I am blind but I think post 389 makes my opinion look like there might be just a tiny bit of validity to my opinion but you do you uncle

Mr Old Uncle Ben Botany professor,
I will gladly concede if you can botanical correctly explain why said solar panels are necessary after stretch/transition? perhaps you know more botany than me?
Once stretch is over I still have never figured out why anyone would give 2 shits about a solar panel/fan leaf when growing indoors once the plant is done with stretch! There is no need to protect the flower or fruit from the outside elements!
The roots nor the plant will never grow bigger after transition/stretch! Leave the solar panels, strip them or whatever you want!
However IMO the day stretch/transition is over every bit of my attention is directed towards flowers the solar panels are pointless and just creating unnecessary higher RH! If the flowers can’t support themselves with their sugar leaves that is a grower issue not a botany issue!!!
when growing indoors the grower is the boss not Mother Nature! If anything is wrong it’s the growers fault!
I started torturing my indoor grow ladies on my 4th run. It was at least a week or two or 500 ago! I have left all SOLAR PANELS/FAN LEAVES on 1/2 a light at least 1or 5 times!
someone that has not done it themselves SHOULD NOT TELL ANYONE HOW MUCH THEY DO NOT KNOW ABOUT BOTANY IN MY OPINION!
However everyone should grow the way that grows best in their environment!
Merry Christmas
Peace
Those "solar panels" are the source and the flower is the sink. The fans have the majority of the chloroplasts that adsorb the light and the stomata that intake CO2, those sugar leaves dont have squat compared to the fan leaf. That fan leafs (the source) whole purpose is feeding that flower (the sink). If you want to strip off the sources you should stuff a whole lot of sinks in there and just accept they will be smaller without the source attached but more of them.

However this is not luck in my opinion!
Every 63-65 days same shit and sometimes a different strain.
Show me yours?
Shit I forgot to attach the photos of my flowers!

This diagram is legit! Especially outdoors in soil!
Create an artificial environment indoors and everything changes!
Nutrients, Light intensity, CO2 ppm, and 7000 other things are the growers job not mother nature’s!
Solar Panels after week 4 indoors are not allowed in my ARTIFICIALLY CREATED SPENT TOO MUCH MONEY HILLBILLY GROW ROOM!
Your dehumidifier size needs to be double if not triple if you wanna grow leaves!
Again I do not think my way is the best but it works best for me!
My grow pics speak for themselves Uncle IOM
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT!

They're called fan leaves, for starts. These extended photon collectors are the strongest, most efficient and effective resource for the production of flowers as well as other tissue like roots.
Merry Christmas from the Family.

BTW > can you clean up your post #407, you have Multiple images of the same thing and none of them load completely for me and takes Forever to try..
Thank you !
She will be done when she's done
Breeders estimates are just that, they say 7 - 9 weeks of flowering time.
Right now shes at day 54 of 12/12, I would say day 42 of first sign of pistils or 6 weeks.
I figure another two to three weeks which oddly enough is in line with their estimate
Cheers
Yea stacking it onLooking good @Absorber starting to thicken Up mate
Going to be interesting to see how far it goes

Growing 20ft up in a tree? I have to ask why do you grow up in a tree? I've seen folks grow a lot of places but never in trees. I've got trees and a ladder so if its a good idea I may give it a go.
