Plant problems AGAIN!

[wayward]

There won't be root rot. It's just growing in a pot with ferts and soil, but what you do is put adequate fert in the pot and never add anything else later. This is the problem people keep running into. I know this cuz I used to be one of those people. Then somebody told me to just put this fert in the container and leave the plant alone, just give water when necessary, and it worked better than any other method of fertilizing. I kept feeding different ferts not really knowing what I was doing. I was just guessing. I was guessing wrong.

Personally...I don't advocate doing it that way unless you have a full understanding of phases of plant development, the consequences and of course...troubleshooting.
I much prefer to have control over what's going in, than to slam all those nutes in at once, and hope for the right balance and stability of the nutes themselves.

Altho I know there are others that use a variation of this method, I'd still love to see your process and results. Why not just get Miracle Grow Potting Soil, lol?
Would sure love to see your growlog, to witness your method in action...but in another post I believe you mentioned something about how useless grow logs are, so I guess we're gonna have to take your word for it. Oh well.

Will let you know on an update. That flushing makes sense. Has happened to me twice at around the same time, initial plant and transplant. Think I learned something valuable for my next run. Thank you, sensi.

what I said was my grow log doesn't exist. Don't keep one; no need to, for me or anyone else. Here we go again with you applying a spin on what you read from me. I think you're insane. By the way, just because your doctor recommended you smoke weed, don't think that's a good thing. The only reason a doctor would do that is because they've given up on you. And if you want to discuss past posts, you made a statement a long time ago that said you knew my original post wasn't designed to upset anyone. So I ask you again, why do you give me so much resistance, if you knew? Also I'd like to know why you call my method "slamming ferts." Do you think anything different takes place in nature? It's in the dirt already.

Guess it's a bit difficult posting a growlog of a non-existant grow, huh?
Wow...what an immature little prick. Someone challenges your technique, and you pick your usual response. Don't get me wrong...I'm not slamming your knowlege...just your lack of it.

Next time you feel the need to tell us what we do and don't need...go fingerfuck yourself and think seriously about the fact that you keep calling everyone else insane, when you are evidentally a few grams short of a full harvest, and from what I've seen...your only purpose is to antagonize.

Below was the post I was referencing: (link included, as the entire topic is typical wayward)

My grow log doesn't exist. I don't keep one. I don't understand the need for one unless you're a breeder, so I just don't do that.

I have researched the web I don't see anything that says Superthrive is full of urea. Unless somebody can show me how it is, I'm going to think it isn't.

I've noticed that the "All you need is here" thread had several hundred views but very few people have responded. There's a few who think I'm an asshole and rude and whatnot, but I'm wondering about everyone else. Hopefully there's some people out there who get what I'm saying. It's not a new method and it may not even be a better method but it works and it's simple.

I used to know somebody who grew a thousand indoor plants. She was also stoned all day, every day, and became very difficult to get along with. She had so much memory loss and confusion, she left a table saw out in the rain ruining it because she forgot she moved it outside....

Thanks however, for pointing out that not only do you not need a growlog, we all don't need one either. Great...all that knowlege, all that work, all those techniques...guess we just need to delete that section of the cannabis grow forums, huh? Anything else you'd like to change in here...we'll all get right on it.

And if you want to discuss past posts, you made a statement a long time ago that said you knew my original post wasn't designed to upset anyone.

You jump in with a desire to change everyone elses grow, yet you show no proof of your experience and truthfully...perhaps I just don't like you, your posting style, and your attitude. Doesn't much matter any more...likely either I'll put you back on ignore, or just follow along, correcting your mistakes as you go. :jointsmile:

if I read your posts correctly, you are watering until the water sits in the bottom saucer ? ... that's a no-no, the soil must be able to completely drain, and dry between waterings ... good luck :jointsmile:

[sirshamus]

Yeah, I was watering until water came out of the pots and filled the saucer about half way. It would be sucked up by the next time I checked on them and I let them dry out before next watering. Sometimes, maybe too long in between waterings cause the soil is bone dry. So, I shouldn't water until I have some runoff into the saucer? Thanks guys!

[stinkyattic]

Shamus! That is your problem right there! I'm so glad you added that part where yousay the water gets sucked back up! All the crap in the saucer is stuff the plant didn't use, and honestly doesn't want. When you go out for BBQ, do you save the pile of bones for your next meal? Nope! They're extra, and you don't need them, and eating all the bones would give you kidney stones anyway! Your plants also don't use everything in their food, and it just runs out the bottom of the pot every time you water heavily- which is GOOD by the way to do on a schedule like RT says, especially with a fert that can be a bit on the 'salty' side- so now we can get you fixed up right.

Put something else under your plants, like broken pieces of brick or scrap wood, in the saucers and put the pots ON that. Never let the plant suck up its own waste water. Keep them up out of the waste and you will see that you have no problems with salting any more.

As for that last post by wayward in regards to a subject with is SOLELY between Rusty Trichome and his physician, unless he CHOOSES to discuss it with the COMPASSIONATE membership- buddy, you just went from a 3 month ban for the insult to the community at large to a permanent one for your profound lack of respect for the well-being of others. This community is obviously not a home for you. Go find another one. I'm disgusted by your insensitivity, not to mention mildly amused by your stupid advice.

Been doing that for about 6 months now...no rocks in the pot, but under it, in the drip-tray. More room for soil, and easier to see exactly when/if water comes out of the bottom. And since the tray isn't attached to pot, easier to empty if gets too much in it.

Thanks stinky...I can't afford another point, and was starting to get pissed.
Sorry for the disturbance, SirShamus. But hopefully your ladies are back on track. :thumbsup:

[stinkyattic]

No worries. I mean, that crap was worth reporting but I know how hesitant growers are to drop the dime lol. I hate seeing haters come on here acting like it's no big thing to be sick and need the weed, and not 'real', and treating normal folks like a bunch of stoner kids smoking behind the dumpster out back of the gas station... I mean, please. Respect.
