Epsilon F1 first Grow

HanesGrow The seedlings appeared on day 3 and 4 after starting germination. I replanted them into the final pot on day 5. On day 6 i watered them for the first time with 1L water for each plant. I have to use 4 heating mats to keep the temperature at 21°C (day) because my basement is to cold at the moment.

HanesGrow Added some Biobizz Root Juice and Biogrow Fertilizer on Day 16. The soil takes a lot of time to dry out. I lowered humidity and dimmed my main Light to 100% output.

HanesGrow Starting LST this week. Changed the lighting schedule to 20/4 and put the dark period into the afternoon. Dark Period temps are still as low as 16.5 °C.

HanesGrow Added extra LED lights. Now running at 204 Watts of combined power. They are still short but are finally starting to stretch a bit. All plants are showing first signs of flowering. I noticed that my exhaust hose on the outside of the growbox disconnected itself and blew the air inside the room and not outdoors. Feel pretty stupid now and don't know if it happened days or weeks ago. I used a hose clamp instead of duct tape so hopefully it won't happen again.

HanesGrow The plant on the bottom right is way ahead of the other 3. Probably because its next to the air intake and directly gets the dry air from outside. I tried everything to lower the humidity but its still 60% (22°C) with lights on and close to 70% (17°C) with lights off. Bit the bullet and ordered an 10L/day 200W dehumidifier. It keeps the temperature at 24°C and RH at 40-50 %. Could still turn the settings up if i need more. The Power consumption of the growbox is now at around 0,3-0,4 kwh.

HanesGrow Week 6 of flowering. The Biobizz fertilizer chart isn't made for Autoflower so I'll carefully increase the fertilizer this week. Bought an oscillating fan to increase ventilation. The Dehumidifier is already running less often and it'll save me money in the long run.

HanesGrow Week 7. Smells nice. I increased fertilizer again. No other changes.

HanesGrow I will harvest one plant soon. The other 3 still need more time. Waiting for some amber trichomes to show up in my microscope.

HanesGrow Harvesting my fist plant this week. I've read that stopping watering before harvest will increase resin production. You can see that most leafs on the bottom right plant turned yellow. Most of its trichomes are cloudy with a few amber ones here and there.

HanesGrow Week 10

HanesGrow Harvested on day 83.
