The start of this week brings day 17 veg. 1/7/24 is the 1 month marker since I initiated the seeds to soaking. I cleared out the tent, removed the 2 humidifiers & replaced them with the T7. It's a powerhouse of a cloud maker. Had to dial It's maximum back from 10 to 6. LMAO on 10 looks like a cryo chamber with the fog coming out the zipped zips. I couldn't ask for better results so far, given all the years it's been and all the very new and "modern" tech really help to ease the workload. I know it's not the perfect grow, but the more time moves forward, I feel like I'm getting everything tweeked in better and better & I'm learning from my mistakes. Had to tackle a mold gnat problem that was introduced with the new soil used to repot. Caught it early. Household H2O2 diluted with distilled water 1:3 ratio worked wonders. I like this method... seems to really scatter the adults out of the tent better than neem and also takes care of any nests that may exist. Also removed several tie downs to encourage strength and stretching at the top a bit more. It's a rotational process. 1/10/24 Nothing major... some minor defoliation to shine some light in on Phenotype "A" which is my complete tie down experiment. I'm really liking how it's forming. Just a repeat of letting loose to stretch the tops and tying down to focus on inner growth. 1/12/24 A rinse and repeat of LST training now going in on Phenotype "B". Everything is looking good ar this point. Still trying to rid off a few remaining Fungus Gnats. Also raised VPD to .7 slowly from .5 from last week.

Very nice plants so far, the graduation of the light cycle may not be as important as you may think I've done similarly with my Optic Led 3 way adjustable light and controller after about 3 runs it really made no difference except to cut down on PPFD and DLI. I start at 50% then to needed power then just off at the end. Your investment in gear will pay off!! Nice way to get back into the game best of

CRANKSTER_420commented9 months ago
@ToastFarmer, Thanks I appreciate it. With my old gear back in the day it was on and done. There was no easing into the light cycle. The new tech is fantastic with a few caveats. For example the controller 69 pro doesn't forward DST to individual ports even though it will update in the main system. Super glad I stayed up to 2am to monitor this. So with all 8 ports customed programed with day and night schedules, that was a slight pain. Old school timers keep trucking along without worry. As far as the graduation of the light cycle... it's really important in my eyes for this specific grow. Let me explain my thinking... The S16 & S11 only take 72 min to fire up to full power and they're actually on 12hr 20min cycles. They're surprisingly bright when tandemed together in a 3x3. On 10 minutes before overhead fixture, Off 10 minutes after. I now have them to full power in 50 minutes stepping up a level every 5 minutes. I have the overhead stepping up in levels every 12 minutes since phenotype "A" of SLH is only 6" from the fixture. I don't want to burn the top. It's became a balancing act and IMO (I don't have a good PPFD/DLI/PAR/LUX meter YET!) I'm striking middle ground quite well. I'm going old school and slowly stepping up and observing along with taking readings using an app. Seems to be working really well so far and if it fairs out, I may wait a little while before committing on buying a good meter. I appreciate you calling it out. I thought about super cropping, but I don't feel that's necessary now. I absolutely would reduce if not eliminate it all together if it wasn't for SLH which has over tripled in size the last 3 weeks. I'll upload pics showing this later on. They're starting to fill out nicely.

@OhioriverHomestead, Nice Bro if you still have some come harvest maybe we'll have to compare our results! Back in the day, before I had kids, I grew this for a minute. Really hoping for that award winning super lemon flavor in one of these girls. They are so different and have been since day 1 so I'm somewhat hopeful to score one this time. If not I still have 2 seeds left. @ILGM don't let me down. That said, I haven't had a SLH pheno that I regretted yet. Last time, had 2 as well (buddy mothered) and one had a lemon zest to it - it was settle and smooth. The other was a chronic high with none of the terps I was expecting. I'm running the Samsung LM301B LED that came with the tent w/ S11 IONBEAM Bars as supplemental lighting on the sides. Come flower I'll be utilizing the the IONBEAM U4 Targeted spectrum as well. If you go back to my first week I give a rundown of equipment & links to each. This LED thing is completely new to me... love the utility savings and how I can adjust brightness on the fly.

Congrats on the legal grow, wish my state was legal too. One day. They're looking great, looks like 10 years absence from growing no issue! You mentioned the small 3x3 tent... I've been using a 2x2x5 tent the past 3 years since it's a low-profile grow. At first I tried fitting 4 plants in there was which nuts. Zero space once they bushed out. I dialed back to 1 plant which worked well. I'll get a bigger tent once it's legal here. Happy growing buddy!

@@Chunga, might want to rethink it. Tie down got kinda outta control. Especially if the strain is a stretcher!

@@Chunga, Thanks again. We can't learn unless we experiment. So I 💯 agree with you. As stated in week 1 of diary, I want have fun with it. I've always believed plants in general feed off positive vibes and care. Speaking of funny... or ironic rather, I waited for this moment since the 90s. I've settled down a hair since and decided to have a family. I still live in spitting distance from my home town. Shit goes legal, and here I'm stoked, feeling like I've aquired a small fortune in Amazon stocks... yet all my bros who I envisioned sharing this moment with, are MIA due to cleaning up, getting locked up, dead or got the hell outta Dodge? This is not quite the way I envisioned my first legal grow 20 yrs ago lmao! Not sure how many in this community has experienced this... kinda bitter-sweet. But there are a few of my bros who got their own grows going strong. As of now our harvest looks staggered just right that we've made a pact to aide each other during the trim process. That is the moments I'm looking forward to. We're all growing killer strains that are different.

@@CRANKSTER_420, Yep, only a matter of time... once the pols finally catch up with public opinion. it's funny how every grow is an experiment. Your LST looks awesome. Agreed, the tie down would be good for my tent, will be trying it this year. 👍
