I was worried about fungus but they weren't that far along and it's dryer now. The nice thing about 100 degrees is water dries so fast. If it picks back up I'll throw some plastic over the top. I also hope the teas (foliar apps.) are helping there.might wanna keep a eye open for bud rot on the early bloomers with the rain and all. Spoken from experience.
I think the heat and sun would cause more oils and such as the plant protects itself. Just my opinion, though.
If you really want a controlled study, then move indoors lol.there may be a trade off...
more sun increasing chem profile while breaking it down at the same time...we need a controlled study.
Not very scientific but trichome production is predominantly in the fall. Sun exposure is shorter, the uv is less due to the sun's lower angle, and the temps are lower. All of these factors would reduce deterioration to the oils. At the same time, might it affect positive changes?I was worried about fungus but they weren't that far along and it's dryer now.

I've heard about the "oils" increasing with the sun/uv but don't know if it is true. Contrarily, I believe someone (sorry, will find who it was EDIT; it was kill your ego) on my thread mentioned using shade cloth reduces the total yield but improves quality. This sounds likely due to uv deterioration but don't know for sure.
I'm referring to my grow conditions. While trichome production may increase, I'm thinking my area's sun is just too much. My grow is mostly under shade cloth with the edges exposed in some areas. The more exposed areas just looked a little more beat up this last week after the monsoon weather cleared away. I tightened up the edges and added a missing piece to the open west end and it sure feels better in there now. By that I mean the conditions are better for this type of plant. I'm basing that statement on my experiences in the hort world and lots of supposition!I thought it increased trichomes while the plant flowers and degrades it after it gets chopped. That is what I was taught many moons ago.
I heard something like that too but if uv rays degrade a molecule i doubt it makes a difference living or not. I remember reading about turning off the light during the last few days before chop to make it more potent.I thought it increased trichomes while the plant flowers and degrades it after it gets chopped.

sho would like to get a cut of that JillyHere's some pics you guys might like some with flash some without , enjoy

I think the Jillybean will be available to everyone once it has been fully tested (though it's looking pretty damn awesome chances are it will pass with flying colors)sho would like to get a cut of that Jilly
Elaborate please...Jilly bean is insane.. Mine grew like a fucking chandelier, my only issue was the smell of the bud.
