"Best autoflower" - kind of a low bar, eh?

, JR peters jacks hydro with 2 other parts - calcium nitrate and magnesium sulfate. Several manufacturers use a similar setup. It follows existing knowledge about ingredients, ratios etc.. e.g. ammonium:nitrate ratio for N. Nitrates are faster acting but research has shown there is a synergy that results by including 'some' ammonium-based N. Plants are more alike than different, especially when you compare to physically similar plants - soft-stemmed flowering plants. A shit ton of carryover that often gets ignored by marijuana brands that all seem to want to re-invent the wheel rather than use existing knowledge. People too often blame the plant for their formulas lack of consitency. It's not the plant, it's the formula more times than not. not everything enters the plant via mass flow. Some stuff relies heavily on active transport. Those particular molecules won't benefit from ramping up concentration as the plant 'grabs' it on demand. P/K are like that and probably why studies show that above a certain threshold it does nothing for yield or potency. It's more about availability and not inhibiting other molecules... the way most products are marketed is completely ignoring how fertilizer works and playing off of common misconceptions with absolutely no shame while doing so. It lacks integrity. People being cheated should be upsetting to all.

, Ethos is okay. I'd say avoid the "R1" designated stuff or anything designatingn significant inbreeding. It's not all meh, but in my experience it was fluffier and just average yields. The other strains i've grown turned out a lot better from them. The testers they throw in were a bit scary. the pie face variants were trash but the cherry diesel turned out okay. Paying more than 10/seed doesn't gaurantee much. Just look at anesia. That's been expensive from the get-go and their quality certainly doesn't match the price. The inhouse stuff i bought was a bit higher quality on average, but not with the cost, either. I'd rather just breed the hq phenos i find. the results seem better and you get that F1 vigor.

, I've never grown RQS, so I don't have an opinion. At this point I've given away most of my stash of 'free' or contest seed. I purposefully kept one pack from RQS just to hedge my bets. When it comes time to sow seed, it misses the cut, obviously. Early on you want to be like everyone else with 200 seeds in inventory and growing 5% of them, lol, while the others slowly rot. I'm trying to waste less. e.g. The MSNL were a real interest and they got planted. I am more often impressed by growmies pollen-chucking results than the he average seed seller. Again with last harvest, too, despite a couple weaker plants, as a whole the pollen chucking plants had denser, more heavily coated with tirchomes, and heavier-yielding results than the ethos and anything else i plant next to them the last couple years. The 2 from a growmie with 'godfather og' as 1/2 parental line was nearly 2x the yield of every other plant in that crop and there were decent-to-good results for all but the 2 weak ones i mentioned.

If you are getting yellow new growth that later fills in, probably related to too much P and/or K from the green sensation (can look that up on any leaf symptom chart, not a personal opinion). Depends on the total amount fed, obviously. Those in soilless/hydro could more easily provide a confident assessment on this guesstimate. More than a few are experiencing this. if p is up near 100 or higher or if K is well above 200, it's a good chance this is the cause. Other things impact exactly how high this can go. If something is inhibiting P or K you'll probably have higher values without symptoms, etc.. lots of moving parts to draw a line in the sand, so these are ballpark figures.

I withdrew about 12-13 points worth. C'mon slackers! 😁

, LOL, I loved this song when i was 6-8 years old!!! (whatever year it was released) Growing up in the 80s made me think that synthesizer sound was cool. These contestants have a nearly 20% chance to win (17.7%). That's awesome.. Silver linings and such...

@Mr_big_is_bud_good
, does it have a smiley face? is it single strain? does it have a completed harvest week? If yes to all of that, the website is broken (for you anyway). Everytime they do 'something', like adding the voting banner at the top or revising other stuff, the website inevitably gets buggy. Lots of people have had issues the last several weeks updating or creating a diary. GD touches it, and it breaks like clockwork. I've only been around 6 years, but this trend predates me, lol. It is the status quo. Either someone lied ontheir resume or they just don't hire anyone competent at web administration.

, You don't like the tiny plant in a 10-gallon pot and a guy hovering over it like he's going to do something useful to a plant with 5-6 nodes? bwaahah
