    Topping

    Learn about HST (heavy stress training) if you use the SCROG. Your plant will want to have one main stalk of buds, but by keeping the top stalks at an even height, you can have more stalks giving you a greater yield. HST is scary at first but is easy when you have done it a few times. Pick...

    Topping

    I have been topping my plants when the leaf nodes start alternating instead of coming out in opposite pairs. Later in the plants 1/2 or 2/3 point of final height, i use a screen of green (scrog) to weave the plant tops through a horizontal grid. At this point. I have already quit topping for a...

    There is a Brit group testing a vaccine on 12 human volunteers. There are also vaccines being manufactured as we write. Bill Gates is funding 12 simultaneous vaccines for manufacture. When one is finally approved, there won't be lag in ramping up manufacture, straight to shipping. Gates is...

    St1. Your words say you are behaving and want to walk away, but your actions make your words a lie. Why do you continue to ignore the mod rules? You have your island and the entire rest of MJP. But still you have to break basic rules of getting along.

    MJP has a lot of threads. Why are some people being bull headed about forcing their way to the single one that is off limits. I'm tired of listening to the BS. Chill.

    Ya make it too hard. Look for the scorched smelly electronic part. Spray it with liquid CO2. If it works, replace the burnt stuff. They run on smoke, ya know. When the smoke leaks out, they quit working. The last step of a repair is to exhale smoke on it to refill it. Cutting edge 386...

    When the chipsets that needed the specialized robotics came out, my fix-it days mostly became a DOS basic programming horse buggy repair skill. LED repair and builds are a possibility that i had not thought of until now.I Bye. I gotta research

    SA: Assuming its not tubes, I get good results troubleshooting by firing things up and spot spraying the hot spots with CO2. The freeze spray cools the semiconductors so they work again for a minute. Then i decide whether to solder and replace, or just chuck it out. It depends on the size...

    Good morning. I am slow to wake today. The weather should be good. I'm getting spring fever. I've put off planting kitchen herbs for outside. I better do that today. I might have to slip in another few for seed strain supply purposes. Stay safe and keep healthy.

    Trying to figure some things out

    Big, in answer to your original question, in general, extra nutrients do not cancel out other nutrients as I understand growing. Then, I pointed to pH lockout, which is one way to stop nutrient uptake by plants. I am not an organic grower, but have my hat off for the long time growers that...

    Trying to figure some things out

    PH could do that.I In the growing hints area, there's charts showing how nutrients get blocked when the pH is wrong. Multiple deficiencies are one indication, if they are all on the high or low range of pH.

    Trying to figure some things out

    Normally, nutrients add up. If you have a great soil, adding extra nutrients can be too much. It gets more complicated in other ways though. Some of the bacteria in the soil will work under one environmental condition (oxygenated), while a different set of bacteria thrive under opposite...
