So check it out, man I’ve finished runs out with my output on my lamps as low as 45%. It just really depends on the cultivar that you’re growing and how well it can deal with light intensity. Some phenos can be more pesky than others, which means that it’s you know also a genetic problem where you could have one phenotype have no absolutely no problem with the light, but then from the same batch plants and seeds, another phenotype just gets its ass kick the entire grow. Nowadays, man, I swear 95% of the problems that people run into if their indoor growers is the LED light intensity situation and it’s proximity as well relative to the canopy of your plant dialing in these newer lights is a lot easier than you may think it’s simply just hanging your light a lot higher than you think. It should be at a lot lower of output than you think. It should have as well. That way if you start to see the plant stretch and nodes get too far away from each other then you know turn up the output a little bit don’t start with everything at the highest settings for whatever stage of growth. Everything is in start low and work up to it. That’s why we call it dialing it in And the same thing applies with nutrient regimen. Always start with the lowest dose possible and give the plants nourishment, but if they start the bitch and want more, it’s a lot easier to feed a hungry plant than it is to cure an overdose plant while trying to tow the line and keep it fed as well.
Now there’s a really simple solution to your main cola as well and that’s super cropping. I super crop in flower all the time if I have an unruly plant that stretched ass off and has itself a little bit too close to light you don’t need no Icarus buds. Heres a bid on how to do it. Or you can just dk some super low stress chiropractic bending of the attached stalk, to bend the cola out of the way and tiie it down, stake ect…… now with this video that I’m attaching just realize that now that you’re firmly in flower with that thing that if you do choose the super crop it, you have to pay extra attention when you’re rolling your fingers back-and-forth on the stock that you’re trying to pinch over to a 90° bend that you’re not ripping into the flesh of it and you know causing undue damage while you’re trying to fix your situation and be patient with it roll your fingers back-and-forth and feel the fibers crush and very gradually put more pressure on every time you rub your fingers back-and-forth pay attention to how the fibers are feeling then you can get a really really clean bend and it’s like no stress. It actually improves uptake to that top
While opening up that particular cola to more light on a larger part of the bud, the side profile provides way more surface area to a light than the top profile of a bud. Super cropping has multiple pluses and is a necessary tool for your future endevours
Phlockout you say? Mind explaining what you are talkjng about a little? Water source get serviced? Think you used to much nutes? You in soil?
