    soil nutes in hydro?

    Not saying it can't work. I just don't like organic buckets. Organic drain to waste works great. I tried organic buckets for about a year, when I placed the same project on a tray and ran drain to waste, my yield went up and my roots stayed healthier the whole time. Not staying impossible just...

    EXCUSE ME?!..The OFFICIAL Bernie Sanders For President 2016 Thread

    The clintons have a longer track record as well working for the community. they represented Arkansas which has much more of an AA population than Vermont. I think I met the AA population of Vermont one time, nice guy. Anyway the Clintons have more history, and familiarity. Vermont is the...

    soil nutes in hydro?

    Organic with sitting water, even with lots of aeration can be difficult. Root disease is hard to avoid. If you have your mind set on organic nutes, I'd recommend drain to waste. Coco can be a good one to transition to from soil. You do all the feeding, like hydro. You can set up a Rez and...

    And that is why I like to argue with you! Your crazy man. Sometimes you call names sometimes you think I'm a sock. Good times.

    One can hate what's happening In the levant without hating brown people. I very much hate ISIS, and the Saudi regime for that matter. I dislike wahabi style Islam, not because i dislike brown people. I dislike Mysogyny, slavery, the persecution of minorities. I dislike the KKK for the same...

    Plants have yellowing leaves throughout

    The most common mistake any herb grower makes is loving their girls too much. Too many ferts, too many boosts, too much light, watering too often. The best crops I've ever grown have used the least number of bottles. Two bottles of base for me and a little MPP, and I can keep perfect leaves...

    Technically that could be bigoted, but not racist. Iraqi is not a race, nor is Muslim. Iraq WAS maybe the most modern society in the Middle East before we invaded. Sucks we ruined it.

    Dropping science! I've learned something new. Upon review of the audit the fed movement, which has been going in earnest for years now, it seems that what they want access to is not just fed balance sheet, but the deliberations and reasoning for financial policy decisions. So, "why is the rate...

    Mature Plant 'random' death

    3/4 ml per gallon in clear water is enough free chlorine to kill germs and keep the solution what's called bacteriostatic. Won't necessarily kill off all the infection but will make it nigh impossible for germs to grow in the medium. That's slightly more bleach than in tap water, but less than a...

    Gavita Sold To Hawthorne Group

    You mention great points. I feel the same. One of those situations where I would prefer if we could just set aside aside tons of wilds and say,"no people allowed to save the animals." Unfortunately,experience has showed me unless one man protects a group of animals, another man will destroy...

    Gavita Sold To Hawthorne Group

    Well I agree with 90% of the same shit to be honest. I hate factory farms that grow meat, hate antibiotics in my meat, and hate that armed cops will raid a dairy that sells fresh milk. Chickens are tortured for all intents and purposes. We both hate all those things. Long time ago I was a...

    Gavita Sold To Hawthorne Group

    To be fair and honest, I found that China does have good wheat yields, and not surprisingly, good rice yields. After 4000 yrs you'd think they'd be good at it. China does like Big ag though, they use lots of fertilizer and pesticide to get their good yield per acre. They still import however...

    Mature Plant 'random' death

    Physan is pretty much for sanitizing equipment and stuff. I know some people use it off label to sanitize plant, but i don't think you want to go that route. Them problem with fusarium is it technically lives inside the stem of the plant, it gets in at the soil line and lives on the moisture...

    We ran our family farm for over 100 years. We don't get subsidies and don't need em, we grow tomatos. Not subsidized bro. Your thinking corn, which is for ethanol. I currently grow herb like the rest of you guys, just telling you guys how it rolls. I've sold more tons of food than you've seen...

    Oh geez. Not sure where to start on that one. China doesn't make nearly enough food for their 1.1 billion people. We export them a huge chunk of wheat and dairy and meat. Their farms aren't efficient, they pollute like crazy and yield far less than American farmers per acre...

    Ketamine ~ Any takers ? Why so taboo ?

    It's like being the safest motorcycle. It's a relative statement. If anything goes wrong you'll wish you were in a Volvo. I made a similar statement earlier, we needed anesthesia trained Vet around when we sedated the baboons, Otherwise they could die. We do tend the give the baboons bigger...

    Ketamine ~ Any takers ? Why so taboo ?

    Just an estimate based on other ld charts I've seen. There's always outliers in populations, individuals who either die at much lower or much higher dosages. Excellent points though. If I'm ever discussing drugs with people I encourage caution rather than confidence. Safer than sorrier :) jusf...

    FBI NOT GOING TO RECOMMEND INDICTMENT!!

    My problem with Benghazi is they were scooping up weapons to send to "rebels" in Syria. Arming jihadists is a terrible idea, didn't work well for us in Afghanistan against Russia. Bit us hard in the ass, now we at it again
