    Decreasing Light For Increased Trichome Prodution

    This thread is old and someone checked in during 2017...I STRONGLY feel this is a legit concern, and I DO decrease intensity the last 10-14 days of flower....Couple reasons...I am reducing nutrients which make the plants more susceptible to light and heat damage...In nature, there is a...

    Stem Splitting

    Wow...This is blast from the past (way past!) My 1st indoor crop was 1979 under flourescent lighting using soiless mixes...QUICKLY caught on...Over the decades, l've seen and heard it all....I HAVE TRIED this 30 + yrs ago WITHOUT being able to quantify it in any way (yield, potency, trich...

    Dimming Lights Towards End Of Bloom

    Ahh, but there is no constant reading of numbers...once you choose a hydro method, within a cpl crops, you know your plants, the water you use, the nutrients you use and it is EXTREMELY simple...ppl need to pick out some quality nutrients and learn how to use them...if they are all over the...

    Dimming Lights Towards End Of Bloom

    Appreciate the compliment....In the 'crop pic', there are (6) 3 gal buckets....They are Modified Hempy style...Modified as in, a porous grow rock reservoir base with the addition of an airstone in each....A half dozen side by sides (literally side by side), the ones with airstones out vegged the...

    Dimming Lights Towards End Of Bloom

    Maybe I should share an ounce of credibility, without boring anyone....But budporn is rarely boring...current crop pic...Closet is 4ft by 5ft with a 1k light on a mover...My days of LARGER operations are long over....4 current strains, Peyote Critical, Green Crack, BubbleBomb, AND Kong-47, which...

    Dimming Lights Towards End Of Bloom

    Keep in mind that there are now led's that can blast your plants with light...light burn is way different than heat burn from an HID being too close....resins are effected from TOO STRONG of a light as much as heat from being too close, which would be more common with the HID's of course.....I...

    Dimming Lights Towards End Of Bloom

    I usually dont make it a habit to comment on forums 2 yrs old, but very recently, I was in a meeting about the subject of reducing light Intensity the last cpl weeks of flower...SO, Maybe someone will still see this and pick up the tip....I see that some do believe it replicates the fall sun...

    First Grow In Coir, 2nd Week Of 12/12

    Bump up to about 1200 ppms (2.0 ec) for at least another week...they are a little hungry...DTW in soilless needs more than many water hydro systems....they have a mild yellowing and some lower fans even worse....stretch taxes the plants heavily so you need higher nutes the 1st 3 weeks of...

    Hempy Bucket Yields

    I use Dyna products....best single use nute available (IMO)..you can run all perlite, but you water a lot more...vermiculite or Coco coir at 20-25% to Hold moisture....higher amts tend to get too wet....beneficials do much better with some of the absorbant mix like vermiculite...I use Hydroguard...

    100% Perlite Hempy

    I realize this thread is old but HAD TO RESPOND in your defense....there are ppl like Dr.McSuckit in every forum...9 out of 10 times they are frustrated growers that can only grow toenail fungus....straight perlite is used by many growers...I use a 4:1 perlite/vermiculite myself, so I'm 80%...

    The Quest For Trichomes (a Story Of Micro Cultivation)

    Sorry there xjs...could have sworn your telling some newer grower that talking cuttings from the tops of your plants it best because of higher concentrations of auxins....SO SORRY SON, you were the one giving out bogus information, ON THAT SUBJECT...amazing how ppl get very protective when they...

    The Quest For Trichomes (a Story Of Micro Cultivation)

    Just my 2 cents based on 37 yrs of growing....concentration of auxins in a cutting will no effect how it roots...ALL ROOTING HORMONES are auxin based because it promotes rooting on cut ends of many plants...it was developed to assist propagation in harder to root plants to preserve desireable...

    Hempy Bucket Yields

    I would love to see more of these hempy threads get active...I recently went back to hempy after using a variety of other ways...still been about 30 yrs since I ran a hempy...Yeah, it wasnt called hempy then, but BELIEVE it was commonly used...it was the 1st viable hydroponic method before...
