    Anesia Seeds

    I'm a huge fan of Anesia Seeds because of their guaranteed world-record breaking high THC strains and reliable/transparent inhouse genetics so I thought I pop some beans from them. This is Future#1 an outstanding stocky Indica currently a bit droopy from transplant. This strain is quite...

    Chlorophyll does not reflect green light – how to correct a misconception

    Source: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/00219266.2020.1858930 ABSTRACT Plant leaves are green because they contain the green photosynthetic pigments, chlorophylls a and b. Popular science literature, and sometimes even textbooks, state that the greenness is caused by reflection of...

    Study finds HPS spectrum results in higher photosynthesis rate (per light quanta) than LED spectra

    From: https://www.scirp.org/journal/paperinformation.aspx?paperid=108091 You see that at any given similar PPFD the HPS spectrum results in a (slightly) higher CO2 assimilation rate. Before the HPS vs LED comparison, the study compared 3 LED lights to find out the best - which was chosen...

    Nitrogen feeding & relation of chlorophyll-content, harvest & cannabinoids

    Generally the increase seems like linear (the 275mg has about 5x higher Chl content than the 60mg dosis) though there seems to be "a jump" in the middle. >> CC = container capacity, lower required a higher fert-frequency Keep in mind this is organic fertilizer that may not fully instantly...

    Grower forums & secret influencers feedback thread

    Over the course of ~~10 years membership in a dozen (big n little) growforums I think I can savely say that a number of posters are just present to influence the others to make them buy their shit, hype their products, generally, try to promote their own interests... Naturally, this background...

    SledgeHammer Flush - the apex of capitalist-driven grow decadence

    So let's just intentionally intoxicate the soil by a barrage of fancy bottles and absurd high EC - even in >>soil<< lol .... but that "soil" is actually mostly non-decomposed wood-chips n twigs lol (guess why...) You could collect some dirt from any field outside, throw ur house animals litter...

    CORNUCOPIA 4 part fertilizer - fake/only water?

    Hello, I'm scratching my head because this fertilizer brand is made out of the usual mineralic nute base salts but actually doesnt even increase the EC. Only 10-20ppm. States no chelates but tricarboxylics (guess sounds more important than citric acid ph down) NPK formula is also lacking Ca, Mg...

    The advantage of Automatics

    Greetings, as said in another thread passed a time in the hospital - with a friend watering the small tent, in which 4 photo + 1 automatic strain healthily veg in peat-based soil. I am so happy to have planted this automatik as that watering idiot wasnt able to adjust to 12/12 so I now have a...

    Industry standards for PAR/umol-testing on growlights

    Hello, does anyone know a link to a professional read about how the industry performs these tests (to find out the ppfd of their products...)? As far as I read from various sources on the net it seems like they test umols between the classic PAR range of 400-700nm. Doesn't this distort the...

    LED boards & the hotspot

    Hello fellows, now that diode tech makes it possibly to basically fill the entire tent"sky" with thousands of small "suns" I wonder why it's still not possible to do away with the central hotspot, that, basically is the result of too much diodes converging at the center but relatively less at...

    HPS/ MH spectrum change by +10% overdrive from dig. ballast

    Hello everyone, does anyone know what the spectrum change of HID lamps is when run under overdrive mode, esp. in relation to PAR? And is the light generally shifting more towards having a smaller amplitude in terms of the EM band frequency or is it perhaps lamp-specific? Thanks in advance for...

    Long Light Floral Cycles?

    Does this work? So could I turn on the lights for flowering plants to, say, 36h on and only 12h off, this way skipping every other night. And the plants will still stay in flowering mode? Did anyone ever try this out and can confirm it'll practically work out well? edit: the pic is taken...

    Do you press your MJ into the curing jar?

    THCa slowly oxidizes so I thought it may be a good idea (after 1-2 weeks in the jar when it's established that no mold is going to appear any time soon) to press the whole load applying maximum pressure to reduce the amount of oxygen that can touch the trics. Also needs much les space. But does...

    Does heat-stress or bleached top buds prevent further growth?

    A tent of a friend of mine is now 8 weeks into bloom and some buds start to get extremely yellow bleached. It must be that they're too close to the HPS lamps because it only appears in places directly towards the lights and only on budsites that are quite close to lamps (and maybe some...

    Perfect plant-shape under HPS

    Ok, so I saw this TV report on legalized MJ in some US states and how some big capitalists are currently maximizing their output by different methods. I'd like to inquire into one specifically. The owner of one of these businesses showed the TV crew a huge hall that was entirely filled with...

    Is or can UV/Light-bleaching be diminished by a good amount of N in a leaf (dark green)?

    Hello fellows :))) Here's the situation: Weather in central EU's been far too rainy at the end of May which delayed the time to set about 30 homegrown plants into early June. It then became gradially better weather although still some rainy days here & there. With some of the plants I gave a...
