Smells like bullshitI don't know for certain but at $170 for a 1 litre bottle it has to be good shit right?
ive heard that stress increases potency???Its pretty much is going to come down to experience to get consistent dank results. A little time spent and a few seasons growing the same strain really improve your ability to interpret that plant.
Potency is stress related as well as genetics. Most plants I have grown have had the ability to be really potent. The more stress you introduce into the situation will result in lower quality buds. Density, quantity, and potency are all effected.
The best way to grow dank bud is to give a good girl the best environment possible for its growth.
my advice would be differant, dont give any nitrogen at all in late flowering the plant wants and is going to draw it from the leaves by late flowering to continue forming buds, iv found that to much nitrogen nuterients past week 4 of flowering will cause flowering to slow down and mess up the bud at the end, the plants wants to use the nitrogen and iv found you get little spikes of bud coming out of already existing buds and hence takes a longer time to finish and makes the budd far less aestheticlly pleaseing and it will never all mature at the same time.dont cut back on nitrogen during flowering, especially in the early stages....
are you talking 14 hrs of light?? wouldnt that cause herm? any other tips?all tips above r good but have u tried changing the light cycle at the end of bloom, in the last 3 to 4 weeks i do 14/10, i find it works a treat and have tested it too, do the same as i did, pull 1 out the room so it stays 12/12 and see the difference, u will be shocked, dont go ova 14/10 cause ive been told it can harm ur thc if the lights r on any longer, peace
I'd be very hesitant to try any of those things.Once flowering try scoring the plant with your fingernail a few times a week so its forced to repair itself with resin. Ideally you want the plant to believe its under attack and needs to protect itself. Once you have about 3 weeks from harvest or you notice those cloudy lil trichomes put cold water in your res if your using a form of hydro growing and cut your lights back even further to 8hrs daylight. On your last week or last 4 days cut the light out altogether and use no nutes untill harvest. A majority of times youll end up with a stessed looking purpish plant high in resin. This has worked for me in the past with sativas and indicas. lol if you gots a plant to mess with see if it gives you the results you desire.
GREAT advice.Tha main thing I haven't seen mentioned yet (Or I just missed it if it was!), is DON"T HARVEST SO EARLY!!!!! I bet 90% of the growers out there harvest prematurely because of impatience or they are working a perpetual grow and they HAVE to harvest to clear room for the next wave. Not to say that early harvesting is necessarily a bad thing, it just depends on what floats your boat. If you are wanting a really strong couch-lock stone, give your plants a couple of extra weeks in flowering, then cure it out good. You'll be amazed at the difference that little bit of extra time will make!!!
Good luck, dude!!!
