I solved this unsolvable riddle..

Yes, it was my fault that I did not understand it right away.

When I watered the plants, I was guided by the PS in the drainage. The PS was always 6.5. But recently.. by accident, I measured the drainage PPM and was shocked. The PPM was 3000. For my mineral solution, this is terrible.. the working drainage is 500-700 PPM. Where these PPMs came from after the frosts, I have no idea! I have never seen anything like this in my practice.

Over the past week, I have watered twice, 80 liters each))) I am now flushing the soil with water very generously. So far, I have not been able to bring the PPM down to 1800. I think that 2 more waterings of 80 liters will solve the problem.

Sorry for everything, I'm just not used to working in such extreme conditions.

Electricity has been fixed, the light has already appeared.. this is good.. for now.))

I am not showing the plants yet, I plan to show them on Friday, after the next watering.. I hope I identified the problem correctly this time!

In the meantime, I will show the work of my friend, which I showed earlier

You see that there are very few dry stigmas.

So far so good there!
I think it's the cold that made the plants slow down metabolism and EC stacked up in the medium.

Cheers!

Hello!

Sorry I didn't have time to show yesterday, I was very tired, I didn't have time. But the photos are from yesterday...

The last watering was very.. furious))).. I watered from 4 pm to 1 am, in total I poured out 100 liters of water.. At 9 pm the PPM was 1150.. I didn't stop and continued.. As a result, by 1 am the PPM dropped to 700, PS 6.5. These are the working indicators in my setup. Now nothing should interfere with the plants to grow.

In comparison with the previous photos, we see that the rods have grown.

I have not turned on the sodium lamp yet. Now a soft fluorescent light is installed.

You can see that the leaves are still bruised, but there is still a tendency to improve. but this is right after heavy watering, the plants haven't recovered yet

The plant that is in a small container looks perfect, which means that the honeycombs will soon be like that too.

Let's hope for the best!

@Sedan , it is friday, do the plants look that bad?for some reason i woke at 4:45am no alarm clock just dreaming of warm weather and plants and how you were doing!i will check your home place!
Bro, excuse me.. I was very tired yesterday. Besides, my wife and mother-in-law returned from the hospital yesterday, I spent the evening with my wife. I haven't seen her for 2 weeks. I was completely alone. I forgot how to talk.))

Yes, sometimes I am surprised by the incredible chemical processes that occur in the soil.

Yes, I agree with you, after the cold weather the plants shrank like this, as you can see in the photo, and this continues to this day. Although before, after each watering, many yellow leaves appeared. This time, before watering, I tore off all the yellow leaves. Now we see that yellow leaves no longer appear. This is great progress for me. I really hope for improvement!

The picture is of Folke K Skoog. A Swedish/American plant physiologist who's mostly known for co-inventing MSO(Murashige–Skoog-medium) that's used globally in cell and tissue cultures.

He was one of the first scientist to discover the first cytokinin kinetin. He was the first to make a stable semi/synthetic cytokinin called BAP(benzylaminopurine). He was also one of the first to describe the interactions between auxins and cytokinins.

And most of the base work was done back in the 50 and 60's! We've only touched the surface when it comes to our understanding of ourselves and plant physiology.

i have to agree we know less about plants and the human body than we think !

I immediately thought from the photo that this was a scientist, not a politician or writer. I don't know why.))

I'm hearing about this person for the first time. And it turns out that he was a pioneer in what we are doing now.

I miss him right now)), he would have helped me figure out the problem of crumpled leaves.))

There is another pioneer who did a lot to ensure that we could feed plants correctly - Liebig. NPK formula.

There are things in nature that are incomprehensible to the human mind, because nature is much smarter than man.

Things like cell aging. It seems simple there. If man could solve this problem, then people would live forever.)) Not forever of course, they could live for 200 years.

It is also impossible to reproduce sunlight, even the OSRAM company))).. It is also impossible to reproduce the color of blood.. with all sorts of technologies. No matter how hard you try, the color of the blood will differ visually from the color of the paint you prepared. In feature films, animal blood is used.

Yes, we do not know everything about human nature.. and most of the great discoveries were made by chance. This is when a scientist is looking for one thing and finds something completely different. If these were not accidental discoveries, then the human mind cannot calculate this.

In 1956, Wilson Greatbatch was developing a device that records heartbeats. Accidentally installing the wrong resistor in the device, he discovered that it produces electrical impulses. This is how the idea of electrical stimulation of the heart was born. In May 1958, the first pacemaker was implanted in a dog.

Today I installed a more powerful light.

Anyone who understands light can immediately tell what kind of light it is by the spectrum.

I took my favorite tambourine and began to read the spells.

I hope I'll be lucky this time and the plants will finally start growing.

See you soon..

There has been no heating in my house for three days now. Thank God the temperature outside is not very low... just below zero.

With electricity - it's bearable. The connection is satisfactory for now... for now..

Surely this is the first time you see such extreme grow.))) I'll be the first!))

We're holding on for now!

This time it’s a very serious test for me and my plants!

How warm is it in the grow room? Can you keep it warmer with more insulation and maybe staying in there yourself?

I have a gas stove in the kitchen. The stove is large and made of metal (they don't turn off the gas yet). I don't turn on the oven very much, the iron stove heats up completely and gives off a lot of heat - it gets hot in the kitchen. From the kitchen, it's a few meters down the hall to the door to the grow room. I open the door to the grow room, turn off the fan that brings in air from the street, and leave only the exhaust fan from the grow room to the street.

This way, the exhaust fan draws air through the open door from the kitchen, where it's hot.

This way, I warm up the grow room and the plants a little. But that's until the frost hits. We can have -20 and -30 degrees Celsius in winter.

I read spells, beat the drum, appeal to Kokopelli .. I call upon him to have mercy and not send us severe frosts.)) This is a standard procedure for me... lately.))

PS: as soon as American missiles fly over Russia.. 5 missiles that successfully hit some barn in Russia, the next day 100 missiles fly in response, then we sit for a week without light and heat. A couple more such strikes and everything around will plunge into darkness. I understand that sitting on a chair in front of the TV, munching popcorn, it is probably interesting to watch this from across the ocean.. but here it looks completely different!

Kokopelli appreciated the power of my spells.. the heating radiators became warm. Although in return I had to sacrifice part of my health and nerves to the sacrificial altar.))

My wife came and helped me in my difficult task..

Defoliation was carried out, and training in the silo grow method began..

1735552492251.png

The plants are a little bruised from the training now, but they will straighten up soon.

I'm really looking forward to this whole nightmare ending, I hope as soon as possible.

to be continued... maybe..

Tovarisch, I do not get any pleasure from watching others suffer. If it were up to me, America's foreign policy would be completely different but alas, I'm not consulted.

As for Kokopelli, he is also a Colorado resident! There are 800 year old images of him etched on the rocks in Western Colorado, along with many other glyphs, runes and images. I have seen them personally.
