Humidity says 90% but that was a delayed reading; actually more like 70-80% consistently but I just watered before the pictures were taken. 6 week update! These babies might get topped one more time (topped twice so far I believe?) and then just chill for the rest of the veg cycle. Performed LST on them this week as well, maybe a little overdue. Going to maintain the LST every 3 days or do to keep the plants tight and stretched, they seem to be handling the LST and topping very well! May potentially do a 9 week veg, but I see no deficiencies, burns, or any other issues so far. Going to need to decide if I'm going to amend the soil or use bottled nutrients to provide more P-K during flowering, updates to come. I haven't fed them any of the GH Trio this entire grow. Entire feed as follows: Weeks 1-4: Happy Frog + Perilite in solo for 4 weeks, pH water with Floralicious+ on week 3 and every water after. Used "Recharge" as well to help feed the soil, I'm using about 1tbsp once a week mixed right into my normal unbrewed tap water. Weeks 5-8: FFOF + Perilite + Lime for last 4 weeks. Still pH water with Floralicious+ every feed. Recharge once a week. Been so nice not having feeding bottles for the most part. As I mentioned in the last update, I'll most likely be switching to either a hydroponic or living soil setup because they just overall seem to benefit growth/yield, level of maintenance effort, and long-term cost efficiency. I also included some quick pics of the main tools I use for anyone interested! Using a PPFD meter to calculate lux for light efficiency at my ideal height (Urceri $30; amazon), a Dr. Meter pH pen (Dr. Meter $35, amazon), and a soil moisture meter (Sonkir $10, amazon). Those in addition to my humidifiers/heaters/fans and my supplements (Mykos for transplants, Recharge for a bunch of other stuff, Floralicious+ for taste/smell (personal experience 10/10 definitely increases terpene quality, and pH up/down but almost always just pH down)) are the only things I've added besides my water and soil. Been finding a love for spending time in the garden. Learning about these plants has allowed me to learn about myself too! Will definitely keep sharing the trades I've learned!
