I was thinking of my game plan during 2019 how I would grow differently in 2020, I'm not doing enough and that shows in my final weights at the scales, so I ran tests on c02 as a way reach the WR however it's not feasible to run c02 with my current set up so thats out of the question, the lights I ran in 2018 were limited by the amount of c02 in the greenhouse I believe so I wont be doing lights again, unless I build a greenhouse I'm able to run c02 in someday...

So I'm trying something to improve my weights that is so blatantly obvious the only reason I haven't done it is because my ocd likes everything perfect.

1- I'm not going to limit my plants to there individual sections in the greenhouse, if I have an aggressive plant I'm going to let it take over the none aggressives plants side.

2- I'm going to allow my plants to grow outside the greenhouse, normally I deadhead everything once the vines reach the side walls.

Doing these simple things will allow my plants to have more foliage, my plant are normally 600-700 square feet now they'll be 1000-1200 if not bigger. And I plan to have everything terminated as normal by day 20-25 of fruit set.
