additives to growing

someone that I do not really know but grows a lot more then me said he puts the drink "ensure" with one can per 1 gallon of water to make his plants grow like crazie. Has any of you readers tried this and does it work????


thanks in advance

 

I haven't tried it, but IMO, for what it's worth, is this sounds like a bad idea.

 

Ensure is a nutritional suplliment for ppl, not plants.

 

How does this guys weed smoke/taste/smell? Indoor or outdoor?


I once had a hydro store employee once tell me he used to mix half a can of Welch's Grape frozen concentrate per gallon come final flush time. Havent tried it yet. Get the picture...?

 

Ha Ha Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm Maybe that what I need to give these eight month old clones I have sitting here a little ensure!!

We have an inmate that gets a can of Ensure every 3am. It's meant for the elderly.

 

8 month old clones? I'm sure they have lost their vigor.. time to start some new plants bro

 

I am growing indoors, a heated enclosed section of my garage, an all of a sudden I am starting to have dozzens of these small f what looks like knats I think. What would be a good way to get rid of these???

 

The best way to get rid of those is to


:F-A-Q:

 

Urinate on them

 

fungus gnats, Im sure its in the FAQ.


as for the ensure, I dont know what it is, from the sounds of it its because Im not old like some other people on here. :kidding:


I have heard of cutting the end of a pumpkin branch that has a pumpkin and keeping that end in milk and it makes the pumpkin grow like crazy, ya never know what may work but never test on more then 1 plant.

 

Insure is a weight gain drink, usually given to the elderly who have trouble keeping food down or little appetite. It's mostly proteins and fats, with a high amount of minerals. I'm not sure about vitamin content. But, if I remember right, it's got an insane amount of calcium and iron for a plant.


Adding compounds that the roots can't take up and that either decompose slowly or require the wrong kind of animal life to decompose is NOT recommended. Ensure may be only 2 bucks a can, but it's not worth fucking up a crop to try. If you want to try it anyway, put it on a test plant that you don't especially care about and see if I'm right.

 

no insurance


That the ensure is good idea. As far as fungus gnats Stop over watering.

 

Marty, it sounds like you are still learning so I will recommend for you to go and read through the FAQs section. You will learn alot there.


Hank and CC both of you are experienced growers and could have answered that question and still tried to be funny, instead of the way you guys responded.


Thanks for a proper response from greenjah, SirStynkalot and mt.king. :good job:


Remember GK is a place to learn about the thing we like doing best, growing MJ. :redbong:

Thanks for dragging me into your opinion MrG.......Ive seen you make pointless comments to my man, peace

 

Its not a opinion its a fact. Well established members would probably not take those kind of comments with any offense considering the source.


Point being although we would like new members to read the Faq before answering a barrage of questions they would not have to ask we would not want them to take offense now would we running to some other forum and saying jesus those growkind guys are pricks and wont answer or help anybody new!

And guys really.....I could give two squirts about anyones opinions on my comment, it was a direct comment towards nothing after reading a popular thread a few weeks ago about UREA and its effects on plants in outdoors or otherwise and trust me, PLENTY of nonsense comments came from that discussion....I still love how you guys keep eyes on me in all ways, even drumming up a comment on a thread from a month ago and not even to say anything worth while but just to "tell me how it is", i call it flexing your athority........you know who else flexs their position? LEO...may be time for a career change, neva know
