1-4% of Substrate volume for "Vegetative" Growth. /steering

4-8% of Substrate volume for "Generative" Growth. /steering
For fertigation "shots"

Let's say 2L = 2000ml × 0.04 = 80ml shot size every hour or so for "Generative Steering" (@4-8% sub volume)

Damn those roots are fricken pearlescent lol. Good job bro.

Thanks man, appreciate it.

Been trying to get the water just right.

Hell yeah man I can tell, leaves also looking fricken perfect. You are getting this crop steering thing DOWN lol. I know about it but I don't have the patience to delve that deeply into it yet. For now I just water till runoff and if no runoff, add another fertigation event. I end up giving them more waterings during flower than veg, like now Im up to 10x a day, which kinda should be the opposite right? Less fertigation events and more volume each event for generative, and more fertigation events of less volume for vegetative?

Starting to get the hang of it maybe, there's other variables/context to it of course, but it seems the main "gist" of it is the watering methods/practices.

"Veg" steering = fast dry backs

"Gen" steering = slow dry backs

I'm not too sure besides, the water needs increase a lot more in flower anyways

Less fertigation events and more volume each event for generative, and more fertigation events of less volume for vegetative?

Correct, as I understand it.

If you want "vegetative" (canopy/leafs) growth = fast dry backs

"Generative" Growth = "slower" Drybacks between fertigation events.



But, just in case, don't confuse the terms for the growth stage, those terms refer to what kind of growth you get when using those kind of fertigation practices.

Interesting, would you ever want generative growth in the veg stage? Isn't generative growth = Flowers?

Interesting, would you ever want generative growth in the veg stage? Isn't generative growth = Flowers?

for example, if you have a plant in the flowering stage that’s growing slowly or too compact, you can help it stretch out and increase internode spacing with the crop steering technique. (veg)

so during "stretch"/transition, i was doing 1-4%veg(2%)of substrate volume for fert-volume amount

now after the transition and buds have set, im doing 4-8%generative (4%)fertigation volume in mL every hour or so to the plants in 5x5.

but as my lights are on at night currently as it was summer, time to change them to day next runs, i cant stay up all day all night every day every night doing all this every hour and everything else.

sooooo, i just flood em out every couple of hours some nights then.

worn the fk out

 

[Observer]

if you want to try and help "tighten" it up - nodes

Isn't generative growth = Flowers?

yes, so they'll just grow more/tighter nodes (bud/flower sites) then, till lights flip (decrease on-time) or so, (?) i suspect.


i also suspect one can just lower the lights closer to the canopy during "stretch"/transition to try to help reduce the "stretch", internodal/node/stem/cell/elongation if one needed/wanted, has anyone tried doing so?

 

[Observer]

maybe christmas harvest, as 60 days from here will be jan 1 basically, and we are passed transition and on bud set.

Better phone/camera

Generative steering schedule tonight (4-8%)

Doing 4% substrate volume, so 80ml of fert solution every 30 minutes to an hour or so, lol.

Depending how dry/light the pot is.

Probably water again, 80ml~, at 1 or 2am

Some of the pic previews aren’t showing but clicking on them works. They look like this until clicked on. Data got reset last night so…probably not me.

Idk why it does that but it only does that when I use a higher mega pixel phone/camera and setting.

dry when i woke up, gave them 60ml of water.

 

[Observer]

Gotta water.


120ml each for first hour or two, till it gets dryish again

Actually, what ended up happening was, I Had to water till run off this time, which is only a solo cup or less.

~460mL - as it starts to dry back by the hour or so, ill give it 80ml thereafter. (4% substrate volume)

Im just not meant to have that piece I guess.

Got others I've not broken for years
