Increase your trichome production, without stressing your plants

This info has been posted before, I mean no offense but the boards here are like the movie Groundhog day where everything is re lived again every day in posts. One can never keep a topic alive because it just falls off the radar and then someone new comes along and revisits the subject.It's worth the read. I don't feel like re typing or cutting and pasting.

If we use that standard, we'll have about 3 post a week. Not many alterations and you could use the same post at the end of almost any thread. That's the nature of any forum. When I haven't heard about it, it is new --- just as new as when you learned. And so it goes ........

Hello all, haven't been around in a while, moved, did brand new build (20 X 1000) For those of you who remember me, I know my stuff...and am always willing to learn. I have to say when reading this post I'm surprised you guys haven't mentioned chitosan. This is soooooo effective. I came onto by chance in talking amongst master growers and this is something they swear by. I can say from first hand experience, this product will never be out of my arsenal. This is an organic compound (as it's been explained to me) that sends the message through the roots that the plant is under attack.
Now, every strain is different - we all know that - so with that being said, different effects will happen with different strains. My kushes... leaves thicken, stalks thicken, literally looks like the plant is on steroids. My sativas (that I don't run anymore - to finicky) didn't really look all that different. Would show some pics of this crop but I had a fuse blow on my ac 4 days ago and have been in a mad rush to rescue everything. Room was at 140 for a couple hours, lights on, Co2 burning --- what a mess. Anyhow, I'm resetting my room 1 and will post pics in a week or so (after get done washing buckets- yay) with the effects of chitosan on my kushes. I'll have some grape in there too along with headband so you can all see the effects of what it does. No exaggeration, the leaves feel as thick as a sham wow :) Didn't want to try to spell chamoie or however you spell that thing that soaks up water when you wash a car. I'm high, guys/gals, give me a break. :)
The only product that I have found this to be in is scorpion juice which I believe now is discontinued and bud factor x has replaced it. Not too sure on that though. I use the bud factor x in the res and foliar with scorpion. Results are second to none. Hopefully this helps some people out. I'm not trying to promote advanced by any means cause I use products from them, H&G, Botanicare and GH. I just want to try to help my fellow growers out with a product that rocks my gardens world. Now, I have two completely sealed rooms room with Co2 at 1400 running at all times. My temps are whatever I want them to be as I run a 5 ton. I usually run around 76-78, If I want faster growth in the first week I'll hit temps up to 80-85 and boost Co2 to counteract any effects. That being said, I can't say that this will work for everyone cause I and my buddies only run sealed rooms, don't know if it will make a difference, but it wouldn't hurt to try. Research chitosan and the scientific effects it has on plants in general and you'll be amazed that no other nute company offers this -- that I know of. Good luck to you all, got go wash buckets and trim my expensive hay. LOL
