After all that defoliation, Trichomes look to be ramping up, got my first smell after disturbing a few nugs, was very strong and pungent, far more citrus than I'd expect from a GDP, going to keep temps at a daytime high of 77 for now and hold off on any attempt to color. Preservation of that beautiful smell! Normally this is the point where I would keep up temps to around 84 to utilize a little of the co2 available pushing photosynthesis. But I just can't ignore how much better it smells keeping it to 77 max, last couple grows I feel I have been pushing the temps a bit more been unable to recreate the ultra strong smell of chapter 3, as the plant goes into full trichome production mode I shall start lowering temps again. Still too early though as bud growth seems to be on a roll, multiplying overnight. Keeping night temps within a 10-degree bracket of daytime temps. 15w air intake (directly outside tent 1 inch from floor) to root zones. 1 main fan that turns on when "lights on" to help mitigate heat radiation from main led lights. 2 circulation fans pulling air from the bottom of the tent and pushing it vertically. 1 smaller fan blowing on airpot/base of the stem. 1 air intake from outside (top of tent fresh air outside) setup to Inkbird variable on/off timer. 1 main exhaust to outside linked to turning on at very top of a tent whenever humidity goes above 45%rh. 1x 7000btu AC unit rigged to turn on above 80, with 5 min safety switch (can't turn on/off more than once in a set time) Currently dosing 10 hours of 280nm/380nm per day. In the picture I called "THIS ONE" observe the edges of the sugar leave that has taken damage from the UV, it purples the tips, and it looks as if it's been cured it's hard to describe, none the less trichomes keep layering on top of one another on these spots, I had noticed it on previous grow too, just keeps piling on the fluorescent patch until you get these dense little clusters Truthfully don't think these will purple this time round, we will see

Love your thinking. Sweet idea. I will be watching the progress of these. Love all the companion plants. Nice looking garden.

If you are interested in the plant's circadian clock, then check out Far-Red photons: "The R:FR ratio of direct sunlight is about 1[.]5 during most of the day, but it approaches 0[.]6 or so during twilight when the atmosphere preferentially scatters blue light and the sky turns yellow and red. This only lasts for half an hour or less, but it is important because plants use these changes to synchronize their internal circadian clocks both with the24 hour day and the seasons. This involves a burst of gene expression activity that is controlled by phytochrome.”

@Ultraviolet, Sometimes I forgot to plan out the best photoperiod schedule and suddenly find myself dramatically shifting the timer once flowering begins. I wonder if hitting them with sunrise/sunset R:FR would alleviate any circadian confusion.

@Natrona, this was my 2 year old dragon willow bonsai, I placed it outside a few weeks back on a sunny day, forgot and it got smoked in a snow storm, thought I'd lost it. Plonked in a copper rod and she came back to life, frankentree.

Do I understand it right: Your going to fill a giant pot with a soil mix and air that soil with a 15W fan??
Ultraviolet

@Metatronix, Well that's optimistic :)! Every little helps. I found with such a big pot it would allow for unrestricted growth of rootzone, but the water was sitting deep in medium and with the pot taking up so much space it was very hard to keep the medium warm & with very little air getting to where the roots needed it. Prime breeding ground for some bacteria & fungi. Always been fond of the idea of automating a grow tent for the entire grow, start to finish, the challenge with auto watering was over-watering, this could also dry the medium enough within a timeframe to prevent the conditions for the bacteria n fungi in the first place. Originally had some ideas for regular-size pots with airstones but then I got stoned and bought a 100-gallon fabric and here we are.

@Ultraviolet, I 💚 the idea ...it really could increase the yields IMO. It would revolutionize the flowerpot industry kind like the Autopot but for soil.
