A quick look at Cherry Cola (left) and Pound Town (right) under our ViparSpectra XS4000 14in from the highest cola at 60% output on the dial.
Using the apogee MQ-610 with an ePAR sensor we can see par outputs at various locations on the canopy. As we move from the top down we can quickly see how PAR levels drop leading to larfy buds and less density because they are receiving less light. This highlights the importance of using various training techniques to keep your canopy even and maximum yields.
Locations lowest on the plant receive the least light, that is why we usually defoliate the lower 1/3rd of our autos leading up to flower so the plant can focus its resources on the top colas instead of larfy pop corn buds where the plant receives the lowest amount of light.
These two have received very little training other than leaf tucking, the bottom 1/3rd will be trimmed up this week as they quickly move into flower!
Curious what training barriers you encounter and how you overcame?
