Notes : badly need a dehumidifier RH peaking at 80. 1. Sprayed folio and soil with h2o2, paranoid about pests. Dunked mimosa and cookies with same feed amounts as before. For dunking used 4 gals of water in a 20 gal bucket. Was enough for 2 plants but gonna use 5 gals when feeding 3 otherwise, I think, water won’t reach higher root mass. Fed critical 2 ml micro 1 ml bloom 1 tbs Epsom salt and 6 ml photo plus. I guess what I thought was a N deficiency turned out to be mag? Still lowering N a bit. Adjusted lights to 500 ppfd, critical is getting around 350. Was thinking of switching to flowering this week but ima let critical catch up just a bit. 2. Sprayed folio, defolio and removed small grow sites. Lst 3. So my plan is to stretch out mimosa horizontally as much as I can to let critical grow out some more. I’m literally crushing stems to keep mimosa down but she recovers too quickly. So I just tied down all main stems to the pots for both mimosa and cookies. I’m not trying to mess with them much anymore in terms of stress. 4. Fed critical 1/4 gallon, critical seems dry every other day, giving her small amounts but often. Folio sprayed and turned fan speed up to 75% 5. Feeding day. Started with critical ph input was 6.4 the output tho was 4.8 with like 4k ppm wtf is going on ? Must be that miracle gro bs soil, it says it’s moisture control whatever the fuck that means. Flushed with 9.3 ph 1 gallon 1 tbs epsom, runoff was 6.4 ph 2k ppm. Flushed again with 6.4 ph and 1 tbs epsom and runoff went back to 4.8 wtf? Then did a 1/2 gallon flush with 9.3 ph to see if it will go back up to 6.4 runoff but it didn’t runoff stayed at 4.8… I’ll wait and see how the plant reacts. Mimosa got 1 gallon 6 ml micro 3 ml bloom 2 ml silica 1 tbs epsom. Cookies got nothing it’s looking good as it is. 6. Let the plants rest cookies still looks good so won’t feed. 7. Fed critical and cookies. Cookies runoff 6.2 and 3k ppm. Cleaned tent out and set timer for flowering. End of week : Not much to say going into flowering, need a dehumidifier. Realized organic might be the way to go as much fun as it is to play “scientist” with chems it’s really unnecessary and just creates extra work and risk. I feel like unless you have to use synthetic nutes like in a hydro then go for it, otherwise just use organic stuff like living soil and just amend with dry organic nutes.

Been noticing wet spots on my leaves almost like a slug went thru but it’s not slimy, didn’t leave residue and dissipated fast. My Rh was relatively high that day and right after a feeding in the morning, is this the result of plant “perspiring” or something else? Thanks

leaves overlapping will do that. if you have a breeze, no problem as it dries fast. otherwise, de-congest so you don't have standing water lingering. bend or remove. always prefer to keep them.

@GeneT,het is helemaal goed, helm valt er vanzelf af of je pulkt het eraf met een druppeltje water wanneer het vastgeplakt blijft

@Mosquito_Haarlem_Holland, Thanks bro, any advice on leaning seedlings? I’ve forgot my myco when I planted the seeds so I carefully excavated them and replanted. I guess I replanted them too shallow they all popped out with helmet head and because of it really stretchy. Now cookies gelato doing a “lean back”

Hey brother I struggle with same rh issue in flower on the east coast. I learned to time it so my plants are never in flower in July or August. I try to start a run in March and harvest in late may to early June and then start another run in mid August and harvest in Nov or December if I'm running photos. Heat and high rh suck in flower especially if your running more powerful lights that put out additional heat. A 200w light is also not enough for a 3x3 tent in flower imo. I run an 880 watt in a 5x5 and its perfect. Good luck!

@Tweezer, great info thx man, yeah ima try not to be in flower during July and august. Sucks to hear about my light thought it’d be enough since that’s how they commercialized them. I’ve panicked prematurely lol gotta stop drinking and posting xD. Im thinking of bringing the tent inside the house from my garage for the last few weeks of flower.

Rh can be lowered by introducing an intake as well as leaving ur exhaust high. If u dont have an intake try leaving a flap open with a fan pointed at it. No smell early, moist is manageable with good airflow. Am new to this but had similar issues. Good luck!

@Monketh, First of all thanks for your sound advice brutha your right and I think I figured out my problem. I do leave my flaps open every morning after lights on but my fan isn’t near the flaps. Also I’m growing in my garage so I don’t get the benefit of my house hvac unit. It worked awesome during the colder periods cause all I needed was a heater but now with the change in temps and humidity it’s almost like it’s getting a greenhouse effect with the tent producing most of it. Basically my intake takes from the garage and my exhaust gives back to the garage and I’ve got a green house effect going on. I’ll try exhausting into the framework of the house.
