morning morning

yeah the ripen is good but i dunno bout that good lol a full 7 days on the stuff before you notice anything and even then you would only notice a difference if you had grown that same strain minus the ripen before.

i had used it for years but pretty much always on the same strain exo, and with a full 2wk ripen i.e cut all nutes at day 42 that exo is ready at day 56 so with a short veg and a wks dry u could do some pretty quick grows with a high end product as ya end result.

just smoking a soma's amnesia haze, fuck me its some strong smoke and bag appeal is fucking wicked the bud is a frostfest lol aint blown away by the flavour but its certainly not anything you would call a bad flavour, wasnt flowered for very long either and at this strength with the bag appeal very nice strain.

i have heard people say of the ripen too that yes it makes the buds look ready quicker but if you scope it the trichs aint ready like they should be, i use to always need a quick thing, and it deffo does make shit quicker and imo tastier and is a cheap nute.

but its not everyones cup of tea and like i say have seen it said that if you scope the buds to see if the trichs are cloudy,amber etc then they look early where as the bud is looking ready??? i never scoped anything if it wasnt ready in 8-9wk max it still got pulled regardless.

I see you guys going on about "ripen" I'm assuming you man the GHE version?

If so don't you guys think it impacts on flavour?

When I've ran it before (still got a 1litre bottle never used) I've found the taste is very different vs not using it. Don't get me wrong it helps to speed up the finishing of a plant but I think because its so heavy on sulphur its imparting some flavour in the finished product.


I may run it again on a test case with 2 current clones I've got, to make sure that the taste test isn't compromised.


Just curious what you guys think?

i and some friends used it in a previous life lol for a number of years on the same strains deffo speeds things up and imo improves flavour not impairs it? i have smoked the same strains many times with and without and been a smoker along time.

well i just went and changed my fans out and got all the veggies out the loft and into my tent as i only had a few inches left in loft b4 they hit the light, the tent is a little crowded for now and due to heat issues i have only a 600w hps and a 300wcfl in there but in 2 weeks the 4 blue dream will be out and the 6 new girls will have all the space to themselves, when i get a cooltube i will be running a 600 & 400 hps in the flower tent.
