i dont think its any different.
all the regulars know me. i talk a lot of shit, i do alot of drugs.
but youd be hard pressed to find ANYONE on this forum that can compete with my knowledge of chemistry pharmacology and yes even growing.
tgreads and stickies were made witj real time and effort put into them, fpr a reason..so people could go back and learn. everytime its repeated you get a less effort watered down version, the days of growing knowledge being a bit of a secret are gone. so yea this forum now is mostly just like minded people chillin chattin. i still help on occasion.
but just yesterday a dude was over feeding (n tox) had all sorts of problems and talking crazy.
n tox locks out ca, insoluble ca in concentration will combine with p (causing p def) forming an insoluble calcium phosphate. i say foliar to get it to the plant until you can burn off some chlorophyll and fix the root zone. etc etc.
you get a bunch of newbs that maybe if lucky have completed 5 harvests.. i chill with people that can tell yiu where it originated by the plant structure, can tell you odor and shit too. its rediculous. you have idiots with a grow house thinking they doin it cause they have a little perp grow or pull a 20 pack each season.
thats why people say its gone to shit. and they can be so adamant they drown out actual pros when giving advice. not trying to toot my horn. there are lots of us.
for future refrence. of any of yall want to know anything about a central/south american sativa, or if you even actually have one. hit me up. same goes for anything as far as pharmacology goes. without giving info im head of my dept and well known in the u.s. professionally. developed many synthetic cannabis products..etc
so shit? no
you just jave to know where to look, and what your looking for
