Observers' Flower Space

[Dirtbag]

trying to "force" a "senescence" "response" on the 2x4 flowers, "rush" em to "a" finish line.


colder temps, low/er RH, low PPMs, only feeding a little MagSulf, a pinch of Kelp.


more of a "fade", is appearing now, and the scents seem to be getting stronger/better (?)

It's maybe a bit too late now, but next time if you want to force senescence you can give them a high-ish dose of pk for a couple days, around 2 weeks before you want to harvest. Dry Koolbloom 2-45-23 is an old favourite for ripening plants on a schedule.

does epsom/mag sulfate count/ as/is half of that PK ?

so something like potassium sulfate would be better? or pot-sulfate+mag-sulfate ?

im my mind im in that 1-2 week window but idk, depends i guess ? i could wait or another week (?)

i member seeing you pull out that koolbloom bag at the end and i wanted to try/learn doing that as well.

did you also leave lights on 18hours or 24hours the last week or 2nd, at lower PPFD ?


thanks man, really appreciate you're information/exp

No, epsom salts are low dose mag sulphate. You just want a spiking powder with a relatively high pk ratio like dry koolbloom or big bud powder or similar. But you can use epsom salts right after it for the last couple weeks of low dose feeding and on its own the last few days.

Nice and clean bud. Look good. Love the new space.

just need to get a few more supplies/tools/materiels

get nails/thumb tacks to finish hanging all the power strips up and just organize it better

had to move things around and redo the cords/wiring, couldnt get to one side of the 5x5 as easily.

would like to "seal" that half of the living room and flower outside the 5x5, and veg in the 2x4.

Can you make or buy folding blinds? Or hang blackout curtains that look nice? Some room dividers are nice but pricey. Seen a few in apartments that share living/dining areas.

Thanks man, this is probably one of my best (canopy) yet so far besides the solo cup run

Trying to improve all aspects/optimize.

Get the most use out of my available grow space/sqft.
Really liked the SOG for that.

But, see how I do with other "methods/tek"

gotta stop letting the 5x5 dry back at 6-10am, way too hard/2many of a dry back ,i think is starting to do some damage

otherwise they still healthy, 2/4 are "perking" more-so than the other 2
