I love pop
annnnnnnd rewatching again….
Great listen. Thanks.
Can we get a discussion going on how people crop steer with Blended instead of pro line? Do you guys talk about it on any other episode?
Crazy podcast. Can’t thank you 2 enough. I’m 22 years old and learned a lot from that
Hey just FYI, I believe there’s mistake on your “note” for pwEC on P1 irrigation strategy form. I could be mistaken. But I think you wanted an INCREASE when doing P1 in Veg?
Btw love the podcast. I learn a lot.
first time in this channel listenig to this video. all very inetresting until 3 hrs and 30 min. he mentiones him opinion about mRNA vaxxs and suddenly the guy does not sounds that much inteligent than the rest of the podcast.
Why doesn’t he mention that he’s one of the rich kids that’s actively ruining the weed scene? This clown can’t grow bus to save his life, and it notorious for abusing his employees
Sick life story. Big up from Germany
His story sounds so unrealmovielike ITS crazy. Nice Episode
Dope
Disgusting amount of ads great video tho. All these ads will discourage people guaranteed
This is hands down one of the best podcast episodes Ive ever watched, and not talkin only weed stuff.
Damn good podcast. Sincerely enjoyed this conversation guys
Your greenhouse packs should be getting double more than the homie doing indoors. You can not replicate the sun, and with all parameters in check, you should be killing it.
Mars Volta performing jazz?! Damn son that is the dream right there!
Dope interview thank you so much for sharing. None Shall Pass is legendary.
Wow what a great episode. Love to hear Nelson come back a dive more into gardening techniques. Where can we find this lighting document he put out?
Thanks Nelson for your story though only a few paragraphs of the novel
Awesome conversation here. The industry is blessed to have both of you guys
The amount of rabbit holes this podcast has brought me down is epic. It's all the little comments between the cracks that are pure gems.
This is the best “grow” podcast ever!! I tried a couple and always find me switching to this one. Real life stories make this podcast more interesting and mir relatable!!
Greetings from Germany, crazy to see where you guys made it to and we are just getting started!
Awesome story
Amazing content. Nelson always delivers. He has well thought out answers and responses that truly resonate with so many people in our community. He talks of how the shadows have shadows in the murky despair of the Cannabis Industry, yet keeps it motivational and fun. Cannabis is a strange landscape in which we navigate in the now, not unlike before, but there are still those of us looking ahead, to improve upon the plant. My father, who recently passed, was one of them. He was well versed in the field of Bovine Scatology, and he used that knowledge and wisdom to help further develop the plant beyond most of Today's standards. He strove in his mission to find the sportiest sport plant that ever sprouted, and he was at the point of his colchicine reproductive dissemination, in alignment with and to the parameters of simple backcrossing filial generations, a splicing, if you will, back and forth to find the genetic material fitting for the projects needs. It was that inherent combination that brought forward the Dodecaploid that had an astronomical 87% THC,. Many are aware and know of the Diploid and Triploid, along with the fact that wheat being a simple Hexaploid of a specific kind of grass, yet the Dodecaploid cannabis plant was different. It has yet to be seen. It could grow giant THC crystals covered in regular crystals that were in place of the calyx and hairs. Imagine a bunch of clear, sugary grapes with 5 bladed leaves. A marvelous sight to see, indeed. An absolutely fantastic plant. It's appears as stem, leaf, and crystals(with crystals). Astronomical in all evaluations. Simply astounding. The effect is being described as "magical" and "unreal". Psychedelic euphoria at it's finest. The thing is, you can't clone it, you can't breed it, so that is were we stand. I need to get more scientifical and equate the developments from the research. We'll see…… Anyways, good job, great show, keep it up!
I'm at 90g/sqft last three grows… gettin there!
