To transplant or not??

Rotted its assclowns like you that are the reason so many guys just say fuck it and stop helping out others. Your obviously mr know it all so why are you asking simple fucking questions then and being a cocksmuggler after someone answers. You know what this shits not worth my time. Hope your plant die as well you douche

Just saw above but honestly you showed your colors homie. Peace
 
Balls deep... assclown. Sounds like a trend. You and wayne Got it going on.

I was trying to apologize But it looks like to little too late. I am sorry though And I'm not usually such an asshole. Good luck to you and yours.
 
That is pretty funny cn. I am usually not as big of an a****** as I appear to be. Cropped and wayne do suck but i win the asshole award. Neither of them Did anything to warrant Being insulted. No point in apologizing as what's done is done. Sometimes the internet is an easy place to vent. 20 minutes before i lost it i totaled my truck hitting a deer. I was trying to take it out on cropper. Funny thing is my truck is still totaled. It must be reverse karma. If you see them around cm tell them I do apologize.

Well you hog sucking bag- O- shit. My soil has a good enough tilth so I don't have to worry about it becoming compacted. Use or build a good soil and you won't have to worry about compacted soil. A little sharp sand or gypsum might help you out if your using clay. You did not clarify shit and sound like your reading a book. Is that why you hang around the newb forum.

I should be banned?? Grow up and stop crying. You said nothing of value but I do like your idea of looking at the roots as a way to provide O2. I may well be ungrateful but the original post was NOT asking you how to transplant but WHY not plant in the same pot you intend on finishing the grow in. I don't have any problems with over watering do you?
:dunce:

By the way. What do you think of Jiffy pots. Do you think weed is tough enough to get through that peat or should I peel it away. Thanks again and may you continue to take it balls deep.:finger:

1st) Gypsum does not improve drainage. Adding it to heavy soil will only make it drain SLOWER. Gysum is a binding agent.
2nd)What exactly is 'sharp sand'? Is there such a thing as dull sand?
3rd)The entire interior of a Jiffy Pellet is peat. That outer cover is bio degradable fabric even the most frgile root can make its way through.


Your a Master alright but it aint gardener. And I bet the closest you have ever came to a gardening class is at Home Depot learning how to patch bare spots in your lawn........
 
FOx farm soil ,good and moist with B1 for transplant ,Quit all the damn drama or shot this thread down My thoughts ,Cajun
 
You're right cajun. This thread should be put to sleep. The bulk of the drama is my doing and I really do apologize.

WatchhowIdoit.... Why don't you google uses for gypsum in the garden. You should find it is useful for loosening heavy compacted soil. If you need a reference to find that information let me know
While you're at it google sharp sand which is also known as builders sand. Proven to be very useful in loosening heavy soil. If you need a reference for that 1 let me know.
I said nothing about jiffy pellets, I was asking about jiffy pots. They are not the same thing.

This thread went down the s****** As a direct result of me. I can do nothing more than apologize and I truly mean I am sorry. I been wrong before. I am wrong now. I will be wrong again. I have met the enemy and he is me.
 
Rottedroots, I am quite sorry to hear about your truck. That would set me on edge as well.
I have been inspired to do a bit of reading on gypsum. I've always seen on the bags "improves the tilth of soil" and often wonedered "how?"
I've found out that it's a specific app for sodic (sodium-rich) clay soils, because the calcium sulfate exchanges with marginally soluble sodium minerals. The sodium sulfate washes out, and the calcium-exchanged minerals are less heavy and "slimy" when wet.
Now the soil up here in the 'Stan is a piss-poor rocky laterite clay with plenty of natural limestone. Gypsum works rather less well for calcareous soils like these around me. The only long-term fix is compost, lots of compost, good compost applied often. cn

<edit> I see watchhowIdoit has found something similar!
 
Thanks cn.. Still no reason for me to be a jerk.:-?

WatchhowIdoit did if fact find a link that may suggest Gypsum has less value to hard soil than I had thought. The general consensus is however is not that Gypsum binds up the soil and does not improve permeability. It's a widely accepted practice to add gypsum to tough soils and you will find more stuff if you google it that supports the idea rather than questions it. His link shows me nothing that supports gypsum as a soil binding agent. Apparently cn what you have been reading on the bags is incorrect.

What it really comes down to is none of watchhowIdoits three outlined errors on my part are correct. I do prefer compost outdoors cn but it takes a long time to produce it and the soil and plants use it up so fast it's a never ending battle. I cold compost and hot compost and never have enough. Seems like he is dancing around the truth and cannot support his own statements. The first three pages of his google search disproved his conjections so he went to page four. I will still however graciously admit that I caused the thread to crumble.
:peace:

I'm not sure "sharp" sand can in any way be called a slang term for sand unless pea stone is slang for pepples and rocks which maybe it is. I guess there must be dull sand as well but have never heard of a use for it in the garden. It is again a widely used product for loosening tough soil. I did not know we were talking about where the sand origiated. Of course there are many kinds of sand and I never suggested there was not but "slang" it is not. I know guys who use sharp sand around plants to keep slugs and snails off of them not sure if that works. Another myth I guess.

I have been adding gypsum it to my outdoor trees and woodies for years but maybe it has not worked at all. I can't belive Dirr and all the gardening experts have misled me for so long. It's really hard to empirically demonstrate whether is has or not.

What I'm really watching is WatchhowIdoit failing to admit he was wrong in anyway and is picking fly specks in order to support his views wich are wrong. Anyone can google.
:-?

I was wrong to take this thread down the path I did and I'm usually much more mellow. Everyone is entitled to a brain fart.
 
Rottedroots, three houses and a marriage ago I had the most wonderful two-stage compost pile. I'd let it go a full two years, and the "black gold" I got out the far end was a wonder to behold. At one point I actually combed the neighborhood for those lovely red&yellow drifts of autumn leaves in the gutter. I'd add hundreds of pounds of horse manure ... and see how hot it got. My "personal best" was 177 F or 80 degrees C. You could cook a turkey in that, if you had a sure way to keep the stink off the bird!!
I live in a renter for now, but have hopes to buy a house. Then I'll build another compost setup and seek horse exhaust. It takes over a year to get it to where i like, but the end product is lovely. cn

As for the gypsum ... I've used it myself and probably will do so again. With this Godforsaken clay that'll make a pickax sing ... I will use any leverage I can get, even if a wee bit of superstition is in the nutrient mix. ;)
 
WatchhowIdoiit, Cropper, Wayne..

Please remove the curse. I apologized and I can't do anything more than that. The plant in the pic started dying the moment Wayne put a pox on me and then WatchhowIdoit finished me off with a curse. Let me off the hook and I will be forever grateful. I won't be rude and I will appreciate any advise I get. Give a guy a break it's just the internet.
To forget is human but to forgive is devine.
