Hi so Iām a brand new rookie grower and Iām doin a stardawg cycle with 10 plants . A big undertaking I know so please any help would be greatly appreciated. Iām growing in coco using high frequency fertigation technique, not allowing the medium to dry out and gauging health by ec, keeping runoff ec within 300 of my input ec. Due to this as these babies are only on the start of week 3 (clones so not normal wk 3) Iām feeding twice a day with runoff. They are all doin really well now and Iām happy with ec range.
Had a really rough start and the girls were in a real bad shape. Should have repotted a lot sooner but was not sure what to do when cuttings are in soil but you are growing in coco. Due to this there was a fair bit of cal deficiency. Son as I repotted and started feeding them nutes theyāve looked better and better and are really coming along now. Applied some LST when repotted last week and they have really responded well. Just added some tnc bactorrs13 bacteria tonight in the 2nd top up feed. Will see how they respond to that as Iāve heard good things. Not sure how regularly I should add this but just gonna go with once a week for now and see how they do. Was struggling with humidity but have managed to keep it to round about 65-70. Flushing solution with cal/mag water to bring down to acceptable ec range.
Let me know how you think Iām doing and any tips would love to hear them. See you next week and happy budding stoners
You flip that crop to flower with 75% humidity you are going to cause some very unwanted problems. In fact you wouldn't even be able to see this through to the end in those conditions. Is there a window or exhaust of some type you could set up in your room there?
@Saintgrower, well if you have access or the means to buy yourself a small dehumidifier that would be ideal to get it down to around at least 55. If you can get lower then that then even better. I have 2 small ones from Amazon that do work great and keep my 5x5 down to about 47-52 depending on the day outside and if I watered or not. Doesn't have to be an expensive unit. If there is a window you could open or a dial on your exhaust fan to turn up the speed of the fan that would definitely help to. If you continue with such high RH you will run into rot and mold problems. Nobody wants that. Also maybe look into grabbing a second hygrometer just to be sure your readings are correct or within range of one another.
@@Billyandbarb, Iāve lowered rh to 65% and will be lowering by 5% every week. What conditions would you suggest at this stage? Theyāve only just been flipped a day ago I didnāt want to cause extreme change in environment but what is ur thoughts?
