Temperatures effects on plant growth

[LEDZep]

I just read this new article about the effects of temperature (and Co2) on plant growth and it is FULL of good tips and information I had never heard anywhere else.

Good info! I like their explanation of why NOT to flush.
Tip #10!!

There are some interesting points, but I would caution against coming to any hard conclusions. Albeit, I skimmed the article, much it smacks more of stoner/bro science than anything else.

Tip #10 – Keep plants green all the way to harvest. (see pic above) Eliminate chlorophyll after harvest with a carefully controlled, slow 60deg F / 60% RH drying / curing procedure, instead of using aggressive flushing (nutrient starvation) to yellow (pre-cure)plants.

Are you fucking kidding me?

Bypass senescence, and then try to trick everyone by curing?

This is the kind of shit that gets new growers doing dumb ass shit.

Senescence is key to a "High Quality" final product. What they say is the exact opposite of what you should do.

Please people don't read this link. To bad it's not written in a book then I could pile them all up, and burn them like Nazi's.

I don't flush, but only use water the last week (normal watering amounts). and I do cure my flowers. always super tasty and no harsh taste.

Same here tho for bit longer. But it took me a while to get there, 1st few grows was major flush and was fine tho real yellow but I then had a single plant that wasn't flushed and I'll never forget the taste, whole plant was disgusting.


I'm sure I was in tears at time but in retrospect it was best thing that could've happened as have just used minimal amounts needed ever since and learned that the taste is just as important as effect

In short what I'm saying is any new grower should flush good untill more experienced, IMO. Esp if using that bottled stuff
