I would be one of them amd this conversation has indeed been very enlightening. I need to get warmer. Thanks.Also, if you immediately are thinking "Sweet! Imma crank VPD way up and grow these Ladies hard", well here is what will happen.
If you actually have the ability to photosynthesize that hard, fly at it, but in reality you will suck water out faster than the system can get nutritious water in, and plain soil water sucks in instead, and you end up starving your plant.
Speed is directly linked to the ratio of rootball size/ability to the amount of foliage it can support.
This is how I can prune out 75% of a plant and everyone gasps, but the plant says thanks and excels.
I lower VPD, let the plant slow down, hack it back, give it a day or 2, then speed up the giant rootball (giant on the ratio to foliage after the hacking) to increase nutrients as the plant accelerates.
My high brix readings allow the remaining foliage to supply the microbes with sugar.
If you did this with low brix it would be one of those opportune moments to add a sugary tea to offset the lack of exudates.
Thats why I give my 1st tea at the same time I remove all the side branching.
Things should be starting to make sense to the new growers now as too whats going on in the plants life.
