Plants are loving being under the second added 300 W equivalent Viparspectra LED. Raised light a few inches. Pulled back on nutrients. Watered thoroughly with garden sprayer. Only 1 watering per week needed so far. I'm being very careful not to over water or over feed. Lowering ph with homebrew kombucha which is mildly acidic and full of nutrients. Sun-Tuesday I went from 24 hrs light to 20, 17, 14 and 12 Wednesday.
As my strains need 8 - 10 weeks to flower, I needed to start flowering now to be around to dry, trim & start curing before Burning Man (first week of September) so I can enjoy going home without worry. (Will have minions assist with the cure).
Covered power strip lights with electrical tape. Space is open in daytime during lights-on time and closed at night/lights off. Keeping light centered on daytime to allow a cooler environment at night and optimize a day/night temperature differential given that I live in a very mild temperate zone and hear a little differential makes for good buds.
@TheFairyBudMother, great stuff i'd love to start a worm farm just not yet... i think building your soil is the way to go.. but till then... i mix coco fiber with my canna soil 1:4 then add the scoops of mycorrhizae needed and voila my gurlz drink like champions!! :) hopefully it'll work for others!
@JUNGLE_B4RNS, I rewatched the videos. That guy repeats himself a lot! But it makes more sense now. It's very overwhelming to take in all the little details of cannabis cultivation when you're just starting.
Thanks for your help. I can't wait to grow again but it will have to wait about a month. In the meantime if I have time and energy, I may cook my own soil mix, and I am definitely starting a worm farm.
Fairy bud mother where have you been my whole life? I've been searching for my bud mother lol jkjk but on a real note I like your style, your buds look beautiful! Smoke the bomb stay calm and grow on chika 😉
