[The Yorkshireman]

I started knowing nothing

You still do.

Yorkie is just arrogant and started spouting crap when I didn't agree with him.

No, again you're just straight lying.



I replied to your post where you mentioned defoliating your plant and the rational behind it.

I replied, quite civilised actually (apart from calling the theory forum bullshit) with some biological facts about auxin, which I suspect you didn't even know existed before me mentioning it.

Then you posted the first bit few bits info you could find from google regarding anything about defoliation, posting said few bits of info without actually reading or understanding any of it because non of it agreed with your idea.

After several people before me pointed out you were wrong you still pretty much goaded me into replying further as you'd already disregarded the initial post and those made by others and obviously wanted to play some silly delusional game.

I then spent about 9 hours of my time reading through and understanding every link in more than the first 12 pages of Google results regarding "Defoliation benefits".

I summarized every page and posted the results here for all the plants you mentioned AND more (some with substantial amounts of scientific studies linked), NONE of the results and scientific evidence used defoliation techniques ON ANY plants like you think it works on cannabis via anecdotes on forums.

You then took very small snippets of that factual evidence out of context to try and argue your point further and the info that you couldn't take out of context was disregarded altogether.

I got tetchy when you tried telling us your wannabe cola was nearly as big as mine, when I broke the pictures down for you and explained how colas actually develop you disregarded that too and carried on.

The posts are there, everybody's read them, stop compulsively lying.

You are deluded and you are a fool.

I'm pretty sure his pics are faked tbh

I don't have a digital microscope or macro camera, but I did what I could lining up my phone cam with the lens of my microscope to show my trichomes, plus there's a bonus pic of my infused coconut oil and finished fudge and a repost of one of my bud pics, not sure how you think it's got no trichomes...

 

[The Yorkshireman]

I've said myself this was my first grow

I've done water-curing before

Can't even mind on what he's said in the space of 20 mins or so.

Mind-boggling isn't it, how can someone cure weed without growing it? Oh right, I believe I may have mentioned my best mate's been growing nearly 20 years. He's always sorted me out when he harvests, but he just hands me a bunch of branches and says you can fucking trim it yourself I'm sick of it.

 

[The Yorkshireman]

If I'm not mistaken he's 8.64g short on his nutritional analysis, it adds up to 91.36g not 100g.


I'm open to correction.

The shit we throw away, the stuff that doesn't even make the hash pile.

And it was nearly 15 years he'd been growing last time.

 

[The Yorkshireman]

Shit's too funny, away with the fairy's this one.

.........................

You did post a civilized and informative reply at first and I didn't have a clue what auxin was until you mentioned it and I read into it.

All those links I provided did show increased yield or quality with selective defoliation, severe defoliation or defoliation of the wrong parts of the palms for example hurt yield or quality.

They didn't fully support or discredit defoliation and in my opinion after reading everything you've posted and that I've found myself, nothing so far does discredit partial, selective defoliation in the right circumstances being effective. I'm not saying pull every leaf off and you'll grow more buds.

Nobody, again, posted anything conclusive. I've stated that multiple times and you just keep making the same arguments.

You did get tetchier when I posted my cola, and tried claiming the 2nd pic wasn't the same cola when I showed you the side view.

 

[The Yorkshireman]

So full of shit.

 

[The Yorkshireman]

Stripped his plant of all fan leaves bar the smaller ones supporting bud sites........

 

[Bunduki]

TBH, I was actually quite enjoying and learning from the argument until you switched from science and reason to blowing your top, spouting insults and trying to discredit me rather than what I said.

I really don't bullshit, I'm an argumentative cunt but I argue facts or opinions based on facts.

'All fan leaves' huh. It was about half actually and only on the interior of the plant. I can see quite a few there, have you got some eye problems along with your temper control issues?

Edit-Thanks for the pic btw, remember that's 1.2m wide there.

 

[Antgotaclue]

I fucking love this site me ha ha

.......................

You discredit yourself with the shit you post.

The science discredited what you said.

You still don't get the difference between legitimate defoliation techniques that are used in the real world for provable reasons and the defoliation technique used by idiots like you on weed forums for an entirely assumed reason that is proven not to be based on fact and rational as the technique (as assumed) doesn't work...................because AUXINS.

It's called logic.

'All fan leaves' huh. It was about half actually and only on the interior of the plant. I can see quite a few there

You're obviously fucking trolling now because I refuse to believe you are honestly that blind and stupid.

I've got a really cynical view of the millennial generation but fuck me............really?

I'm not using Windows Paint (again) to fucking mark where the fans leaves are that are left to prove that they're all supporting bud sites and there's no main ones left.

problems along with your temper control issues?

Read the signature lad, like it says.....

I don't have a short temper, I have a quick reaction to bullshit!

remember that's 1.2m wide there.

Full of lanky branches and twigs.

No you're right, but so are my figures. Google the cocoa info for yourself, it's 21.5g fat, 14g carbs, 33.5g fibre, 23g protein, 14g salt, that adds up to 93.4g, I'm guessing they only list either soluble or insoluble fibre, plus trace elements? I don't really have a clue there.

I read up on auxins, I also read further into other plant hormones and posted some research about their interactions with auxins which you probably ignored.

Now you're talking through your arse about fan leaves. Look a little closer.

Wow! ...............................just.......................................................... wow!

 

[The Yorkshireman]

I bet he's one of those special 'gender fluid' snowflake's too.

 

[Bunduki]

Is 'ur gay' really the best you can do? Are you sure you're not 12? Maybe you've been playing online shooters too much and need to readjust your maturity level when you're trying to talk to adults eh mate?

 

[The Yorkshireman]

There's my pics........

"........I'm rocking Kg's of dank me.

I didn't assume your sexual orientation at all.

At best I said you were confused with possible mental health issues.



Thick cunt.

Maybe you should pick up a dictionary..............shit you've got Google in front of you!
