Medellin by Lemonnade (sativa) DWC

Stoked on the week's progress! Approximately day 10 from transplant. Roots coming in well. Looking like great growth after the top, too. Humidity is low, and making the VPD really high. I have a number of upgrades coming in, including a AC Infinity cloudforge humidifier. I also sprung for the "UIS controller" for AC Infinity, then I can have remote control of humidity and fan speed, and also program fan speed. So I can start really nailing my VPD numbers, which right now are "ok at best" -- plant is still overall find, but, loving the automation and nailing the environmental specs. My EC meter broke -- again. It's reading randomish numbers in a range, so maybe I'm getting an idea. So, I'm onto my third. Decided to not cheap out, getting an Apera one. That being said, I'm holding off on a res change until it comes in (hopefully tomorrow, 11/2). I also have an aquarium "ATO" -- automatic top off coming in. So I can upgrade from my jury rigged version, which is just a smart plug and an internet connected camera, which worked but was work for me and sometimes you overfill it etc. This I can probably use throughout the grow (especially once I switch to the control tank setup when the plant is more established), too. Especially with the pH controller, hotness. Update 11/2: first res change. Same week 2 gh trio formula at 50%. New EC meter has me questioning everything in life. It's reading 1200, when the old meter was reading 600. Even diluted from last res. Yikes. I guess I should trust the new meter, it's calibrated and everything. 1200 seems high. But with the old meter readings.... Maybe this is where I want to be. Ugh. So. Yeah, super unsure. 1200 it is. I pH'd it with the controller manually down to 6.2 and set at 5.8 and I'll let it correct, cool, less work! Update 11/3: Started LST on 'er. Update 11/4: Starting build for auto-top-off (ATO). Little concerned that my ATO has an LED status indicator. Ugh. But, after some thinking, I'm not terribly concerned about the leak. I'll try a test as soon as it makes sense. I might have to make a light baffle for the holes in the tank for running cables.
