Top, train, and trellis. Dial in your environment and light and spread her branches.

Removing the lower foliage would help to reduce humidity and increase airflow, but won’t reduce the chance of a plant expressing male. Herm can be caused by stress, but in photoperiod plants it’s usually more likely due to genetic disposition imo.

I run autos in the corners of several of my tents. I get a better yield under 100w at 18/6 than I do under 300w at 12/12.

To be completely self sustainable in my garden.

To go solar on my indoor – I’ve seen some stackable systems start at $3k. 🤞

To finish popping F2s.

To have a legal country to grow in!

!!!Old School Hippie-Science Incoming!!!

Ever hear folks say that the resin/trichomes are the plant’s sunscreen?

I’ve had this issue when I’m running plants indoors that are opposite the season outside – harvesting Spring-Summer. I think nature kinda “knows”.

I’ll turn my light intensity down from 60% to 40% (1000ish ppf to 700ish) and run cooler temps with more direct of a breeze during my last week. I think it signals the planet to finish up like it’s the end of fall.

The explanation is total Bro-science, I haven’t researched it, but it’s an SOP for me at this point because it works.

I’ve been on this quest. Living in the state that I do – I didn’t want to buy a C02 system and have to transport refills. I tried boosters, bags, mushrooms, BREWING MEAD, yeast and sugar. I had no idea how much was being produced, or if any was actually getting to my plants.

Eventually, I bought a C02 meter and moved my grow to the windowless side of my basement where ambient C02 was higher.

Nothing replaces a controller.

I was seeing them on advertised on IG for a while and Amazon was carrying it, but I can’t remember the brand name.

The plant stops producing chlorophyll during that period as well. To me it makes for a smoother smoke, but 🤷

It won’t hurt anything. You can get some tasty mushrooms. But they aren’t going to produce 400ppm. I’ve never gotten anything significant from them.
