Fluxing It Up One Last Time! The Flux To End All Fluxes! LA Style!

I joined 420mag just so I could follow this thread. Thanks LA

Well that's a damn nice thing to say, so many thanks indeed and welcome to 420 Mag, the best green corner of the interweb :)

Your just in time really as on Wednesday I'll be potting up my 2 candidate's and topping them , starting their fluxing journey! Then the one that is the weakest will be used for the closed loop circular flux of sorts!

So yep welcome and thanks for making this your first post! ;)
 
Heyyyyy LA how are ya brother? Everything ok in your world? Just swingin by & had to say hey! Peacceeeee:volcano-smiley:
 
Cheers Pennywise :)

So folks Mr Dirt had an idea a while back and its a damn interesting one! Basically running a moderated flux, running her into a loop shape then actually grafting the 2 main ends together to create a closed loop plant!

Well as I've a cl of new girls going for my big flux, I'll use which ever doesn't make the cut for this experiment! So it shouldn't be that long before we have something else fun going :)

Congrats on the MOTM. I see you talk about a closed loop plant. That wood be real interesting. I wonder it by doing that if the growth hormone auxin will be equally distributed thru out the plant and make each secondary top become the new terminal top and really take off. GL and I'm looking forward to seeing this experiment come out with different colored buds on the same girl. Keepem Green
 
Hey Norcal :)

Yeah the closed loop should make some shift of the plants hormones and create an interesting growth prospect! This graft point will need to be a long section and bound extremely tight, as the plants own growth will be working against the bond point. So I'll make a type of harness out of some cane and wire to subvert the growth to different sections of the plant whilst the graft attempt is taking hopefully!


Now I'd also like to talk about splicing of roots??? I'm wondering if you could graft root systems together? (I KNOW DAFT IDEA ALERT!!!!) :) Just something that popped in my noggin and thought I'd but it out there! :)
 
The roots to a plant is like the heart......I bet it could be done! :volcano-smiley:
 
Hey LA, hows life. Green I hope. just stopped by to check out your fluxxing video. Great tutorial. Just imagine time you could of saved by doing it sooner. Thanks a bunch.:thanks:
 
So peeples im having a hard one at mo hence not being around much!

So in garden and flux news, I've been lazy and not potted up my 2 new candidates for the huge flux. I have though carried on with the original, all be it shoving her straight into flower with no vert.

Hi Light, nice pics. As for no vert, been there done that and who am I to penalize you for not being around much? been there done that too. We all get a little lazy and sometimes life dictates that we have to do other things. Getting ready to start again with a two month veg as it's gonna be a small setup and finished by the end of mar 2017.
 
ok I feel dedicated and read all 21 pages of this thread. love your style and it is very similar to what I have been doing my last 2 grows.

keep it up and I will keep checking back.

thanks!
 
Still going to be a hella plant. The stretch with give ya all the vertical growth you should need for nice colas. Girl look great. Keepem Green
 
LA,

I'm so glad I found someone who likes grafting and espalier as much as I do. I was interested in how this would work with cannabis long before I ever ventured my own grow. I'm doing a "FluxTier" experiment right now inspired by your grow and my own curiosity.

I wanted to show you this link. My great grandpa used to do this and other similar things with fruit trees back in the early 1900's and that root system grafting you were talking about made me want to show you. Check it out!

I think that you could make a young plant from seed nice and stretchy and then bend it over into a lower case "n" shape or supercrop it twice and make it an upside down "U" with two right angles. This would give two tap roots and two root systems to feed all of the future bud sites. Not to mention having two stems should make for an awful sturdy base and shouldn't slow the growth down more than topping would, right? I would probably cut it above half (so the plant thinks it needs to keep sending nutrients there) of the uppermost mature node at a 45 and apply rooting hormone before burying the tip OR just dip the tip in rooting hormone, bury it, and let that clump of growth points turn into root?

Anyway, your information is inspiring and we all appreciate your detailed knowledge sharing.
