Very interesting x indeed mofo! I have a lemon skunk x og (lemon og or presidential kush i believe?) And it requires heavy amounts of cal mag like no other ive grown! Maybe its the og kush that requires extra magnesium?? I am also led to believe that too much calcium can cause magnesium lockout. But im not 100% sure of this....

Might be different for you (im in England)
But usually you have to be doing that speed for a certain distance. If you saw them and slowed down your probably ok.
Also there is no set % over speed limit as rumoured for years, people think they allow 10% but they don't.
If you get caught a bit over speed limit it goes down as a near miss, its logged on their system, if you get a few near misses they will ticket you.
They give you the benefit of the doubt as long as your not taking the piss. After all speedos are not accurate.,

Havent seen that chart before! Interesting corey! So i figure by that, too much calcium or/and potassium can cause magnesium lockout??

Exactly!
Its a useful chart.
The bottom line I think is don't get carried away with any one thing thinking more is always better. Mostly folks get carried away with P and K which can cause a shit ton of issues.

I totally agree! I used that pk 13/14 when i first started growing in hydro. Very strong stuff! Used a touch too much and caused havoc lol. I think i lost yield rather than gained!

Nice yogi! Did you lose a branch on one of those ladies yogi? Looks like you did a decent defoliation too.

Nope, no lost branches. Just killing the shit that didn't stretch. I grow em flat in veg, so it's kinda a crap shoot which branches will develop sometimes. Yeah that's Schwazzing! I Defoliate inner canopy 4 weeks into veg, then again a week before flower. At 3 weeks into flower, anything that's covering a top gets cut. Weeks 3-5 I spike them with bloom boosters to compensate for the reduced food production then the sugar leaves elongate after they recover from shock. I grow blurple LED in a really small tent. Viparspectra, so it's not too bad but light penetration sucks and canopies get stupid thick. I was having problems with top heavy buds for a few years before I got brave enough to defol that heavily. It adds about a week every time you do it, but I find I get way longer Colas for the extra time you put in

Little thought experiment for you here guys. So I popped a bean a while back and but my local garden supplier was out of fabric. So, not wanting to waste it, I planted her in a shitty plastic pot with nowhere near enough space. She's an auto and I have successfully transplanted them before. But, I'm on a schedule so I can't risk stunting her that much. I've seen some impressive results from the red Solo cup challenge though. So I'm thinking of just nuking her with root enhancer to make her fill out absolutely all the space with root. It'll mean trimming roots to stop her strangling herself and feeding pretty much everyday in flower. But, if I keep the number of tops small, say 3 or 4 I think I could still manage a half decent yield. Thoughts?
