    The thing about your statement is that what you see (the conclusion) is the result of the science (the whole story, the plot, and the main players). When Joe Grow shows you a picture of his monster plant that he said is a result of changing XYZ to ZYX he made, you are missing...

    Well, I could have gone further in college but I was too busy GROWING, SMOKING and counting Jacksons. I do have to give MJ credit for my Masters, With a BA in Bio and no job prospects or real work experience back in the 90s, I had to stick around academia and keep doing what I had been doing for...

    Oh! that reminds me, we are on the internet. You could post cannabis pics all day and t means nothing to me. talk sense, something I can reference from literature, or replicate personally. I care less for CannaPorn unless you can somehow prove the pic is yours - Impossible on here.

    My apologies about moonlight. look for peer review publications on the subject you will find plenty. Indeed there is a time of year when photoperiodic time-measurements correspond approximately to high moonlight intensities. Studies published in National Academy of Sciences publications...

    If a friend, a Bro, says 18/6 boost plant growth because he can vouch for it, thats Bro Science, a method or act with obscure or no actual provable scientific basis is bro science. Hear Say science with anecdotal evidence sometimes based on coincidences and correlations, or the lack of a...

    Moon phases, huh? And Doctors performed and justified Lobotomy and gave patients Arsenic for decades. Heck, we used Led in paint, Asbestos in in everything all these things for eons until science came along. Those doctors and engineers too swore they were correct. But I feel ya, staying in bliss...

    @since1991 Starting with the solar spectrum falling on a leaf, 47% lost due to photons outside the 400–700 nm active range. 30% of the in-band photons are lost due to incomplete absorption or photons hitting components other than chloroplasts 24% of the absorbed photon energy is lost due to...

    The why in "why they adapt slightly better when you introduce dark cycles." is there is no experimental proof that plants do better with a dark cycle. The is however overwhelming evidence pointing to the contrary. An educated guess of what leads to a perception of plants seeming to " adapt...

    Any actual science behind this or is this more bro science? Because the actual science says no dark needed for a "a better plant system/structure." Photosynthetically Active Radiation, often abbreviated PAR, designates the spectral range (wave band) of solar radiation from 400 to 700 nanometers...

    " For science buffs, remember the two stages of photosynthesis in C3 plants and the three stages of photosynthesis in C4 plants. Apparently this is not common knowledge that Photosynthesis takes place in two or 3 stages: light-dependent reactions and the Calvin cycle (light-independent...

    Phytochrome is a photoreceptor, a pigment (enzyme) that plants use to detect light. They are part of the plant's environmental time cues, called zeitgebers (German for time givers). Some Phytochromes are sensitive to light in the red and far-red region of the visible spectrum. Many flowering...

    Can you explain how " root colonization" by fungi affects phototropism or any other plant physiological triggers?

    Without facts about my grow, it is presumptuous to claim you have more crop per year than I do. I've Been growing long enough for a kid to be born and out of college,and 6 years of Biology studies (Masters), to know I don't need to do all that seeding, sexing and jumping through hoops, old...

    Best strains currently available?

    It is my opinion that Choosing a strain so critical you almost have to decide for yourself. Things you must know when picking a Cannabis strain 1) Average height of mature pant Indoor/outdoor 2) THC/CBD content 3) Average yield Indoor/outdoor 4) Effects 5) % Sativa/Indica I grow indoor and...

    The need to include a dark period in the grow regimen is more ceremonial and ritualistic for some. Others attribute human characteristics to Cannabis plants, and speak as if the plants have rights and emotions. Some folks are over zealous about the whole nature thing and they have all these...
