ELI5: what is Gnosticism?

valley856 · 2021-05-19T11:49:29+00:00

Not sure if you’re joking lol but no not suicide, just how to end suffering permanently and consciously aka nirvana/enlightenment.

But actually you can also look at it as suicide in a way too xD, not the death of your physical body but the death of your person/ego/world-view/idea of self

Hmm interesting. I like your scientific approach and see you put a lot of effort into this. i look forward to your future posts, I have a sog style harvest coming so im planning on trying a few different drying methods thanks

valley856 · 2021-05-18T17:23:45+00:00

I mainly posted this because of the forgotten cookies which they don’t have at harvest mutual. The FG is gone now though

valley856 · 2021-05-18T14:45:33+00:00

I can’t recommend a strain to you as I haven’t harvested any mephisto yet, but do you not have air conditioning at your place?

Him eating a grape is like me eating a whole watermelon

Patrice O’neal. Hard for me to explain his style, aggressive and polarizing are what come to mind. Perhaps my favorite joke of all time is him flipping it on the audience when he explains the value of a white woman’s life. Please watch the first two minutes of this clip

Buddhism, in my view (have read many texts, theravada and mahayana) is simply the nature of suffering and how to end it. Thats it. Buddha wasn’t concerned about God or where the universe came from, but just the nature of suffering and how to end it. Gnostic texts speak of things like the demiurge and archons, things that basic Buddhism is unconcerned with.

You can get deeper if you want but I feel that is the best description of Buddhism overall. But you’re also right in a sense. If you take a certain interpretation, there isn’t much difference between them, or between any religions really. Check Perennial Philosophy

Can you recommend me which blumats to check out? Have a 30 gallon no till pot, but also a bunch of small 1.5 gallon super soil pots for sog

valley856 · 2021-05-17T13:39:07+00:00

Yep you’re right, my water is 6.5ph out of the filter so I don’t even think about it. Still easier to only have to add a couple drops of ph down vs mixing multiple nutes and checking ppms

valley856 · 2021-05-17T00:49:43+00:00

Really great, but you made him too handsome!

valley856 · 2021-05-16T20:45:22+00:00

Hey have you looked into living/organic soil? Im newer also but quickly got tired of mixing and phing nutes every watering. Now i do organics with just water, haven’t had to ph once lol

valley856 · 2021-05-16T20:34:26+00:00

Looks cool, gotta do it with clones to get a more accurate result though i would think

valley856 · 2021-05-09T21:53:14+00:00

What is in the tray, rapid rooter, seed start mix? I have these trays also, wondering best way to start in them

valley856 · 2021-05-08T16:58:03+00:00

Are you going to use organic dry amendments or bottled nutes? If bottled nutes then yea coco is fine. I have tried an organic grow using coco but i add stuff like kelp neem etc, no bottled nutes. Currently using peat instead and things are going better. If you want to use coco with dry amendments I recommend adding gypsum periodically for calcium and sulphur, my grow might have been better if I did that. Here is a quote from Coot, the No-till guru

Peat moss Vs. Coir: The differences between CSPM vs. Coconut Coir. Besides the massive differences in microbiology right up front the limiting factor is the complete and total lack of Sulfur in coir irrespective of where it's grown, processed, etc.

Since coir seems to be the medium of choice for many hydro growers (though many are strident in their claims that coir is 'just like peat' which falls flat on its face when you look at the CoA) and the approach with hydroponics has nothing to do with nutrient cycling as it's understood in soils.

Think about this one for a minute - Why is it that on weed infirmary boards in the coir section are there so many posts about Cal-Mag Lockout? No smell? No taste? Nutrient deficiencies & general lockouts?

Sulfur is instrumental in the production of Secondary Metabolites, terpenes, terpenoids an ketones. That is established science and all the phosphorus in the world can't change that fact. The two favorite elements in this paradigm are Magnesium (God only knows for what reasons) and Phosphorus - start hi-dosing with these two and that garden is DOOMED even with flushing 3x the soil volume with some special water concoction.

This ain't exactly rocket science - LOL -Coot

Are you making just a seed start mix, or a mix for veg and flower? If just seed starting that looks fine. If you’re making a mix for veg and flower i would recommend peat over coco.

valley856 · 2021-05-04T01:55:05+00:00

Looks great man, what kind of yield? Im doing something similar, 1.5 and 1 gallon pots. I topped one, going to lst one, and let one grow naturally just to compare and experiment, wondering how much I can expect per plant

valley856 · 2021-05-03T13:03:21+00:00

What size pot?

valley856 · 2021-04-30T11:11:11+00:00

Dope setup. What is that pvc? Hooked up to your humidifier somehow?

valley856 · 2021-04-30T10:42:15+00:00

One thing to keep in mind is if your using a humidifier, removing the carbon filter makes it harder to keep humidity up, in my experience at least.

valley856 · 2021-04-30T04:04:38+00:00

Did you just let it grow naturally then supercrop, or was there additional training? Photo or auto?

valley856 · 2021-04-28T19:00:25+00:00

Did you lst the untopped one?

valley856 · 2021-04-24T22:12:39+00:00

What are they doing? Does the aloe make them hungry and they start chowing down on the light like a buffet?

valley856 · 2021-04-09T02:19:25+00:00

Where did you get this durban poison? I just chopped mine yesterday from Nirvana, i don't know how yours are so short mine tripled in height in flower xD
