cherryjuana test run - Page 4 - VerdantGreen - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

yeah we probably all suffer from lack of space, i certainly do!

plants can sense when their lower leaves are shaded compared to the upper ones. they do it by measuring the red to far-red ratios, and when they sense the lower leaves are shaded they tend to stretch up towards the light

Bird, what's your lighting situation like in regards to distance and watts per square foot? The internodes look quite large for a plant that size. Trying to figure out if the cherryjuana have an amount of stretch I'm not used to, but it looks from the photos that the lights could be closer. I'm extrapolating from incomplete data.

hey mr S

bird mentioned on the last page that the plants were all quite squashed together in veg and that is likely what has caused the extra stretch/internodal distance.
check the link i posted above

mr sterling, Im using a 150w hps for veg right now, with the bulb vertically suspended just above the canopy. as VG noted, during the start they were okay but I have ran into crowding issues with fans from other vegging plants(mainly the MIS freebs, stupid fans on these). these were the last to be germed out in the group but they caught up to the rest surprisingly fast. I was hoping FIM'ing would of redirected some of that energy but it seems like it didnt in some.

whoop! always good to know

still chugging along, a few have responded well to a little LST, with one being not so happy and forcing its tiedown free so it could continue stretching upwards instead of outwards. flip isnt too far off, so hopefully Ill get a few more side shoots stretching out their legs. on one bad note a stupid rodent got in thru my intake screen and chewed up a few stalks of vegging plants, luckily the fucker only got to one of the CJs, one of the male leaners with zero side growth. still got lucky number seven though, pics coming.
