Report about growing your weed with different flowering methods

[John Kramer]

I have 5 clones of White Widow Dutch Passion (20/4) and i'm gonna do some extrime technics like pruning and defoliation
Now it's early veg, i'll add more when i'm ready, pls be patient!
Pls do fix my english, Ty.
Have fun >_<
Let's get started xD
Before

After

The middle one is sick bs of phosphorus overdose, so i'm gonna give him Salicylic acid in a few days, lets's see what it'll do xD
OK 11.08 the middle one have been given 50-60 milligram Salicylic acid, i'll add the pic in a few days

12.08 - update: the middle one still very sick Т_Т
salicylic acid didn't help ((

Ya definitely got my attention with extreme techniques planned. I see your starting early training. What ya got planned?

I do a lot of plant manipulation as well. Lst, hst, supercropping with monster clones. Then I add a floater screen.

 

[John Kramer]

i'm gonna put all 3 plants in different modes
13/11
10/14
8/16
to see wich one will go flower early, then i'll set them to 12/12
1 of them will be getting Salicylic acid
1 gets a nail in its core
1 gets ring around its xylem
for now xD
buckle up and enjoy >_=

I'm intrigued. Sounds like the experiment has started.

I'll go with 10/14 to show first. I've done a few spikes before. Dunno what the other stuff is. I guess youll explain as ya go.

I like experimenting around. Sometimes pays off sometimes meh...

 

[John Kramer]

ok... i had experimented with 24\0 since 11.13 and it's about 2 weeks of 24 hours (the 3 clones was spared this regime)
the leaves without light are greener then those that was on the light, also the leaves have Necrosis (only those that was on the light) plants just froze in grow...
today i sat up timer for 18\6 and i'm gonna watch what will it do to the plants
i'm gonna add some pics in 6 hours

 

[greenmobster440]

So what happened to the 3 flower times? I'm kinda confused.

I use 24hrs light sometimes when they are small but lately I've been using 20/4 and it works fine. I'll use 18/6 when the weather warms.

So are you going to flower?

 

[John Kramer]

these 3 are very sick so no point to expirement on them
2 oher plants are affected with same problem (phosphorus overdose) but they much stronger
i can't go to flowering until i fix phosphorus overdose
now it's around 25 days of veg... i'm gonna wait untill they got better then i'm gonna give them 72 hours of night and set them 13\11
after last part of flowering (around 3-4 months i'm gonna set 8\16 for faster maturing)

I use 24/0 vegging and 12/12 for flower on a Photo.
I use 20/4 on an Auto from start to finish.
Not sure what all those other times are all about but to each his own.
Yes they will flower at 13/11 or 14/10. Thats pretty much what happens in mother nature but growing inside with lights is a different creature and also gives you more control of your lighting and other things such as bugs and rain.

 

[John Kramer]

i have tested 14\10 and white widow just don't go to flowering on this regime
it's very strange simptoms that they're showing... it's like the phosphorus deficiency, but it can't be so...
i have tested 24\0 with cucumbers and they was showing the same problems (frozen grow, necrosis, etc)

 

[greenmobster440]

A pic of what your seeing is helpful.

 

[John Kramer]

in 7 hours i'll add some pics, now they're sleeping for 10 hours.

You must have a nice surplus of weed to be playing around with all this experiment stuff..lol

I like to play around as well. I do a lot of forum reading. Sometimes I think a little further outside the box and see something interesting in a grow that I could improve or tweak. If it fits into my style of growing I give it a go occasionally.

I like your need to just do it yourself and see.

yeah i'm a little obsessed with those things, i belive when i try it xD
as u can see 2 far brunchies in the middle are greener, also on the right side in front and those that on the sides of the lamp. they were stretched 1 day ago.
now i put a bottle with home brew so that the co2 could help them get better sooner
