Little lollipop and defol

I'm not a fan of that term

Little popcorn growth like that, remove.

Very nice roots. ;roc
Seems you are dialed in now?
Thank you, finally got some roots that look decent.

Pretty much Dialed in now, just upgrades to make.

As long as it doesn't pour too much, canopy environment is pretty dialed too, just in-cconsistent swings.

Root zone and sterile dosages are dialed.


Rain seasons.
 
I'd change the ratio but can't since different stages.

Next time, Need to go with clones or all fems for symmetrical consistencies across the system, plant at the same time.

But now I understand the balance and concept so now I got it for the next run.

Do a better sog next time.

It seems that something complicated gets simple with innovative minds and something without a lot of tech to recreate...anywhere...everywhere if materials are as cheap as they say.
Like how technology has shrunk into smaller more efficient devices throughout history

Chopping this down soon, hopefully moving into a 3BR apartment in the next few weeks, pending approval.

I really need to get 0-N flowering salts before I grow again next time, my favorite plant of this bunch is showing N toxicity and hampering bud development, but the maingoal was just to learn HPA, hopefully things start working out better for us.


Want to hook up RO water +oxygenation before I run HPA next time.

Also somewhere along the line the big plant self-pollinated or there was a male/some pollen around.

Roots taking a hit from high root zone temperatures with low oxygenation.

But surprised they still growing ok just slow in uncontrolled consistent environmental parameters.


I've been cutting some buds off for smoke

my rez temps have been slightly climbing in this heat as well.. what is the highest acceptable root zone temperature? like when should i get worried?

Off the top of my head, maybe anything above 74, 75-80.

If the plant is already established and has a healthy root zone, it's probably fine, but when conditions are sub-par and lacking oxygenation, that's just a invitation for stress/anaerobic bacteria.

I'm thinking if you're at 80F~ and you're DO is like under 6 you're roots may not be happy and aerobic bacteria may be.

I lowered my light to run it closer at less intensity, for less heat, but then it just heats the black tote up.

I want to get fully upgraded at the other place and run a proper HPA, more pressure, better nozzles, maybe put the nozzles at the bottom to cloud up to the roots, it would solve some problems like roots blocking mist, but cause others to remedy.

oh wow thats a bit higher than i expected. i've been 72-73 the past few days. i was thinking of maybe insulating my plant sites and recirc tubes. it's heating up from the grow area, my lung area is under 70.

I think @GrumpAzz runs his res at 74, with mycos, "basic"/average " bubbling"

His roots look damn fine, no issues arriving there.

So anything above 76 without myco or 02 Injection/higher DO levels, is POSSIBLY inviting problems down the line (anaerobic bacteria) from my 'HPA" experience.
 
You want to balance that cells growth and division, against "bad" cells growth and division.

@Stoneyluv

Want the plant to grow as fast as that temperature (metabolism of plant?)
gradient on cellular division allows, compared to growing "negative" bacteria, in the Root Zone.

I am old, older than thought in your species, which is itself fifty times older than your history. Though I have been on earth for ages I am from the stars. My home is no one planet, for many worlds scattered through the shining disc of the galaxy have conditions which allow my spores an opportunity for life. The mushroom which you see is the part of my body given to sex thrills and sun bathing, my true body is a fine network of fibers growing through the soil. These networks may cover acres and may have far more connections that the number in a human brain. My mycelial network is nearly immortal, only the sudden toxification of a planet or the explosion of its parent star can wipe me out. By means impossible to explain because of certain misconceptions in your model of reality all my mycelial networks in the galaxy are in hyperlight communication across space and time. The mycelial body is as fragile as a spider’s web but the collective hypermind and memory is a vast historical archive of the career of evolving intelligence on many worlds in our spiral star swarm. Space, you see, is a vast ocean to those hardy life forms that have the ability to reproduce from spores, for spores are covered with the hardest organic substance known. Across the aeons of time and space drift many spore-forming life-forms in suspended animation for millions of years until contact is made with a suitable environment. Few such species are minded, only myself and my recently evolved near relatives have achieved the hyper-communication mode and memory capacity that makes us leading members in the community of galactic intelligence. How the hypercommunication mode operates is a secret which will not be lightly given to man. But the means should be obvious: it is the occurrence of psilocybin and psilocin in the biosynthetic pathways of my living body that opens for me and my symbiots the vision screens to many worlds.

Since it is not easy for you to recognize other varieties of intelligence around you, your most advanced theories of politics and society have advanced only as far as the notion of collectivism. But beyond the cohesion of the members of a species into a single social organism there lie richer and even more baroque evolutionary possibilities. Symbiosis is one of these. Symbiosis is a relation of mutual dependence and positive benefits for both of the species involved. Symbiotic relationships between myself and civilized forms of higher animals have been established many times and in many places throughout the long ages of my development. These relationships have been mutually useful; within my memory is the knowledge of hyperlight drive ships and how to build them. I will trade this knowledge for a free ticket to new worlds around suns younger and more stable than your own. To secure an eternal existence down the long river of cosmic time I again and again offer this agreement to higher beings and thereby have spread throughout the galaxy over the long millennia. A mycelial network has no organs to move the world, no hands; but higher animals with manipulative abilities can become partners with the star knowledge within me and if they act in good faith, return both themselves and their humble mushroom teacher to the million worlds all citizens of our starswarm are heir to
