Maintaining the correct humidity level is crucial for healthy cannabis growth, especially during the different stages of its life cycle. For 2-week-old plants, which are in the vegetative stage, a 70% humidity level is generally on the higher end but can be appropriate, especially for young seedlings. Here's a guideline for humidity levels throughout the growth stages: ### Cannabis Humidity Guide 1. **Seedling Stage (0-2 weeks):** - **Ideal Humidity:** 65-70% - **Note:** High humidity helps seedlings take in water through leaves since their root system is underdeveloped. 2. **Vegetative Stage (2-8 weeks):** - **Ideal Humidity:** 40-70% - **Adjustment:** Gradually decrease the humidity from 70% as they get older. By the end of the vegetative stage, aim for around 40-50%. - **Why Lower Humidity?** Lower humidity levels encourage stronger root growth and reduce the risk of mold and pests. 3. **Flowering Stage:** - **Ideal Humidity:** 40-50% at the beginning, decreasing to 30-40% towards the end. - **Important:** Lower humidity is crucial in the flowering stage to prevent mold and bud rot, especially as the buds become denser. 4. **Late Flowering/Pre-Harvest (last 1-2 weeks):** - **Ideal Humidity:** 30-40% - **Purpose:** Helps in trichome development and reduces mold risk. ### Managing Humidity - **Dehumidifiers:** Useful for lowering humidity, especially in the flowering stage. - **Humidifiers:** If the air is too dry, especially in the seedling and early vegetative stages. - **Air Circulation:** Use fans to improve air circulation, which helps maintain even humidity and temperature. - **Ventilation:** Ensure good ventilation in your growing area. An exhaust system helps to remove humid air. - **Monitor Regularly:** Use a hygrometer to keep a constant eye on humidity levels. ### Additional Tips - **Watch Your Plants:** Look for signs of distress. If your plants are thriving at a certain humidity level, it might be okay even if it's slightly outside the recommended range. - **Gradual Changes:** When changing humidity levels, do it gradually. Sudden changes can stress plants. - **Environmental Control:** Remember that room temperature can also affect humidity, so keep an eye on both. Adjusting the humidity as your plants grow is important for their health and yield. Always consider the specific needs of your strain, as some may prefer slightly different conditions :-)

No, they will not "catch up", they will always be 4 weeks behind.

There is nothing stopping you from running them at 24/0 I'm not a fan of it and think along the same lines as others saying plants need rest, 18/6 is my ideal. plants do things in that down time, its not like they shutdown and power back up in the light. Also waste less hydro, 24/0 is a long time and will lower yours lights life before it starts to fade.

Your plants will stretch when in flower, they could stretch to double or more in height when flowering. So that should dictate when you need to induce flowering. If your veg plants are 40cm tall when you switch to flower they could grow to 80cm plus when flowering, make sure you flip to flower when your plant hits a height you can cope with after the stretch. To get them into flower is easy, change light schedule to 12/12, and leave it like that for remainder of the grow.

ppm or ec goes up or down according to the nutrient strength within your medium to raise it you have to increase the nutrient content HOWEVER looking at your plants they seem to be a nice even green in colour so increasing the strength could actually inhibit growth Now they are flowering you should stick to those bloom products you are using but also consider getting a cal/mag and iron supplement to add weekly . kelp products increase root volume which inturn will increase yield so it may also benefit your grow

There is nothing you can do that will magically change anything in the last few hours of a plants life that will turn it from ordinary bud into super bud. Ice water, extended darkness etc etc...it's all BS. The best thing you can do is to keep everything normal and do everything possible to avoid stressing your plant in any way, right before harvest and after weeks/months of careful cultivation. In 40 years of growing, I have tried just about every urban myth out there and they are all "ghetto science" that do nothing. Keep them healthy and stress free is the only way imo.
