Automatic Outdoor grow Greenhouse

HowieMcHowie The plants went straight into the large pots right after germination and are currently in the greenhouse. The weather is mild at the beginning of May, and it’s not too hot inside yet. The humidity is increased/kept stable by a humidifier.

HowieMcHowie It's happening. On very hot days, it can reach 40 degrees. Accordingly, the humidity is quite low. I keep it high with soil moisture and a humidifier. I support the stem training with a fan.

HowieMcHowie Watering is done every 4 days. In the meantime, I've added mycorrhizal fungi to the watering.

HowieMcHowie The plants are strong and crave light. The weather is very gloomy. Lots of rain showers. I'm trying to increase the low humidity with an electronic humidifier (see 1 video).

HowieMcHowie A lot has happened. The weather has been good. The humidity and temperatures are sometimes extreme (40 degrees / 25% humidity). The plants don't seem to mind too much. The Auto Orange was the first to start. By now (day 36), all of them are showing their pre-flowering. The Auto Orange are both around 60 cm. The Lemon Kix have all grown very tall. Two of them are scratching at 90 cm. They're also starting to smell. The water requirement is increasing as well. I have to water every two days. They get Batboost every time. Bloom is given every second time. I've done some LST. I can only leave the plant benders on for a maximum of 2 days. If they're on longer, the shoots break at the bender. Probably tying them down and securing them to the pot would be the best option.

HowieMcHowie Meanwhile, all the plants are fully in bloom. I water them every two days. I've replaced the small fan with a larger 40cm/50W one. It's mounted upside down on the ceiling and provides air circulation, especially at night when the humidity goes up to 80%. The smell is getting a bit more intense. I'm still doing a little LST, but I only leave the bends on for a maximum of 2 days. I don't want a third side branch to break off.

HowieMcHowie I took the 2 Auto Orange out of the greenhouse and put them on the balcony. This way, the remaining plants have more space and I can get to them better. On hot days, it’s over 40 degrees with 25% humidity. I often water them twice a day.

HowieMcHowie The buds have clearly gained volume. On almost all plants, the first lower fan leaves are turning yellow. As long as it stays like this, I won't increase the amount of fertilizer. I'll wait until they almost fall off by themselves and then remove them. Unfortunately, the weather isn't on our side. There’s definitely more to come. They still have a few weeks left. By the end of the week, the water demand has noticeably decreased. At that point, I also stopped using the Big Bud fertilizer. For the next while, I will ramp up the Batboost and Bloom again.
