Hawaiian Spirulina in a Nutshell

Its hard to take someone serious who only praise their own work without even sharing it? You mention and reference things that simply don't exist and then being angry when people point this out?

Without any proof to the pudding it's a one way communication to a dead end.
Stark contrast.
In the 90’s as a guerilla farmer? There were no pictures. No evidence. No imagery were taken because it would indicate loose policy.
In this case and if any of you were paying attention my MacBook Air failed during an update. I have no access to my own work resume; My food recipe’s nor of course, my side by sides, clif notes, what have you.

To be honest? I am totally over it.
If I started anything of a thread? It is because I witnessed something noteable. If not out if the ordinary. If not extraordinary.

What I have learned that I learned the hard way five years ago when stepping away from the forums? Is that the simple voluntary expenditure of selflessness that one might extend for the Greater of All? Is greeted with scrutiny. I offered something of significance because I have seen enough that I thought to open up and share it.

I was attacked for lack of photogenic evidence. Again, it really depends on where your motives and mindset are.

I am no self-proclaimed anything. I found something and for revealing it? It ALL comes down to “pictures or it didn’t happen.”

Again. In the 80’s and 90’s? We didn’t take pictures or record anything. Because, it never happened. If it did? You were front page news.

Hey’ya there, folks!

Not sure how many of you know about the effects of spirulina on cannabis? It is quite remarkable, actually. My outdoor plants in the SF Bay area exhibited this really unique “spiral” of elongated flowers.

The world is your oyster!
The Hawaiian spirulina does the funniest thing! It literally causes your plants cola’s to skyrocket and "spiral".

Cannabis genus tend to want to “run” under the influence of spirulina. Tall lanky and again I don’t know what it is about it but my cola’s look like “spiraling spears”.
Im glad that I took the time to read every post on this thread. I hope @8Rhizome8 comes back with some good pictures. :bigjoint:
I think using the word "spiraling" might be a slight exaggeration. I didn't notice anything unusual in any of the cannabis pictures that were provided. Its not worth the time for anyone to run the experiment without better proof.

Also, I have seen colas kind of "spiral" when the nodes start to alternate on a plant with the Whorled Phyllotaxi mutation.
(Pics below are for reference to the mutation. Random Google images.)

Im laying in bed, with a very active imagination. Here is my hypothesis that might "sound" more believable.

The "non-edible" spirulina is loaded with heavy metals. If it is mixed into the soil, it will induce a Whorled Phyllotaxi mutation in your cannabis plant. The plant will not grow out of the Phyllotaxi mutation, as most plants commonly do. As a result of this unusual effect of the spirulina, the colas display a fascinating "spiraling" pattern. The "spiraling" is caused by the alternating nodes on the Whorled Phyllotaxis cannabis plant.

Below is a reference to the spiraling pattern that was observed on the mutated plant.

If that's the case you would see it in the plants around Chernobyl or places like that then where they plant hemp or cannabis as it accumulates that stuff

Found this reference @conor c . It seems the plant can still be used. I imagined that the plant would be full of toxins, making it unusable.

"The accumulation of anthropogenic heavy metals in soil is a major form of pollution. Such potentially toxic elements are nonbiodegradable and persist for many years as threats to human and environmental health. Traditional forms of remediation are costly and potentially damaging to the land. An alternative strategy is phytoremediation, where plants are used to capture metals from the environment. Industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa) is a promising candidate for phytoremediation. Hemp has deep roots and is tolerant to the accumulation of different metals. In addition, the crop biomass has many potential commercial uses after harvesting is completed. Furthermore, the recent availability of an annotated genome sequence provides a powerful tool for the bioengineering of C. sativa for better phytoremediation."

I would be very cautious about generalizing this to the cannabis we use vs hemp, since hemp is mostly used for textiles and some industrial oils etc.....
