This episode tackles two major \"mysteries\" currently buzzing in the community: why electrical conductivity (EC) sometimes drops during a dryback—challenging long-held grower assumptions—and the complex biology behind stress-induced hermaphroditism. The duo explores the transition from the legacy Teros-12 sensors to the more accurate Teros-1, explaining how improved data sensitivity reveals the true relationship between plant feeding and substrate concentration. They also answer live listener questions regarding PPFD levels for ripening and how to manage environmental \"swings\" to prevent crop failure.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/3zkYl9J7uGmkCJodQLZ2gtb1p7G5YMSafmRWy0IzUuk/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9iMGIx/MTA5NmYyZjY4ZjA1/YTZmZjEzZDkxYmU1/MDQ5ZS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
