RIU advice is so bad

That's it you've sealed the deal!!!! I'm buying first thing in the morning. Too high/sleepy to do it now. Actually you have to pay by bank transfer so I've no choice but to do it in morning. If u didn't start this thread I'd still be wavering on the thought, so thanks. Have u came across the cat piss pheno yet? I've heard it real nasty.
Cat piss pheno in the green crack seeds? Nope.
I've got a cat pissy Super Silver Haze though... View attachment 2376873View attachment 2376874

We have a cat who when was young had pissing problems... it literally took us a couple months to realize that it was coming from the room and not the cat. Super pissy during growth. More lemon smelling after, but still a little pissy/sour/ammonia. That was my first interaction with "cat piss" smell from cannabis. I was a little shocked by how much it really does smell like cat piss. I had previously thought the whole cat piss thing was just some stoner talk.

Haha poor cat lol I've grew ssh once 3 of them and man, that stuff just took me back, pure oldskool taste,mmmmmm I can taste it now. Good stuff ssh will have to run it again one day. It's the time it takes to finish that puts me off.
 
No one misunderstand me here... I am not bashing "RIU" or the mods/admins. I'm bashing much of the advice offered on here...

The typical advice posted from many folks on RIU has gotten so bad.

I've tried to help out when I can. I mention with my advice if it is from a) experience b) something i read c) popular opinion d) university study.
For some reason I enjoy helping out here on RIU, and at my volunteer position with a certain county ext office. It's fun to talk shop and help people out.

I am no god of gardening though, and I do not claim to be. There are some areas I am experienced in and am happy to help. I do not claim to know everything and I do not tell people that their "OPINION" is wrong. Notice that word... OPINION.

But seriously. The posters who are typing up nonsense as advice to people looking for help is ridiculous. I like RIU. But I'm also sort of looking for a new site. It's getting filled with bullshit. I'm not sure if every site is like that. But RIU is definitely flooded with it.

Has anyone ever noticed that (aside from UB and a few) the people who go in to threads and say "you are wrong", "i am right", "that is stupid", etc etc... are just spewing bullshit hearsay cannabis grower bullshit...?

Then to make it worse... the people who are not nonsense ranting trolls do not have the desire to troll back. So the loudest voice gets heard and that voice is the clueless asshole telling everyone that his/her diagnosis is the only correct one and the other folks posting are idiots...

I'm glad I learned botany the old fashioned way before I ever even heard of sites like RIU. If I had not, my head would be full of so much bullshit nonsense.

So please... cocky 3-4 grow noob fucks posting like they are the fucking King of Cannabis... stop. Advising others is not a good outlet for an ego boost. If you speak from EXPERIENCE you will not step out of your real knowledge. If you repeat everything the previous generation of RIU trolls ranted then this will just go and on. Advising is not a good source for boosting your ego.
I agree fully! People posting random shit about trolls and king of cannabis shit shouldnt be posted in general marijuana growing. ;)

DUDE! My new main man. Tell me - how long does this frigging SSH take to finish flowering? My only one ever is huge with huge buds - and they keep sprouting new flowers from established ones. This is 12 weeks and I swear it looks like it might take 10-14 days more easy. HELP! And that smell? Mine has zilch.

Hotrod mine took 96 days to finish. Agreed the thing just never stops growing. But in my opinion well worth the wait!

I hear you... I found a 9 wk pheno that is great.

The above plant takes 9 weeks. I was very very happy to find it. I germd 16 seeds and got one 9 wk female.

Yep. My 12-14 week SSH pheno does the same... new growth never stops... here it is... both the 9 wk and this one are from the same pack.

I bend back as much as i can and either take her at 12 or 14 wks. In the end I end up with a bit of premature buds at the top that it just kept sending out. i throw them in the hash/butter pile.

I am the man you want to speak to. I dont say a lot but have loads of experience with all types of growing. I dont ask for help. I find out via others and my own experience.
 
BeanHo (from Hemp Depot) His SSH #2 he uses is a 9 wk SSH. Just like the 9 wk in my photo. You could find a cross of his with SSH#2 and try to find it...
