how to stronger plants

[darealbrain]

i dont know maybe i should have sarted a grow log but i dont have a camera.so iwanted to tell you guys what been going on with my grows.i have been growing ww from day one.i think this is the most important part what ever your growing start with one type.grow the plant in your conditions whatever that may be it doesnt matter.learn what stresses your plants but try to keep things as simple as possible.water only when the plants need it,feed only when they need it with very small amounts of nutrients,transplant only when the plants are root bound and see how the plants react.keep in mind that it takes a plant a long time to get use to following and doing what you want it to do so just take you time veg them for a long time.the time is really up to you i have been using the winter time to do this then put the huge plants outside to flower after taking clones.during this time that the plants are veg stress them to see what they do(lst,topping,whatever your hearts desire).after and only after putting the plants thru all this stress find the best looking and strongest plant to make your mom and take clones.you will have alot of brances so take how many clones you want.then do the same thing with all the clones(stress it,water only when need be,feed very lightly only when need be).keep doing this over and over taking the strongest clones and making them moms.by the 3 or 4 cycle of this you will start to see your clones growing faster and faster.they are now use to the conditions of your growroom.you will now have strong plants that are growing how you want them to grow.with strong plants you can do anything you want just about and they will take it.i have been studying this for awhile and reading all the problems that others have and you know what they all have in common?the grower is always over doing something.we need to slow down.allow the plants to get use to our conditions.if a grower over feeds his plants then the plants are going to let you know.one time you may get away with it but keep doing it youre gonna kill your plants.think about it if i was to overfeed on monday and it takes two days for the soil to dry out is that enough time for the plant to say hey thats too much?so what happens when i look at them and go yeah they like that and do it again?when the plants start to lockout,show deficencies,and stress from us over doing things i think that those are what started the PLANT PROBLEMS THREADS.just like the million my plants leaves have started to die during flowering threads.well what did you do?you took the N out and pumped up the so called flowering nutes.i know alot of people say oh they suppose to do that,but are they?if you payed attention during veg what did you do to keep the plants that deep green color and why?okay now their flowering and saying hey i need something and you just gonna ignore them.i see alot of people who have to hold their buds up cause the stems are too weak.what could we do so that we no longer have to do this?i say the same things we did while they were veg.now i am still learning i dont know everthing im still a newbe.but can it be that we are triing to spead up the flower process to fast.can it be that during the strech we need to do something to slow the plants down where the stems arent thinning themselves out thus they can hold up the buds.we are growing great weed right now but with all the technology we have why our weed isnt getting any better?it shouldnt be any question on whether the weed back in the day is better than what we have now.but thats just my point of view and i wish i had a way that i can show you guys some of the work i have been doing.it would have been great if i had some pics of my first plant and let you see my transformation.these plants are awesome and if you give them the time they will adapt to anything.but if you just keep starting over every time you are really missing out.you can make your plants get better and better but it takes time.every time someone smokes my crops all they can say is man your getting better,but its not me getting better the plants are adapting and getting better.i dont tell them this though. so slow down and keep it simple.

Any way you can condense all that?

[darealbrain]

yes im sorry.the message is to keep things simple and you will not have all the problem.the content of the thread is a guide to get stronger plants.plants that can support bigger buds.if only you knew all the work i have put into this study the thread is nothing to read.but if you want stronger plants please take the time to read it and let me know if im missing something

[Slevinkal]

No worries. I got the point.

I only asked because I have a 27" monitor and its still hard to read one huge long paragraph without any breaks in it. It gets jumbled quickly. I can only imagine how hard it'd be to read on a 13" screen...

Nice info though

i think what he is trying to say. is we cause any of the stress factors that cause many of the problems we have when growing. if you just start the plant out in the pot you intend to grow it then there will be no need to transplant it and no need to cause unnecessary stress
i have also found that many times we over look the enviromental conditions when we have a plant problem. its not the ph its not the mg soil we are using. if we grow a plant for 8 weeks and then have a problem it is most likely we let it get to hot or we moved the light closer thinking we helped.
the humidity might be lower because we added the extra fan thinking we were helping. so before you go asking anyone why my plants is yellowing or wilting or such look at what you did over the last few days and i am sure you will hae changed something and that is the cause of the problem we stressed the plant.

[darealbrain]

yes im talking bout that and more.making your plants adapt to your growing conditions and working with only one type plant

i see alot of people worry about ph becuase that is written down in the holy grow bible. i see that people seem to think that i read it and it must be true and thats the only way it can be done.
if you begin a plant from seed and grow it in a ph 7 it will still grow lush and green and flower just like you hope so. 6.5 is optium thats not saying it will not adopt to grow in the enviroment we give it. the trick is to create a steady enviroment. to keep all of the same thru out the grow and our plants will still grow and make us happy.
when new growers start and tell me well i read this i and that i tell them yes that is the optium. but lets just get the basics. most city water has a ph of 7 and it is just fine for any plant grow in since it is nuetral. cant go wrong with nuetral.
ph would come more into effect if i were to grow a plant ata ph 6 and then give you the plant or a clone and you tried to grow it in a ph 7. then it is going have stress and scock and mostlikely some root burn.
other than that the best way to get started is to just try and learn. with each grow we get better and better results not because we know more it is because we are to create a more stable enviroment.

[darealbrain]

you nailed it.thats exactly what im saying.and just like they adapt to that if you stress them they will adapt to that.but only if you keep growing from clone after clone will you truly start seeing the results.stronger plants,great growth,and all the other things that the enhancers and other things suppose to do.i havent got to the point i wanna be before i even start using enhancers yet.i want to focus on the plant then the other stuff.i believe if we all started doing this we will produce much much better buds.

im also triing to build my plants up to where they can fight off grasshoppers.on the group i have now im feeding neem oil to see if that would give the plants some kind of taste that they dont like.i dont know if this would work or not but anythings worth a try

[darealbrain]

being that i flower outside do you think that i would be better off if i some kind a way prepare the plants for the conditions outside in stead of the inside conditions?

if so that would mean that i need to start over,but at least i would be starting with stronger plants.
