THURSDAY - 11/22 (Thanksgiving Day) I was out of town all day, so didn't spend any time with the girls...but I monitored them throughout the day with the nanny-cam...technology that I am thankful for. 😁 FRIDAY: Gertrude is a truly beautiful plant and her little sister, Gretyl is finally showing promise as well.. I watered them today with ph'd water, some boomerang, calimagic, bud candy, and terpinator. I foliar fed a couple times and rearranged the garden. I swapped out my 1500w blurple light for the 2000w blurple light....so now I'm pushing 1000 actual LED draw watts in the 4 x 4...kinda ridiculous, but in a good way.😎Tomorrow I'll swap out the 60w 3500k COB with a 100w Citizen Clu048 to fully overpower the remaining visible purple light with white light. Temps are about 90f by the end of the day and drop to 74f for the 4 hours of darkness they are now getting. SATURDAY: I foliar fed a few times and added the extra 40w of white COB light. Moved the fan and put my 4th Exhale bag in the tent..it's almost used up, so time to order another. Took some photos. SUNDAY: I slowly fed each of them about 48oz of ph'd water with the full regimen of bloom nutes and foliar fed a few times. The 4th bag of Exhale really bumped the CO2 PPM's up nicely..if I keep my exhaust fan on about 50% and it's a cold day, it works out great and the high reaches about 84....but sadly, if it's not a cold day, I'm pushing 90f for about 8 hours..but very rich in CO2..... Bottom line is that I think I'm running too many lighting watts in this tent if I can't maintain a more consistent air intake temperature. I'll probably go back with the 1500w blurple because it runs a few degrees cooler than the 2000w, so that will put me back to about 925w actual draw watts...at least until we have another cold spell. MONDAY: I foliar fed a few times and rotated them. Temps stayed low last night...nice. Gertrude is flowering nicely, but Gretyl is still vegging. TUESDAY: I foliar fed a few times and spun them around. Gertrude went berserker and put on a couple inches on every branch. Gretyl is still on a 4" pedestal to even the canopy, but she's growing vertically a little every day. She's showing a few pistils now...hopefully she starts stretching now. WEDNESDAY: It was a good week for them both. Both plants grew a few inches they are healthy. I watered them today, each with about 1/3 gallon of ph'd water, bud candy, terpinator, and extra calimagic. I foilar fed a few times and rotated them.

You have a nice Harvest but, $9.00 for seeds & $167.50 for nutes, plus the electric bill? I suppose it better than Street Prices but, Wow! I guess somebody needs to explain the benefits of all those nutrients vs. NPK & Water. Anyways, I hope you are enjoying your harvest!

@R_Owl_Mirror, No sweat man.. As a kid, back in the 70's, I grew outdoors with nothing but miracle grow and miracle bloom. In the late 80's and early 90's I had a closet garden and grew hydro in cheap plastic basins with 2 or 3 liter cola bottles with the tops cut off and lava rock stolen from Taco Bell...very minimalistic. Back in the days before hydro shops and the internet, you had to be a commercial grower to get access to hydro nutes, or you spent many hours a week creating your own. Nowadays, it's all so easy. For example, the Big Bloom fertilizer I use is derived in almost exactly the same formulation that I used to concoct myself. For $16 per grow, or less, I have what took me 2+ hours per week to make myself...and I had a shed full of big bags of worm castings, bat guano, etc..and it's hard to explain away all that stuff unless you have a beautiful lawn or garden as a cover...and with a big indoor garden, a job, and a family, who has the time for that?!??πŸ˜€

@Silverback_Guerilla, I didn't intend to be insulting in any way. I guess I was just surprised at the complete list of various products you gave. I am a minimalist in regards to what a plant needs to survive & thrive. I've been growing my own for 40+ years and am continually amazed at how people buy/use so many products in our consumer-driven world. Like the difference between people using expensive rooting hormones when cloning, when in fact the best results can be achieved by snipping the new growth branches from a weeping willow, either soaking the branches in your water can or drying them, crushing them and mixing the fibers in your water. As an example of minimalism. I am sorry if my comment came across as harsh in any way. Peace!

@R_Owl_Mirror, Don't be daft......that "cost" they show for seeds and nutes isn't what people actually paid, dude...it's just what a full container of each of the listed nutrients would cost (somewhere I guess)...I buy on Amazon for the most part and pay far less than retail, and a single grow doesn't use all of the nutes in the containers...and yes, I am enjoying the fruits of my labor. And when you think about it, even if it did cost me a couple hundred bucks for a single grow (which it didn't), 16+ ounces of top-shelf bud for a couple hundred bucks is an uber-bargain.

@Silverback_Guerilla How much longer are you going to let them go before harvest? They look solid my friend nice work so far. 😎

@HighTV, Thanks! Gertrude, the paler one with bamboo stakes, probably got her last feeding today. She should have been planted in a 5 gallon pot. Pretty sure she's been rootbound for a couple weeks now. I'll flush her twice over a 10-day period starting in a few days. I think Gretyl, the bluish-green plant, won't quit making calyx and pistils for another couple weeks or more. She's got enough foliage left to have the energy she'll need.πŸ‘
