10 - Agrobar 720s over 6 - 4x8.5 ft rolling benches. F & D FTW

Thank you so much! How close did you get the tops to the lights? They are so close but look so good! Are the top buds closest any less terpy/smelly or the same as the rest?

Cheers!

They were too close this run. This is the closest ive ever gotten, some tops were 4-5ish inches away from bars. Way too close tbh. No less terpy, the only issue is the varied response when it comes to photobleaching. Our ogs all photobleached a little, the truffle and truffle mintz could be seriously 4-5 inches away and not one sign of stress or bleaching, its wild. This has been added to my list of things to consider when i place which strains in which location.

Hi very informative description of all your grows thanks for that.

I would be interested in your climate concept. What is the arrangement of your ac and your dehumidifiers. With the carbon filter I assume that you are not running a closed system? Is your mum and colne room also connected to it?

Good stuff, thanks

You seem to operate the grows very profesionally, and your numbers are impressive

Effect of Potassium (K) Supply on Cannabinoids, Terpenoids and Plant Function in Medical Cannabis

We have demonstrated in previous studies that the essential macro-nutrients nitrogen (N) and phosporous (P) have profound effects on the production of cannabinoids and terpenoids in the cannabis plant. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the hypothesis that potassium (K) supply, which...

This regards quality drops with K increase
I have been seeing same effect in my experience

And what about light reflectors for the sides?

You can't achieve top tier results if you dont have everything dialed in and as other and I stated your nutrients solution is not optimal , other than that I think you could be limited by the size of the slab. Would be interesting to know how much you yield by slab on average. If you let the slab dry too much it will affect yield too.

Anyway it all depend on various factor.

theorical yield is dli * yield factor * number of days / surface

at constant dli , the number of days will have significant impact on the final yield, in theory.

thats why you can achieve incredible result on some metrics but it doesnt tell you if it outperformed a different scenario because it took longer time to achieve those result.

the sqft metrics have to be in balance with the effiency of the method to be cost-effective.

Happy Ladies
Week 3

 

[Crooked8]

All smooth in here so far, happy ladies, lights at 80%.

No matter what my truffle mintz curls downward. Its just a genetic trait. The budsite foliage does it from the start. Nothing else in the room is doing it,
TM curl….

Roots look terrific….

Everything else NOT curling…..

Transplanted clones as well, veg going strong

I dont think the TM curl issue is correctable, or even a real issue. Gg4 always has leaf twist, could simply just be an expression but im done obsessing over it

You might be going in a bit heavy with the feed. Overall there isn't much praying, but a bit of sagging. Some elongation that might be excessive, and the red stress markers that kinda bring it all together. They may need a bit more RH, or a bit less feed, to really look vigourous.

I realise you like this feed, and must run enough to get the K you need. There is a picture emerging though, where your plants look like they don't want so much N, and N in turn, antagonises K. Perhaps you have reached the point, where this feed is the next thing to change. Which would mean getting a lab to see what's really hiding in it. Before you could find something essentially the same, but with lower N. Alternatively, you could lower the EC 10%? then put the PK back. Just to have a look at what might be achieved.

Are you running a bit more EC than usual, or more regular applications? I don't remember seeing one of your crops like this. There looks like more branching in general.

I disagree regarding the feed strength/N. I significantly lowered our base. Were seeing textbook N deficiency this run on a few strains like white truffle and truffle mintz. Just standard lower leaf chlorosis. I backed the feed down this run compared to last by a solid 10-15%. RH is in check, we’re in week 3 sitting around 60%. What makes you suspect too much N? That downward curl i displayed as explained is just one strain. Nothing else is curling down. Also, downward curl is not always associated with Nitrogen. Not having any K issues either this past few runs or this one thus far. The more branching could just be these photos or strains in these shots. I think this run seems pretty similar structurally to our last one but i could be wrong. Time will tell! So will the tissue tests im sending off this week . I did notice that the TM does have some redish stem action but thats it. Pretty much all other stems are green. I dunno, here i thought they were looking good but you have the eye and youve got me second guessing .
