BBK // NLS

I’m late making my entry. Thanksgiving? Coming along nicely. I will probably give them another week before I increase their container size. Fighting through temp and humidity issues that I didn’t have on my first grow. The temp is at 80-82 when the light is on. Not too bad. I made a fan box with ducting to circulate cooler air. No light leaks with how I set it up. The next bigger concern is my humidity. Indoor is at 30%. I set up a humidifier with an inkbird. Got the tent up to above 50%. Best I can get it. I’ll just have to watch for any issues. Any advise?

The BlackBerry is really taking off in size. The Northern lights is lagging a bit but is showing signs of being happier now that it is in a 5 gallon container. Air is still dryer than I’d like.

Been a good week. My Norther Lights is finally picking up the pace and really catching up with the Black Berry Kush. All the leaves are looking a good bit better. Happy happy. The overall humidity has come up due to a wetter weather pattern over the west coast. It’s been staying between 59-62 consistently. I just did my fist topping as they are past the 5th node now. Made sure to give it a light feeding of FloraGrow to kick up the nitrogen to help it recover. I’ll wait for them to grow a bit more before I increase the nutrients any more. I can’t think of a much better way to stay busy during the “winter months” in California.

Bad news. I’m a dumbass and tried the training clips off of Amazon to flatten out the branches. They worked until I tried to take them off. The branches were tight around the clips and I broke two off of each plant. Now they look bare. Lesson learned there. I have trellis net to use once the plants are ready. Good news. I upgraded my tent from a 2x4x5 to a 4x4x7 AC Infinity. I’m able to lower my light a little closer because the heat is less do to a better fan and more room for the heat to rise. Sitting at 77 instead of 83+. I have an inkbird controlling my humidifier. Humidity is still a little low but more stable. Started using a lite dose of armor si with my watering. Plants seem happy even though I fucked up. Live and learn. Knowing all this, how do they look? Looking for some insight on what could be better.

Another late post due to the holidays. Got the trellis up and started feeding branches thru and spreading them out. I kicked up the nutrients a little bit. The plants are really filling out. Think I will flip to 12/12 in about another week. The smell has really grown over the last four days Happy so far, but could be better. Learning as I go.

Smell is getting stronger. Most of the branches have grown into the trellis. Getting excited. The NLS started flowering a week early. What caused that? I hadn’t changed the schedule.

Trucking along nicely. Smell is getting pretty strong.

Plants are healthy. The NLS is getting some decent bud growth. Maybe three more weeks before I harvest. These are quick flower variety. I’ll keep an eye on the tric color. The BBK is starting to flower. About another 6-7 weeks and I’ll search where they are at. I have a new light coming. It is an LEd with about twice the light power. I’m running a 315w cmh currently. I hope this will help the buds develop better.
