Week 3 of vegetation has arrived for my Black Dog strain, and I couldn't be more pleased with their development.
These plants have grown significantly and now stand at around 20 cm in height.
It's truly remarkable to witness their progress and anticipate what's to come.
The temperature in the grow space remains stable, with daytime temperatures around 28°C.
This consistent warmth provides an optimal environment for the plants' growth and metabolic processes.
During the night, temperatures continue to drop slightly to around 25°C, ensuring a favorable climate for healthy plant development.
While the temperature remains consistent, the humidity levels have started to decrease gradually.
Currently, the humidity stands at around 70-75%.
This gradual reduction is implemented to acclimate the plants to lower humidity levels as they approach the flowering stage.
Maintaining an appropriate humidity range will help prevent issues such as excessive moisture and potential mold or mildew development.
At this stage, I have not performed any defoliation on the Black Dog plants.
Their foliage is still crucial for photosynthesis and nutrient absorption during this early growth phase.
I will closely monitor the plant's canopy and make decisions regarding defoliation as the weeks progress to ensure optimal light penetration and airflow throughout the plant.
As the Black Dog plants continue to thrive, I'm filled with anticipation for their future.
I will continue to provide attentive care, making necessary adjustments to environmental conditions, and closely monitoring their growth progress.
The journey toward a successful harvest is well underway, and I'm excited to see what lies ahead.
