Having some difficulties this week. Lots of rain and an ill timed departure of my sump pump caused 5” of standing water in the basement. Luckily this tent is ~3” off the ground on a pallet so it didn’t get too messed up. Humidity got up to 80% briefly for a day but hopefully everything is under control. Not sure if it’s nutrient burn or a deficiency but I have some burn just on the leaf tips.
Also having issues with water not recirculating properly and overflowing; a combination of the roots blocking and the hardware/fittings used being too small. For now I’ve just unplugged the recirculating on pump in the reservoir and blocked it up higher than the bucket in the tent - it doesn’t recirculate but it has air stones in both buckets and will gravity feed. It’s a fix for now until I can redesign the buckets.
Averages for this week:
72F
62RH
1.05 VPD
At the start of the week I fed GH flora 10 part week 3 (mid bloom) at medium strength, 6.4 ph, and defoliated everything below the scrog net.
Still stretching like crazy and really filling up the whole tent now, it’s crazy to think it used to share this tent with another plant.
Aside from the defoliation and all the little tweaks I’ve done to get the humidity out nothing has really changed. Next week I may mount the ac infinity fan outside the tent to gain some more vertical space.
Any tips or advice always appreciated, thanks for stopping in.
