Ok I started the dreaded transplant tonight. I started with the plants that showed the most rootbound.


****INTERESTING DISCOVERY****

Each water bottle that I had rolled up in the thermal blanket, had the most extensive root systems and subsequently were much healthier and far better off than those who had simple foil wrapped around them.

TIME AFTER TIME.

I simply couldnt believe it.

Every SINGLE one had dramatically healthier features.

It appears, at least in this grow, that stabilized soil temps play a role in the growth of MJ than I had ever suspected.

I think the foil thermal blankets kept the soil temps consistent. That is no hot or cool periods.

VERY VERY VERY interesting. I even cracked open a few of the plants that are laggers and their root system was fine.....little root binding and less visable.

BUT EVERY SINGLE BLANKETED GROW CONTAINER EXCELLED IN ROOT PRODUCTION AND LEAF PROLIFERATION.

I think this needs to be investigated further. The results were a real eye opener here.

We talk alot about canopy temps but never about soil temps.

That needs to change...I will try this again just to rule out anything else.

I am convinced there is something to this. NO DOUBT AT ALL.

Anyhow here is day 16. Its getting crowded and quite frankly I am looking forward to day 21 when I can flower

Anyhow I only have room for about 16 of these 2 litre bottles. I will have to elongate the lights and now find my other high powered CFL.

Some plants will be forced to flower in their original containers. Not the best ones those, only the runts.

I MAY or may not keep a couple out of the flower chamber as I could fit them all in there because I run my fan from top.

But none the less I am excited about what I found under those thermal blankets

Amazing indeed. 5 days to go.
