Hydro Nutrient Challenge

Hey Earl,

Massive kudos to you bro for attempting such an ambitious and scholarly scheme. We could of ALL benefited greatly by such knowledge. But we'll probably only be able to draw some basic, sketchy conclusions, since it seems almost everyone, pathetically, put up their idea of a token journal, posted a few times and then slunk off, clutching their seeds in their greedy paws. A wise suggestion might be to try it again (if you still have faith in these people) but with a strain that is mediocre or average. What you offered this time might of enticed some insincere people to make out like they wanted to put in the effort when all they had on their minds was the seed strain. What was it, a White Widow crossed with something nice , hehe. That was a bad move - you'll probably admit now in hindsight. People just tend to not be very genuine. Perhaps we can blame Darwinism-style evolution for this fact. They play purely for themselves, while talking and even acting as though they care about others around them.

Sorry for the ramble...
.... to the persuit of all knowledge related to Marijuana !!!

Go play in traffic, dipshit. Flaming a well-known member of this site on your 2nd post is not a good strategy.

hahahaha

want strain this game?

im like fletch...im game!!

If there's a round two, I'm in. I have a grow under my belt now (almost), and I can keep a good journal.

I'm in for the next round. I have been helped so much by RIU, I am ready to give BACK.
Anyone else?

in the process of getting my first grow under my belt.
love the idea. hated reading first try failed due to human greed.

If your grow is underway by now where is it? I want to follow the grow but I cant seem to find it. LINK PLEASE, also I got a few DWC grows under my belt as well so if you are legit sign me up to for your next grow.

Sorry for the double post but I read back and found 2 links for the current grow. Ok first problem he only mentioned 2 growers doin this, 2nd problem the forum is on Cannabis Culture website. Call me an asshole but thats kinda rude and disrespectful to us RIU people. Kinda like takin a hamburger into McDonalds and asking them to fry it for ya if you ask me. If this place is good enough to troll for people to do your experiment then it should be good enough for you to post some results here and not try to drag everyone elsewhere, Just my 2 cents worth, probably all it is worth too. LOL

earl is a frequenting and very respected member of this site.......

i dont think he is tryna drag anybody to another site

kinda hard over the internet eh?

Nope LoudB is right on this one Earl is an established RIU member and its ok to post educational links to other sites. Hell Im a link posting whore and if I hate your site I will put a link and suggest people go and shit in thier mailboxes til they close down..Now we gonna do this challeneg again and if we do I got dips on Fox Farm nutes

Think this challenge is a fail. There's too many variables beyond the nutes to make a best pick, but I'd still like to see at the end a scoreboard or some shit.

factors such as?

Factors such as ph fluctuation, temp/himidity fluctuations, even the type of bulbs being used. Variances in water aeration levels. Some qualifier may have a small res with a lot of ph fluctuation with a 80F daytime res in a 95F box with 15% humidity using the light he got with the ballast, he's not gonna do as well as the guy running a 20gallon res with a chiller, a humidifier, Horti Lux bulbs, and superb ventilation. What if someones power died for a day and their plants were shocked by overwatering... bla bla bla.

i just read this post and i like this challenge...if there is a second round let me know. i have four outdoor soil grows done and just started my 5th hydro. grow. i'm doing trainwreck by greenhouse seeds in hydro. Red dragon and lsd by barney's farm outdoors...oh and lastly i just set up a new indoor soil room that i have auto ak-47 by lowryder and the church by greenhouse growing....i mostly want to try this challenge to see how good at growing i am (novice or expert) let me know if i would qualify if there's another grow.

All the factors you listed are grower controlable thats the challenge. You get the same seeds pick your nutes and then use your skills to grow the best plants. Nothing unfair thier. As with any grow a huge chunk will be on your skill but all would have the same startup seeds and same gentics just show what your favorite nutes used in your hands can do. Im kinda amped for a second try if it happens. I want to win a free hat or something

If he is legit I apologise. I just been seein him in other forums too and I was hoping to really follow this challenge and instead I saw nothin. I would love to participate in future challenges. I keep pretty detailed journals and even post videos. Keep me in mind!

so just because you frequent other forums, you arent legit?

All I am sayin I am on other forums with the same challenge goin on at all of them. But still there isnt any updates on the grows there either. Dont tell me you wouldn't question this too? No need to be a dick dude. I already aplolgised.

it was only a question

It all depends on the people who get invited to particiapte. There are alot of flakes who get the free seeds then dont do thier agreed to part. Earl has been here long enough now that if he really wants to do this again he knows he can pick a good group of us who will do it right this round but he has to be ready to so he can go right along.
