I might try to source them. But im guessing itll be cost prohibitive. I really like the idea of a general booster foliar feed. And i like the idea of crafting my own. But part of what I’m doing is trying to understand what goes into an effective foliar feed.

as a note, the lights are pretty close to tmy plants and they’re not showing much signs of stress but its only been a day. I’m considering making a spray that could reduce oxidative stress so lights can be pushed harder. I wonder if there would be a demand for that

There's a million foliar products. I use the floraflex foliars, kelp as a foliar, and photosynthesis plus as a foliar. You can use kelp with the lights on

looks like they have grow bags at my local hydroponic store.

Im wondering if a water heater/furnace puts out significant co2? my grow space is with the water heater and furnace. I know the furnace exhausts when running but i think the pilot lights arent vented unless the furnace fan is blowing.

Idk but im looking forward to seeing what mass these girls put on. Im seeing more pistils in the growth tips like full flower is coming soon

Even having your tent in your room running with you breathing in that room boost co2 a bit, it doesnt really become usable until a boost of at least 400ppm from what ive been reading. Info is all over the place so im just trying my best.

I couldnt help myself… i got a few ingredients that have been scientifically linked to bigger buds. When I’m in the hydroponic store today, I’ll check out their foliar feeds.

Theyre looking bigger and stronger by the day. We’ll definitely only run two plants in the 2 x 4 next time. The third plant is hidden beneath the big plant on the right. They’re standing about 3 feet off the ground right now and later today I’m gonna go grab some CO2.

I’m seeing growths come off the apical stem above the lower canopy. Typically, I see no growth the apical stem above the lower canopy (if there isn’t an even canopy). But I’m certainly no expert.

Buds are starting to put on mass

Since my girls more like 8 inches away, i assume theyre getting good light. Plus i have 50w of lights on the sides. But i need a ppfd meter.

Photone app is free and measures ppfd and dli. I checked it against an actual meter and the app is pretty darn accurate

No heckin way. I would never have thought about that.

I tested the app. And I’m getting almost exactly what the factory PPFD map says. The tops are getting 1500ppfd, the lower canopy is getting 950ish. I’ve got to be getting extra CO2 from the pilot lights. My little bit of research tells me that much light should be burning the plants without CO2 and everything else in check.

Make sure you toggled to LED for your light options
