    I found that if I play a recording of my ex-wife's nagging and complaining on a 24-hour loop, my plants get stressed .
  • @Jordy40Growing
    For outdoor pots I’ve done not watering stress. Unintentionally. And wow the terps were insane and the trics went pretty crazy to.
  • Finally some real knowledge! Still learning. Stress and Hormones lol always flush unless you're a soil organic tea person... Sparkling weed sucks.
  • @drgr33nUK
    The key to unlocking thr full potential is to use biostimulants to trigger SAR responses without stressing the plant at all. I've been using a mix of Chitosan, Salicylic acid and amino acids as a foliar. It makes a very noticeable difference after a week of application. I'm supprised Athena doesn't have a biostimulant product like this! It would save me mixing my own.

    Back in the 80's early 90's nobody knew about pH or proper feeding or nutrients and we had beautiful monster plants. What's up with that? 🤔
  • @cheddardavis5818
    I’m a simple kinda guy. If Chris Durand says I should be doing something in the garden , I’m implementing it
  • @joshcoyle6223
    Hps maybe for something of scale , but my 1st proper led (quantum lm301b) made my setup go to next level. I used to do 3x400w then 2x600w , now I've got 3x300w quantum boards . I don't have to worry about fresh bulbs or how to effectively get my room under 100f , my quality went way up and my yields up avg 40%.
  • So sick of people saying "good" genetics. When they need the right genetics for the environment. Especially when most breeders selling "good" genetics give very little info on the plant. Different cultivars for different environments. To expect one cultivar to grow in all climates isn't gonna work. So find genetics for your environment. And of course most only talk of indoor. Flushing kills the brix levels. Fruit and berries loose taste when getting a lot of rain around harvest kills the brix levels.

    Some times i think y'all are straight genius 😊 no really though. Like if i wasn't told some of these things, honestly i don't think i would have ever come up with
  • @diegomontoya796
    Running hps snd mh for the whole grow this run. One side will get one or the other, middle overlap gets both. Im excited.
  • Does Athena offer any guides or tables for deciding EC relative to water use efficiency (WUE) or VPD? Makes sense to run high EC in a sealed room with lower VPD, i.e., low transpiration.
  • Honestly fade stress is the best, when you let the sun flush the plant. So don't chop early.
  • Would anyone have any suggestions on how to cause the late stress recommended if using biobizz organic line?
  • @drekosoul934
    What would yall recommend i feed my plants daily 🤔
  • @oklagrowma9186
    Hey guys I run a commercial grow here in oklahoma, I'm using proline and the gals love it i would like to talk to yall about stacking and flushing more
  • @gmone7925
    Try rooted leaf nutrients carbon based plants grow insane
  • @chugginbeers
    So go for bulk with stress free environment up till week 6 of flower and then slightly stress?
