It seems you have provided 2 inconclusive answers here. The art of the dodge.
I made a comment and you replied “not true.” Okay, I’m not sure how to respond to that. If someone were to tell me
“why” they think I am wrong I may be able to hone in on the missing variable that results in our disagreement. But alas your rebuttals seem to rely on the
“nuh-uh” approach.
You asked me to elaborate and I did. Since I have started growing I have noticed a correlation in amber trichome develop vs. the amount of light pollution. I’ll explain again.
I pull my coco pots out of the tent to prune, pull, bend, and LST. I water during the lights on cycle and I wait until the coco pots have drained before pulling them out in order to spare my floor getting wet. This occurs during the lights off cycle. This occurs once during veg, and once again during week 3 of flower.
My basement tent can be thought of as my control. Very little light pollution from windows occur while I prune and do the LST.
My upstairs tent, which has more light pollution contains the same plants, taken from the same mother, grown in the same manner, under the same light 600W HPS, same brand and same nutrients.
Seems like we have a valid experiment. Two situations in which every variable is the same save for one variable (light exposure during dark cycle).
My observations conclude that my development of amber trichomes are delayed by ~ 1.5 weeks in my upstairs unit. And since I’ve controlled for other variables I’ve concluded that the 1.5 week delay is a result of the light exposure during the dark cycle. And this phenomena has occurred enough times during my years of growing to be statistically significant. By that, I mean I have witnessed this issue enough times (n>30, sample size) and my analysis of the data yields p < 0.05. I’m not really interested in explaining to you college level statistics. Google it.
As for others who may disagree, perhaps it is strain, the type of light, or the fact that we all have different amounts of photoactive radiation in our respective rooms.
You said that
“I’ve provided 2 inconclusive answers” and added your snide remark
“The art of dodge.” Well done brother, pat yourself on the back for putting me in my place so eloquently.
I get it that for some individuals the internet serves as an outlet to cater to their need to find conflict, disagree, or simply vent. I won’t speculate on why you feel the need to tell others they are wrong with nothing more than subjective comments such as
“I think….it’s my understanding…I hear, I heard”…etc.
I’ll second the advice that someone else gave you. Post some facts and move on. If you need an ego boost try yahoo answers, those guys will argue with you all day and their methods to express disagreement are more in-line with your own.
