Very nice, well i will remember this thanks, i still have a bit to go so i hope the gjve me enough to smoke for the summer. at the moment the ones i posted are about 14" at the end of week 3. so far in week four the la confidential are griwing a bit not sure what the end result will be. Next time i wont mess with the. as much. all growers were rookies at one time or another right.
I have done it too. Well not quite so extreme. but the plants grew new leaves and flowered fine. No I am sure I did not get max yield or potency but I did get a whole bunch of way better than the brick weed I was smoking at the time.
Newer leaves are always more efficient true.. Thats just the nature of new life, its also caused by the "boundary layer" (stiff air surrounding the leaf) The older the leaf, the thicker the boundary layer which slows it down.
I have a friend who does the defol thing like you.....he does not have big buds, they're smaller but dense as hell and he does pull an impressive yield increase with it (for plant size)....in weight!
Remember that time you questioned my need for CO2 in a sealed room......? That was awesome!
Would a ruler be helpful? I dont know if I am following you on the wire ties but I have plenty......
Yeah its a simple reference to show that it's the same spot/plants....NOT that you would cheat! I mean that!!!.....It's just that someone did cheat on that before.....another site.....Would a ruler be helpful? I dont know if I am following you on the wire ties but I have plenty......
Are you just looking for a reference? It is a 5x5 frame but I certainly will help make it easier just let me know what you think will work best.
Well just like the defoliating i may be abit over the top with light, i have 4 1000wat hps going all open and i ha two intake 6" can fans and 1 8" can with charcoal filter. I have two fans going non stop during the on time so even though the lights are putting out some serious heat in able to keep thep temp at 72 degrees and my rh is 35%-45% unless depends on the weather ince im depending on the cold outside air to cool the room. I did fuck with them quite a bit cause i wanted short plants but not as short as they ended up. When i say short the tallest of the La's is 14" the shortest is 9" they never streched even in veg they never got very big. the blue dream dud what i wanted height wise about 3'6 maybe 4' and i did the same to all if em. i dont under stand why one strain is so small while the blue dream didnt. i know that some LA strains are short and compact but even then they get to 30" or better. these are the same size as they were when i flipped them i dudnt strip them till after the second week if flower. i dint get it the were healthy as can be. here are pics from this morning. i am hoping they arent ginna hermaphrodite n me one of the lights came on for no reason. i went out like i always do at 545 to be sure the lights go out the intakes are off and the heater is on. Everything went off like it should and heater went on like it should to all set to timers. i switched back to the manual timer cause the digies were shit. Sure as its winter i had to fill my humidifier i went out at 745 to get my jugs for water and ine of those fuckin lights came on i have no idea hiw or why no body can get in there. Anyway ill cross my fingers. i have two plants under each light . they litterally look like miagi treez.
DANGER! DANGER! I SEE PM! Treat and clean,,treat and clean!!!!
pretty sure @RM3 has done side by sides, no?
@ the 3 min mark.Oh and Op I think they look fine and will fatten up nice and dense with all the light hitting them.
The way I look at it every method has it's time and place....You just have to make sure for the type of strain you are growing you understand when those time and places are.
here check this outnot for the faint of heart if you are one of the fan leaf lovers.
Still drying in closet and will know tonight or tomorrow. But I can estimate it at 5-6 oz dry dense nugs and an ounce of close bud trim.
Won't stay for long. People can't resist a good defoliation debate.Glad we got this back on track.
What strain ?
