The outside temperature getting lower this days. Its help a lot to maintain temps in grow box
I hope, as per the forecast, temperature will remain low during the upcoming week.
The ladies are looking fantastic. Purple Lemonade is slowest on flowering but i think it will be rewarding to wait
Tropicana Cookies are racing toward harvest; .

Today, we had a storm accompanied by a power outage. Nothing serious, just a few hours. The temperature and humidity remained within appropriate values.
Upon the return of power, the DH48-S relay timer, which controls irrigation, failed again. This has happened for the third time in the last 4 months.
Unfortunately, I couldnβt react immediately, so the ladies were without water again for a few hours.
Iβve ordered a TrolMaster program device and additional sensors AMP-3 for pH, EC and humidity, and temperature control. No more messing around!
Water consumption is gradually decreasing, and electrical conductivity of the water is slowly rising. Iβm starting to reduce the strength of the nutrient solution.
Each subsequent tank refill will be at approximately 1.0EC.
The outdoor temperature is still cooler; letβs hope it stays that way for another week or two! π±βοΈ

Tropicana Cookies is the only one that got scars in the form of slightly burnt leaf tips. Itβs not too severe; due to the lack of water, some mineral residue remained directly at the root.
All in all, it could have been worse. I hope the timer wonβt deceive me again until my TrolMaster program device arrives.
One Tropicana Cookies and one Wedding Cheesecake will finish during the next week, so Iβll slowly start preparing them for harvest.
Purple Lemonade and one Wedding Cheesecake will continue flowering into the ninth week, but theyβll be the largest ladies in this batch.
All the ladies look and smell fantastic, and the buds are already firm to the touch, especially the Wedding Cheesecake.
Starting tomorrow, Iβll gradually reduce the nutrient strength and light intensity. Iβll make an effort to keep the temperature around 23-24Β°C.

53kW electricity in total for light, Pumps and AC Infinity Fans. 51kW for Light + 1kW Dehumidification + AC Infinity ventilation
Week start @ 1.21EC, nutrient strength., keep strength @ 1.1-1.2 till the end of the week
Tropicana Cookies is gonna be harvested next week!! Also think one Wedding Cheesecake is waiting harvest in next week
PH was stabile and move from 5.90 min to 6.2 max. From end off the week PH is start to dropping
Light distance for this week - 50-55cm from tallest top , PPFD levels around 900 in center, trough whole week. Lowest reading 680 @ corner
Temperature are from 20c at start off day to 24.5c max at some points.
Night temps around 19.5-20c. Outside humidity is generally low
This week i have DH48-S timer failure, third time in this month. Ordered TrolMaster program device for that
Day RH is moved from 45% to 55% max, at night times drop to 45-48%
Continue in next week, lowering temperatures, EC strength and humidity
