Madmax growing with Dragons Flame Genetics

Can’t remember what this is called.it’s been awhile since I’ve had it in my room..it’s nothing bad though

edit: I remember……variegation..pretty cool huh!

 

[SSHZ]

"Variegation is the appearance of two or more colors in the leaves or flowers of a plant, typically caused by a lack of chlorophyll. This color variation can stem from genetic mutations, environmental stress, viral infections, or chemical treatments, and it requires special care, such as providing bright, indirect light and pruning away green-reverting leaves to maintain the plant's unique coloration."

yeah I got my money on genetics..from what I’ve read it’s usually the result for recessive mutation of a primary gene necessary
for chlorophyll production.and goes on to say..but if they can't produce chlorophyll why do they have green, you might ask? Turns out, the mutated gene is part of a gene family with partial redundancy between genes. So when the primary gene is inactive the secondary (or tertiary, or w/e) gene will be activated to produce chlorophyll, at a given frequency, resulting in green sectors.

2 weeks down..getting close to pulling them out to stake so I can position the branches where the plant will benefit the most.I’ve already started taking the 2nd and 3rd sets of leaves from the top branches to allow some light through.I’m going to try something a little different to postpone taking a heap off while they are just starting to bud.my goal is to try and get to day 21 when stretch has just about wound up then give them a good trim,but as I have found out before it doesn’t always workout like that but I wanna see if they get bigger because I haven’t slowed down there growth.switching to canna classic Flores very soon.

Hi guys.this is my new home now so the show must go on. ..this grow will continue on from over on …what was it called….I’ve forgotten already .the 6 girls are still going strong..on day 10 now so the show won’t b far away from starting.another 4-5 days I’d say.plants are staying short but that has always been the case running these lights.I do think topping them beginning of flower does slow,delay the stretch which is exactly what I want.I don’t like going under 19’ to light as it seems to stress the plants and the buds will grow a little foxtaily,knobby like with the leaves tacoeing up..,a nice white frost here tonite.that just kills the rh in the room keeping it under 50% so the dehuey isn’t on tonite..sitting on 550ppm on 500 Hanna scale and gradually creeping it up.phing 5.93. Using 4 gal pots.70/30 coco/perlite with some chunky perlite added .b more like 60/40 now.3 litres of feed everyday ,plenty of runoff. looking good
