Light Addict's Quick Guide To Fluxing: Featuring The Original Flux!

[Light Addict]

Hey Earthbase, all is good Sorry if I was a little gruff before, its just you wouldn't believe the amount of people that try to disprove my techniques. Crazy really as I post all my results openly.
Looking forward to seeing an experienced grower such as yourself get your flux on!
Best of buds!

[Light Addict]

Mmmm! Nice indeed. Now my mouth is watering lol and Ive been out of smoke for a month or more now!!!!

Holy Grail Kush is coming along nicely in flux. cut off fan leaves yesterday and now my baby is going strong!

 

[SoundlessWord]

Tried this earlier today and snapped one branch in half (I could kick myself.) Taped with painters tape could find sports tape.
Its female sex appeared a week ago. while taping I was very careful to not bind her 'legs'; So she remain horny and pissed about it.

Been watching it like a sick child and I cant keep the stem upright, may just snap it clean.

Yeah fluxing needs to be started way early to be honest. I start training my girls so young some think Im crazy! yet it seems to work for me lol

OH and this aint a flux lol. But got me plant of the year so had to post a pic as havent in ages! .

 

[PeytonManning]

Yeah, the early cutting and training almost scared me away from fluxing, but I couldn't pass up the benefits. The plant seems to be handling it like a champ

 

[Light Addict]

They take pretty much anything training wise, I just like pushing the limits lol.

Jesus, MaryJane and Joseph, that's all I have to say about that plant.

Ok now I have questions:
The shock and awe had me.
What is the grow medium ( I use soil), nutes, light - type/wattage, size of pot, number of transplants?
how soon do you start training them?
CO2 constant or cycled?

I wanna do that too.

 

[Light Addict]

OK my friend, I use soil perlite mix. My monster girls were done with a ancient 400 hps in a tiny little alcove in my kitchen. Really cobbled together ghetto spot. My Co2 is just sugar, yeast and water mixed and used only during lights on. I change the mix once a week. The pot size is 20 litre. Nutes was the Plagron range, cheap cheerful and pretty effective!
Ill post some pics of spot etc if I can find them. Sorry its just I only have a phone to work from!

Although a flux gives more yield!!!!!!

LA, greetings to you. I hope your part of the world is doing great. As for me, my part of the world is very wet for the past week or so. Oh well, we will put up with whatever shows up. I have a question for you if you don't mind. I noticed in your original guide to FLUXING you seemed to limit the number of branches coming off of each flux arm. I am growing in a 10 quart pot (9.46 liters) that has a diameter of 11.5 inches at the top and 7 1/4 inch diameter at the bottom. I have short nodes on the flux arms and I have a total of about 25 branches total on each of 2 plants that I am growing. I am wondering if I need to take some of these branches off as it seems that if I keep them all it could get pretty crowded after I let all of them go vertical and into flower. If I take some of them out I could use them as clones to start some more plants. If you have any comments or advice I would be grateful for your input. Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to provide. Keep up the good work. I have learned more from your journals and help from Oz Brit. Thanks again. Keep it green.

[NorCalRider]

Amazing thread, how young are you starting the training and how late is to late?

 

[Light Addict]

Hey NorCalRider, I start at the topping at third node and train straight away once the new growth is substantial enough!

LA, my guru friend. I have finally unlocked the secret to uploading pics for my messages. When you get a chance take a look see. These are alll FLUX style but a little disorganized. I will be thankful for any comments or suggestions.
