Bolting has occurred in my current lettuce crop, this means that the plant has flowered before producing a lot of leaf, the plants are a lot smaller and don't yield as well but let's just say our next lettuce crop is on the way when the seeds knock off early.

In terms of cannabis, this can actually be advantageous for us during a Spring crop, we wish to get them to flower prematurely in order to get a crop in before the June solstice, since the flowers are what we're after (usually not the raw leaf), we can obtain small harvests of high quality early on in summer because of bolting as seen with some of my Blackberry plants

That's not fair, you have first hand experience with bolting!
Hehe hehe :circle-of-love:

QUESTION FOUR

Question 4

Do you do every watering with molasses, or once a week? And is too much molasses treatment bad for soil?
 
Once and week and yes...I don't k ow why as I have never grown soil
 
Question #3


3) Bolting is when a plant late in flower begins to reproduce by making its own seed. When a cannabis plant bolts late in flower it begins to produce yellow banana shaped pollen sacks from the buds containing female pollen that may be used to produce feminized seeds.
 
Q4 Too much molasses is certainly a possibility which could lower overall Brix levels of the plant. We need a balanced system between the bacteria and the sugars that are driving them at the root zone. If the concentration of sugars are too high at the root zone, than the over all efficiency of the bacteria will be lowered, Hence a lowered Brix level, which really could be a slight decrease in quality, and increased vulnerability to pests.
 
It's a tie for me between Trichomes and RL because RL was correct, but the reason why plants bolt is due in great part to heat. Cool weather plants like lettuce are limited to how long the temperatures remain under 70 degrees. The plant in order to survive will send up an immediate spike with flowers and set seed, rendering the food plant very bitter and inedible.

So who answered correctly? Tie, I say.
 
Who was the first answer about the plant over flowering and producing seeds for survival?
