Oh yeah and the bulb I use is 1 PhilipsHO alto 3500k (warm white). the rest of the bulbs I just take out. I get roots on average 3 days faster compared to the spectra whatever that they sell at the hydro shop... the ones that the fixtures come with. I found that 1 is perfect. You don't need a lot of light to get the plants rooted. The red spectrum definitely helps speed up roots. Yes I did a side by side blue vs. red, twice.

That's too funny because my true roots really fast compared to a lot of other OG's. Legend, True, and Ghost all go in around 10 days for sure, and Jew Gold is super finicky for me like 2-3 weeks.

Skywalker for me took forever as well, and then when they got going their branches were so damn weak. I culled all my skywalker today, a whole bed that has been vegging for almost 2 months. Just not feeling her I guess I don't have the patience to dial it in on that one.

Yeah my Skywalker was slow as well but nothing like my True tho I'll be starting my side bye side this weekend with the aptus versus the RE! But I use to think all this rooting enhance products where a hokes a lot of the other stuff I wouldn't much of nothing for me!

Teh Jamaican was never fully flowered out, just tested for sex, but it looks like it will be a winner. The CG is great. Uplifting.

@DC105 here are the two Casper OG's
I saw a little difference today when I transplanted them.....
If anything I'd give the edge to Aptus at this stage ,though they are both pretty close....

Here is the R.E. test plant

The Aptus test plant

I'll update again,when I transplant in a couple of weeks

Hey Waayne! What do you think the different locations of the root masses means? Aptus is more centrally located with RE being located in the bottom of the soil. Maybe the cut was sitting lower in the soil.

@DC105 it appears to me the Aptus plant has a more prolific root system.This was more apparent today when I removed the grow bag entirely , at transplant time......
The R.E, looks to have less root mass, if you look carefully,and that was what I saw this morning when I transplanted them into 5 gallon containers.both clones have always been placed the same depth at transplant time.
I'm very picky about transplant technique,and depth,they are being treated ,and cared for in an identical manner,with the only variable being the root booster.....

@TSTEW313 the upper 1/4 of the rootball on the R.E. plant had very sparse root development compared to the Aptus plant,this was even more apparent to me when I transplanted this morning, and the only reason the R. E. plant didn't lose that top 1/4 layer of soil during transplant was because I was holding it in place with my hand,The Aptus plant had enough root mass that its rootball stayed together with zero help from me.....

The above ground growth ,and health on both clones appears equal at this time,but below ground, the Aptus plant has developed a bit more root mass at this stage......
