Surf wax light experiment

Cnutt37 I couldn’t switch which ones are in veg and flower so your just getting em both as I pump them out, I was mainly experimenting with the lighting but due to the dramatic different so far I’ve decided just to see how big I can get the one plant in the 4x4 and just put the plant in the 2x2 in flower after 8 weeks from sprout. It is currently a week and a half into flower and not stretching as much as I hoped. The other tent though is out performing my expectations. It’s running at a slightly lower RH but similar temperature, but is probably twice the size now since I moved it to the bigger tent with the mammoth 6 bar a month ago. I moved it into the 20 gallon pot yesterday after needing to water it daily, while the 2x2 only requires water every 3-4 days. The 4x4 is running around 550 ppfd average across the tent while the 2x2 is around 750 ppfd at the moment. Once increased CO2 is added both tents will be increased slowly until the slightly sign of light injury on the highest node. Both plants were topped once at the 3rd node. Both have been slightly defoliated and lollipoped as they grow to minimize, a heavily lolipoping and defoliation on the one currently in flower 6 days before flip. Will lollipop and defoliate again In a week when stretch seems finished.

Cnutt37 Small tent in flower got lollipopped a defoliated, big tent in veg got defoliated and lollipoped aswell to increase airflow through the canopy and direct growth upwards. Taller branches bent using training wire cut into S clips to even the canopy out and direct growth outwards.

Cnutt37 Defoliated and lollipoped the small tent in flower the day after the last update, buds are beginning to develop during week 3 of flower. Pretty much everything is the same in the big tent, moved the light up 5 ish inches to keep the ppfd at the top of the canopy right around 600. The plant started showing the slightest signs of light stress cuz I increased the intensity from 500 to 600 then forgot to check the light intensity for a week and the plant and upwards growth put the canopy around 700 ppfd. After the next watering I’m gonna strip the big plant down a good bit on the bottom cuz it’s getting bushier than I’d like, even though the humidity is only sitting around 60% at the moment. After defoliation/lollipop ill pull the plant out more with some plant wire.
