Critical RQS+ Noob Diary

Lion_Loft The quantity of nutrients is calculated based on the size of the tank ( 20L ). I used a lower nutrient concentration due to the too high night temperature range, I didn't want to stress the plants. I found some insects on the plant and tried using water with lemon juice. it worked for a few days, but they reappeared. I'll buy neem oil.

Lion_Loft I used 2 ml of concentrated neem oil diluted in 1 liter of water. I applied the mixture once a day for three days above and below the leaves to fight and prevent insect attacks. worked well against aphids.

Lion_Loft This is the first time I have grown and used topping. Any advice is welcome, please😭. I will update my diary day by day with photos and informations.

Lion_Loft I increased the concentration of nutrients per liter. I have a 20 liter container but I only use 5 liters per week which I replace with distilled water every time I need to increase the concentration of nutrients. LST method started.

Lion_Loft I accidentally broke off some important branches 😩. I transplanted the smaller plant to a suitable pot.

Lion_Loft This week starts with forecasts indicating a rise in temperature (between 30 and 37 for the whole week). I will need to water 3 times a week instead of 2 and create more airflow with another fan. In the photos they look a little down but they recovered in a few hours after my operation.

Lion_Loft On 21 June I performed the defoliation without any mistake. But this week my nightmare came true, the temperature inside the Growbox rise to 34 ° and 80% humidity (the water in the pot has evaporated), bringing the plant to a state of crisis. Now I keep the Growbox open, hoping it will resolve and the plant will be healthy again.

Lion_Loft Also this week the temperature is high and sometimes I keep open the growbox and use another fan at the right distance. It's going well but I'm worried about the high temperatures as I will start the flowering phase in week 10, I always need some advice. See you soon 👊

Lion_Loft I cannot continue with the vegetative phase because there is not enough space. I set the lights for 12 hours of light and 12 hours of dark. next week I plan to use the right nutrients for this phase. Should I start using the nutrients for the Bloom phase next week? Advice is welcome 👍 Did I overdo it with the defoliation? let me know 🙌

Lion_Loft I started using nutrients for the flowering phase, added a dehumidifier to keep the humidity low, and did some defoliation.

Lion_Loft I added the nutrients for the 3rd week. the temperature is high so I give them more water. I removed some leaves and a few branches below that had started to dry out.

Lion_Loft The temperature continues to be very high. I watered too often and burned some leaves. Now I have to wait for the soil to dry well before watering. The cheap humidifier i bought works well.

Lion_Loft The temperature continues to rise. Some leaves have started to dry out, I think this is normal. I need some advice for the smaller plant. thank you 🙌

Lion_Loft I started the 2 weeks of Flushing. The smaller plant is gone. What should I do with the left plant (J.)? Thanks for your suggestions👋

Lion_Loft I finally decided to cut the left plant (J.). the right plant (W.) will be cut on Sunday 🙌
