G. Morning everyone. If you would kindly go to Green Mans Seedbank Update (seedbankupdate.com) and click on Cure you would find more info relating to what I copied below. (This is def not all the info so please read the whole thing before testing. I don't want to hurt anyone's grow.) I did read the prior posts so sorry if I'm inadvertently repeating what has been said.

"You will find some concentrated flavor extracts in the grocery store. Vanilla extract is cheap and readily available, so is lemon extract (cooking variety). Other extracts can be found in stores that specialize in baking supplies. With hydro put the flavoring in the water between 1 and 3 hours before harvest. Anything longer will produce harmful bacteria. Plants draw up solution fairly quickly, one hour should be enough for some of the flavoring to reach the top. Three hours should not be enough time for bacteria to grow. Dump out the solution right afterwards and clean out your unit. Use plain water for a few days before harvesting your hydro crop so all that will be in the water will be the flavoring. Soil growing is easier. Let the plant dry out a little before applying the solution. Do it in the watering just before harvest. Give your plants plain water for the last two weeks and near the end do this process. When the plant is somewhat dry and craving water, give the plant the water with the flavor when it's a little bit thirsty and it will draw it right up.

It does not seem to say anything about flushing the soil after putting the flavoring in. But I'd flush with some water before harvest. Either way jst read the whole article and make ur own decision. Peace

This thread is full off hate and misinformation. Stay away if you dont like it, dont post. Anyhow, 100% for a fact adding sugar will help a plants fruits or flowers and will stall the leaves.

However injecting is new and there is no proof that the damage done to the cells of the xylem and phloem would be less than the goo done by the sugar. Keep in mind though that growers actually snap over branches and support them and they continue growing fine, so why would a puncture hole hurt? Maybe a little, BUT thats why you have to inject in a petiole with no leaf, that way you never damage the plant. SO lets not argue that point anymore. You will not damage the plant. unless you add wayyyy too much sugar.

Next in actual scientific studies (i have links) plants are injected with syringes (not for the purpose of growth though). So this proves that you can inject plants safely.

Also we used to think roots couldnt absorb large molecules like sugar (c6h1206) we though they could only absorb small ions (N+) or (Ca+). But of course we were wrong. They can absorb large molecules, just very slowly, slower than the rates that the stomata on the leaf absorb large molecules.

So roots CAN absorb sugar just not well, plus molasses has sulfur and other micro nutes. Lamp

Oh and orange juice how old are your plants? If they are in veg then why are you injecting with flavoring agents, you gonna smoke the leaves? LOL

idk. depending on how many females i get. post more when i find out the sex. i have a total of 5 babies as of now.
Hey while we are in the advanced room, i should tell you that ethylene gas is released by cannabis and is one of the precursors to female sex.
Ethylene supplementation with gas tanks show to enlarge greenhouse fruits, and ratio of females in certain plants.
The reason why fruits ripen off the vine and eventually spoil is b/c of the ethylene they release. Bananas release some of the highest concentrations.
So i would recommend that you put bananas under every plant in the pots. But watch for fruit flys, they wont hurt the buds but they will piss you off.
Ive done this myself and got more fems than usual, 4 out of 5. Could have been coincidence. Lamp.

Also if you do use the bananas turn off the fan for about a half hour a day to really get them suffocated in the ethylene.

jacking your plants up in the junkie style of old Ring Dang do sounds like a bad idea.
however if you want to play the flavor game

i would Start here

i have never used this product as i kind of feel it is cheating. i mean seriously people i like my bud to smell like i just pleasured a skunk with it. what use do i have with perfumes .

now if you could come up with A strain with 20% Thc and no smell at all?
then your doing something impressive!!



oh and one more thing.
i would imagine any thing you add to the water would likely cause a fair amount of ph shift. so i would watch it closely in addition i can only imagine it would take you so much blueberry to get the flavor to move your shit would cost 1000 and ounce.
what you may want to start with is blueberry extract.

Anybody think you could lace a plant by injecting it with heroin or something?? If anybody tries, just make sure you got enough to continue through to harvest, because a plant probably won't produce too much if the dragon gets too far ahead of it..
