Light upgrade to a Mars Hydro TWS 2000 is a huge improvement! Goodbye to my blurple, eyes don't hurt any more 👍
All 3 Durban Poisons were duds (old seeds) plus one Borealis. Down to 8 seedlings.
Cold temps may have stunted some growth (couple nights of -40°C weather got it down to 14°C in the tent). Overall healthy and putting on growth, adapting to new light still (set at 50-60% for now, ~320ppfd)
Cold overnight temps (16-17°C) are definitely slowing things down, might look at a heater this week. Some early signs of chlorosis in a couple that could be from pH as the tap water was harder than I thought. Light set at 50%, 330-400ppfd
Gave a good feeding of 5.1.1 fish juice that had a low pH and they seemed to like it so we'll see the effects this week. Stems are sturdy and will respond well to LST. Planning to top a couple (if they ever get big enough) and keep one of the runts in the tiny pots for funsies.
8 Jan: Struggling with low temperatures overnight and keeping humidity in check (one night down to 9°C 😬). Finding the right settings this week.
11 Jan: Got temp and hum under control by the looks of it, new humidistat and heater working well. All 4 main pots have a plant in them, earlier transplants have taken well. Two plants will get LST and two will get topped, for science!
Big shoutout to chopsticks! Best tool in the grow room and always free 🙌.
First topping, LST is working well.
First signs of pre-flowers forming, one probable male so far but its in a small pot still.
Chopped first confirmed male, one more possible male and 2 possible female.
Main growth tips are established, at least 2 females confirmed with one possible. Continuing with LST, might top one more.
One or two more weeks of veg and lots of water then I'll think about 12/12.
Had a couple casualties this week, one herm and one male snipped. Down to 3 plants but I'm not all that sad about it! Going to have some nice little shrubs.
Battling fungus gnats that came in from a plant I got from a friend 😠
Thinking of flipping lights in the next 5 days. Signs of a P and/or K excess so flushing for a couple days before flower nutes.
