Automatic RQS. Fat Banana and Royal Critical. My 3rd grow. 600w HPS in 120x120x210cm Tent!
24th June
[HOT AF]
We goin gooood boys and girls! One week to harvest prolly.
Pics later.
btw. one of the flowering plant turn into hermie... I did palm-tech with her. Prolly the day where I left the house with closed windows... It was freaking hot inside...
Edit from same day. More pics.
[400W @ 30C @ 50%]
Almost the end of the grow of Lady BanaN (hermie plant) and Royal Critical. I don't have jewelry loupe, can't check Trichioms in proper way but they were looking kinda "clear" a week ago and now they are more cloudy. Gonna wait around 2 weeks and chop. But imma chop it earlier if the buds gonna be burned/damaged or something idk. It defo didn't smell that nice a week ago, now it gives that... better/proper smell. It smells kinda like Amnesia Haze, Hazey-Citrus smell.
Ofc Because Lady Banan was hermie she got mandatory HST and grows SUPER FREAKING FAT main cola. Royal Critical is... meh... but nice... And the other plants are just freaking growing even bigger...
Shroomy doing good, small and bushy. Watered her few times and I just noticed that mycelium everywhere around hah, I think Im gonna save it for future grow (just keep the mycelium alive).
Plants under carbon filter are like... 150-160cm (with pot) I guess its because there is just air circulation, which is good to see that my tent is not perfect everywhere and I need more fans or something.
I thought about temps and lights. I saw more "praying leaves" at 400W then 550/600W.
I can see them now in last 2 days where I switched to 400W cuz its hot af...
Cold water shocks roots for sure. I can see my new plants don't like cold water that much. They need time to recover after watering and I don't think that's "good stress".
Ripping of branches (Palm Tech yoyoyoyo) on hermie plants is my way to go now. But I really think that I should do it to all plants. Just rip off 2 maybe 3 lower nodes. The FROST, the SIZE, the SMELL of that Lady BanaN is just... Top Quality. That Royal Critical growing next to it looks like a scam, literally.
25th June
Its getting so hot I had to lower watts on ballast from 400W to idk... one down and there is two more to 250W so... 350? 375? idgaf Its around 30C and around 50% RH
Lady Banan was outside the tent for few hours yesterday and today she got more frosty? I hope it's not my imagination but Im doing it again, I think I'll just try to stress her for that last week or two. Water, light and fresh air like always but I'll occasionally scream at her or dance around so she feel something is not ok. I hope at this point she not gonna produce any seeds...
Royal Critical - week 11 cuz she was there since day 1 where at day 1 instead of Fat Banana I had Northern Light that didn't make it. She looking good but still bit puffy nugs so I cut the test and... ye next few days Im cutting whole plant.
I got freaking temp. laser pistol but didn't spend 10 euro more for jewelry loupe or something to check trichioms. I'll chop prolly too late because my first 2 grows I chop too early. So I rly hope its gonna be like that xd Im eye balling everything here literally and it turns out not that bad so... we will see
WE CHOPPIN AT THE END OF THIS WEEK BOYS N GIRLS!
I chopped both.
Hot af. Im at 250W and 31C @ 60RH.
Not gonna update anymore for the rest of my tent.
Gonna prolly update the smell and taste from dehydrator-drying method.
PEACE AND HAPPY GROWING GROWMIES!
So I have noticed yellow mushroom growing in one of my pots. After reading about it I kinda know its from high humidity in the night, so Im gonna work on that but what should I do with the mushroom? I have read I can leave it cuz it doesn't matter. True? False?
The mushroom is just the fruit of the organism. Your soil is full of mycelia by now, and this often indicates not only that the soil is a bit damp but also that you have a functioning and balanced ecosystem in your pot 👊😉.
@emanresU, funny I also have the same problems (temp and humidity). my lights turn off at noon and then turn on in the afternoon, so that the lamp is off when the sun and temp are the highest. Still did reach 28°C at one point.
Same for my 40-50% humidity. Here I just gave up besides having the plants covered with an improvised water bottle Humidity dome half of the day. Waterbucket with a wet towel did help a bit, but I did remove it - scared of mold and such things.
@taprootArmy, Lady BanaN is still inside the tent. Im gonna chop it in next few following days, Im really thinking she can pull out one more "frost-combo" so Im stressing her for now. Few hours outside the tent, few hours inside the tent etc.
@emanresU, why do you have such high temps anyways if it is 20°C outside? Is it the HPS lamp? If thats the case, you really should replace it with an LED or at least get a cooltube or smth...
Or do you have no exhaust fan?
Anyways, good that it is at least half way on track again. Good luck, keep going
