End of week 4: All good, left them alone for abit after doing the toppings and LST. A little bit more watering due to hotter days.
used my own cannabis leaf tea that I brew cold in a bigger jar. Smells worse than manure but makes the leaves greener and gives nutrients back that I took defoliating
Some defoliation on the bottom, where I cut new shoots that have no real chance of growing to the top.
The seed making project just needs some time to get ripe seeds, just waiting there.
Pest managament:
Stopped neem oil, turns out there is not much going on with insects. 1 or 2 gnats thats it.
I still have the BTI in the water but not that many fungus gnats. I will dial it back and see if less BTI works for this.
Beginning of week 4, guess who got a microscope....
IVE made a diy light using 16 individual 30 WATT(300 WATT EQUIVALENT) 10 are 3000k 6 are 5000k. At 18" it puts out over 1200 ppfd and my plants grow fast and healthy as any light I've ever bought . Nice work
@Grow_Shack_Kev, the 4 E27 I have now are 4000k and 13W so a total of 50w. That particular set up has some definite PPFD hotspots but that works fine for plants in different stages. The bigger plant gets 600ppfd and the cuttings around 100.
