that's nice and all. long photoperiod means vegetative growth. pretty sure we're talking about tapering off N in bloom, no??

<flips back a few pages>

yep, we're definitely talking about bloom phase only

Oh does a plant intake N differenlty at different times?

Wheres your data on that...

<---flips through no pages because 3rdRyk didnt bring anything

something like this:

Prof. Schubert writes when plants becomes P-def, such a cycle gets throttled while others (which are not P-dependant) run fully leading to an anthocyan buildup in the outer layer of the stem.
I have not been able to find which cycle(s) are affected, it's somewhere buried in books.
But all living creatures possess such cycles but with plants, it really gets excessive how much they can synthesize (compared to animals).

That said, my main interest is photobiology not chemistry so I haven't spend much time to peruse this....
Saw people fighting with her yesterday...just remember, we need her more than we need you guys trying to diss her

The idea is to not get yellow leaves, that need to be pulled, or fall off. It's better to not pull them off. Let the plant finish with it, and let it go on its own.
Well there is always yellow leaves...Outdoors you will have yellow leaves when it gets Aug. ..There is no way to stop it ..The shade leaves will fall along with most on the rest.If you don't go to there you risk the chance of mold..They will fall get caught on branch .That is not good..So Don't know about indoors but they all have leave to start they just pick them before they yellow..Never had a plant that did not have yellow leave at the budding stage..One of my trips is to get the leave off get rid off all you don't want..Early Aug.

Curious that so many self-appointed experts are spouting "science" here in NEWBIE CENTRAL!!!??!!....do you even get the irony?

I don't think anyone here is anything more than a novice grower. Sorry. Some of you are more transparent than you probably realize. If you really do understand science, then why can you barely spell any of it? or communicate it in a way that makes sense? And anyone who actually runs a business doesn't have time to post thousands and thousands of times on a web forum bickering with beginners.

To the OP....sorry we couldn't help you.

yeah sadly, but I feel like it still wasn't a waste to formulate these lengthy answers because other readers may catch them, and realize a plant treatment is not like a car repair :lol:
from your postings, there is a relationship b/t N and greenness of leaves. also too much N negatively effects thc, cannabinoids, etc.

but the question that i'm asking is should you taper down your N towards harvest? there are alot of threads here that say to cut way down or even quit using N so that the plant won't make more leaves than flowers.

it seems to me from your studies that a steady amoutn of N til harvest is the best option as long as it isnt' above the threshold of effecting thc, cannabinoids. would you agree??

NPK Raw's feeding chart of individual nutrients says to cut out the nitrogen during flower, but the plants are still getting it from the calmag and traces of whatever else. So I would say this is accurate. Just enough to keep growth of the buds happening after the stretch I suppose.
