Quebec wants to ban homegrown, and yet...

he's correct..once they circle and are root bound you do damage to the root hairs..dry pot? best way to shock and kill..that's Grow 101 :lol:

According to the forum experts. Lol.

I learned how to grow from books, Greenhouse production guides and a lifelong breeder who was there to start medical Grows in Mendecino before 1996.

I also get to grow his personal genetics from back then and the amazing crosses he made with Motarebel stuff and Shantibaba.

I am getting up to 7 ounces of top shelf flowers per 30"x30" plant in a 2.5 gallon nursery pot of ocean forest. And I only add pure Blend Pro Grow in flower when needed.

My yield started to go up and deficiencies down when I learned to wait an additional day past the "forum 101" finger in the soil dry then water too soon instruction.

Wait an extra day if you grow in potting mix and watch the plants really get vigorous when drier than you think they should be.

It's different with a drip system. Then the medium is always moist and aerated. So they can always take up nutrients.

They can't well in a wet pot.

Isn't this a Canadian political thread?

an extra day and letting pot go dry are two very different things.

everyone has a different secret to their sauce..his works for him; yours, for you.

i assure you though, there is method to the madness; everything he does is for a reason.

I said 3/4 dry down the pot many times here.


I can't believe you are still defending Ttystick's growing ability. His pics discredited him already.

20 years of growing experience he claims but I had to tell him DE is a silica source. He said he was told its calcium.

And I have read plenty of his rediculous posts all over here and thc Farmer. He has learned next to nothing about growing in all these years. Some noobs follow him for a bit until they learn better.

Are you sure you have seen his yellow wall of nanner filled plants grown from supposedly legitimate stable elite cuts no one else has?

If I didn't like him but he was a good grower I would say so.

I am honest to a fault. Many say brutally honest. He is just a fraud. And according to those who know him in real life. He is a fraud there too.

The problem is when they circle they become support roots and not moisture wicking roots with hairs (the real terms elude me, bed time joint already consumed).

But if you slice through them they will start to grow fine roots again from the wounded areas and it won't affect the plant at all.

You don't have to do that unless they are really bound up. When you up pot to a larger size pot the roots continue to grow and search. You can see them reach out from the root ball even before they get filled in with new dirt.

Takes 2-3 weeks to fill the pot with roots and then some in my garden each pot. Plastic 16 oz cup to #1 nursery pot to #3. Each time you can pull the plant right out by its stem. Or it isn't ready yet.

I've had tomatoes that I've started in small red cups and let them get nice and swirly and when I up potted it the roots never really expanded into the new medium, that's why I get the razor blade out if I can't gently untangle them by hand.

Maybe I am transplanting sooner than it sounds like when I describe it. I transferred all my pics out of my phone to trade it in soon so I don't have any pics handy. I might be able to find one I posted here.

I don't post pics either way (not with Trump in charge and the precarious Federal legal situation regarding our Indian (from India...) Tomatos.

I understand. You are very private about your heirloom tomatoes.

I am medically permitted and follow the regulations for plant count and meds on hand at all times.

How does this have anything to do with the Province of Quebec wanting to outlaw home grows?

Exactly nothing.
