your setup is something i would dream about :rastasmoke:

[dutch.lover]

our setup will be even sweeter in september. gonna move into a house, and expand things a little. now that we have gone through setting up a growspace and whatnot, we know what to do to improve it. it's allllll trial and error.

Also, going to expand our strains soon, and pick up some that are specific to my grandmother's arthritis needs: that's right, she is asking her specialist about getting her medical card! I am going to supply her

For all oil bearing herbs the oil amount peeks after the dark period.
So the idea is that if we extend the dark period we’ll get the amount to peek higher.

I’ve read it so many places and in quite a few books that I believe it

well then, all is good! heres something to try... cut the tips of every leaf on the plant, (other than resinous trim leaves) put it into darkness overnight, and compare the amount of resin to what it was before... you will be surprised i did it yesturday, and today she looks frosty - good luck...

two words, Matanuska Tundra... a whole load of people have said its good for relieving 'pain ailments' it tastes a bit like chocolate and has VERY dense buds... believe me, you'll want this strain

So weâ??ve played around with a few LST techniques.

s
Here is the one we use the most, itâ??s easy to do. Only takes 2 rounds of tying.

Little explanation
Pic 1: over all pic

Pic 2: so we top the plant, sometimes take a clone, to promote axial growth

Pic 3: then we bend the main stem over to get the light to the side shoots and let em grow nice and big

Pic 4: then we take the large side shoots and tie each one out to the sides.


This last one really spreads out the canopy allowing light to get to the lower leafs and so that each shoot isnâ??t competing with the others.

In pic 3 I numbered two of the ties we do

The one of the right centers the plant over the pot. (kinda hard to see)

Sometimes, if we remember, weâ??ll plant the clone right against one side of the pot so once itâ??s bent it is nicely centered over the pot and doesnâ??t crowed other plants.

Iâ??ll post some pics of real plants next

YEa, i will post the pictures tonight i'm a busy fellow

We also dont always top the plant. The difficulty is to make sure the terminal growth tip dosn't dominate, so you have to keep it tied quite low.

check out third pic in post #51 for an example

you can see in the last pic how the plant can start to crowd the others
