First of all, I imagine I'm wasting my time because I'm responding to someone that considers YouTube a reliable source for information. Never the less, here goes!


It has been shown time and time again that the whole idea of "Stress" producing plants that are somehow "better" is just bullshit. You can believe whatever you feel comfortable with - I don't really care. The point is, if you do some real research instead of just asking some anonimous stoners for thier opinions; you can weed out the misinformation. Remember, "Opinions are like assholes, everybody has one - some just stink more than others!"

There is one exception (if you can call it that) to the "Sress" = bullshit rule". That is the introduction of extra UV-B light waves (which can be dangerous in exessive amounts) have been known to produce higher amounts of THC bearing resin. I suppose you could consider that to be "Doing something "bad" to the plant in order to get "good" results.

**I am merely curious if you took the time to review the article I posted, a peer-reviewed study of abscissic acid application increasing end THC content of both male and female flowers**

I agree in part, if you examine the PAR (chlorophyls & accessory pigment absorption) spectrum both UV-a and UV-b sit well within the active absorption spectrum, but they are obviously damagingly potent wLs. If the trichs & accessory pigments can downgrade/filter/focus the light they may be acting as more than just sunscreen, IE UV, as with a balanced spectrum in general--provided adequate intensity, is part and parcel to IDEAL spectrum for C. s varieties. Just saying, adding UV-b isn't doing something "bad" its one of the "Best" things you could do, as you were alluding to.
I have heard theories that UV-b actually drives the production of cannabinoids, but it appears to me that it is more of a genetic response. I like to think of them as another set of "accessory pigments"--if ya catch my drift. Picture this: HPLC analysis of harvest time variation confirms a spike right before lights on (probably equivalent of sunrise period) and the downslope starts to really gear up around 10-11, lowest at the end of the day. This might explain the 1-3 day dark stretch some people use. The plant keeps thinking another UV rich day is coming, and the old cannabinoid deployment never degraded and is thus still present.
I would like to present another example where stress does not equal BS:
Supercropping or forms of stem abrasion will stimulate the release of PGRs as well as a buildup of hard tissue which will in the end provide the grower with higher flower count with ideal spectrum (reflected off leaves is green/yellow dominant obviously, barring leaf senesence lending to prettier colors of course) as well as a network of branches which are knobby and of superior durability. Supercropping is definitely stress.
Just trying to show that a thread may appear useless at first, but folks like us can meet here, and of course share with others if we so choose.

p.s.
UV-c is damaging to plants & humans, and all intense light is bad for your peepers---don't forget the shades yo

    quite frankly, after reading the abstract, i thought "this shit is really above my pay-grade". So i didn't really go any farther. To be honest, i've never heard of abscissic acid, so i have no idea of what toxicity levels were involved in this study, or for that matter how "stressful" the whole operation was. I will assume that the chemical treatment mentioned amounted to what we might call a "low stress" condition.

    I'm a big believer in low stress methods of cultivation, which is what i consider supercropping and various other methods to be.

    Stem abrasion, while it is not all that popular as a technique, may indeed have some beneficial results. I'm of the opinion that the advantage to be gained is far outwieghed by the potential of negotive results to the plant (infection or whatever). Just how much of a benefit can one really expect by abrading thier stems, you list a few beneficial results, i'm asking to what degree does this happen. I'm thinking the results may be noticable to a measurable amount, but that the amount is really quite negligable in the end. I could be wrong, i've never really tried it myself.

    just saying, adding uv-b isn't doing something "bad" its one of the "best" things you could do, as you were alluding to.
    yeah, that's why i said "one exception (if you can call it that)".


    I guess the bottom line is that I really do think that some low stress techniques can be benificial. But come on, I have to draw the line at cruel and unusual punishment (like "Stem Piercing" for instance).

    Anyway, have a nice day mipainpatient, it's always nice to converse with someone that knows what the hell they're talking about!    ​
