Good read that's guided me on most things I do with plants. I always tell my plants what I'm doing and why. They grow better when they understand.Yeh, I recall reading about that 30 years ago in a book by Peter Thompkins, The Secret Life of Plants.

wow do ya really? I thought I was the only one who talked to them and actually thought they hearing me & listening. It's good to know broGood read that's guided me on most things I do with plants. I always tell my plants what I'm doing and why. They grow better when they understand.
I agree with that and they sure are understanding you very well. I'm still new to these auto's but i'll find my style with them. I really think only thing I need to do next grow is keep my lights higher and I'll have the size I want. I think that new 600w led was just too close, I should of taken your advice and keep higher, but I kept around 24-26inches am now thinking & from seeing inter-node spacing the light "should been no less then probably 30" live & learn I suppose.Good read that's guided me on most things I do with plants.

Yeah you can slow a plant down a long time before they show any other symptoms. I found in most circumstances with a quality LED it's better to hold higher than most people are holding.I agree with that and they sure are understanding you very well.

I think you'd like how I harvest, I tag everything strain/date & % of trics. at harvest everything will go onto hangers. Once dry I tag jars with strain/harvest date/tric % & weight. I think I mentioned before that I have more of a controlled grow area Clean room really, I will only enter tent area with clean room gown it's kinda like a painters coveralls except it won't leave anything on buds if they touch against it, I also use hairnet, gloves and booty thingys to make sure nothing being tracked into my area. Thats why I can show the closest of close shots and you will NEVER-EVER see hair or other contaminates on my product, ever! I am super anal about things like that. A clean grow room is a happy grow room, IMO.Even through-out grow, I am constantly cleaning around grow area and every Sunday, is cleanup day when I wash floor down in the tent,wipe fan's,tops of lights,extractor,etc.. and tent itself is inside a screen-room type thing for extra layer of security from pests
am disciplined grower.

Yeah, I think the power from that led a bit surprizing too, you seen the spacing. and seen they just didn't stretch out I think it held them backYeah you can slow a plant down a long time before they show any other symptoms.

I don't use any pestisides, so I need take many precautions to prevent them from entering. I go to even futher extremes like burning the bug candles before I'm gonna open and go in. I know it's not all needed but I know if by some bad luck they get through, I'm have a room full of bugs in no time. so I take away everything they like.Amazing! I'd be in the bug house if I tried to grow like that lol! Wish I could, but its not how my brain works lol!
As my light is fixed i start them of on the floor to encourage them to stretch and then move them up as they progressAnd its quite common for people to get their lights too close in veg. Vegging plants truly only need 1/2 the light they need in in flower. I an running several of my lights at 30" + in veg now and let the plants grow up to them. And see a definite improvement.
