Critical Orange Punch

Day 8, 3/31/24 Today I didn't do much in the room. I mainly let them do their thing. I'm going to try to start a time lapse in the morning and hopefully I can get a full 18 hours in. Day 9, 4/1/24 Today I just made sure the substrate was moist and the PPFD was good. Also added labels to each bucket so I can get rid of those cups and added some gnat traps. Day 10, 4/2/24 I moved the lights around today to optimize space and make it to where I can get to the plant I have in DWC easier. Day 11, 4/3/24 I didn't really do much other than basic maintenance today. I've had silica for the next feeding sitting in water for 2 days now so hopefully it doesn't mess with the cal mag when I mix it now. They will be getting their only dose of silica. I like how it stiffens them up some and make some more sturdy. Anything more than that's overkill though. Day 12, 4/4/24 Today they got watered with silica for the first time. I'll let it sit for 2 days so mixing in the cow mag was no issue. This will probably be the only time they get fed silica but I like to do it once. The nutrients ph'ed at 6.53, and the ppm was 547. They should take all of this pretty well. Day 13, 4/5/24 Today I mainly just watched them to make sure they didn't have any diverse effects from the silica but they seem to have taken it nicely. Day 14, 4/6/24 Wow they have exploded with growth! They loved their nutrients!
