Just noticed your far red strips.They're only to be used for a short period at the end of each day.New reserch has come out which shows it does nothing.I was checking as I was planning on buying uv and red strips but I'm not anymore.I suspect all reserch but if they've got it wrong then it wont be that wrong.If do anything it will be minor.

@oldskoolkool, That is a ton of words to say, "You are using contradictory nutrition systems and likely harming your outputs." There is no right answer on organics/synthetics. Even academics fully advocating for only organics admit that at scale synthetics are required for soil health over time. The issue is you are building this amazing soil web, then you also throw these unnatural chelated nutrients in there. Depending on the chirality of the chelated nutrients, you are making a hellscape in the soil for your microbes. Much like you can get beef from McDonalds or a steakhouse, you can get your advice from anywhere as well.

@ATLien415, Thanks for comments

@oldskoolkool, Just wanted to continue our discussions because again you opine on lighting on the site but have historically been anti-intellectual/anti-science. Please reference the "New reserch has come out which shows it does nothing." Red wavelength photons have their place in grow rooms, as illustrated by the red diodes on every horticultural LED fixture. Depending on the exact wavelength and intensity, red photons can be used to control morphological behavior (stretching, internodal spacing, and so on). Otherwise, the natural decrease in white light during sunset and the angles which photons must travel through the atmosphere together act to result in an increase, relatively speaking, in red photons. This is a biological marker/impetus for flowering in outdoor or naturalized cannabis, by the exact mechanism of the phytochrome cycle. If you "suspect" something based on your experience a few decades ago growing outdoors, then we can do science ourselves and test your hypothesis. Science is as accessible as you want it to be.
