That and I commented when he made the change about room temps when running LED, you gotta run warmer, in low 80's, to get the leaf surface temps up and in range with proper VPD. I'm no wizard of VPD, nor do I have that much environmental control to maintain perfect VPD but I do fine, and way better once I started running temps 82-85!! I think you get bigger night time temp differences too, so don't necessarily need cold temps to bring on fall colors, you just need the plant to experience greater temp differences....telling the plant winter is near. Might be hogwash, but in my mind it makes sense....LOL....and seems to be working in that direction!! This and some of the other ripening flush tips I got from you guys are ON POINT!!

..yup yupI think the cooler temps at night plays a part telling the plant along with the tritions that hey ! winter is coming !!! finish up !!!! I also think these 8 week strains are more like 10 weeks and your 10 weeks are like 12 weeks ...im gonna push my 8 week to 10 weeks ... get that massive fall colors ..I run 315w cmh now and love them ... soon im gonna switch to a 630w from nanolux ....(cheaper) and run 41k and 31k and have a full spectrum of light ...

Looks even canker than first!! I use the ROOTS Bloom Terp Tea week 3/4ish as a food source for my AACT!! Its micronized so it stirs into solution quite nice.....prolly way easier for microbes to make that crab available too. Crab meal takes a while to break down but an amazing must have amendment!! And kelp meal is just amazing and a must have for the shelf. Check out the rehydrated kelp recipe on Buildasoil, its a COOTS recipe for an instant kelp tea, I foliar with it when I do the tek. I can't speak on the Veg Terp tea, sure its dank, I just do different veg tea......do have a sample pack though......ROOTS has a few products I really like.

You definitely should use crab in your amended soil!! I do crab, kelp, neem as base then lighter additions of alfalfa and frass, plus biochar, kashi, and malted barley.....add minerals, compost, castings, peat and pumice, living soil gold!! With Buildasoils new feed schedule video, he adds enough extras That you wouldn't get bored during the water only style grow.....zzz zzz.....I base A lot of my methods off his videos too.

I too dig Trinity, but don't use as much now.....I want to do a comparison of it to Zues and see the difference as they are both catalysts.
im gonna have some left over tea and thinking using it im my amended soil to get the microbes going ... thinking throwing in gro - kashi ,frass , barley... already have bokashi , biochar , castings .....

I think any high quality compost is good for any stage, it comes down to how long you brew before application. The 24 hour mark is usually a good balance of bacteria/fungi/ protozoa. Most compost have balanced NPK too, like 1-1-1

That's the one thing i do not do... amened my soil (#4 for me})..im traumatized from a bad grow a big one back in the day trying to make super soil smh....lets just say i stay in my line when it comes to that I feel I get almost the same reaction from my plants by making tea's
I amended #4 soil ... thats all I use .. now on seedlings ill use a fresh bag #4... but with clones its amended , which Tim has a good video on doing it ...matter of fact im getting ready to see where my ppm/ph is right now on the soil ...
