Happy New Year Everyone. I trust you all had a great time over the festivities. My pride and joy is growing really well with no obvious issues which is always a good sign. I am now giving her PK13-14 along with the other nutrients, and she's soaking them all up. The buds are growing slow and steady. It's got to the point where I could quite easily spend most of my free time in the tent, possibly play a little music maybe talk sweet to her lol. It feels like I have another woman, well that's what the Mrs says anyway. Lol. As stated in my other diary I will be looking at the next stage and what to do when it comes to flushing the plants to make sure the end result can be the best it can be. I'll fill in all the information here anyway. So, that's this weeks update and not much to report other than I need to be more patient. Have a Great New Year and I am wishing you all the best with your own grow(s)

Grow Questions

Homegrown79started grow question 6 years ago
I looking to put a 20L dehumidifier into my tent (1.2x1.2x2.0) Is it best outside or inside of the tent? It also has an ioniser function. Is it best to turn this on or leave it off also. I'm having humidity issues. It's not overly high 65% but I would prefer it to be 50/55%

If you are exhausting the air of the tent outside into the room, then it does not matter if the dehumidifier is in or out. Before getting the dehumidifier, try raising the lights out temperatures that will keep the humidity down. A small heater will be cheaper to buy and operate.

Hi, its true higher Temperatures lower the Humidiy , but then take care everything above 28 degree( and you already have27) is in the " stresszone" .weed likes temps between 20-28 most. Happy growing

Homegrown79commented6 years ago
@Mrs_Larimar, that's about as high as the tent gets.

@Ganjagrandaddy, it is challenging but I really enjoy this hobby too.

dont worry too much about bending. monstercropping i think its called when in flower too. i often bend first then roll the stem between thumb and finger ,crushing it to makr it softer and floppy. it will still get nutes up to it so dont worry. they create knuckles to support weight . i have just done same to a few of my ladies. they recover fine . even if you snapped one by accident , you can tape it up well and still get them to harvest. do it slow and she will bend and relax into the new position ( sounds like wedding night advice ,sorry) if u squash a stem firmly enough you will hear a crack that does similar job to the rolling. will show you in photos on my next barneys farm journal update as i do one as an example

@Homegrown79, as an 8 week flowering strain ( +1or2 for ripenning and transition week) we have took in a task. keeping a woman happy for this long is usually unheard of .lol Will be worth the yield and quality though buddy. keep on doing what it is your doing. great job
Homegrown79
Homegrown79commented6 years ago
@Ganjagrandaddy, yeah mawe, I've managed to get it down to a reasonable percentage. The leaves are getting quite sticky now. I think I have about another 30 days in flower, as they are roughly 30 days since the switch. I hoping for a great yeild.

and they will mate. look into flushing myth before you deny her the food and growth loss potential. go for a slower dry could make all the diff to her swelling period. I am a firm believer that flushing was to save industrial farms 2 weeks of nutes , which leads to bigger profits overall. Our harvests are massively different to theor needs. Science does not really support flushing, even with all the hype of " agents" to buy. please at least have a read up before taking a action

@Ganjagrandaddy, I recently had to chop a plant only 2 days after feeding her , she was a hermit so danger of pollinating my tent, I didn’t get much as it was 3 weeks early but I was really surprised at how smooth it was and how even the burn was. I honestly think it’s because I didn’t over feed her and so will feed my girls up till last week now to see, so I agree from this one early harvest that it didn’t seem to make any difference to the taste. Except maybe extreme cotton mouth,,, but that could just be the weed lol.

Homegrown79commented6 years ago
@Ganjagrandaddy, I will definitely have a good read into flushing. I have seen 2 sides to the theory but more research is needed. I am still about 25 days from harvest anyway so hopefully get something good.

The Bigger the Plants get, the more HUmidity they transpirate.Is the HUmidity only in your tent=? or into your area so high=? I would place the dehumifidier in the Tent. And if its only in the tent so dampy, give a circulation and a good airflow, maybe its possible to open the tent=? If the Humidity is everywhere so high, keep the tent close and Put the dehumidifier inside.I wont use the ioniation function . dont see any good effects here

Mrs_Larimarcommented6 years ago
@Homegrown79,that should work, best of luck
Homegrown79
Homegrown79commented6 years ago
@Mrs_Larimar, the humidity is only high in the tent. I have put the humidifier in the tent and it seems to be doing the job. I have the tent open slightly and the window open so there's always a good airflow. Fingers crossed

@Ganjagrandaddy,very good mate, it's a skill I'll get better at. I didn't go too hard on them this time, but still managed to get a good shape. Next time I'll start it earlier. They are hardy plants and come back very, very quickly in fact in hours sometimes.
