CANNARADO
if you could tell me what range i can successfully grow quality cannabis, then i shall abandon my endeavors and waste no more of your time.
Not my time your wasting... im sitting here cutting down another one of my plants while smoking on a previous one. Im not ignorant enough to listen to your shenanigans.
Its been awhile since getting this worked up - theres more to it then what you see on the surface aswell. This is just so absurd because we go threw this every week at the shroomery! Its the exact same story... "Why are you against my trial and error?" And its not we're against it - Challenge it all you want. But when theres a line of people that will tell you the exact same thing "Yes it works, but stupid"... then obv its been done. Move on. With mushrooms its 100times worse cause most everything in that field is LONG WELL known information.
The limits are endless. You'd have to test every strain. What i can tell you is...
It will grow on the frozen tundra (My high school buddy grew outdoor in alaska), it will grow in the sandy sun beaten 100+ degree ground and baking sun of Iraq. It will grow under heavy winds from wyoming, thin air of colorado. Super humidity of Maine, and not so humid nebraska. It can grow under incandescence, it can grow with the brightest source of light - the sun. It can grow in swamps of Mississippi. Hemp/cannabis is a super strong plant. It is found everywhere growing under literally every condition under the sun. Sometimes it survives, sometimes it doesnt. Depends on the strain you're using. Some strains wont do crap outdoors cause their bred for indoors. Some do good with UVB some dont. But what the point is, is that we know when its "OK" for a plants conditions. Thats just mostly the outdoor parameters. Come inside and what you've done is introduced a whole new slue of pathogens that can be bad... but obv plants can take it well but only when giving it good conditions. When giving it conditions like you, as soon as you get root rot, it will thrive and you may or may not be able to catch it in time. We cant all always be giving them optimal conditions; but isnt what we're trying to do is get the best? Some of us also have lives and cant hope and prey we dont catch root rot cause we wont be there to rid it fast enough.
Maybe i take it personal cause i do look at this as Medicine. I know a few people that would kill themselfs if they didnt have pot. Had fibermyalgia, but the meds made even just moving joints and such so painful it was pointless. Smoked a joint, wanted to run marathons! Was in an accident and cant move his arm to even light a pipe, has to pre-light a blunt/joint and smoke that way if he's alone. If you were pulling this over at GlaxoSmithKline (xanex) you would be fired! "Well, this formula works... kinda sucks, but its ok". No. Thats not how that works.
And even if you were trying to show "the extremes that pot can grow under" you'd again want to be using different strains, under EVERY condition possible. The conditions in your grow apparatus is much better then your are ASSUMING (You have done little to no tests on water content and D/O, ect. How can you say you have very little D/O and that you dont have trace elements of root rot already?
Your improperly testing what science has confirmed for years, and then passing assumptions on as facts. You've proved nothing because i watch people try and grow under worse conditions then your's (Spiter mites, 93 degree temps, RDWC, 5 gal buckets, no measuring nutes, only half had air stones) and still turn out bud... but who's gonna smoke it? Instead of trying to find out whats 'OK' to grow in, lets start questions how to create better bud. The government thinks we have "Psychoactive" weed now and its something to fear... lets work on making that way so they do have something to be scared of; And those who use as medication wont have to keep buying crappy pot at good pot prices because people are more worried about "ok" weed rather then "good".
If you want to make this worth anything - Do actual scientific process. Gather materials, create your constant. Take notes, LOTS of notes. run your constant while running clones at different bad conditions. Only one condition at a time, and then you can move on to several bad conditions. And dont just do like warm water, set an aquarium heater in that tub and run it full blast... see what happens. Take and grow not only alge, but any other water bound bacterias you can get your hands on? Ever thought about what introduction of a plant with root rot into a good RDWC environment would do? Could it clean it up or will it just infect the rest? Something like that would be worth the time. Find out ways to rid root rot, not how to get it... going about it backwards bro. Then when you want to post findings, have more then just a few current pics and whats been going on over the week. Run this project for a year, study your findings, make a write up about it and post all that. You're findings will be "While root rot occurs at random, when given better conditions the weed reacted better and the product was of quality."
Im getting worked up about this now, and its just not worth it. I just want to make sure any new growers that read threw this understand how passionate i about about going against what your saying. You end up spending way more time and way more money cutting corners then if you just did it right then first time. I promise you... after trying to cheap out on my grow 3 times, i bucked up and dumped over $2000 for just a 400w set up - but my one harvest with crap bagseed has cranked out more then all three other grows combined...
I re-iterate with the fact that i grow mushrooms too... trying to cut corners and cheap out leads to great failure! You can search all over the shroomery about people cutting corners once, getting lucky. Then from there out nothing but failure. Anything can happen once.
Seacrest; out.
