Damn. How long is that taking?
With the flora flex tops, maybe 10-15 Min a room.

Kinda goofed on buying the flex tops, I guess I wasn't supposed to... and pex,filters and solenoids for both rooms may have been the same cost.... only a few weeks wait though. At least they look good.

Are you folks allowed to use pex? Here is it not allowed for industrial facilities, along with regular sheetrock

I'd have to check that out, i could hardly think they can regulate what we used to feed our plants(the pex will be on the tables)
We are required to use 5/8 fire retardant sheetrock, and no pex
For feeding the plants, pex or tubing may be ok... i dont know

Not idea what they classify a commercial grow as.

We are under agriculture rules, I only kn.ow a few, plus all the wierd LCB rules.

The farms out here are kinda unregulated in a sense...not many agencies are checking

Pretty obvious, but i am in the marine industry. They classify us as a shipyard.
EPA/industial regs are difficult....
Wouldnt be surprised if agricultural rules were less so, even with indoor ferts, equipment etc

ok if i can get sam here to stfu and stop spamming large pics of his resume, maybe we can actually have a decent intelligent fkn convo for a change about this stuff.
The five principal plant hormones · Auxins · Cytokinins · Gibberellins · Abscisic Acid · Ethylene
auxins and cytokynin are when in veg and lst, and topping, blah blah blah.
gibberellins and ethylene are big during flowering stage.
do you know what you're doing to the hormones when you defoliate? no you don't stfu, you just know how to post huge fkn pictures to scum up the thread.
You wanna spend money on fertilizing, then chop it all off and throw it away that's fine...but don't fkn sit here and proclaim to all these new growers it's a good way to do things. It YOUR way, and just cuz you've done 30k plants that way don't make it the right way. Plants are probably like "what the fk are you doing asshole we need those" and ur like i'm a master grower...30k plants....
i dont care if you continue to strip ur plants for the next 30yrs, all i care about is the new growers that will read this and think "gee this guy sounds and looks smart i should copy him"
no...no you shouldn't

samwell knows what is on about and I think a lot of growers would do well to follow his advice, the op showed a plant stripped of every leaf, sam leaves a good 20% this is perfect, good airflow and the light gets to the lower canopy, you have to get the timing right and only do this to healthy plants that react well, some plants really don't like this.
