Do terpene enhancers work?

Rotstone said:
Thanks for the information. I did not know it was on the list of stop sales. I will definitely cease the use of it.

All you need to do is grow healthy plants from start to finish under good conditions. Cannabis will show itself. Let it do it on it's own naturally. Why do you want to grow anything other than the real thing? Good weed needs no enhancement.

That's what I do now. That doesn't mean I do not look for better ways to do things. Is this forum not for people to continue to discuss technics, methods, and products. No need to kick this dead horse anyway right.

If you’re really worried about increasing terps, start with other things first before adding unknown chemistry. A couple shots of sulfur in flower. MgSo4 and KSo4, stronger blue light the last two weeks, and reducing temperature at the finish should help.

I added 1/2 TBSP gallon media of that yellow pelleted stuff you get at the garden store in my outdoor grow and im fighting to keep ph over 5.0 (top layer soil then mostly coco below) just sharing don't over do it.
What about supplements like Terpinator or Tidal Shellfish extract that tricks the plant into an immune response supposedly?

That yellow pelleted stuff is sulphur and it's used to lower the pH of soil. I use it on my Blueberries since they like acidic soil. It takes awhile to breakdown. If adding sulphur to a cannabis grow magnesium sulphate "epsom salts" or potassium sulphate are better choices and are water soluble.

As for supplements like Terpinator or Tidal Shellfish, I wouldn't spend the money. Chitosan is what's in Tidal Shellfish.

Yes merlin said couple of shots of sulphur i thought he meant straight no ice :D
I use a coffee grinder and it powderizes well.

Terpinator is KSO4

Very true i forgot. It smells nice but probably a waste of money. Good when i was a noob and didn't research the ingredients. I have bud candy or w.e they call it exactly from greenleaf (megacrop) too which is a much cheaper powder. It seems to work better than just adding megacrop at flower but i only have a few good grows under my belt.
 
Your plants do all the work, at my job we use a product. at home i do not. 1 i cant get affodable testing in my state. 2 good terps are basically a outcome of plant health and if you opened all the right doors when needed so that the finished product has highest concentration of terpinoids... kinda a BS answer ...

i like to feed a shit ton of sulfur or even burn sulphur and have noticed a dramatic increase in smell/flavor. Sulfur aids in creation of enzymes and amino acids as well as creation of chlorophyll...

which in turn affects terp profile...its all relative, healthy plant and root zone and optimal enviroment... gonna have a good terp profile.

When do you give it to the plants,how long and what dosing

Since i switched to led i Think there is much less taste (samsung strips 3500k)
Flood and drain with hydrocorn

Can i juse sulfur in my hydro flood and drain system

I juse activ chlorine to sterilize my N.solution

But maybe hpo would be better?
I dont know if the active chlorin is 100% safe for me

Never done it in a hydro set up...it gets everywhere so, idk

I do know budswell is a liquid product you can use during flushing...and that also seemingly works...i never actually done a side by side and then have people review
