Nugs, Fruity Pebbles Day 28... Amazing! Any way to get just a quick snapshot of the mainline itself? I'm just curious about the origins of the lower side branches. You selected to keep those and they're also really packing it on. These are under 1000W?

Really excellent photos of classic Bonsai trees are fascinating to me also. I really wished sometimes that I lived in a hotter location that would allow me to train little trees.

yes...do not use a heat mat!...and use rapid rooter plugs, in a plastic shoebox with a 42 watt, 6400K daylight CFL above it......try to maintain the inside temp at 70 degrees.

it is a standard 8 headed manifold, with a little bit of stubby secondary branching that starts about 10 inches from the terminal.....she is under 600 watts.

I love how solid the background is. What is that a painted wall or a legitimate backdrop?

that was my goal last week, was to separate my subject from the backdrop (which is just black fabric)....it is all about light placement.....set your 2 clamp lights very slightly beyond (behind the cola facing the camera)...then use your ring light to get close...make sure your WB is set how you want it, nice small aperture....and let her rip.....don't be afraid to shine a little light into the lens, that is a good way to darken the backdrop, while giving a nice little back-lit glow to the pistils.

I'm not sure if I remember correctly I'll have to see if I can't find the article I read it in, but I believe I read an article that stated how 600w are better then the 1000w and it stated why. I'll have to try find article. I like the 600w over 1000w.

Hey Nug's, about what week in flower do you start seeing colors for the AOS BCS pheno?
Click to expand...
i can see some magenta stripes on the big puffy pre-flowers at day 12 of flower.....she also has this tiny spot of magenta at where the fan leaf stem meets the axial branch on the meri-stem while in veg!...that is why i am so excited about my one Queen of Hearts, because she has the same marking.
