Fimming and Findings
ok, well all the ladies got F.I.M.ed today. so far no significant differences have arisen in growth rates, however i have noticed that the Triacontanol (even the lowest dose) seems to increase phototropism quite a bit.
im using T5s for vegetative growth. since they have next to zero heat i lower the lights to about 3-4" above the plants. this shades the outer edge of the plants at the perimeter of the lights footprint. on all the TRIA dosed plants the leaves on the outer edge that are shaded (but not the inner illuminated edges) have angled themselves to a near vertical level (praying some call it) and are now getting more light than the plants that were not dosed with TRIA, which have horizontal (not praying) outer leaves. which is what brought me to the conclusion that TRIA increases phototropism.
