Temps consistently in upper 80s

Are you using CO2? Indoors I assume? Do you run the same strain, or strains every run? Is the heat intentional, or just had success at those temps? Any foxtailing? HPS, or LED?
The temps aren't rediculous, especially if running C02, but consistent upper 80's would seem intentional?
Any time I hear, or read something outside the box I tend to ask questions.

For the one gallon challenge, I have not been measuring any of my nutrients. I count drops if I have time. Otherwise I just give it a little squirt or so, but I dont measure.

I have my red light set to turn on for an hour and a half at sun up and sundown. It overlaps t lights on or of with a half hour of red in the dark cycle. The theory is red light at those time signals the plant to sleep or wake up. More efficient night cycle. Don't know if it works yet

I adjust my plants LST every day.

I dont have a clean grow space. There's soil on the floors of my tents. Leaves from prunings all over the place. I'll do a good scrub after harvest before the noobs get in.

is that red light the only change in the grow technique? How will you evaluate the change and of course report back. Innovative idea.

No CO2, Indoors, Multiple strains, started out unintentional and as result of other excess loads, mainly dehumidifiers because I try to run a perpetual, No fox tailing, LEDs, RH 65%+ and when I didn’t do this the plants were definitely stressed. I like the idea of redlining the plants but CO2 isn’t an option in my current setup. Although I have no doubt it would be beneficial with my current parameters.

LEDs need a bit more leaf temp and will like temps warmer than under old HPS.

First time I'm trying this, flowering cuttings pollinated and put in a blooming biased nute mix. Seems like it might work..just want seeds from them. Cut and pollinated 4/16...still alive and cruising and i keep them in 12/12. See if they can make it the full 4 weeks to get seeds lol.

I wish I was that calculated. I've changed my feed to the TPS nutrient line. I'm phing everything now. I'm defoliating much less. I'm training differently too. My temp and humidity are well controlled this time due to my

Also it's a different soil mix because it was made from leftover soil thats been altered too many times and cut with coco and castings. So I'm not really sure what I'm working with there. And I've only grown in 5 gallons so 1 is a different go too.

Other than that, nothing is changed

Interesting……………………..hope it works.

I have to admit, some of the political stuff I've seen you post over at RIU made my skin crawl with disgust...but every once in a while you displayed sensibility and even handedness...nobody's perfect i guess, me included....
It would be a great additional tool to our trade craft wouldn't it? I'm just totally spitballing the nute GH mix, so far still green and going. I dont know what they want exactly for seed production though.

Just a heads up, once they are pollinated they don’t need 12/12. The seeds will continue to ripen under 24 hours of light. If your female plants show sex in veg and you hit those pistils with pollen the seeds will develop.

Fk yeah baby! I did not know that...maybe i did from those node calyxs during veg producing seeds but i really appreciate this.
What's your thoughts on a cutting being kept in 24/0...having no working root system and 24/0 has me a bit sketched out. Ok ill put them in my 17/7 clone tent and see what's what. Faster seeds sounds good to me.
Edit, i once tested light pollution during flowering and the reveg/failed flowering is all i had to go by.
Edit, yes i know clones root in water under 24/0 but im going for seeds in flower...scared.

If I were you I’d just root the cutting and let the seeds develope, then once rooted the seeds will get more nutrients continue to develop.
I found this out when I was revegging cuts and had some males in the veg room throwing a bit of pollen.
I also sent someone a clone and he gets it and found 3 seeds in a lower pot that was huat showing sex the plant was never in flower. I always thought they needed to stay in 12/12 to develop but I was wrong

Ill guinea pig these, seeing with my own eyes is kind of a hang up for me...to a flaw.

If you are from Missouri this would be perfectly understandable. In this day and age seeing things for yourself is probably the only way to ascertain whether or not something is true. I am following and learning as I go too.

 

[Observationist]

85F during flower, LEDS, no foxtail currently.

 

[N1ghtL1ght]

I smoke the roots, they contain all the best stuff xD
Almost as good as smoking a scorpion tail XD

no, even worse, im texas. lol.

 

[Mudballs]

Update i feel is important, big ones wilting cuz i cant get a humidity dome on them...small ones doing just fine. So im guessing stay on the small branch side if trying this. :(

Or get a big ass humidity dome,lol.

 

[N1ghtL1ght]

Or get a big ass humidity dome,lol.

even a plastic bag like for snacks will do

accidentally broke its mainstem with too swift supercropping :(


and removing fans will also help

 

[Mudballs]

Done, lol...best i got for this size. Just gotta perk em up a bit every once in a while i reckon

 

[Johnlandy420]

I have been daisy chaining 4 tents. Out to the next in for exhaust and it is absolutely increasing CO2 in subsequent tents. Thought was that plants breathe too. Made a post a while ago about this. Feel like I’m on to something dudes. Fans are high to force through tents!
