lol..uh oh...the ol nute burn myth....lol

ok so why is it that guys think food burns. if food burnt it would right away as soon as it hit the soil. so what happens to the food to cause the burn. or what happens to the plant to cause it to burn. ive burnt with no food. so its not food doing the burning. its actualy lack of food. not enough. what has caused it can be alot of things. and yes...to much food is one of millions. but its not the actual food ellements doing the burn/.
opk when we mix our food recipe or dose. the stronger or closer to full feed we get a lower ph in the mix. so needs more solution to raie it to what we need according to the medium. what happens if we didnt pH this food (synthetic food) the plant cant eat it or get to the ellements it needs at the time. so the plant starves as if no food was in the medium.so if we dont water enough on water day the food builds. i think we all agree there. what happens when food build...just like making a full dose food compared to week 1. ph drops. each time we feed now the food build more and more till the ph is completly out of range for a plant to eat. then we have a major acidic medium. what happens when we pour an acid on a root. it will fry it. that is what is causing the burns. ....not running enough water on a water day for what we used for food and what the plants needs are for its age.
in my journal i have my own strians ive made. s9ince day 1 of the seed showing its head above soil ive been feeding them all at 700 to 900 tds. im now in mid week 3. not a burn. not a deff/. not even a spot of an issue. how come. most would say im on crack to feed a 1 week old seedling a feed of 700 tds. but im doing it. because i wash good on water day so no build up of food.

people call this nbute burn, a salt build up. ok well the food is a salt new in the bottle so the loose term has been missinterpreted to sound like some sort of change happens to the molecules. there is no change to them but they can bind together. and again. when they bind they fall out. and this means the plant cant eat it now so it will again become hungry and burn.
the reason we dont usualy see this for the organic food guys is the food isnt even a plant food yet when we feed. its food for the fungi and microbes. they eat it. then when they shit that shit is the food. and this process is slooooow. this is why ph isnt as important in organic and we usualy dont see burns. the process is just so slwo the food is released slow so build up dosent happen. bvut then we also dont give her food as she needs it. we give as its avail;able according to our microbes. this is why we get less bud and less potency in organcis.


its kind of like is the cup half full or half emnpty. so yes to much food can burn. but as this shows not as they think. if i had a burn. i could run full feed at it and fix the burns. now it has good ph and fresh food and will be able to eat. when they do the flush to solve this so called nute burn. all they are doing is correcting the mediums pH.

That is very interesting. I always thought it was to much nutes that caused the burn. I feed my plants Miracle Grow Tomato. Any reccomendations on how to go about doing that properly?

I've got a tip for taking the "Sticky resin" off your hands and fingers as well as the smell when doing your harvest...........Vaseline hand creme (not the petroleum one).....works amazing!!

that's a waste, use butter and lick it off. or better yet scrape it off and add it to a batch of canna butter.

butane. look up honey bee extractors. can buy the tool or make one of pvc pipeing and silk screen for the best filter,. but a coffee filter will work to. need clean butane dont buy cheep. it wont get the full pull and has residue fillers in it. i use calibri. its the best i can get here. other areas may have better or diff ones. square pyrex dish. cookie sheet that the pyrex can sit flat in.
gring the bud. not to fine but break it up. jam that extractor tight full of bud..or trim if you want. less potent but still decent, then start runnijng cans of butane through the inlet hole. can count depenhds on bud amount. say in an oz of bud id use maybe 3 cans. you can keep that aside and even run more but wont be as pure and potent. forgot run the drain end in the pyrex. once done warm water from tap in cookie sheet. place pyrex and bytane mix on top. it will begin to steam and bubble now as it evaporates off till there is no liquid left. once near the end start stirring it and work to the center in 1 glob of it. as you do it gets thicker and thicker. once its done that. you can smoke. or take it to the next level and heat it to convert the acid to pure thc. i use the heat pad on a coffe machine. or something that warm. not hot, just warm. you dont want to be over 200c...

ill paste a copy of why and what this is or does for us.....can do this to dry bud as well before using in butter for any medible baked cannabis product

Marijuana produces THCA, an acid with the carboxylic group (COOH) attached. In its acid form, THC is not very active. It is only when the carboxyl group is removed that THC becomes psychoactive. When marijuana is smoked, the THC behind the hot spot is vaporized as the hot air from the burn is drawn through the joint or pipe bowl to the unburned material. The liquid THC and other cannabinoids have a boiling point of between 180-200? C (355-392? F). Before they turn gaseous, at around 106? C (220? F), the carboxyl group is released from the molecule as carbon dioxide and water vapor.

so basicly this is saying heating cannabis at no more than 200 will remove the carbon molecule and turn thc acid to pure thc for more potent. htis is what we do when we dry and cure. same exact thing but at a way slower rate. this is why slow dry is best. less heat so the carbon release is slower

so doing the later heating and continuously stirring this mix it will gradualy also harden. depending on times and products used for butane and bud this can get as hard as crack. or a rock...lol and white. the lighter or more golden yellow it is the more potent and pure it is. this stuff has been tested and the highest ive seen yet was in mid 90% THC
