Hardcore on the pgrs? Haha they are inside out! You won't see a lot of frost there I'm thinking but doesn't always mean less bang!
What do you mean..???? I did, and pretty much have always, used a thing when they get to a certain height something that should make them stop growing taller...
Which I have always guessed was a PGR of some kind, but do you think that is waht would have caused the stress..???
I am still a newb, relatively speaking, to this whole grow situation... And learning all the time..!!!
As my mate says, You have to break a few eggs to make an omelette..!!!! :joint:

Anyway Kents, Instead of bagging my shit, Help me out..
Would 10/14 maybe a benefit..?? In what way would that be better than 12/12..????
Cheers... :fire:

I was helping out douchecanoe, lol just saying that often with pgrs they have that big fat, hairy as fuck, inside out look. A lot of veg-stoppers are known to reduce the overall frostyness as there is more hair, less bud surface apparent but most of us on here that have used them well agree that they don't significantly impact the poteny of the end product.
Personally for you I would not recommend fucking around with light cycles and other overly complicated shit until you get the rest dialled in, run that or another strain again without balls and whatever stress may have caused it and you will prob find the simplest method the best.
As long as you keep up on the ball situation (and don't choke and tank it) you will have some nice smokeables there!
Ya dig?

Hey guys! i agree PGr's use correctly and not overdone will not harm potency...i am 100% happy with my last grow, and after 1 month drying it's still sticky as hell and glorious to smoke :)

here is my new Jack X Skunk :) she's looking indica if you ask me......opinions and feedback is most welcome, anything to do with my lighthood/grow this is my first time using a air cooled light hood (it has a build in 6 inch fan) and i'm getting shweeeeet temps 25 with light on, window closed and all...heaven

Hey flow masta good upgrade to the air cooled hood. Just like me! You can lower your lights closer than that you won't burn them. How many watts?

I'm running 600 HPS would lowering it slow my stretch though?? or do you think increase overall growth? i need her to get taller as i'm cutting clones in a couple of days, and my net will go in very soon...i thought i could go closer as I can put the back of my hand to the glass and its only warm....

Hey flowie you could drop it to half the distance it is at now and im assuming that its sitting 40cm away at the moment . I wouldnt go any closer than 20cm of the tops but can vary by brand and cooling efficency of the hood . just keep an eye on it

I agree.

However pretty much anywhere that's not equatorial will have shorter light cycles toward mid winter that tell the plant that the season is moving on and it needs to hurry up and reproduce. Further frustrating a sensimilla plant.
I dont really know how excess, unnatural amounts of PGR's fit in to a natural cycle. If height is an issue clone em out SoG or something and let them have a natural cycle.
PGRs are a lazy mans way to photgenic props. Good smoke comes from healthy plants grown with care.

I'd run them on a standard amount of nutes, and for a standard 12/12 cycle. weekly flush you will get good buds providing you don't have bad genetics or fem seed.

Learn to grow without PGR's.. after that if you want to turn beautiful genetics into bikie / asian street crap you will be qualified to. I don't know any growers (and i know a quite few both up north and down south that dont bother with forums) who would use PGR's on their perso. TBH they'd laugh.

edit: Thats fully dosing PGR's to excess, flowmasta seems to have found a spot of acceptable loss for him and that's fine. (providing he knew the potential of the plant to begin with). but it takes existing growing knowledge to make a call like that.
