The short plant is a sour diesel/bubble gum cross, and the tall one is a white widow/purple eurkle cross they are beginning their third week of flowering, each plant is 3-4 feet under a separate 1000 watt HPS. They have 1500ppm of CO2 at all times during the daylight The room is a...

From experience, in a sealed room flowers appear sooner and finish faster than in a continuously ventilated room( though this could be the result of many factor including additional CO2, more light, different growing medium, ect.). But this may also be due to the fact the ethylene is trapped. I...

Some of these improvements in yield may be due to the addition of copper and zinc to the soil. Just a thought, but that light pulsing sounds like a really good idea.

Thanks for the advice on the duct tape, I just swapped it with aluminum foil.

You might also want to check for any scaring or corrosion on any trays, buckets, or reservoir tanks. Certain compounds in plastics can be toxic to plants. Some even mimic plant hormones causing weird things to happen, such as stunted growth or premature ripening. Over time, through damage, or...

A one time treatment with a 250 ppm foliar application during the second week of vegetation caused about 10% of a particular batch of new york diesel to exhibit early signs of flowering including the formation of very small white stigmas on one or two of the plants bud sites. The plants also...
