Soils ain't soils - Bunnings, supermarkets, specialty stores, compost?

[Pikey]

So what your actually saying is you have NO idea... you just spout shit with NO evidence whatsoever... fucking clown.

 

[Smegma]

I'd smoke buds all year grown in tyres .... What a fucking "good year" I reckon !!

 

[Pikey]

Ahh... I see, so tyres = ph up

Again, you provide NO evidence to the horse shit you have claimed.

 

[Madmick]

Tires break down very slowly. It takes approximately 50-80 years (or longer) for a tire to decompose in a landfill.

But buried tires do not decompose. Ever. If they are exposed to wind and rain, tires will eventually crumble, but they will ruin the soil they sit on.

NO evidence whatsoever

Wow, there's always a shitposter that will never believe anything you say.

Kinetics of zinc release from ground tire rubber and rubber ash in a calcareous soil as alternatives to Zn fertilizers

Everybody stand back!

Watch how agro he's going to get in the next few posts now that he's been lawyered!

He'll literally shit his pants from the butt-hurt as he's typing

For anyone thinking about Bunnings - stay away!

These are results using Tomato, Vegetable & Herb Premium Potting Mix, Coco Peat and Perlite all from Bunnings. Coco Peat and Perlite were both washed before mixing with potting mix

Considerable time was spent removing the woodchips from the potting mix - there were so many!

Pic taken exactly one month since placing the beans in water to germinate.

White Widow Fem on left, Big Bubble Fem on right

Big Bubble is near death. Not sure if it's worth putting her in new soil.

Grown outdoors, photo taken with girls in a lightbox (maybe should've used the blue backdrop) and has a yellowish hue, they're actually a light green colour.

Your just an idiot who's over watered his seedlings.
Nah it's all the potting mix fault you poured to much water on em and downed em!!

Google has failed you again champ. Did you actually read that article, or just go with the first thing that you thought supported your bullshit claims? They're talking about one element (Zn) being released from ground rubber & ash... not whole tyres. It is a very narrow scope focusing on a single component of the tyre rubber and completely ignores the other toxic componants. If you had any understanding of plant nutrition you would know that plants don't feed on zinc alone, which for your education is a micronutrient

 

[Madmick]

All that article referred to was zinc defient soil

It does nothing to pH or is a fertiliser, it would also be a very expensive and environmentally unfriendly when burning yhe rubber to get the rubber ash

This is where problems arise , you are talking about stuff you have no idea about nor can comprehend correctly information that you have read

And I doubt you even read it through , if you did you not the sharpest tool in the shed are you

 

[Pikey]

Oh and don't worry about reporting my comment... I've already done it for you champ

 

[Jaz]

(Zn) being released from ground rubber & ash... not whole tyres.

The only difference between ground tyres and whole tyres is the surface area.
Grounding them up just exposes more surface area to be exposed to the elements.

So yes, plants in Zn deficient soil will absolutely thrive once you add tyres to it after the Zn gets dissolved into the soil.

Nope, I've been down that road before and weighed the pots during the whole process.

In the pic the bubble gum had a recent watering, the White Widow hadn't hit the right weight so I didn't water it.

So yes, plants in Zn deficient soil will absolutely thrive once you add tyres to it and the Zn gets dissolved into it.

That is one of the most ridiculous statement I've ever read. Tell me you know nothing without telling me you know nothing

 

[Madmick]

Yeah no that's not what it said at all

It will simply supply , in time after the rubber has broken down , 10yrs plus ,zinc to soil

More important nutrients than zinc that will make plants thrive in the correct amounts

As Zn is a micronutrient, if you are experience a deficiency, it is more likely that your PH is wrong causing lockout rather than there being an actual deficiency in the soil. But I'm sure a genius such as yourself would have already known googled that champ

100%

I didn't ever say to use tyres as fertiliser. Some people have poor comprehension skills or like to take things way out of context.

Especially the butt-hurt ones always looking to trip you up on the tiniest of details = butt-hurt man syndrome.

Says the numpty that can't even comprehend the article they post as "proof"

Quote from above by yourself, you can't remember I'll remind you

Nah @Micmac aka sistermary that's FAKE NEWS!!! Wait a minute and it'll edit it's post to cover it's tracks

 

[Pikey]

I'm still waiting for your evidence champ (as I'm guessing you are unable to admit you're wrong).

...must be watching youtube now, as google isn't providing the answers it wants.

 

[Jaz]

(I'm guessing you are unable to admit you're wrong).

I'm more than happy to admit when I'm wrong.

I'm also happy to admit I didn't explain properly that whatever chemicals the tyre releases will be beneficial to soils and/or the plants that thrive on those added chemicals. Zn is just one element, S is another, I'm sure there's more.

Also happy to admit it when someone takes what I'm saying way out of context.
