Molasses?

My argument isn't that molasses is better than something else. The argument is "works vs. doesn't work," and I am definitely on the "works" side. But that doesn't mean molasses is the best thing since sliced bread, it's just another method among many ways of getting some of your macro and micronutrients via decomposition and fertilization.

I haven't, no, but the science still stands, man. Could I achieve it without molasses, using something else? Absolutely.

Then you are in fact talking about something you have no experience on...


This could've ended a long time ago if I just asked you this question before.

you just lost a shit tone of credibility on this one man. Anyone can read some shit....

It is quicker than, say, deriving your potassium and other nutrients from things that break down/decompose slower. I'm sure there are other, quicker and more potent things. Molasses is just effective, not the best.

Dude. Fine. Believe what you want. But the shit you're saying about me? It's actually you that you're describing. And I love you, bro, you're cool as shit, but it's ignorant to think that I don't know my shit because I have only grown for 7 months. I am a college student, and I certainly understand the science behind it.

Sometimes you are just not right man, i'm gonna have to say you are full of hubris at this point, you should take a step back and reevaluate yourself, having this much issue with admitting one was wrong is a serious character flaw and you cannot grow if you cannot learn from your mistakes, I make pleanty of them I argued so hard at @greasemonkeymann about something I WAS WRONG ABOUT, I admit I was wrong and we moved on from it and I hope we are more friendly because of it, you gotta earn peoples respect.

yea but man, its not about your intellect skillset.
it's like reading abook on how to have sex.
you can read all you want but THERE IS NO REPLACEMENT FOR EXPERIENCE

same thing with automechanics, I see a LOT of tech-grads that know all there is to know about an internal combustion engine, but have ZERO clue on how to fix cars.
we all start somewhere my man.

I truly am sorry that I rub you all the wrong way, it's something I'm trying to deal with, myself.[/QUOTE]

it's alright man, I understand that aspect of it
just remember the attitude received is often a reflection of the attitude given.
just try and be a lil more chill my friend.
we can all get along.

Again, this is partly true. But potassium has been identified as one of the biggest contributors. It's what the plant uses to fuel its trichome production. You drink milk for its calcium, right? And when you drink it, there are millions of little microbes in your stomach that break it down into nutrients that your stomach can absorb properly. Why is this so hard for you to understand?

alright...
first.
you are being condescending towards me now.
I don't appreciate that, and if you continue i'll embarrass your limited knowledge on cannabis growing.
you don't wanna bark at this tree man.
i'm a puppy-dog, but condescension I don't take lightly on

Honestly, the biggest problem here is nepotism. Just like politics. You guys only give credence to people who have been waiting in line long enough, and that's why this site's information is so fucking convoluted. I have brought you guys good information. Testable and replicable information. But believe what you will and ignore everything else, I suppose. Love you guys, even if the attitude here doesn't bode well for the research.

How in the hell was I condescending to you? Don't be so sensitive. And, don't try to intimidate me. Because it won't work. Please, relax.

I truly don't understand how you guys aren't getting what I'm saying, because I do respect you as intelligent people.

It's condescending.

and i'm not trying to intimidate you, tryin to save YOU from the public humiliation
More so than you ALREADY have.
you know we are all laughing at your right?

That was a legitimate question, not an ad hominem attack. Neither is this: Please don't be so sensitive. I respect you.

Public humiliation from what? I think anyone reading this can see the logic behind the science I explained to you guys, even if they are new.

Regardless, I have yet to see anyone explain to me exactly why it doesn't work. I have explained, in detail, why it does. Like I said, think of the milk analogy and how it provides calcium to your bones. Microbes break it down, and your stomach absorbs it. Just like a plant in a medium utilizing microbes.

the fact that you don't know is precisely the problem.
it's alright

it's not a legitimate question.
I understand 100% on EXACTLY how the plant takes up, and uses all macros and micros.
I've read more books than you know, and I've been growing since 1989.
I grow orchids, violets, avocados, fruits, lavender, jasmine, bamboo, clerodendrons, all vegetables, hybrid tea roses, philodendrons, etc, etc, etc.

so asking me why I don't understand your explanation
is to me, condescending.

I think anyone that has been on this site understands that I have competent grasp on horticulture.

So explain to me, the hangup/flaw in my logic instead of just telling me that I'm wrong. Where am I going wrong, if you understand exactly how it works?
