I think it`s insulting to try and sell more bottled crap than to install a proper environment for educational growth. I have completed college level and advanced soil science courses in horticulture and agriculture. I know a thing or two about chelating environments.
Am I still embarrassing someone because of a
? funny... You try to stop me from speaking without offering why other than the fact that someone says it`s embarrassing to use a
? real funny..
Why don't you use Humates and Citrates as a chelating agent? Why use sugar and MORE organic compounds to break down and turn sour?
DO you have any idea how much dolomite lime I have to put in the soil to keep it in check right now? ya.. sugar.. HA.. good advice.. blah... Sorry, I wanted to talk about amino acids and the amino complex..
I wanted to talk about why the Amino Acids can create another chelation effect AND supply the bacteria with complex proteins/gluconates. The ferrous gluconate structure is similar to that of amino acid chelates... I was ignored, instead someone said I don't know what I am talking about.. There ya go, good way to start a conversation...
DO YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE AMINO ACIDS????
Ok now your just a troll, why do you hate everything so much? Sad sad people.
stop insulting me.. You are not teaching people why they can use citrates to use as a chelator as well as a pH adjusting agent. You are not talking about humus.. You are talking about why Sugar is better than humus and citric acids... You refused to talk to me about the Amino Complex and why YOU think it`s useful. I believe it is useful, I wanted YOUR advice.. What an ass I am, sorry.
Sugar as a chelator, no thanks.. Use Humic acids and/or citrates + L/D-Amino complex*, they do the same job as sugars but they use less molecular decomposition rates of organic compounds - this means less BAD bacteria
AND less of the dramatic pH shifts which can occur late in bloom, because of the bad bacteria.
*The L-(amino) stands for levorotatory. In nature, the vast majority of amino acids take the L configuration as opposed to the D-(Amino) configuration; D stands for dextrarotatory. The L and D configurations are enantiomers of each other; in other words, they have the same chemical structure and order to their molecules, but they are mirror images of each other. Molecules with enantiomers polarize light that is shown through it, and assigned an L or D based on which way the light bends when shown through a solution. Most amino acids naturally only occur in the L conformation, which make them enantiomerically pure.
It is normal for the medium to compact and begin to organically decompose after a few months of being wet. This is why many growers cannot reuse their soil very well. This same reason is why the soil becomes more stagnate after being in a potting container for months on end.
I grow 8ftx8ft trees which yield 5+lbs and take 6 months to grow, i do this in 30 gallon pots. NOT A SINGLE LEAF TURNS YELLOW AND FALLS OFF, until the last 2 weeks..
embarrassing? ..i think not. ..I smash the "1 ounce per soil gallon" rule like a ninja.. My roots are PURE white and encompass the entire medium.. Why should I be embarrassed? I know sugar is shit and better on pancakes, not in my soil.
I think some of you are confused as to what an AACT system can do.. It will
NOT break down all of the organic compounds, it
WILL suspend the anaerobic microbes from attacking the organic compounds.
Note: If you pour the anaerobic bacteria into the roots, they will slightly eat the roots until a proper chelation system is met. This can almost NEVER happen with sugar and other worthless organics in the teas.
Through breaking down the organic compounds in an aerobic tea, you are breaking the cellular walls and releasing the Nitric, and Phosphoric acids. You are also able to release Potassium from it`s mostly carbon/sulfate/citrate bonds as well.. This is what the plant wants, not a banana shoved into the roots.. You also have to remember, example: 12-0-0 means there is 12% nitrogen. What do you think the other 88% is? well, most of it is organic compounds which NEED to be decomposed BEFORE they are put in soil. Aerobatic teas, like that of AACT, do not fully decompose all of the organics.. You will have more in the tea which will turn sour as it decomposes. The plants do not need the tea to turn sour in the roots as soon as you stop bubbling the shit... ..literally.
Some organics can take weeks or months to fully decompose, if they are in your soil, BAM.. ACID.. I`m not being a dick, it`s just science.
