Those are fricking pretty flower tops friend. Thanks for posting. Merry Christmas.
But you can beat it though. Always test my guy. I ran the same line up. Now following bills plan with masterblend 0-12-24 and also use tribus a use monosilicic acid instead of potassium silicate. And it works better and is cheaper for me. I’d recommend trying it out and run a side by side that’s the only way to know
this is not true, I’ve ran side by side for myself and saw an increase in yield from defoliation flower. Specifically I defoliated right before flower, and then again day 21. This allows light to get to lower bud sights. It worked for me. I tested it on clones in Same environment same nutes, etc… this isn’t definitive as it could vary from different strains but it’s good enough for me and I recommend everybody to test it for themselves to see…
1tsp of which one? Ferti nitro or magnesium nitrate? Which do you think to try? And yes it’s true I enjoy playing with nute levels and finding the sweet spot that my plants love. Make me feel accomplished
You dont need canna its just watered down salt. You are buying water. Had better results switching from canna to jacks.

You saw what you wanted or expected to see. It's a common human response, confirmation bias. Of course the "technique" is backed by Cannabis Bro Science, so it's all good.
Listen to my bud -
ICMag discussion:
My post - Again, you guys are not getting it. The carbos produced are NOT localized. They are transferred throughout the plant top to bottom via the phloem. The phloem is the tissue that is responsible for the distribution of products made during photosynthesis.
The reason why you have “larf” at the bottom is based on a hormonal response called apical dominance. Auxins tend to collect and drive tissue production at the top of the plant. They will tend to get resources first. Apical dominance means that the growing apex of a plant controls the quiescence of buds sitting in lower positions along a shoot. This kind of bud inhibition is termed ‘correlative inhibition’. Correlative inhibition usually has a gradient: the lower on the shoot, the stronger the inhibition.

Newbie stuff, not gonna waste a lot of time again. Will gift you with some botanical thought cause I'm a good guy that cares.
Start at the bottom (April 8) and work your way up.
Defoliation vs No(little) defoliation
@OldUncleBen They are beauties. I love that leaf definition. They remind me of a Purple Kush I took around Christmas. I didn’t defoliate her at all except for the very bottoms so I could feed and water. No larf at all on her and the nugs were very dense. Nice smoke. She grew really slow, but I...
And in your spare time plant a fruit tree and watch fruit set deep in the canopy mature and ripen in the shade - avocado, mango, citrus, pear, apple.......it's all the same.

How is that working out vs running calnit? LD?
