No, my point was that its NOT like that.Kinda like this?
Yours look completely different, they are plants with nodes, not just snipped buds from some other plant used as a prop.
High Times cover doesn't look like an AG grow, just a prop-photo shoot.

Those new AG sponges must work wonders, my gray sponges caused nothing but problems and it took for-ever for my stuff to root. (2 weeks+)

well... when i see a plant grow tall in my closet, that i planted and have been taking care of for a month or so. nurtured it, fed it, cared for it....I started it...
Don't apologize...
I think everyone behaved beautifully passionate, yet remained respectful... enough for big boys anyways...
I just try to shake the cages every once in a while...
You're pretty quick to "know" things too..
I have seen you see something for the first time... and from then on you KNOW it...
Not starting anything... just thought the timing was perfect...
I love you Shack and I would NEVER spend my time around someone if I didn't... but I am being honest here...
yes i do KNOW that the plant likes to stretch prior to the onset of flower. because I grew the plant, and witnessed with my own two eyes the plant stretch. therefore, i KNOW this plant stretches.
i don't claim to KNOW how to raise every strain.. i haven't done it
i don't claim to KNOW how to harvest and cure the BEST way.. i haven't done it
i don't claim to KNOW how to diagnose every plant problem.. i haven't seen them
i only claim to KNOW things I have witnessed with my own two eyes... if you can't claim to know that, what can you claim???
i might be leaving this thread. everyone is keeping with the niceties and saying "oh i don't hate anyone, i'm just sharing.. and trying to learn... based on blah blah blah
" but still everyone is keeping up with the poking and prodding and taking little shots at each other. for someone that LOVES "positive vibrations" you sure do like to rattle cages a lot.

How you figure?
Looks like about halfway done lollipops grown under the weak AG light to me...
I bet I could do that.. just like it... with differences in the genetics of course...
Mine looke like plants with nodes cause the had nodes...
If I had lollipoped them, they would look just like a bud someone stuck in there...
Like this pic...
Imagine there was only one bud instead of 2...
Now picture it coming out of the AG..
bud sticking out of the AG... hummmm... just like that other pic showed...
Now.. it could be fake... but I say I, or anyone, could do it if they wanted to...

Just having some fun of course.
I hate to get you all riled up again (who am I kidding, I love it) but sounds to me like you're talking out of your ass.
Those pretty clearly are (or could be) clones that were grown in an aerogarden.
I don't know why you insist on being right all the time, maybe you should spend a little more time focusing on your craft, and a little less telling us all how it is.
Or maybe I'm just a huge dick who is empowered by the anonymity of the internet.
Either way, you suck.

wow... I never said you didn;t know your plant stretches...
I never said you did...
Things that you see often enough to take into account at least a few variables...
When you first see something.. it is new to you... and the possibilities are endless...
Knowing something without spending time with it... is a false sense of security that can bite you..
Shame.. I'll miss you...
I am just being honest...everyone is keeping with the niceties and saying "oh i don't hate anyone, i'm just sharing.. and trying to learn... based on blah blah blah
call me out on anything you think I said wrong...
Oh wait...
you are..I am a revolutionary by soul...
I rattle everything I can as often as I can...
I refuse to just take things as they come...
I want to see the backstage AND how the tricks are done...
...
...
LET ME JUST STOP AND SAY ONE THING HERE....
You guys are my friends here...
I never say anything out of spite... or to hurt someone...
But being friends, in my book, means you can disagree, and even provide constructive criticism... without it being taken as a personal attack...
I believe I should be more honest about what I think about a friend of mine amongst friends than behind his back...
100% of what I have told you Shack... 100% of it was with the intention of helping you get a better yield quicker...
Sorry if I have to be an ass sometimes... but I just don't know how to make shit smell like roses...
I apologize...
I seem rude and cold sometimes... it's the internet dudes....
The only reason I come here is to share...
Arguing on the internet is like the special olympics... eve if you win, you're still retarded...
Debating on the other hand is healthy, and I believe it should be encouraged often and in all aspects of life...
Einstein inspired me to NEVER stop questioning... never let what see fool you....
Don;t let me get to you Shack...
I was just being honest with a friend... at least that is what happened in my head...
Sorry if I offended you or anyone...
I was just trying to keep it real and honest as I would if I looked you in the eye and shook your hand everyday...

Sorry bud, I really don't mean any harm. I just like to give people a hard time, its sort of my nature.

ASSHOLE!!!!
Blacker than black time INFINITYyyyyy!!!!!
I believe it may be too late...
SZ.. you did nothing wrong...
If anything I am at fault for wanting a forum with straight up facts and have a low tolerance for BS...
Where I live, if you are not the strongest, you perish...
So I'm up with that... someone runs... what can I do... ?
I just wish everyone realized what kind of person I am.. then they would know that even if I was telling to go fuck themselves, I would be doing so with their best interest in mind.. IF I CALLED THEM A FRIEND...
But if my friend tells me I am ugly.. and that is reason enough for me to shun him... maybe we were not that good of friends to begin with.. it was just an illusion...

Maybe I am assertive about stuff because on that specific subject matter I know what I am talking about.
Did you ever think of that?
I don't know everything and never claimed to.
But yea I guess I don't know shit about growing weed in aerogardens... I mean I didn't write a GUIDE for growing weed it or anything.
I think you need to spend a little more time reading through posts before you start jumping to conclusions and flaming people for shit that doesn't even involve you.
Quit trolling.

I'm just joshing. or am I???
I'd be the first to admit that i'm an 'instant expert' often regurgitating things I regard as true as though they are fact. But, I'd like to think that knowing that and being upfront about it negates the bad parts of it.
Do i ever appreciate honesty though. Everytime someone tells me I'm doing something wrong, it is excellent, because it means I will soon be doing one less thing wrong. Assuming I agree with them.
Anyhow, Speaking of things I do wrong.
I'm going to scrap the netpots I've been using in favour of these little 4" square buggers. Do you think it will be neccesary for me to continue covering my trays with panda film?
This has been something i've been contemplating. My main problem with the netpots is that the roots seem to escape a little too easily. But i'm still a little concerned about heating up the root area too much.
Am I getting my point across or am I too high to keep my words straight?

It had crossed my mind, but you have since proven otherwise.
Lots of underqualified people write guides.
Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach.
Regardless, that still doesn't explain why you're convinced the HT cover is a fake. As Gypsy put it (much more elequently than I could)
True that GB, true that.it could be fake... but I say I, or anyone, could do it if they wanted to...
Dude, don't forget that you brought this on by posting pictures to show what you could do. I felt it my duty to call you out on being a novice and you got all butthurt. Perhaps if you're uncomfortable with the reaction you are getting you should try a different, less BS filled, approach. Or just quit making unsubstantiated claims.
By the way, I litterally L-ed O L when I read "GUIDE" in caps. You really hammered your point home there.

Hey..
SZ is not a troll.....
but uh... just do what we do and post some pics...
Bring your guide over here.. let's look at it...
SHOW us what you do, as we have shown you what we do.. and you will get the same weight in your words as we do... weight amongst us friends I mean...
But when you show me a weak batch that your friend did.. and SZ comes over with DANK...
You cannot expect to be heard as loud...
Maybe that is not even fair...
But it's equally unfair to all of us...
If I cannot be honest with my friends... then the world IS lost...
Sniff.. sniff...So having said that, you smell bad.
Sorry guys...
Yeah, but you quote people like Al B. Fuct...
That is a bit different...
I say Al B. Fuct's info has been peer reviewed and approved... and not only here on RIU either... he has been at it for many moons...
I thought I was wrong once too... but I made a mistake...
Oh Brother...
Nice move...
For different reasons, but yes...
The panda film will keep your tray algae free.. light will find it's way in the cracks in between the pots... and you know light + water = LIFE...
I use plastic squares a little bigger than each pot, so they overlap...
And I can still move just one pot if I want to... the pot and it's own little light condom...
Shouldn't be an issue if your temps are good...
Plus, laying down a white, reflective layer will result in less heat than the light hitting the red hydroton...
Straight!

I'll bring this over from a much less confrontational conversation on the same subject...
I'm still looking for scientific proof...
But as unproven facts go, my case just lost a few points...
I'm still looking for scientific proof...
But as unproven facts go, my case just lost a few points...
Well here is something I found real quick...not a peer reviewed journal...but that is asking a lot. I will not post the link as it goes to a competitor site...google image "bananas on marijuana"
I understand the reluctance to believe, but trust me, this I know...I have them, they polinate my bud if not careful, if you smash one you will see pollen especially when they are fat...unless they opened already, you said they looked empty...anyhow here you go:
"You will know which plants are male and which plants are hermafroditic females because the true males will produce the distinctively familiar clusters of balls while the females prodouce modified male flowers that look like bananas, sticking out of the flowers, like in this picture. They are however very small and not that easy to spot, you'll need at least 10x magnification."
I believed you... I am just looking for what you said would be asking a lot...
But I did read one word that has deff. changed shades of gray in my head...
The words MODIFIED MALE FLOWER had never been used in any of the articles I have had access to...
Therefore, my reluctance was fueled in part by my eyes not seeing MALE FLOWERS, even under the magnifying glass...
I have grown males before, and these were DEFF. different than what I saw then...
Thanks for your time dude...!!!

No, actually explicitly said the opposite in the first few lines of that post, that just shows that you can't read.
You sir, are a troll.
I posted those pictures to prove a point that I have done many *undocumented* grows, not just the ones I have posted here on RIU.
-----
And guess what, I have never harvested fully mature bud before! But I've taken about 8 different strains from veg all the way to flowering some further than others. Many of them I have grown out twice. I Always seemed run into problems along the way... I have lost 3 plants to root rot (whole crop). 2 crops to stem rot, and two other grows where the remaining plant was male, and I've even had a plant herm on me. I can't tell you how many germinated seedlings I have killed...
I have gone through so much trial and error... I have grown in handful of different mediums, organic soil, DWC, AeroGarden, BubblePonics and I even designed my OWN aeroponic setup.. If you find anyone else who has a design where the roots are that oxygenated that is simpler than that I will be amazed.
I couldn't really give a rats ass about if you think I am qualified or not, I have alot of first hand experience and knowledge.
And.. so these people that are following my guide have a bad teacher? Don't think they would say so.

where's YOUR pics?
you just sounded like you are really experienced in failing before you finish...
and that you have tried so many things you have never really learned any of them...
and just because "the one eyed man" can help the blind across the street, does not mean he has good vision...
Just saying what it SOUNDS like...
show us some of YOUR WORK.. documented on RIU or not..
Just bring it.. but don;t bring Fox's pics.. use your own...
