Splitting the stem works! (Probably)
These four plants were clones from the same mother, they got same nutes, by which i mean plain water and occasional boosts.
In the both strains there was one generally growing better than the other (because it started with more branches or a had a better structure due to monster cropping).
What i did was, i picked the underarchiever and split the stem of it. In both strains, i did the same.
For Nl it was 2-3 days prior to harvest. For the Dinachem it was about 15 days prior to harvest.
Now the results are still inconclusive because i don’t have the final weigh in for the Dinachem but i can clearly feel a difference in the wet weight.
It was the same for the NL. The one i choose to split its stem ended up as the same weight as the other one. While the unsplit one filled a jar whole. The split one filled only 3/4 of the same jar. Weight was same.
Now for Dinachem, the one i choose to split had 12 mains and the other one had 10 [but it was generally bigger and looking fuller (the one on the right at every pic after taking the Nls down)].
I can also see a weight difference branch by branch. I will do a weigh in and post the results, but, for now i’ll say it looks pretty promising.
Personal note so i don’t get them mixed up :):
The three hanging on the hooks starting from the left end are the split ones. The other three are the unsplit ones.
(In photos the split ones are on the 2 hooks starting from the left, had to break it up a little more, so now they’re on 3)
Note for you guys:
The 60cm ruler (24”) is in the middle (only 35-37 cm is visible), on the left are from the split one and anything on the right is from the unsplit one.
