See bloom booster thread for examples... Or better, learn something about how plants take up nutrients and what plant nutrients are to plants. Why plants exist, what plant material and bud is largely made of... and you'll be able to see through his nonsense yourself. There's not special about Canna except the label and the bottle. It's targeted at smaller unknowing growers who are suckers for the idea of getting more bud. It's all the same shit. Even more it HAS to be the same shit, as it's only that shit a plant 'eats'. How many greenhouses and large grow ops do you think waste money on having Canna mix their nutes and put their label on it.... that's all what they do. There's no magic, just basic elements, and the thing about those basic elements, is that at that basic level, they are the same.
Ok, so that's a major example of how you tell yourself you bust UB's balls? If you would learn a little about phloem translocation you'd know that is a whole plant process. Simply put, by doing it on the same plant, he actually gave an advantage to the defoliated side that a fully defoliate plant wouldn't have, the supply of photosynthate from the other side. Leaves work for the entire plant. Also, if that were a widely spread out cropped or topped plant it wouldn't be the worst way to test it, as a clone only saves genotype and not phenotype and both the defoliated and the non-mutilated side would get nutrients through the same roots mass from the same medium, same nutes, same watering regime. We discussed how to properly test it (no idea why, ah yes, to show that the tests from defoliators are far from clean tests) many times. Unlike UB I haven't seen you contribute much useful info to the discussions.
The reality is that you and the other UB haters are childish and end up upsetting yourself throwing tantrums like kids. Judging others while being delusional dicks. That's the typical pattern of these discussions.
I wasn't pointing the finger as in blaming you for the thread and its course. It's just good to see defoliators nuking sort of their own threads. If any one really wants to know, they can search the forums for previous discussions. There's no point in discussing it any further, defoliation is a dead horse. The defoliators lost that debate many times.
Let me give you a tip: you're making it too obvious. Your bias that is. You seem like one of those people who thinks if you just belief hard enough it will become fact.
