(Day 43) - All plants are looking good. They are now drinking nearly 5 gallons of water from the reservoir per day. Temperatures inside the tent are higher than I would like but the dehumidifier is adding considerable amounts of heat to the lung room. I will take the higher temps if it means my humidity is fairly decent. Although, humidity is a touch higher than I would like as well. I am keeping very good air circulation going in the tent to prevent problems due to humidity levels. Should start seeing bud sites developing rapidly over the coming days. Added Advanced Nutrients "Overdrive" to the feeding schedule at 4ml/gallon. (Day 46) - Trichomes now appearing on all plants aside from CDLC 1 which is a few days behind the others. Lollipop maintenance and light defoliation continues. PPFD ranges from 650 at the lowest cola to 850 at the highest as read by an Innoquest SpotOn PAR meter. The benefits of upgrading to a bar style light with a little more wattage are even more apparent in the flowering stage. Light dispersion is much better on the bar style vs the quantum board. I did have to raise the light a few inches as the plants had grown into the light and were getting over 1000 PPFD at the very top. Plants are still drinking close to 5 gallons of water/nutrients from the reservoir daily. I need to order more Sensi-Bloom A&B.

Hey there. So, I tried answering this earlier but I was banned. So here's round 2. I've invested heavy into co2. And when delving into that. You really don't wanna go cheap pal. As I suspect. That you just don't wanna know your levels but are looking to enhance them. Well, say you get a meter and it reads 1500ppm and it's over 5000 cause your plants are locked out of photosynthesis (which if you don't have the right environment extra co2 beyond ambient level will just increase and increase and be deadly in the environment. Co2 stays low to the ground so, any pets small kids and so on, are the 1st to come into contact. So, I would highly suggest you spend more or close to 200e on a well known brand. So many reviews I seen on amazon with meters giving much lower reading that what was really there. My pro leaf. Its one of the best on the market that doesn't cost as much as the Eco / growtech but just as good. If not better you'll find they all use parts of the same reg vivoson. It'll set u back 290e can go up to 500$ on some sites. You'll get a fuzzy logic controller that reads co2 by the second. And is as safe as they come. If there's a fault. It turns off.

The only leaf in the entire tent looking a little mad. My instinct says leave it and see if any others pop up. Thoughts?

Looks like Septoria. Clip it and spray a copper foliar spray just in case. Dont want it spreading and you can avoid future issues at the cost of and one fan leaf...

Looking for experience with the Autopot system. This is the first time I have used it. 12gal reservoir. I change out the res weekly but by the end of the week it has a foul smell to it. Cleaned each time with half bottle of 3% Peroxide. Is this par for the course? Thanks!

depending on size and frequency this may or may not be an option for your context.. i find topping off at at half capacity or more in my rez allows me to delay cleaning a bit longer than letting it go down to 10 gallons or so and refilling (55 gal drum). I refill at 25gal. the rez is in a different room which is cooler than grow area. the heat from powerheads that stir the water have less impact on a larger volume and i add 30-35 gallons of winter tap water that is fairly cold every 3-4 days at peak use. the key is the temperature. if it's warmer you will have to clean more often. also, can adjust the volume you use and just refill more frequently with fresh water. have a volume that lasts 4-5 days instead of a week. if you can't avoid it, then work around it. adding h2o2 to the res will definitely help. not sure how much and how often, but it breaksdown fairly fast and faster in 'hard' water which is what fertilized water would be considered.

@Pablo42069, Thank you sir, and thanks for the comment. I am very interested in the CDLC as well. I love a good couch-lock.

I hate admitting this but the best grow I ever did was with Advanced Nutrients Grow Micro Bloom, 1 burple light and 2 Mars most inexpensive light. If there are any doubts look at my first diary and the week 11 or 10 video. 2 Fast BudsvGG at end of video they're tied down, RocBudInc Purple Roc V1 white label. Crystal meth x Purple Roc Berry and the very first plant Mephisto Hubbabubbasmellascope. 4 plants under those cheap lights and cheap Nutrients no supplements yielded a hair over 6 pounds cured bud. I haven't been able to repeat that since and get more confused after every grow. I get close but not like my 1st grow.

Nice looking grow! Does it feel better being legal? Glad to see some local gromie’s on here.
