Plants just overcame the stress of defoliation+ the stress caused by too high humidity >85% because I had the grow room totally sealed for the most part of lights on period ,for Co2 to work but the humidity was too high for this so for now on I will run (only) the exhaust fan to keep temp and %RH in ideal levels, and let the bottles with sugar yeast at the bottom for extra Co2 build up.
Many of the top buds' pistils turned brown in the previous week because (maybe) of the humidity that was over 90% sometimes and the fan pointing straight at the canopy of the plants.
I also lower the lights closer to the plants the last 2 days and so far wedding gelato responds really well but black bomb's leaves seems to have some light bleaching(I elevated the Black Bomb with a small ,5 cm height, box to fit the height of Wedding Gelato's canopy ) maybe I will lower the plant if I see its leaves get worse than that.
***Midweeκ edit day 25 flowering : I decide to take away the box that elevated Black bomb to fit WG because of serious light bleaching at 33 cm distance from my Led light, while plant still needs its fan leaves, now at almost 40cm from the light i hope it will be fine.
(I don't know why but WG seems to do a lot better from BB at 30 cm lights distance from canopy, maybe it is that BB is almost pure Indica and in a smaller pot and generally smaller plant...)
I think this grow surpass my goals on quality and yield .. ! Best buds I had grown till now...gorilla will be hardly better if comes out any better at all than wedding gelato.. 😎
Knocked it out of the park bro great job!!!
How you liking the HLG? I just got 2 yesterday and the plants looked like they were lovin' em...I was lights on 20 mins ago I'm about to go check on em again
