Topping on branches that going into outer side off screen
Clean and disinfect tanks and filters with h2o2+vinegar acid +bleach
Mix new batch with 1.8ml AN connoisseur AB + 0.3ml CalMag + Silica + 0.3ml UV balance @ 1% H2o2 - total 20l
Donne one pass off long misting 10s with diluted nutrient solution 0.78EC
Flush buckets with diluted solution, replace misting nozzles with clean, not clogged but they gone into ultrasonic cleaner
Set Co2 controller to 950ppm

Detailly clean grow room floor, benches and main room floor,
Open and inspect waist collecting buckets, great condition PH-5.99, EC 0.83, Temp 21, EC is always lower than input, good think
From this week start feeding more, runoff is 1/3 lower than input
Working on SCROG, banding branches , soon they need defoliation
Lower humidity to 58-60%
Lower temp in pressurize tank by adding colder solution before pump start kick in, think need to reconsider water chiller for vine fridge
Will see in flowering with longer misting cycles, it will bring more cool water to solenoids..

Last night forget to move valve after inspecting filter before nozzlesπ±. Girls didn't have water for at least 9-12 hours π°
Realizing that, put long mist 3 x 13s and continue at regular cycles
Flush all buckets with 2/3 diluted solution
Hydrating is apparent after coupe off hours , some leaf cant be recovered, this mistake will cost probably more/less than a weekπΊ

Well girls survived but with lots off scars, Many leaves cant be recovered-damaged
Lower temps and light a bit for a day , two... Don't want to push them hard at this point..

@FrontRowAG_BrianG,
30l White buckets are from corn syrup got it used for free, it cost in my country 1eur, wrap it with two layers off thermal insulation and white stretchy foil, all connectors are for RO water , and 14mm rubber gaskets around misting nozzles are from Ali Express. Everything is much cheaper than any hydro system to make and easier, first time no dripping at all
@WhiteEdge, Thanks for visiting my corner of GD. My ladies and i appreciate the love π. Apollo is so close to harvest. I think within a week. I get hit in the face with citrus diesel when I open the tent. And she is sticky.
@Golden,
Hello Golden, well i hope for around +-1000g from this 4 girls....In past with Nirvana strains its easily done.. Let see in new Aero watering..
Nirvana is great!
@WhiteEdge, YUP you are 100% right. Keep those temperature gaps close in VEG & EARLY FLOWER and we will get no extra stretch, Just what is within the genetic code of the cultivar being grown. Surprisingly you will find out with proper light intensity & temperature management, Not many strains stretch and get super lanky. Most all grow fairly robust and stalky
