Weekly Summary:
Lots of progress this week! Noticeable growth each and every day. Pushing a 2ftx2ft canopy.
Full-on stretch mode is in play and she is sucking down nutrients. Swapped the SF1000 out for the CMH 315. Installed the scrog net and been training branches daily. Prelim install top-off bucket, but have to make a couple of mods for it to work with two RDWC systems.

- More leaf tucking to give new growth 100% light with no shade.
- Adjusted the tie-downs on branches.
- Removed SF1000 light and replaced with CMH 315 light.
- Added 2L RO water to bring water level back up.

Temp: 71F
PH: 5.6/5.7
- Adjusted the tie-downs on branches.
- Added the 4x4 scrog net into place.
- Adjusted intake/exhaust fan speeds now that CMH is in place (over Marathon OG in single-site system) and creating a bit more heat.
- Some light defoliation where shading lower growth/shoots - only where leaves can’t be tucked.
- Gave 5ml AN Coco Grow A+B, added to 1L RO water, shook, and dumped into reservoir.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Air:
Temp: 78F
Humidity: 63%
Water:
PPM: 58
Temp: 72F
PH: 5.7
- Lots of growth overnight. Lots of branching!
- Weaved a few tall shoots and tucked some leaves. Defoliated a couple of leaves that were not tuckable.
- Dialed in the lights-out environment. Looks like a 70f is where it will average during lights out (heater set to 74f).
- Adjusted settings on Inkbird for better VPD. Boosted humidity to 67% because the temp in the tent is a bit higher now (78f-80f) and going for 70f and 58% RH for lights out.
- Tent is riding at 60% without any humidifiers just based on transpiration.
- Heater is still in place for lights out, but I’ll be swapping with a dehumidifier soon.

- Spent time training through the net, but not much defoliation was needed.
- She is spread out pretty good and looks like she’s going to hit a 3x3 footprint soon. She's a Monster!
- Gave 7ml of AN Coco Grow early in day.
Before Dosage:
PPM: 550

Day 47 (Apr 20, 2022)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Humidity: 67% (Day) / 57% (Night)
Water:
PPM: 590
Temp: 70F
PH: 5.5
- More training through the net.
- Prelim setup of the top-off bucket with a tee fitting to go to both RDWC systems (two-site and single site). I will test tomorrow but I think I’m going to need two drains in the top-off bucket - because the ability to level a tee is going to be cumbersome.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Day 48 (Apr 21, 2022)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Air:
Temp: 77F (Day) / 68F (Night)
Humidity: 67% (Day) / 57% (Night)
Water:
PPM: 550/650
Temp: 68F
PH: 5.5/5.4
- Spent some time training bud sites through the net. Not much defoliation - she’s spread out pretty well.
- Super-cropped a few of the tall branches and directed them toward their final resting places.
- Continued top-off setup. The tee is not going to work as it favors one side or the other, no matter how I level it. I’m definitely going to need to add another drain to the top-off bucket and have each drain go to each reservoir. Adjusted the float valves in each reservoir to maintain the water level - will need some more testing once the top-off system is in place.
- Added 10ml of AN Coco Grow A+B with 2L RO water in a water bottle, shook, and poured into the reservoir.
Before Dosage:
PPM: 550
PH: 5.5
After Dosage:
PPM: 650

- Still clearly in veg mode, but the pre-flowers are noticeably starting today
- Tucked some leaves, but didn’t find the need to train much today.
- All bud sites seem pretty well-positioned for the moment.
- I will be installing the dehumidifier and carbon filter this weekend.
