in that .So true guys , Dank and some others have the knowledge that we can all learn from , We just have to take notice and read in between the lines and as you say Stinky - Start at the beginning - I am .
You throw a ton of knowledge out all the time. Your post earlier about a plants typical structure had me looking and scratching my head. It had leafs, stems, was green, so my ass is looking closer at what i see and grow. Im grateful for your time and sharing.
Any time,I look at the structure carefully to Identify pheno types or characteristics of the plant,it helps in so many ways if you know what direction a plants DNA is leaning on ,different characteristics and different feeding requirements,heat ,humidity,light ,nutrient needs can all be calculated,simple terms different plant ,different requirements.I also plan on breeding for medical purposes and I need to know the growth patterns of quite a few strains,research to me is fun .
I use a wide range of breeders but grow the majority of the same genetics ,I'm a afghani,skunk ,kush ,diesel,sort of grower ,so seeing and pinpointing those genetics isn't to hard ,I have yet to grow a fast buds strain but I got a few seeds a friend gave me so I might as well start one when my taison autos are done ,I have seen a lot of good reviews on there gear .An yes when I know from experience a plant likes more n or calcium or mg I add a lil extra to the soil ,or I calculate a tea with more of desired nutrient ,sometimes I've had to mix up 3 different teas for plants all having a different need,but most times its s simple fix like just diluting one with water ,for example when I mixed soil for the blue berry I started for mom I didn't add as many worm castings and none of my complete fertilizer of kelp ,cotton seed ,seabird guauno ECT ,because I know from experience she likes a light mix ,blue berry doesn't need a lot to get going.I also study what I find out about the strains parent strains helps me understand the strain better for instance a good understanding of Columbian gold ,Acapulco gold and afghani make skunk#1knowing the flavor ,growth patterns smells of any of those strains will help you understand the skunk because In the skunks lineage she shows a lil of some and a lot of others,these expressions come our at different times and soil ,environment,play a role in the expression of pheno types for example I have grown skunk#1that was indica dominate showing more of the afghani heritage smeling skunky not sweet but also have gotten pheno types of sativa more fruity less skunk and more of an upbeat high .dank mate , I am just starting to understand what you have out lined , I am seeing it on my grow now . Which means I have to understand about the different pheno types . So would I be right in thinking I am better off sticking with one breeder which I am doing now [ Fast Buds ] Till I learn how to deal with the difference .Now the way I see it , you would look for the dominate characteristics of the genetics of the plant . which dealing with -- Raw Organics -- Love that word . How would you target there feeding . Or would the plant take what it needs from a well balanced soil no mater what , Also is that something you look for if you want to breed , ---- Which I have no time for --- 60 hour work week is long enough .
which I will get through eventually. LoL
