So I’ve read a bit on here and sometimes people use phrases I don’t understand so what I’m asking is for a sort of cannabis industry dictionary and thesaurus.
A list of things and phrases used such as someone said they are doing a reversal they explained a bit but I still don’t get it.
Another said untiled soil ive no idea what this is, so what do amateur and pro growers say
Tillage is the agricultural preparation of soil by mechanical agitation of various types, such as digging, stirring, and overturning. I believe reversal usually has to do with spraying a plant with a solution like c.s. or sts for the productions of seeds
I think Others would find this useful as we don’t know the correct vocabulary to understand others posts.
I think Learning the language of an industry you want to enter is important. There’s plenty more I’ve seen an not understood not just the two words I’ve cited.
Nutes - nutrients or fertilizers
Top, topping, crop, supercrop, monster crop
Defole - defoliation - trimming leaves
Capt. Jacks, azamax - insecticides
FF, fox farm soil - happy frog hf and ffof fox farm ocean forest
Trichs - trichomes = the most beautiful thing in the world.
Flip or flipping - changing your light cycle - usually lowering the hours of light down to 12/12 to induce flowering
Ladies/Girls/Kids = Marijuana plants
Soil = a prepared mixture designed to include the needs of plants for a few weeks.
Dirt = Dead soil
MH = Metal Halide (a kind of lighting)
HPS = High Pressure Sodium (Another kind of light)
LED = Light Emitting Diode (the newest kind of lighting)
Tent = An empty container designed to keep light in and pests and other light out usually made of high density fabric.
the best advice I can give u is when u dont understand something just ask we all didnt understand these terms a few years back but now its like part of our language as it will be with u as u continue to grow
Dry Amendments : To amend soil means to improve it with additional materials. These soil amendments or soil conditioners improve the physical nature of soil. They reduce compaction, aerating the soil to allow water and nutrients to more easily move through it and reach plant roots. Some soil amendments also add nutrients to the soil, help retain moisture and help maintain the correct pH balance. We call this type Dry Amendments. Source Dry Amendments – Humboldt Ag Supply
