I digress today as I read all of the struggles we have as growers. Lighting, nutes, Ph, temps, etc. etc. But when I was a freshman in college MANY MANY moons ago, I planted a seed of some dirt weed. I placed it in some soil I got from a local store (don't even know if it was miracle grow but it may have been) and I grew it on my dorm windowsill like a house plant 'cause I thought it was pretty. I never gave it nutrients, just water when the dirt got dry. The plant was the biggest most beautiful plant I have ever grown. It stayed in veg ofcourse since I did not even know then that I could flip its lighting cycle and make it flower. When my freshman year was done I went to visit my mom for the summer and she was NOT having it, so she made me get rid of it. I say all of this to say that it occurs to me that the more educated I have become I have had great grow successes of course, but also many failures trying to do the newest thing I have read. Plants were designed to grow ... period. We can make enhancements, etc. to get a bigger better final product, but at the end of the day find BALANCE and allow your girls to do what they were naturally designed to do ... GROW! We love our babies so much that at times we can LITERALLY love them to death! BALANCE, PATIENCE, TLC, without overdoing anything makes for a happy, healthy, successful grow. Hell, it can be downright spiritual if you chill and let it. Peace and much grow love.
