19/12/2023 '(Day 56):
24th day of 12/12 in the 4x4. The new se 5000 's light spectrum is still improved compared to my 2021 model. The plants really love it.
At 75/80%, +/- 30cm from canopy the ppfd is always > 550 and somewhere between 850/900. The red has been enriched. And the panel is much lighter and rigid.
It took less than a week to be delivered and still less for the 40W ir/uva bars.
Good !
However, the new driver for the 3 grows old 2021 SE 5000 whose shipment was already being arranged a week ago... should after new inquiries live China (...) in 1 ('or 2 ! :) working days.
So much the better that I'm not anymore in a hurry !!
We'll see next week !
The 40W uva/ir:
It looks like the uva "electrify' the plants a bit and makes them wilder. I give them 6x15 mn during the day cycle. The stretch also quasi stopped this week: Only +2 cm.
For the ir , 10mn before the SE5000 is off and then 10 more minutes. You can see how deeply the ir penetrates the plants and after +/- a week, it looks like flowering is slightly in advance.
The way the device is built, you need a digital timer and to switch from uva to ir twice a day. I still find it pleasant after a week but it won't last :)
Or...You get a 2nd pair of bars and use one for uva and the other for ir .
For the plants, it's all good ! The Colombian Jack is the strongest (and tallest) that I ever had.
The zamaldelica is the heavy drinker ( in both tents) and 1 Forecast more than 300g dry for both plants.
The Do- G is doing as great as I expected after it's first grow ! Can't wait.
And.. Everything's alright for both Amnesi K lemon π
- In the 3x3 : 17 th day of 12/12: A bit of stretch but not that much :) Flowering has started.
The monkey grease is a killer and managed to preserve its space against the Zamaldelica x Kali China and even to take some on her ! More and more bud sites from everywhere. Very suitable for scrog.
Both sativa dream are doing fine although they would deserve more space... Next time !
I'm quite happy with the grows for now and wish everything goes on well for the coming couple of months π
