Completed F|T|F Growery: Ace Seeds Bangi Congo x Panama High Density

Day 30

Turned the heat up to 88f with the humidity still in the 70s. This may be how I go the entire grow with the strong amount of air circulation I have going. Seeing better growth and probably me not remembering the height needed to reach each PPFD value. I may be over 1000ppfd atm and everything is getting better used. I'll need to order a PAR meter at some point.

So I assumed the above was the reason for many of my issues and lately I've been curious about c02 consumption. I plan to monitor my c02 levels in each of my grow areas based on recirculating vs exhausting.
The other thing was the ridiculous burst of growth I received in my veg tent when I turned the exhaust fan off. Temps rose to 88f with 70ish humidity similar to my flower tent with equally strong air circulation. I saw very little moisture accumulation, vigorous growth, improved color while drinking has slowed down.

I haven't exhausted air in either of my tents in a week with really good growth as this is the healthiest I've seen the BCXP. This is usually how I correct issues in my grows but I wanted to try using less heat and I haven't been satisfied. I'm close to sure these will be 1oz per well developed plant and a 1/4 minimum on the worst ones.

Seeing a light dusting appearing on these cool looking three fingered leaves. Moved the pots around to keep the denseness together. Trying to get a good idea of how a SOG might look overall. They are finishing stretching and it is going to be cool to see how the runtier clones perform. Where the canopy is dense, this pheno is handling the tightness well since there isn't much leaf. Though, I can't remember, I believe less leaf requires more intensity compared to larger broader leaves.

Really enjoying the SOG cycle that is keeping me a bit more consistent. The Zamadelica mother is regrowing to get one more cut and then she will be flowered in the same SOG.

I've grown some of my largest with autos, loved the transition from seed to harvest but this is great. Training without training as I won't have to defoliate, prune branches or so anything besides keep the reservoir filled.

Anyways, pictures. :chimp:

I had a project in mind this is different never tested out. But what if you LST a plant main stem on the soil surface then cut sidebranches halfway so that they are still on the mainstem but half of it is cut. then put some root stim. and bury the sidebraches in the soil, so could the sidebranches start actually make roots and be half attached to the main stem??

Do you want to test this out?

Very nice looking btw! ;)

Sounds kind of like air layering and would probably work out but idk of any particular benefit.

Can't test out much of anything for awhile, sorry.

Thank you.

The benefit would be that the new sidebranch starts making new roots but still attached to the mainstem and it would get nutes from both ways. and would spread nutes evenly and better. just thinking idk. Was wondering if this could be done to an auto and get bigger yields.

I can't say that would provide any tangible benefit. If you aren't reaching 75g/sqft there's more yield to be gained through various other methods.

It takes 1-3 weeks to root a cutting, in that time many autos would be transitioning to stretch or flower. At this point, if I want more yield I grow more plants.

I was thinking also that when u cut the sidebranch halfway, it wouldnt stress that much and could continue growing and getting nutes from the maim stem while same time developing nee roots for the sidebranch. I thought about this because on my auto ultimate grow 3 years ago the lowest sidebranch cropped itself halway, slowly I think and developed some roots there, it looked very weird. And at the end of the grow that sidebranch looked like a new mini auto lol. It was 3x the size of other sidebranches.

I don't really know. I don't like training plants and I grow autos 20% of the time lol

Try it out though. Might pioneer a new technique
 
These guys around here veg their clones for a few weeks before flipping. Also, the cuttings have minimal leaves on them. The larger leaves they cut half or so off each leaf. Get that energy to the roots. Thanks for tagging me as I don't go looking for blogs :smoking:
