  • I don’t really feel buying more nutes is the answer, your pics look pretty crispy in general (ie too many / too strong nutrients, and/or too hot/dry in the tent). I feel as long as you’re getting an appropriate NPK in various phases of growth, supplementing with calmag if necessary (ie when using RO water) and getting good microbial life in your growth substrate with some occasional bacterial/fungal probiotic supplementation along with blackstrap molasses to feed them is really all you need.

    It’s been a while, but I had banging results in coco coir with only base NPK salt nutes, getting 1/4 lb per plant, for a total of 3/4 lb every 4 months in a 4x2 tent with a 320w HLG LED array was my usual cycle.

    Most nutrient lines are overpriced and unnecessary IMO, getting training, pH, and environmental conditions (especially vapor pressure differential) is where it’s at. Most people don’t need more nutes.









  • Antivirus didn’t really exist in my script kiddie days in the very early 00s. It was awesome to put Sub7 on someone’s PC, fire up their webcam, pop the matrix screensaver type hack on, chat to them, then open their CD drive. Freaked some friends out really good that way.

    After they would log off, I’d pull their AIM credentials and hop on their screen name , message one of their buddies, and ask them to “test out this screensaver I just made”. I’d get their IP from the AIM direct connection used to send the file. Rinse and repeat with the next list of AIM contacts. I had a dozen infected people across the country I didn’t know at all. Never did anything particularly malicious but man it was fun.

    Now that I’m thinking about it, I did nuke the HDD of a friend of a friend with a .bat script called hard drive killer pro, that was malicious. That’s the only one I regret doing in retrospect. I just wanted to see if it worked, they didn’t get back online for a year or so.

    Edit: I found the hard drive killer, wow. Munga Bunga’s Hard Drive Killer Pro Version 4.0. I’d love to know how this worked, apparently it could cause physical damage. Not sure how valid that is, but it did completely screw up the PC.
