Does less terpens and flavonids lead to less entourage and less effect?
MyDearDiarystarted grow question 3y ago
I'm planning to reduce the amount of terpenes and flavonoids to lessen the strong smell by using fractional watering. I learned that due to the entourage effect, the overall quality of the product might change. Does anyone have experience or research in this area?

Is it worth practicing fractional watering, or is it better to allow more terpenes and flavonoids to be produced?

OG Kush plant is 47 days old, and won’t stop looking droopy and sad. I’ve tried raising the lights, lowering temps, increasing airflow, plain watering, nothing seems to help. The odd morning it looks perkier then droops again fairly quickly. Any ideas? (See most recent pics)Week 7
