Good to be back.
Using 2 bars @ 50% which is 109w, hanging ~50 cm above the plants
Going to use 30l fabric pots, the reasoning being i do not want to feed at all and see how it goes. I have treated the soil with 1kg dolomite for 150l all-mix and added some vermiculite as well.
tomorrow will be day 1 of veg
Glass of water for 24h
Paper towel for 24h
Planted on the third day with light-mix
day 8: watered a bit, 30l pots holding alot of water. going to switch light schedule to 16/8 soon
day 9: watered with ph adjusted water to 6.0ph to lower soil ph (7.8 ph), all lamps are on the lumatek and its @ 50% pulling 300watts
day 14:watered
day 20: watered
so far this has been maintenance free, been watering once a week ph adjusted water to 6,2 with fresh squeezed lemon juice. led @ 75% approx 500 ppfd with the photone app, dli @ 30 mol/m2/d
moved the plants around for better airflow
day 23: removed some of the largest fan leaves , getting ready for heavy defoliation next week, also starting feed at next watering with 30-10-10 fert @ 1.3 mS/cm , 6.3 ph
day 25: some "light" defoliation and watering
day 29: almost all leaf tips of all plants showed some kind of nute burn. re measured eC and was 1.6 for some reason, way above optimal, diluted with plain water down to 1.15, no watering yet. ph has drifted to 6.8
>>>>>>>NOTE TO SELF: ALWAYS SHCWAZZ AUTOS WHEN FLOWER ACTUALLY BEGINS<<<<<<<
day 33: watered plain water ~ 12l per plant
day 36: nute toxicity clearing up, 30-10-10 @ 1.6ms/cm was too much,lights @ 100% at this point
on the left Red Gorilla Girl XL auto, on the right Red Strawberry Banana auto
day 37: watered plain water, measured runoff eC RRG @2.8 and 4-5 RSB @ 2.6 and 2.0
day 38: defoliated a little bit
day 40: watered ~12l per plant water. ec readings still coming down.
day 43: watered plain water ~10l per pot. still have not fed the plants. Runoff EC seems to be stabilizing @ 3.0 mS/cm for all pots +/- 10%
day 45: added some gypsum(CaSO4) to the soil. 1 tablespoon per pot, will water when pots dry
day 46: watered to saturation and some runoff, next watering i will feed 20-20-20
day 49: watered and fed (20-20-20 + epsom salts )
day 52: used bamboo sticks and tie wrap to help stems
day 53: sprayed 1% H2O2 on the top soil, also applied diatomaceous earth for gnat control, will leave the plants to dry up completely before re-watering.
day 54: seems like gnats are going away, way less flying and walking around the top soil when it's disturbed
day 55: watered plain water
