Plants look good. Had a cold spell here and the room got really cold. Bumped the lights up to 10. Noticed some leaf tacoing so I bumped it down to 9 today. Plants were ready for the autopot system to be turned on day 12. Vpd is at 1.1. noticed some leaves with spots on them at the base of the plant on the orange biscuits and 4 assed monkey so I cut them off (only four total). Tucked one of the leaves on the four assed monkey to let some light get to the lower branches. I added a brew belt around my resivoir and plugged it into an inkbird to get the resivoir temp up. It was at 61 degrees when I turned the system on. Now it is at a more comfortable 65 degrees. Resivoir has ten gallons in it. Mixed one gallon of nutes (measured for 10 gallons) then added that to the resivoir.
Merry Christmas!
Edit: noticed some leaf burning on the tips and some spots on several leaves. Not sure if this is from the temperature dips that occurred this week and lighting disturbances from losing power for ten hours last Monday. Topped the reservoir with two gallons of plain water and brought the ec down to 1.9. hopefully this will dillute the nutes to a more comfortable level. Leaves were still tacoing on the 4 assed monkey so I dropped the lights down to level 8. Turned the system off for about a day and a half and just turned it back on. Will let it drink all day and reassess tomorrow.
how far do you have the lights from the plants now and on what level? i have the same light and got some light stress from level 6 and having them to close.
Sorry, just saw this. I have had my lights up all the way to the top of the tent since I set it up. I've been using the phontone app to check the DLI and adjusting the intensity to the recommended par levels. The light was 29 inches away last week when I posted this. Since then the plants have grown a lot more. I'll measure light distance again this weekend, but I'm guessing right now the light is about 26-27 inches away now.
I turned my lights up to level 10 today because we are having a cold spell right now and the basement where the tent is is hard to keep warm.
