There's another myth and fallacy.I answered a question about the grams-per-watt calculation the other day, and am formulating up a nice post about how to do so for the newb section. I might become part of the club

My friend, I gave you a link which addressed my experience with high N foods, READ.
UB, I've been following your posts since I ran across one of your discussions on Jack's Classic and have learned a lot of valuable information from you and thanks to that information, I just had one of the most successful grows I've ever had and the next will be even better.
If you kept them green and healthy until harvest then you did the best that you could. Not everyone can do that even it they want to. For some strange reason I've personally struggled with keeping some plants green come the flowering response. Most times it's because I played games with bloom foods which always got me into trouble.
Unlearn everything you thought was true.So is the flowering half of most nute regimes just all a hoax? If it doesn't do anything beneficial why bother? I'm one if those lazy ass newbs that go with the flow and have but not a clue about botany. Its really hard to not switch to the flower nutes as thats the thing your "supposed to do".
No offence taken! And no sarcasm intended, more of a discussion point. Just being honest about my knowledge base. I have been growing for many years and following forums for a relatively short period. The practice of using high N for growth and high P for flower is not new. Basically what I was trying to ask is if the flower nutes are useless why are they out there? Is it just a marketing thing. My using both products has quite possibly hindered growth but I have never failed to bring in a harvest, just wonder why they are even out there is all. Its not like the bloom part of the mix sells for more. Is there no benefit at all to switching? Oh and I'm probably echoing a majority of personal growers that dont read volumes of botany books, i may be wrong! Fyi I have been adding a bit of nitrogen based nutes throughout since reading a few if yours and others threads.
I am skepticle of all things I read on forums lol. But I also take it all in and sort through it. I have learned many things from UB's threads as well as others.
I will give an example, My hydro A+B Grow ratio was almost the exact same as the Bloom, 6-0-6 Grow and bloom NPK is 6-2-8, so as you can see, this is nothing that even a weak P-K boost will sort, not that it needs it.
Money.
What nonsense. Cannabis is magical and unique and it's nothing like growing say, a plant. It has to be. How else would i justify getting ripped off for bloom boosters and such? And i'm a pot grower, not a gardener, stop pissing on my street cred!
Hate to clue you in but cannabis is a plant. Might wanna consider it as such one of these days.
I had rather hoped that the absurd reasoning given in the section you didn't quote would begin to indicate that I'm in agreement with you and just having a little laugh at the people getting ripped off buying silly cannabis specific products.
Every fool has money to burn and vendor salesmen know how to milk them.
How the world works. And in this instance, I see it as I see apple customers
get the marketing right and you'll get them all to buy any old crock of shit for whatever price you feel like.
