  1. High Stress Training (HST) - DrCannaCanadian's "Lollipopping" Strategy

    High Stress Training (HST) - DrCannaCanadian's "Lollipopping" Strategy

    Our lollipopping strategy begins by dividing the plant horizontally into three even sections. We will then lollipop the bottom third of the plant one week before flipping to Transition.
  2. High Stress Training (HST) - DrCannaCanadian's "Bowling" Strategy

    High Stress Training (HST) - DrCannaCanadian's "Bowling" Strategy

    For the first part of our "Bowling" strategy, we defoliate all the fan leaves on the inside of the plant, but we leave all the fan leaves on the outside of the plant. The second part of our "Bowling" strategy is to top all the nodes of the plant at once.
  3. Low Stress Training (LST) - "7 Bowling Lanes" Strategy

    Low Stress Training (LST) - "7 Bowling Lanes" Strategy

    Since we water by hand in the Dagobah Frost Forest, Lane 3 & Lane 2 side branches are attached to clips instead of bamboo posts. This gives us more room to fertigate with our watering can.
  4. Low Stress Training (LST) - "7 Bowling Lanes" Strategy

    Low Stress Training (LST) - "7 Bowling Lanes" Strategy

    Since Lane 5 & Lane 4 are naturally perpendicular, we place 4 bamboo posts around the edges of the pots, and then attach the Lane 5 & Lane 4 side branches to them. Using more bamboo posts may make it harder to water by hand.
  5. Initial Topping

    Initial Topping

    We are currently looking into two strategies for initial topping. That is, we plan to start topping plants high above the 6th node or high above the 7th node. Topping is a very important process that directly relates to the total amount of flower at harvest.
  6. Final Transplant

    Final Transplant

    The final pot size is dependent on our desired plant size and our desired fertigation schedule. Larger final pots typically allow for larger plants and an increased number of fetigations per day.
  7. Intermediate Transplants

    Intermediate Transplants

    The overall goal of intermediate transplants is to establish a strong & robust root system that is evenly spaced both horizontally and vertically Growing a large even root mass is critical to developing a wide primary trunk which will support large side branches & buds.
  8. Packing Pots

    Packing Pots

    Packing all of your pots identically is very key to keeping your room on the same watering schedule. We always properly rinse and prepare our coco & perlite.
  9. Cloning

    Cloning

    Consistent sized clones are key. We want to bury a growth node about 2.5 cm (1.0") deep into the medium because it facilitates faster root growth.
  10. Low Stress Training (LST) - 7 Node Strategy

    Low Stress Training (LST) - 7 Node Strategy

    Node 7 side branches are not tied down.
  11. Low Stress Training (LST) - 7 Node Strategy

    Low Stress Training (LST) - 7 Node Strategy

    Node 6 side branches are not tied down.
  12. Low Stress Training (LST) - 7 Node Strategy

    Low Stress Training (LST) - 7 Node Strategy

    Node 2, Node 3, Node 4 and Node 5 are tied down using equally spaced octants. There are 45 degree angles between the Node 2, Node 3, Node 4 and Node 5 side branches when looking down on the plant.
  13. Heavy Topping & Heavy Defoliation In Veg

    Heavy Topping & Heavy Defoliation In Veg

    Currently, we are a few weeks away from flipping to 12-12, so we choose to open the growth nodes to light and air using heavy defoliation of the fan leaves. With defoliation, we are looking down into the plant and removing fan leaves which block lower growth nodes.
  14. MY Growing Experiences

    MY Growing Experiences

    We allow our plants at least 1 week recovery time before flipping to 12-12.
  15. MY Growing Experiences

    MY Growing Experiences

    A few weeks before flipping to 12-12, we choose to open the growth nodes to light and air using heavy defoliation of the fan leaves. We also choose to top many of the side branches which are in the top third of the plant.
  16. Step 2:  Find Light's Sweet Spot

    Step 2: Find Light's Sweet Spot

    We want to find the sweet spot under our light. Note: We define the sweet spot as the point under our light where the peak of the Peyote WiFi cola will be getting around 45k LUX with temperatures no higher than 25°C (77°F).
  17. Step 3:  Find Maximum Plant Height

    Step 3: Find Maximum Plant Height

    When we measure from the "Top of the Soil" in our pot to the "Sweet Spot", we find that the "Maximum Plant Height" for our Peyote WiFis is going to be 120 cm (48"). Recall, that if we exceed this value we will be in an overgrow situation.
  18. Step 2:  Find Light's Sweet Spot

    Step 2: Find Light's Sweet Spot

    We want to find the sweet spot under our light. Note: We define the sweet spot as the point under our light where the peak of the Peyote WiFi cola will be getting around 45k LUX with temperatures no higher than 25°C (77°F).
  19. Step 1:  Raise Light To Top Of Tent

    Step 1: Raise Light To Top Of Tent

    We begin by raising our Mars Hydro TSL 2000 light to the top of the tent.
