I'm changing out the rez one day early this week. The plants have just been eating so much that the PPMs were down below 200 even after topping up a couple of days ago. This week should be the transition week where they really start to stretch, I am seeing preflowers on all of the plants and the growth seems to have picked up across the board. After scaling back the nitrogen last week the Jammy Dodgers are doing great. The mango smiles seem a bit beat up but are still growing, I'm hoping they will stabilize a bit this week as the N ratio is even lower.
In the top-down shots you should be able to see 4 main nodes on 3 of the plants, they seem to all be matching pace for growth rates. Hoping for some nice bushes. I decided not to top one of the mangos as it was the youngest and smallest when I went to do the topping. She seems a bit stunted anyway so I think I made the right call there.
I also decided to take some root pictures, they're all looking really nice. Seems like hydroguard works well at preventing root issues and encouraging growth.
All the best to your girls on their journey to frostines 🌱💚 looks great growmie, great start...from what you write my plants have something like a 10 days head start, but your girls already are bigger 😲💪
Non male ! Aggiungi ossigeno però, le piante stanno soffrendo un insufficienza di ossigenazione nelle radici . Buono con i fertilizzanti, non male tutto sommato💪buona fortuna amico!
@Yuriboyka99, ah yeah, I am definitely trying to resolve that. I've lowered N ratios considerably over the last couple of weeks but it just doesn't want to come out of it. That's what I get for running two strains in RDWC, Mango Smile is known to be a pretty touchy plant so I think it's just those genetics coming through.
@jamaljackson,la pianta che nella foto dove ci sono tutte sta in basso a destra ha le foglie ad artiglio , quello di solito è causato da due cose principalmente, overwatering oppure over di azoto . Se come dici la soluzione è ben ossigenata allora darei un occhio all'azoto, che inoltre potrebbe anche essere la causa dello sbagliato assorbimento d nutrienti e della conseguente colorazione gialla a macchie su alcune foglie . In effetti solo una risulta stressata quindi il mio consiglio finale è ridurre l'apporto di azoto
@Yuriboyka99, What makes you say that? I have air stones in each bucket, and 3 airstones in my main rez, the recycling of the water also adds a ton of surface agitation to the main rez. Aside from buying a chiller to allow for more dissolved oxygen in the water I'm not sure there is much else I can do.
interesting article! Thanks for sharing
I think this DLI knowledge is needed when growing indoor! I have witnessed the damage intense light for too long does....Thanks again!
Very interesting link you throwed in...it was a good read. Now i wonder if i truly could go below 40 DLI with my photoperiods, according to the page i could go with 30 DLI right now 😏
Your garden looks great by the way 😎💪 I should arrive at that stage in about two weeks time, keep up the good work 😍
