Well they are still photosynthesizing after they reach DLI, it’s just not optimal. So you’re not wasting energy per se. I was just offering an example of why they would be drooping before the dark cycle.
Now ya got itAka stop worrying and keep on trucking. Should be ready to flip soon? Hehe Thanks again .
The more photons the more growth. You want to max that out in order to maximize growth. There is a lot to it and it's not just that simple but like enforcer said they continue to photosynthesize but also start photorespiration and it then become less efficient and also creates some stress on the plant. When your hitting this level of lighting that's where CO2 becomes significantly more beneficial because in short it increases photosynthetic efficiency.wouldnt it be better to raise the lights to reduce the amount of photons hitting the plant, (due to light dissipation) to give it a longer period of growth during the day? Feels like i am just wasting power, and plant growth due to it having to hard shut down.
Not that I’ve noticed. If you are you could cover the air intake on the pump with some nylon stocking material. That does a reasonably good job of keeping most stuff out while still letting air in. And it doesn’t cost anything. You just have to wait until your wife is done with them@Enforcer - Does your air pump/stone ever suck up and pump fine dust partials into your res? It has been for me lately. Thinking about going to a stir pump.
Lookin’ good man.success?
