In today's info-packed episode, we're talking how to optimize your grow environment to maximize plant health and yields. Jason shares tips for mitigating mold and mildew issues by dialing in your VPD, utilizing silica additives and foliar sprays, and understanding strain-specific growth factors.
We also explore advanced techniques like using monopotassium phosphate to accelerate flowering times, gradually lowering light and CO2 levels late in flowering to reduce excess sugars, and the pros and cons of under-canopy lighting.
Lighting is a hot topic, as we field questions about dimming LEDs through the growth cycle, matching PAR readings to growth stages, and how different strains respond to light intensity.
HVAC is in the spotlight too - a viewer asks about short-cycling compressors and Jason explains the advantages of variable frequency drive systems, especially in greenhouse settings.
We discuss spiking EC levels a week or two before harvest, calcium chloride vs calcium nitrate, and how to maintain substrate moisture overnight for optimal growth.
There's so much more in this episode - pruning timing and techniques, canopy density considerations, greenhouse climate control, and the latest in cannabis industry events and technology.
