@Scott4901639064 @ArdentPardy @LibsHateUs Poolshock is just powdered bleach essentially. Very basic, carbonated soda is carbonic acid, same deal as baking soda and vinegar, or mentos in soda. Just CO2 Not chlorine gas. If it were TCCA you might get some chlorine gas.

@Riverfishing111 @beegrowing420 Yes. Even the mycelium technically have it present, but in terms of concentration its most abundant in the fruiting bodies, remember these mushrooms evolved this effect to protect their fruits so they can reproduce, so understandably its most concentrated in the fruits.

@beegrowing420 @gmehodlerxxxx @Zaz_knows_all You have to be sterile up to the point where it feels like your being excessive and bordering on behaving like a tweaker. That's the only way to success, and having good materials helps a lot too, good media, good spawn material, and well prepared bulk material.

@RastaKittytwo You technically can reuse it. Just have to distill it until it goes clear again… all the nasty tar compounds usually come out with ease and it all remains back in the flask. Haven't bought any solvents in years at home at least.

@Hornadyfam4 I've seen hermaphrodites from fem seeds before. Never full male, probably a mix up from your seed vendor, you could try contacting them. They might ask you for the plants preferred pronouns though so be sure to ask your plant🙏

@DermotTheDude Have you tried giving them less light?

[DerekPlanellas @DerekPlanellas]

@hashjenni As a chemist who used to work with a lot of organosulfur compounds I couldn't feel clean after work until I took a shower, after a few months you stop being able to smell the sulfur on you but everyone else thinks your a skunk. The smell sticks to you it's awful.

@scubaryan_ There is nothing in the third picture though…

@WhiteSamson420 If it is crab grass they are similar to succulents they are very drought tolerant so your crop will die before it dies if you try to kill it by not watering it which I've done and failed at. They are very cold tolerant and usually people add them as drought tolerant grass subst.

[DerekPlanellas @DerekPlanellas]

@WhiteSamson420 Definitely looking like crab grass, probably had a small hole in the coco bag, pull it out it could be regular grass and it'll be fine but if its crab grass it'll take over in no time that stuff doesn't play 😭 seen it with my pepper and tomato plants all the time

[DerekPlanellas @DerekPlanellas]

@noveltygiftseed @WhiteSamson420 Seen this many times, at least here in California, its usually crab grass, a weed, it grows through angiosperms pull it really early basically as soon as you see it or it'll completely take over and you'll never get rid of it 😭 more of an issue for outdoor though

[DerekPlanellas @DerekPlanellas]

@KippaGrows And I basically mix it as if you were doing like hydro but I just water with it once a week, CaMgS every other week /w NPK, & once a month or sooner as needed I mix my trace minerals in there. Basically just like using prediluted stuff except I weigh salts myself but its cheaper.

[DerekPlanellas @DerekPlanellas]

@KippaGrows I usually mix 3-1-2 for veg, and for flower I do 1-3-2, for trace I do epsomn salt for Mg and S, and for Ca I do calcium acetate (equivalent to egg shells in vinegar basically if you've heard of people doing that), & I got a premix of trace nutrients because it doesn't take a lot

@ana_gllardo Happy late birthday 🫡

[DerekPlanellas @DerekPlanellas]

@KippaGrows @TerpyzGenetics Nematodes? How does that work?? Do you have to feed them and then they fertilize with their poo or what? And is that how they are beneficial I have so many questions 😭

[DerekPlanellas @DerekPlanellas]

@HonestStoner001 @KippaGrows But bearing in mind that these susceptible terpenes/VSC’s are a very small percentage of the material and the concentration of peroxide‘s low enough id say its more than fine. Worst it'll do is make some terpenes not smell or taste anymore, it wont kill you. I think at least 😈

[DerekPlanellas @DerekPlanellas]

@HonestStoner001 @KippaGrows And with cope you form a quaternary ammonium intermediate and you could either beta deprotonate or just snatch onto the nearest partial negative (like an alkene very common in isoprenes/isoprenoids/terpenes), and then lord knows what you've done chemically
