- Removed LOWER growth tips from last topping. Should have done when topped because the plant spent a week developing stems I was going to remove anyway. ;-}
- Raised Fertigation volume to
- #1: 240/fertigation, 960 ml/day
- #10: 260
- Light Intensity: [ 677, µmol/s2/m2]
- Refilled Reservoir, 3 Gal Hydro Chart @ EC: 2.0
I’m NOT using the runoff scales for my GrowTek - I increase Fertigation AMOUNT by ~10% when there is NO runoff. I’m not going for 5, 10, or 20% runoff - just enough to know it’s effectively moving down the pot. So far - this has been a stress reducing technique! After Flip - I’ll try increasing from 4 fertigations/day to 6. When increasing frequency, I KEEP THE TOTAL PER DAY the equivalent, meaning each fertigation event is reduced to achieve the same daily target. The objective is to reduce swings in EC as the pot dries down. Because increasing frequency of fertigation generally increases moisture at the TOP of the pot - need to assure we’re not creating a Fungus Gnat resort on the soil (coco) surface. I maintain a layer of plays and, ~1/4” deep or so, to reduce the opportunity for Fungus Gnat explosion. Fortunately this grow - have seen NO fungus gnats, other than a single flyer at the beginning. I’ve applied Dr. Zymes twice, early - haven’t seem a fungus gnat since.
