ILGM Cali Strains

Hi All, Happy Week 4! Pre-Flower! This week the plants started to show their first pistils along their stems. I topped dressed the earth boxes with a layer of worm castings and a layer of build a flower for an extra nutrition boost. The plants were watered twice this week: 1/4 gal/each on days 26 and 28. I've noticed that the soil in the front corner of the boxes has been drying out. This is because the cover (for reasons I don't understand) has a pre-cut opening there, exposing the soil to the grow light. I can't see any feeder roots growing in the dry soil, and the earthbox jr is too small to have any ungrowable space. So I patches the opening with a piece of black trash bag. After, the soil underneath was no longer dried out. Hopefully some roots will grow in there over the next couple weeks. Grow conditions are mostly the same this week: high-70s to low-80s during when the light is on, mid-60s during the night cycle. The grow light intensity was increased to 100% this week. I'm keeping the light ~ 16-18 inches from the top of the smallest plant (LA Kush Cake). This week, the humidifier was added. It is set to auto-regulate to a target VPD of ~1.10. With a leaf offset of -4 degrees, this works out to about 55%RH. Finally, the Zevo seems to have killed off all the gnats. There are no more flying around the tent, and I didn't see any when I uncovered the boxes to top dress the soil or to add the garbage bag patches. Have a nice week!
