16set Mainline - First Ever Grow & Daily Progressives c_0

All feeds with nutes use either a whole ratio or combination of "Veg Mix" and "Bloom Mix"concentrates DILUTED in water until a total ppm of add in is reached using a (Total Dissolved Solids)TDS Meter measured in PPM (parts per million). The "Veg Mix" concentrate will eventually be added in smaller ratios and "Bloom Mix" concentrate what will eventually replace the "Veg Mix" concentrate entirely with the ppm and ratios listed when I feed. Veg mix recipe is on week 3. Bloom Mix recipe is on week 5. Day 14 No bugs on the fly traps! So I took them out about mid day today and re-positioned my fans to mount just out side the edges of my lights angled down in a cross pattern over the soil in a vortex around the plant. This caused a few issues in getting the ventilation right as noticed in my temps and humidity having wild ranges. Finally got it balanced at 75F/68%RH with my in line vent at 50%. Will reduce heat and humidity overnight by about 5 each. Nice growth this week and now the lights are at 305 ppfd at center of plant. Soil is pretty dry on top and now also about 2" deep, so I will definitely have to water tomorrow. Day 15 will be a nute feeding. Day 15 Checked soil down 2" - nothing stuck to my finger so I weighed it - got 13lb 3oz (par weight is 15lb 4oz) so I made 2lb 1oz of nute water. (pictured the fans because they are drying the top pretty fast in this position.) measured my amounts by ppm - started with 32 ppm (purified water) added epsom salt, then nutes, and topped with H2O2 - then ph balanced it to par ph of 7.4 (temp of 69F) watering can around the plant and then sprayed some of the feed water along the top of the dirt to get everything evenly moist as well - then I just poured the remaining amount around in the circle again to make sure I used the whole amount of the feed water. let it go for the rest of the day and measured again this evening. temps 77F - 68%RH - 50% IL Vent - lights 340 ppdf at highest and 330 at center and 325 at weakest. Day 16 Exactly! On auto pilot now. Not much to do but watch it. temps in the tent are slightly cooler than before now that the fans are moving more air around. But the humidity seems to be in a tighter ranger now as well, so I'll take it. 74F/63% RH and IL vent at 50% - lights at 340 at highest and 315 at lowest (longer leaves are starting to reach outward now) and about 330 at center. Checked soil ph now that I have fed it again. Showed 3.94 (but have to add 1.25 from calibrated numbers; long story short, It runs all buffer calibrations/tests accurately, but lower by 1.25) so actually it's 5.19 which is still low... next feed will consider/calculate this data as well. Day 17 Still on cruise control. stats stable running about 73F/63 to 66% RH/50% IL Vent - and 350 highest ppfd and 315 at the lowest with 350 at center now - thinking I will reduce by another inch or so tomorrow, shooting for no higher than 350 by end of week. Day 18 Not much to worry about today. Normal stats 73F to 76F /63% to 66% RH/50% IL Vent - I moved the lights up a bit more today, now at 21" from soil and 15" from leaf tops - ppfd 335 at highest, 330 at center, and 320 at weakest. Soil was already dry again, so Im going to give more nutes tomorrow on day 19 (4 days after last feed) Day 19 Watering day - checked soil again last night and determined it was dry 2 inches down, so I planned to feed this morning. Checked the weight (par is still 15 lb and 4 oz) had 13lbs and 7oz- prepared 1lb and 13oz of nute water. Started with 7ppm added small pinch of epsom salt and veg feed, total 150 ppm since Im still in week 3, and gave it a shot of H2O2 and ph balanced it to 6.9 (will check the soil ph tomorrow with meter again) Next feed is a dunk to remove any leftover veg particles. after that it was just another day. Stats were 76F/64%RH/33% IL Vent and ppfd was 345 at highest, 315 at lowest, and 335 at center. Measurements are showing big growth over last week. Should be getting ready to see the 5th node separate off of the 4th soon. And looks to be healthy enough to top down to the 3rd for a mainline pruning strategy. With one plant growing this round I think that's the best way to get more yield with the space given. (last 4 pics are from this evening while the first 6 are this morning) Day 20 Day after 2nd nute feed checked soil ph this morning and seen 4.98 on the meter +1.25 calibration difference and I have 6.23 ph soil finally (exactly where I wanted it!) And I can tell the plant liked the nutes... 1/2 inch taller and 1 inch out in each direction since yesterday! Other than that stats were normal Room VPD is around 1.0 all day with temps at 73 to 74 and humidity at 60 to 65 with my IL Vent doing 33% now. Lights are tipping my 350 ppfd mark again, but tomorrow is week 3 to 4 and I think it can rest there for another day. I will want to try to keep it about that level until end of week 3 as well so I'll be adjusting them at some point in the next couple of days.
