In the end of week 3, so good so far. She still drinks less than normal I think (1 dl/day) but the soil is still wet. If anybody has an idea why, please let me know. But she looks okay, so hopefully I don't need to worry about it. She got some banana peels on Day 18, I dried some banana peels and ground it. Fed her 3x this week with BioBizz nutrients. On other days she got pure rainwater (6.4 ph.) or no watering if the soil wasn't dry. I think it is better to receive less water than to be overwatered, so the roots will look for water and grow better, and stronger roots, plus less risk to rotten roots. This is my first growth, so please let me know your opinion. :) On day 19, I did some LST, and I will continue next week.

I'm not sure if I should use my led light on full power? I know in the vegetative phase she needs 300-700 PPFD and I have a PPFD meter (app). On full power, I place the light around 45-50 cm from her to get around 500 PPFD but I don't trust the app , so what do you think guys?

The app is consistent in measuring light on the same device but it is not a true quantum sensor that can give an accurate readout of PPFD, If the app is calibrated using a sensor then it is golden and is almost as good, but in order to calibrate it you need a sensor. So what you can do is use the app to find the "right number", just know that number is wrong but it will always be the same amount of wrong. so as an example, if at 15" away and its reading 2000PPFD and your plants are doing well under it. make that your number to aim for. 2000PPFD would burn them if it was accurate but its not so it works, numbers are not the same on other devices has always be the same device best to use white paper to diffuse light into the camera lens if going this route. Also look at your lighting specs, most good lights come with a PPFD map on different hang heights. all Spider farmer and Marz lights have this data. https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71iz91RlXnL._AC_SX679_.jpg I think this is your light from the information I gathered off your diary. I'd aim for a hang height of 18-20" to start off. You could also hang it lower 12-15" and dim it down to 50% your call. Be aware that LED has UV diodes, can be damaging to your eyes and skin wear protection. Good Luck!

Some weeks ago I noticed my runoff water PH is a little bit high, and the nutrients level was also too high, so I decided to water her with 5.5 ph tap water until the PH will be corrected. But after 2 weeks it's worstthen before Now the ph is 7.2

It sounds like it could be the soil you're using, at this point with the plant so close to being I would do what you did last time and water her with 5.5 pH tap water until the PH is corrected.

It's totally normal to have an higher pH and lower EC on the drain side. It is how the plant works.. the high nutrient levels in your substrate is probably a result of constant overdose.. A tip from my side, keep ur focus on a better VPD!

@GoldenFinger, Thanks bro, you too 😎

Good luck bro! I’ll follow your grow, let’s see how green gelato turns out :) Rainwater has a ph value of 5.5 - 5.8. Im using tab water with about 7.3, but the BioBizz fertilizers do lower it for me (at least that’s what I researched). I don’t have a ph meter.

@Introvertalent, sadly I don’t have access to rainwater, but I let the tab water always sit for 1-2 days or use aqua safe to get rid of the chlorine.

@plantslave, Thanks bro, I also follow yours. pH is Critical. I recommend buying a pH meter and pH up/down to adjust pH just in case. I prefer rainwater with fewer chemicals, and because tap water contains chlorine :/

Yo what are you using for checking the trichomes? Good luck for the rest of the grow! ☺️

@plantslave, I tried some loupes from amazon 30x 60x but nothing can beat my iPhone 13 Pro Max :D

@Mirslav, Yeah I hope I can keep it under 100 cm with LST so it will fit in the tent. 😀

Looking good bro!! I was looking at that brand of light you have, Fecida, on Amazon the other night. I'm interested to hear your thoughts on it. How do you like it so far?

@Indicaman2015,Thanks. Fecida does the job very well I think. But I can not compare as this is my first LED light 😀
