The plant rose above the ground on the 24.6., this is Time Lapse ends on the 13th day of vefetation. I started the grow in my old cupboard grow sed up. I opted to upgrade the the Home Box Q80+ in the coming week. As i was using the Pro Mix i dont need to ad any nutrients for about 4 Weeks. Therefore for now I am only monitoring the amount of water i give them. As I decided to give Air Pots a try for this grow, I am intersted to see how much i can water, relative to my previouse grow with a fabric pot.

Still only watering ph'd water. The plants are actually quite different, the one in the front seems to expand out towards the sides much more the the one in the back. Also the colors of teh leaves are different

I put a net in to try to get a more even canopy and utilise the space of the tent. It didnt really work too well though. I ended up only leaving it in for periods as i found it really annoying to water and manage devices in the tent with the net in.

This week i defoliated a bit, as i wanted to have more light reach lower parts of the plant to increase bud sights and increase air flow through out the plants. Also I put in the net again in a nother attempt to even out the cannopy which didn't really work

As this will be the last time I defoliate I took away quite a few of the leaves. Maybe a little too many as most guides reccomend not taking more then 30% of the leaves in a single defoliation

The plant in the front is showing some sort of stress symptoms. All corners of all leaves are bend upwards. Generally also very interesting to see how different the phenotypes are of the two seeds. I have been feeding as recommended but havent been able to check the EC of the runoff as my meter hasnt arrived yet. So might be to do with the nutrients, maybe light or heat stress. As it is summer right now the temperatures have been quite challenging high

As the plants have been developing some brown dots on some leaves I suspected they might need some added calmag. I added a ml/l for a few waterings
