Root gel and some experiments

unfortunately, my camera went to the bottom of the pacific ocean on Sunday. I'm getting a new one this weekend. My iPhone does weird things when I try to take pictures in the room with the hps light. What's that about?
Pictures to come soon.

I tryed putting root gel on one of my baby vegers and wow the bottom stem is fat compared to the others, I think I must explore more.

can.i.buz: yeah i noticed the same thing, probably the frame rate/focus not keeping up with the light or something. In a similar way old computer monitors play up on some cameras.

I added some root gel to the water of my plants, and nothing noticeable. Although where two branches form in the same place, theres a couple of occasions where one of the two branches it much longer/ more developed than the other. Could that be the root gel? or just genetics?

Woah! Trippy. I just opened a photo I took of my plant on my iPhone in Photoshop. Have you done that? If you move your eyes back and forth it looks like a GIF. It moves. It's an optical illusion.

This is all very interesting, FDD and Rollitup never ceases to amaze me.
So basically, apply rooting solution to stem when you want to stunt growth or thicken up the stem for a coming storm, and feed a diluted solution to increase cell division and overall growth in either flowering, veg, or repair phases? Stem break? Dab a little rooting gel and tie and tada all better. With that being said, lets see FDD or somebody graft different strains together, almost "frankensteining" a plant. That'd be somethin.

Heck, if it works, not only would it be cool to make a plant with two different strains, but it could be useful too. After a harvest just leave your roots and lower stem in the soil and graft a clone onto it - no more worries over slow-to-develop root systems!

I'm definitely trying this if someone doesn't beat me to it!

Oh, sweet, I'm "Learning How to Roll" finally!

No shit, pre-developed root systems. Imagine a small 6 inch clone with the root mass of a 4 footer. But then again the base stalk of the 4 footer would be waaay thicker than a skinny clones stem. Somebody should also make a litre or two of rooting hormone via willow tree. Fill a spray bottle and treat plants with it. Think it would cause this "frenzy" of cell division also? And where and to what extent?

I don't know, but I do know that people have successfully grafted hops onto cannabis root stocks and vice-versa.

i've been keeping this a secret. i revegged one of my hijacks. i had to lay it sideways when i repotted because of limited height. after a few weeks a root came to the surface. i started applying root gel. i have applied it continuously over the last month or two. i am hoping for a shoot to pop out. :mrgreen:

but i remember a while back someone thought this would let you stay in 12/12 longer? like longer flowering time?
that was the growth cycle of da moose...... sniffle sniffle
and with out the pics I fear it will become only a faided memory.
And not The shinning example N PotStareAtDe We all strive for.
The Moose lives on !

I started revegging the moose following fdd's example thread,i cut her root ball down,transplanted her in fresh soil & have been giving her nitrogen once a week,she started showing new growth over the last few days now she has leaves,once she grows new branches i'll post a pic of her.

I cant wait to clone her & experiment again :hump:.

Thanks fdd.
