Hmm that just enlightened me alot actually. So the genetics basically pre determine its potency and how much it will yield stuff given it has the proper nutes and lights. So basically the amount of light i give will only affect it to a certain point.
Generally yes, but really it is light, nutrients, air content and water all Together, that give you the best results taken in context of each other...sometimes for each strain that can be different....no one can tell you how to feel that out, but at least someone can provide a little guidance and say start Now and you will get a feel towards your strains, especially after a few runs!
So lets say a strains max thc content is about %25 thc; this means that no matter what you do its genetics will not let it go past that. Correct?
To some extent yes......because on one hand you can breed something with 25% thc and yield offspring with potentially more, so yes that is a genetic process, when you got to flower, genes don't change....so yes in flower, its limit, is it's limit and your skill level accordingly will make it shine!
Crappy analogy?
And how did your 55w grow work out?
You can search my name and look thru my earliest threads, there aren't many over the last 2 years, probably less than 10...The fridge is in there, using Cree Warm White and Cool White LED bulbs from Home Depot....I would say I averaged anywhere from .5-.75 grams/watt..... over the few grows I did do......
As of right now....those 55watts were replaced by 25 watts of 3500k Bridgelux Vero 10's......which have flowered [once] and now are vegging...I am kinda of an LED fan, don't mind me
