Well, in the “we’ll see how it goes” category: Haven’t been able to see how it’s going yet!

Yesterday I had a bad migraine for much of the day. Today I woke up with a fucked up shoulder. So examining plant 2 again just hasn’t happened. So it’s entirely possible that it’ll be fully pollinated by the time I can get to examining.

Ah well, trying to look forward to the next round. Excited / nervous about having 3 completely different strains (as opposed to 2 “probably related” plants), because I have no idea what the height of them is going to be.

I have a ppfd meter on my list to get as soon as I can (it is a long list ), so I can actually adjust my light based on numbers and not general vibes. I was probably being overly cautious on this last run.

Also, if anyone reading here might meet the criteria I listed in this other post, dm me!

I have an idea for an experiment related to HOCL, but won’t be able to run it any time soon. I would love to have someone volunteer to help me try this idea.

The things the other person would need:

• HOCL generator and test strips to confirm ppm (or willingness to use tablets to have a known amount each time)
• ultrasonic / “cool mist” dehumidifier
• Ability to make humidifier run on a schedule
• Ability to have an isolation / quarantine tent
• herms, males or ability to sts something

Basically some thoughts on ways to both prevent accidental pollination and avoid mold/mildew while doing so (which is where the HOCL comes in). I can explain in more depth if anyone is interested in trying it.

It’s based purely on “so this thing does this thing” and “that other thing can do that thing” “I wonder what happens if I combine the effects?” So it’s based on two possibly misunderstood concepts! If you’re willing to dedicate some growing space to testing a theory, let me know!

I don’t have the isolation conditions right now, and won’t for the foreseeable future.
