The UVB I’ll start week three after the stretch for one hour a day. The UVA can run the entire light cycle. I have a UVC sanitation light I used to use for pest control. Some leaf curling would show up in 7-10 days but it never killed the plants or damaged the buds. It was on a 15 minute cycle. I might try it again just turning it on for one minute twice a week for stress. The T5 UVB this will be my first time. ChatGPT is helping me dial it in.

Here’s a new picture of the Green Gelato
I think it smells much stronger now than a few days ago before I put the mint next to it. Actually, all four plants smell stronger, but with this one, it’s significantly more so.The other day I found two other spots where mint grows, this time not water mint, but I’m not yet sure exactly which kind it is. These are already flowering and should probably bear seeds soon. I think I will save some of them for future experiments and plant them in the garden.
It looks really beautiful, do you think it’s because of the mint?
I found this article:
https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adu2392
honestly, it’s too complicated to understand, so I asked for help to simplify it for mere mortals.
- Justifies Acidic Imbibition in Heat Germination (Accelerating the Cellular Clock)
The study demonstrates that epigenetic aging breaks methylation locks and releases latent pathways [LIII].
- The application: By soaking the seed in heat with acidic reactor water loaded with isovaleric acid and Shilajit [LII], we force an instantaneous induced epigenetic aging in the embryo.
- The result: The seedling is born with the “molecular traffic light” already green, skipping months of waiting to begin transcribing volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs) and the skunk profile (321-MBT) from its first leaves [V, LIII].
- Validates the “Phantom Sting” in Old Leaves (Systemic Effect)
The paper confirms that apical meristems (growth tips) are protected against this DNA disintegration to preserve offspring [LIII].
- The application: This instructs us to never touch new shoots or tips with Chitosan (COS) or hormones [IV.2].
- The mechanics: We must apply micro-injections and aggressive pH 8.5 sprays strictly on large, lower leaves [IV.1, IV.2]. Old leaves, which already suffer from natural epigenetic integrity loss, will amplify the alert and send a jasmonic acid hormonal signal towards the buds, forcing an outburst of pungent resin while keeping the tip genetically clean in case we want to take a mother clone in the future [X, L, LIII].
- Teaches us when to apply the Paprika Root Shock
Epigenetic disintegration advances over time [LIII]. The moment of maximum methylation weakness occurs when the plant transitions from photoperiod to flowering.
The Green Gelato is a cross between a Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies and a Sunset Sherbet. The other strains in the tent do not have mint in their genetics and are not smelling as intensely at the moment. They are all on flowering day 41 today and, because they have the same flowering time, should be equally developed in terms of scent. Seen in this light, I assume it could be due to the mint.
I found two more pictures here that describe how cannabis terpenes are used for defense
The stronger the plant’s terpenes are, the better the plant can defend itselfThat’s great, I’m watching a short YouTube documentary about something similar, about how they behave in their environment.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YM2hgkDjGkQ&t=11s it’s in English
Also, I put an aquarium air pump inside the inoculum, and a transparent hose for gas extraction, and through condensation with the hose, I was able to separate distilled liquid. It seems to be a kind of distillate of alcohol and acids along with the 20 volatile sulfur compounds. Apparently, it has an EC of 0, but it maintains its properties. The AI recommends using it for germination. I’m not sure, but it seems like a good idea. Do you have any thoughts on this?
I achieved this by placing a heating mat under the inoculum bag, putting the aquarium air diffuser under the substrate, and connecting the hose at the top. When I saw condensation, I wondered what it was, and the AI told me it was distilled water with acids and volatile compounds with an EC of 0. I’m seriously thinking about using it for germination; it seems like distilled water.
Also, I’ve been reading a lot these days and learned interesting things. I read that DNA protection is much weaker during the transition to flowering. Day 1 of flowering and the first few days are key to trying to activate them, as that’s when the plant reprograms and decides how to flower based on the environment.
Like you, so far I have the feeling that it does work to apply aromas from other plants or to cause them wounds with biostimulants like chitosan. Today I will take comparative photos in 2 or 3 hours when the lights turn on for the plant treated with chitosan and Pimentón de la Vera, simulating a fire.
I don’t trust my own assessment 100%, so it’s better if we look at it more and give our opinions.
What definitely works 100% is triacontanol… it’s very strong, and the plants’ response is too. This is the second time I’ve used it sprayed on plants in the veg stage, and it gives them tremendous vigor.
When the effect wears off in a week and I can reapply, I’ll take before and after photos. This product is incredible, and for 7 dollars… it will last for years.
When you have time, you might want to check it out; it’s very related to what you’re doing. It’s all scientific; they mention things like communication through environmental odors to transmit danger, ask for help, attract insects, repel them. It talks about nettle, tomato, a small mention of cannabis and tomato for being especially sensitive, jasmonate, about the age of plants, how young ones don’t produce them and often die because of that when attacked. They also highlight important things, like how they can only do it during the day with photosynthesis, and that’s why certain insects only attack at night. So, as you can see, it provides interesting clues.
I’m cooking right now and after that I have to take my daughter to soccer practice. I will watch it when I get back.
Well, 06/17 today I just put the 4 regular Afghan seeds I received to germinate, since it’s not good to use distilled water, I used chlorine-free tap water which has never given me problems. I added 0.20ml of the distilled inoculum water, which should contain butyric, isovaleric, and acetic acids, plus the 20VSCs which are the volatile compounds 321-MBT, methanethiol, dimethyl sulfide, furanethiols.
In addition to ethanol and ethyl acetate as alcohols.
It really smells like farts lol, it’s only 5ml, and it looks like distilled water; in fact, it comes out of that process through the hose where the air comes out.
This way, it will hydrate from the start with a small part of these molecules from second 1.
In about 3 days, if they germinate… I will transplant them into 1L pots with normal substrate.
Phew… nobody really wants to smell that!!![]()
I have all sorts of companion plants. Marigolds, St. John’s wort, Red clover, Nasturtiums, and even more garden buddies. At some point, I got the Defender, Nutrient, and Scarepack seed mixes from Zamnesia.
At the beginning of the season, I simply threw some seeds into the bed, and this is the result now.
Every year, I also throw a handful of forest soil into my raised beds.
Many thanks to you researchers for this really interesting topic! ![]()
This morning I finally found time to watch the video, it was very interesting.
Today I hung a lavender branch under the lamp. Due to the warmth of the lamp, the scent should emerge faster and then spread well in the tent through the fan. I am curious how it affects the plants.
Just now I put three pine seeds in a small flowerpot to germinate them. I hope they all sprout, then each of them will get their own pot.
The gnome is keeping an eye on things for me.lol, surely no one dares with the dwarf there.
I think those plants with such aggressive smells must affect him, I’m having a lot of problems with the heat but at an exaggerated level, 42ºC for the plants, horrible, they don’t die by a miracle honestly… at home it’s already been discussed that the tent can’t be put anywhere else (in truth my wife told me here or nowhere) so I don’t know what to do, putting A/C just for the plants is not an option.
today I trimmed the side poles of the tent by 5cm, to move it 5cm away from the window, which heats up a lot because it was in contact, I hope it doesn’t happen again… if my wife sees me putting an air conditioner on the plants, it might be the last thing I do, so I’ll have to manage.
how interesting about the pine seeds, I find it super interesting, I barely have time with work and home, I’m dying for a vacation.
for now, I only germinated the aafghan, 4 out of 4 germinated successfully, but… they’re going to grow buds and will still be in the germinator at this rate, I should have transplanted them yesterday, but I didn’t have time, I should have done it today, but I ran into the tent at 42ºC, and I dealt with the tent when I got home from work, and it’s already 11:00 PM lol.
honestly… I’m a disaster sometimes.
I love your plants, they’re also absolutely camouflaged, it’s great. They look very beautiful, the truth is I love them. I’m sure they’ll give a
all dead, good thing I used the CBD trash seeds and didn’t throw them away… lol, I knew someday they would be useful for something hahaha
impossible to use it before the month is complete, it’s still too concentrated.
even so, I came up with ways to use it locally, burying sticks in the inoculant that absorb the compounds, and then sticking them into the pot. This way I will
Thank you! ![]()
Yes, I’m excited. I recently grown the Gorilla Z in 4 L fabric pots in the tent, max height 70 cm, and now I want to see how big they will get outdoors. ![]()
The left plant is a Gelato Auto, both FastBuds.
It’s interesting how the plants in the bed fight for their space.
Maybe that awakens genes ![]()
Enough of that for now. I’ll post the raised bed here closer to harvest for the result. ![]()
