9/21:
I'm such a dumbass...I should have kept a little more distance between the canopy and the lights for a day or two, til they got used to the higher intensity and increased wattage. Singed the tips on all my new growth and kinda faded a few fan leaves...whoops...
Raised lights and fed plants today....before feeding, I added a tablespoon of Fox Farm Cavern Culture to the pots. It should become available as the plants start craving the extra P and K.
9/22:
They are much happier being a few more inches from the "sun"....very perky.
Even the BlueAF's seem to be improving. The late-arriving stunted runt has already surpassed her older sister in size. She's much brighter shade of green than the older/slower weird one...that one has much darker foliage...kinda blue tinted.
I'll spray them all with BoomBoom Spray and more harpin proteins tomorrow morning and see if I can't turbocharge this grow a little more...
9/23:
Fed them a little bit, but didn't have time for spraying them.
9/25:
Fed them very well today..saturated all pots, and foliar fed with boomboom spray and axiom harpin proteins again.
The random missing leaf tips are due to severe feline predation...
@Ezzjaybruh, Unless they banned me for something I said the day before about the sabotaged Nordstream2 pipeline, I can't imagine why...
I asked GD to fix it, but haven't heard back from them yet...and that 7-hour text ban has been in effect for over 100 hours at this point...
@Ezzjaybruh, Ya, subtle differences in CCT usually occur over several months in nature, but in my "pseudo-nature", I go from late Spring to early Fall with the flip of a switch....
@Ezzjaybruh, I may not actually be able to achieve 2100k with LED, but I'll keep trying...I haven't even turned on my flowering boosters yet!
My current 3000k seems very yellow only because I vegged them under closer to 6000k. In my experience, besides the actual photoperiod, it's not so much the absolute warmth of the CCT by itself that sends the flowering signal to plants, but moreso the contrast between the CCT exposure they had in veg versus what you give them in flower...along with reduced "nighttime" temperatures.
