What about keeping the light full bore to the end.I’m quietly positive it brings out more trics to protect itself.I think bugbee mentioned to keep the light flatout till the end in one of his vids..
Thats exactly what I do. I don't back down on nutes, light, CO2, nothing. I just control my temps (day and night) with the mini split and the chiller. And of course push the spectrum red.What about keeping the light full bore to the end.I’m quietly positive it brings out more trics to protect itself.I think bugbee mentioned to keep the light flatout till the end in one of his vids..
Can't wait to try out my new light! I haven't even unboxed it yet, not enough room in my house. j/kAnd of course push the spectrum red.
Can you try to find that vid? I've been sea-sawing back and forth with light intensity in the last few weeks my last couple of grows and I would prefer a solid/science based answer.
Your plants are sentient too?Signaling the death of any beloved may not yield the best results.

This seems solid IMO.
I like Moes approach also.

I'll re-watch it tonight.Here, I think this is the one refered to, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvBTsl_gScw&ab_channel=MIGRO
...and not to hijack SLG thread, but I would really like to know @Moe.Red and @Aqua Man thoughts on Bugbee's comments about full light intensity (1000 micromoles) throughout the grow. The comments are around the 47 min mark in the video, just before CO2 discussion and seems to contridict advice given here for light intensity and PAR.
Idk. I'm not a scientamatist.

Until recently I did not have a way to change spectrum without loss of PPFD. So I can only say what my gut says.Good video but doesn't directly answer the question! Does lower light intensity/DLI in the last few weeks of florasion BENEFIT or HARM THC production? Can't seem to find a solid answer or research comparison so until then my lights are back to 100%
And that's why we trust you @Moe.Red you don't need to be a "scientist" to be "scientific" and you are very much the latter
What makes you think they are starving by lowering the pms the last 7 days.you don’t think they have nutrients stored to get them to the finish.they will tell you if they haven’t.. .look how plants grow outside bud.I don’t even feed them the last fortnight or even give then a drink.they will fade naturally using up there nutrients dropping leaves .I dont think none of my grows have dropped one leaf towards the end..that tells me they have plenty of nutrients in reserve..I know it is a joke but plants are responsive so what you do really matters.
Short them food near the end, they die faster? We don't starve old people yet [ thankfully].
Now the fact I talk to and touch mine and the pleasure we both get from it does not need to be explained here!
I can’t seem to find it .or maybe I just think I seen itCan you try to find that vid? I've been sea-sawing back and forth with light intensity in the last few weeks my last couple of grows and I would prefer a solid/science based answer.
I mean.......do you guys do other things too...?Thats exactly what I do. I don't back down on nutes, light, CO2, nothing. I just control my temps (day and night) with the mini split and the chiller. And of course push the spectrum red.
I might be alone here, but I want that plant just happily growing, making sugar, making terps, making cannabinoids like it has all flower, and I sneak up on them and slit their throat before they even see me coming. This traps all that stinky dank goodness in the buds. So I only signal to ripen based on temps and spectrum, then assassinate them when they are not paying attention to what I am doing. I do provide them with a warrior's death tho. And then after trimming, everything but the buds gets a Viking sendoff.
What I think we're all getting in to is something between floriculture, and making ripe fruit........sort of like what wine makers do. Or people who grow difficult, fancy flowers. Then there's chemistry/science, and art. Go all science and forget the art and something is lacking there too. Bring it all together (without going insane) and that's about as good as it gets. There's a limit to just about everything.......once we can grow/produce huge, soaked with resin buds, with 25%+ THC......the genetics being partially out of our hands, until we own whatever strains/varieties we want, and if we want to, breed our own. So then we try to push out the limits.......when it was about crossing varieties 40-50 years ago to get THC levels from 17% to 28%, cut flowering times by 5 weeks, and do the "grows like an Indica, high like a Sativa" thing, the improvements have been leaps and bounds. At this point, where are we going........for what added levels of effort? If it's about going to 40% THC? Well, can we? If so, do we really want/need to? We can make a 13% stout, 15%......or triple IPA. But do we want to? Then I can't drink more than a couple of glasses, or it starts tasting like you just added booze to a 10% IPA. My tolerance is nothing like it used to be, beer or weed. One good hit of strong weed and I'm just fine. 2 and I'm done......What makes you think they are starving by lowering the pms the last 7 days.you don’t think they have nutrients stored to get them to the finish.they will tell you if they haven’t.. .look how plants grow outside bud.I don’t even feed them the last fortnight or even give then a drink.they will fade naturally using up there nutrients dropping leaves .I dont think none of my grows have dropped one leaf towards the end..that tells me they have plenty of nutrients in reserve..
