Awesome! I always flower with shorter times than 12/12. I have found 9on/15off make very nice flowers with less heat and less power. people say harvest is less, if so its only 2-3 grams! great video
If you run from start to finish you will shorten flower times, but also reduce yield. This is why I am adding it in near the end to see the difference and I may also try a gradually reduction of day hours throughout all of flower. Something like reduce an hour every 2 weeks starting on week 4. Or something similar. I believe floraflex has a burn and turn method that does something similar. It's on their website. Not a bad idea imo
I was looking at a cheap press on amazon just to get into it but i am hesitant. Maybe i should pull the trigger on one under $200. you always have good things to say
So running lights on for 10 hours a day throughout flower actually shortened the overall time of flower? Interesting as you would normally think since the plants are getting less light daily that it would take them longer to mature. When you say it shaved time off was this based on tricombs or what did you base the plants being done on? I read mammoths write up talking about different flower times and I was going to give 14/10 a try for the first week, then taper down to 13/11 for another week, then 12/12 until the last 2 weeks then do 11/13 and then finally 10/14 to try and imitate nature. But I've been trying to get as much info as possible from people who have ran different schedules. It seems that running the longer hours towards the beginning like how the sun would be shortens the overall flower time, but if you're saying running low hours from the start shaved time off that's definitely interesting
They were saved and not producing pollen socks after treated with switch for a week. However since they wasted weeks of energy producing both male and female traits, followed by the stress I am sure the spray caused. The growth has left much to be desired.
@@TriStateTrichomes ok so yeah heck yeah it may be a little weaker in thc and terps than a female plant but yes its worth growing if your not a seed creator. i create my own strains so i pull everything but the best
did you remove the polly sacs? if not all the weed in that tent will have seeds and you will have a 50/50 chance of the seeds being hermi depending the other strain it hit. if not careful a hermi can mess up a grow room and future grows unless cleaned good.
@@TriStateTrichomes awesome may i ask how many was there and was it in one spot. reason i ask is stress will do it also if its a weak genetics. just topping will cause it and the pollen sacks will start right at the stress point. i test a lot of seeds and see lots of hermis some will only grow 2 sacs ive never used switch but i want to. i hear switch can be handy i want to learn more about it
@@MOHIE6 i hope this is the case. its looking better before chop (you will see in the video im working on today). and of course the smoke test and lab tests will tell me for sure how it ends up.
Climbed in the 130 degree crawl space above the grow and added some R38 insulation. Hopefully that helps a little. the outer walls are not insulated though and i am not sure how to do that without ripping out the exisint walls which is a lot more work than i want to do.
Props too you good job but any Real grower is looking at those plants like , YIKES. If you need any tips on how to get a full lush canopy and too better maximize your space , reply and I’ll help you. You could be getting so much more with that setup. I’m not a chatgpt bot either.
