Why they don't ramify?

Swompu
Swompustarted grow question 5 years ago
Hello everybody! These are my firsts plants, I don't understand why they don't ramify. It is caused by low lightning due to bad exposure? I don't see any other source of stress (good soil, volume ok, no dehydratation nor floodin, I just can't evaluate EC and PH at the moment)TNX

give it time.. she's just begun. Cree CXB3590 are excellent cob led -- you can do much better, nowadays. umol/s umol/s * J^-1 These are the specifications you need to compare lights -- in addition to the footprint they have - i.e. how many units you need for your area(s). As far as led at this moment in time -- Samsung LM301B (H or B, but both exactly the same) diodes are teh most efficient thing you find out there... at .7A you'll be around 3umol/s*J*-1... high end hps are 2.2? leave them in the dust with a better spectrum and significantly more efficient... wasting electricity on heat for no reason. QBs or strips are awesome options. If they mix in some red (660nm) even better. you are armed to compare quality lights... go get'em! umol/s (how many required per your area -- e.g. if a m^2, that's actually your "PAR" otherwise mist be relative to it with a little applied algebra) and efficacy umol/s*J^-1

i mention .7A.. you'll likely run higher unless you are a spare no expense kinda person. even at 1.4 you are ~2.8 efficacy (not typing that damn thing again i can type all this faster)

It sounds real good but you're going to need extra sunshine and the correct spectrum for growth!!! I started this new grow with an LED I'd previously bought but changed it for the Spider Farmer SF1000 which is proving to be perfect for what I need, which is one or two plants...... Reply good value too!!! Best Wishes Bud 😊

Hi thanks for your reply! I'm not using artificial light at all, I was trying out to grow them at the window, now I started a 18L pot, but at same conditions. I'm going for some Cree CXB3590 or CXB3070 in autumn with measurement tools. What do you think about? Thanks again.

Hey bud, I would say that you definitely need more lighting on her as she's stretching up too much, you can tell this by the long node spacing! Also you should go with a bigger pot size next which will allow more growth on top. 😊 Get yourself some measurement tools!! 👍 What light are you running?
