Exceptionally High FECO Yields

This is more rambling thoughts. I like this here Cali Orange. :bongrip:
The information gleaned during tonight's research implies or could imply that BR mediated rescue of shade avoidance is Auxin dependent. What does @gr865 say "easy peazy". Why didn't I think that?

This would suggest auxins could be part of the equation solving for lost time waiting for the GRN to re-establish homeostasis after photoperiod adjustments.
 
This is a bit premature, and is provided as only food for thought. In my attempt to be both transparent and honest I remind folks that I have been in contact with the manufacturer of the ester utilized so far in this study and they are watching our progress.

It would not surprise me if our level of satisfaction enjoys wide spread support, it would invariably result in a rise in material cost pricing. Said differently, if we do real good the cost of a 1/5 gram of this ester when married too cannabis marketing will drive up the prices. Get some while it's cheap.
 
Garden Update;
The big ladies are looking good. In my excitement with the new chow for the plants I fertigated my Northern Lights cultivar without remembering she was on her eighth day of induced drought stress. She had barely began registering any real LWA so we doubt the threshold was satisfied to induce the juice. Nonetheless she looks scrumptious. Flower Day #52

The Cali clones on flower day #20 are doing extremely well and so far sharing the 300W LED both plants look satisfied. This will not last, and the larger specimen will be relocated under the HID when the left scrog comes down. Timing is tight for this to play out as I plan.

GSC Monster clones are on veg day #13 and since @InTheShed scooped me how slow these grow I have modified the clone closet to accommodate longer term guests. The monsters are still trying to find their groove and growing funky.

The next run consisting of 3 Northern Lights seedlings and one slow to germinate Girl Scout Cookie seedling. They all four emerged overnight and will be our first MC (Megacrop) and the medium will follow @farside05 recipe. Still waiting on the perlite to arrive. Got a huge box lined with plastic at the ready.

The seed experiment has been hampered by my lack of proper equipment. @Skybound uses a heat pad I think like what is in or under aquariums. My modem is not big enough for the multiple tests. So far only H2O control seeds (2) have germinated. But again I am scrubbing the study until I get a better handle on temp control.
 
Happy Veteran's Day Maritimer! Congrats on being called for the follow-up study as well as their interest in what you did and how you did it. Opening minds? Let's hope so :thumb:.

Can you remind me what GRN is again?
Thank You Shed,
The GRN is an acronym for the Genetic Regulatory Network. Kinda like the plants operating system in computer talk, but more like our central nervous system in the organic nature of it. The GRN controls when and where and what synthesis will take place. This includes two of our favorite cannabinoids that are synthesized when the GRN has been satisfied that it is time to produce the cannabinoids. The GRN will not tell the seedling to produce THC, rather it will instruct the seed via hormonal level changes to maximize root development and vegetative growth until further notice. I will stop.

Sorry for day time ramblings. LOL
 
I am gonna squish the stick out of some flowers in about 14 days. :)
 
It is snowing outside so I fired up the electric fireplace and was listening to some Matchbox Twenty music. Cannabis trivia perhaps not to well known, but yeh I will share. In the far east about 30 years ago when purchasing cannabis, a common unit was a matchbox twenty. A empty matchbox with a bit of weed in it for twenty bucks. Now you know. :bongrip:
 
I remember the match box with Mexi in it. Cost was $5 in 1975.

Bought a Tin of pot in 68' in Chicago, a Prince Albert tobacco tin with manicured pot in it, no seeds or stems. About two zips for $25, it was just good ol' Mexican brick pot.
Was in the AF stationed in Illinois, and that night I went to hear a group at a club. Big Brother and the Holding Company with Janis Joplin. What a treat!
 
That was a sweet night for you! I used to sell ounces of redbud that I cleaned up the seeds and stems for $40 bucks. The custy has to promise he would buy only from me. That was 1979-1980
 
Ahoy 420;
It has been brought to my attention our friend from the Biology Department at Cornell University has retired and will no longer be contributing directly to my investigations. With my warmest wishes for a green retirement, I thank Professor Pete. This gentleman persuaded me to follow my intuitions and challenge conventional academic approaches towards cannabis research. Through his network of colleagues and graduate students the influence of his knowledge will continue to impact our world of study.

Enjoy Peter
not so sure yet about aba
 
Meja study notes;
“Studies have shown that genetic regulatory networks (GRNs) consist of modules that are densely connected subnetworks that function quasi-autonomously. Modules may be recognized motifs that comprise of two or three genes with particular regulatory functions and connectivity or be purely structural and identified through connection density. It is unclear what evolutionary and developmental advantages modular structure and in particular motifs provide that have led to this enrichment. This study seeks to understand how modules within developmental GRNs influence the complexity of multicellular patterns that emerge from the dynamics of the regulatory networks.”

IMO evolutionary advantage needs to be recognized as a motif. If this is conveyed in the GP lineage the advantage is real. Not supposed.

“However, the identification of gene regulatory network components that, when modulated, will increase plant productivity or resilience, is challenging, yet essential to provide increased predictive power for genome engineering approaches that are likely to benefit useful traits. Here, we discuss the opportunities and limitations of using data obtained from gene coexpression, transcription factor binding, and genome-wide association mapping analyses to predict regulatory interactions that impact crop improvement. It is apparent that a combination of information from these data types is necessary for the reliable identification and utilization of important regulatory interactions that underlie complex agronomic traits.”

Show me the money boys. This study was all math and no plants.
The math looked promising , but show me something green. :bongrip:
 
Ahoy 420,
A couple days ago I was chatting with my friend the “Stoned Otter” mentioning my new scissors I was using on initial trim duty. I complimented the new sheer’s ability to wipe off clean and smiles were all around. That was then.

Today, the more serious work of manicuring flowers is being undertaken with far less enjoyable results. Everything sticks too everything. Everyone I have ever met calls my phone. Mom, has decided she no longer has dementia, and has instructed me to fire her doctors and medical POA (that’s me) for failing in the fiduciary responsibilities entrusted upon them. My pooch Tennessee must have eaten something he should not have and has a case of the runs. The cat is acting like he wants to help get sticky. How in the heck do folks like brother Sky with perpetual harvest’s and glove duty not become disgruntled old growers that stop trimming? My hands are wrinkling from being in the gloves.

Dang, I love this.
 
Cali Orange #1

Days in Flower 51

Target 15% moisture.​

Wet hanging 724 grams no stalk or roots

Leaf trim 234 grams mulch for compost

Branches & Buds 490 grams

Manicured flowers 66 grams 22% moisture transfer to jars burp down 5% more .

Sugar Trim 41 grams 22% moisture transfer to ziplock pillow bag.

Fourteen Days of burping for flowers to cure sweet. The normal target of 20% moisture was changed to 15% because immediate needs will consume this harvest without worries of long term storage.
 
Expand; IMO evolutionary advantage needs to be recognized as a motif. If this is conveyed in the GP lineage the advantage is real. Not supposed.

If as indicated, the GP lineage is established (and this has repeatedly been accomplished), then all evolutionary advantages are applied not supposed. The genetic backbone of cannabis is ancient in molecular design and confirms the relatively young genotype was grandfathered evolutionary genetic advantages.

What this means to me.
When the first gardener put it here, he or she made sure this plant has all it needs to benefit our ECS.
The plant was put on earth around the same general time humans showed up.
It was put here to help us. :love:

I believe this more than I believe many other things. There could be no other reason that we have receptors in our bodies perfectly matching what this plant produces. We still have so much to learn.
