OLD REVIEWS Sour 60 Super Sensitive Strain

[RollerofDoobs]

No one said you were "sucky" lol. They were just pointing out possible issues that could help you with your next grows. But do I understand you are upset that you feel like you wasted money. I think everyone has made their point in this thread Can we get this locked?

 

[iLuvIndica]

One thing i would like to point out before it gets locked. NOT ONE PERSON DENIED MY CLAIM THAT SOUR 60 IS SENSITIVE. In fact evryone has agreed to some point that yes they are sensitive so new growers be weary unless you have the right soil and setup and your confident about not killing them they are sensitive.

I'm not saying you dont have a point about certain strains being less friendly and having a brand new grower steer clear of some strain the first grow is a valid point but you have learnt more by actually living the issues you could if you have had a sensative paki like Andy said now do we band the paki ryder?

well put!!! you should have seen my first grow... did great the first 1.5 months... then in the last 1.5 i lost ph control and watched them degrade to "less than favorable" conditions..... but its the best way to learn... if you keep going you'll reach a point like me where you can glance and read what the plant is saying... sorry you had a rough 1st time experience... but stick around and we'll help you through!

i feel after reading this whole thread that iluvindica is probably feeling attacked guys. how bout we help a member out and back off for a little bit. let things cool over so that we don't discourage members here to keep posting.

I'm no moderator on this forum but i, as well as most here at AFN do like to see peace and good vibes. Tones can be so hard to read sometimes via internet and everyone interprets how things are said differently depending on a lot of things.

keep on sharing your experiences with us iluvindica, I'm sure there are a lot of newbies lurking and not posting taking note of what you said while placing their first order of seeds right now! Just remember, each person is going to have a different experience 1st run or not. don't be afraid to keep sharing yours...

If you can grow your own vegtable garden you can certainly grow autos.

Let me tell you about my stuped mistake I masde one year. I am a cheapskate cerfified.

To save a few bucks I went to the local seed, seed and fertilizer farm supply. They told me they had a couple of bags of fertilizer where the bags were a bit ripped and asked if I wanted them for a dollar each. Why yes I said. I took the bags home and carefully measured out a coffee can full and poured a can around each of my plants.

the next day all my plants were limp. I carefully read the bag of fertilizer and noticed the initials BLWK. I went back to the seed store and asked what the initials meant. The store clerk said "Why that is broad leaf weed killer. Of course all my plants died. To this day I have never heard of anyone doing something this stupid.

When you are down on yourself just remember Nelson and you will smile and say at least I have not done aything that stupid.

yup makes me not even wanna share my expreiences if evryone is gonna tell me how sucky a new grower i am. i never grew out mj ever and considering my situation autos seemed more of an obvious choice. Im a noob grower period photoperiod or autos the first mj i grew is a bagseed i have going right now my first autos are in my sig also. Literally a virgin when it comes to growing considering people jumpi in this with a lot less research and supplies and have gotten good results. My advice was taken from mods of this site not naming names but seriously o well. so yea if your like me who sees autos as a better choice but never grew out mj ever i dont know what to tell you dont grow autos? they are all too sensitve? thanks for the input guess i shouldnt try growing autos until i grew photos for a few years?? ...

thats a good 1 Nelson...
i had a beautiful bunch of special f1 + f2 beans going great in a DWC setup
but my grow was set up in a spare bedroom closet
i had company for a week,bieng introduced to a new grandson
well the power to the grow was switched on and off by a switch
outside the closet door.the closet door was closed,there was a babybed up against the door.
anyway 1 of my guests apparently switched the light switch off,( i think it was off the entire 4 day visit)
needless to say,no lights,no fans and no air pumps in DWC is a disaster
that was my last attempt at DWC...

A friend of mine wanted me to buy him some big yielders to replace his pineapple express. I bought him some chronic pure ak and grape fruit (all hardy strains) and some seedling compost but he knew best he started them off in wickes compost as his pineapple express did ok in it never the less to say they what did not die where so badly stunted they where not worth the bulb time writing 3 strains off never mind one lol

My first attempt at DWC i actually starved/stunted my cuttings to close to death with to little nutrient as i was scared to feed as i was told its far to easy to overfeed than underfeed.

I did my frist Three grows with ph 8.5 tap water hahaha

Not THAT is dumb.

If it's got wheels, wires, valves, motors or relays I'm pretty good.
If it's a living, breathing thing, I'm fucked!

Stick at it mate we will get there in the end

Gee you could bottle that waer and sell it as pH up/

Okay, I just read through the whole thread...

1) iLI, I believe you have the wrong impression about the purpose of flushing... We do a flush, generally when the ph is locking out the nutes. A normal flush (2-3x mix amount) is not going to make a fresh, hot mix "not hot".

2) I would like to be given 1 (one) single example of an experienced, seasoned grower that recommends starting seedlings in OF. I do not know of any. I have seen quite a few of our members mention they do this, but not a single one of them I have seen, has gotten beyond the "experimenting" phase of their grow careers. I know you have heard many members claim that OF is safe for seedlings. This may be a good lesson on being careful whose advice we heed.

iLI, I will be happy to discuss in private... The emotional fervor of this thread has already gone beyond acceptable levels. Other than that, it's all good. bro.

You should know from experience, there are people willing and available to you, that you can validate conflicts you get in information. One mistake I see first timers make is, when there is a conflict of information, they pick the one they like best, instead of going to someone who has a time-tested growing track record. I'm not proposing that I am such a person, but it's pretty easy to figure out who they are.

THIS IS A SUGGESTION TO ALL NEW GROWERS: When you ask for help in the public forum, you will get good advice and bad advice... When there is a conflict, and you're not sure which is correct, go to one of the mods, and ask them privately. You can go to the "Site News" forum to see who the designated mods are for the issue you are concerned with.
