Here we go! Today week 2 started. We encounter our first problems, but don't worry, we'll figure it out! The 2 big leafs of each plant are drooping a bit, also hints of yellowing. After analyzing everything it is very certain who the culprit is - simply too much heat. We had crazy hot summer days for 4 days straight, temperature inside the box was 30-35°C every day, peaking at over 37°. Didn't do damage at first, but now it's visible. The two plants at the back are also CONSIDERABLY smaller, I guess because they got even less airflow (even when I open the box from time to time the air doesn't change up so much in the back) and thus more heat. My ventilation system still isn't installed, had a lot of stuff happening these days but I'll do it this week for sure, I swear mom! After it'll be installed there should be a good airflow even at the very back of the box, removing excess hot, stagnant air. For now I moved the lamp one level up, risking slowing down the grow a little bit but removing a lot of heat. If you're wondering they can't have light stress, I measured it and we are completely in the norm there. Back to topic, I'm not gonna water the guys for 2-3 days, it's a form of LST, don't spoil your kids too much :p it'll force the roots to search for water and reinforce them (I hope). Also if the issues occur from over watering (which I don't assume but you never know 100%) it'll counter that. After those 2-3 days I'll continue with normal fertilizing scheme from terra aquatica which is 1ml/l for early veg. I'll reduce water TDS from 1.2 to 1 since the substrate should be saturated by now. Day 13 Update: yesterday I bend over two of my girls (lol) and today another one, the last one is the smallest and she will be 3-5 days I think until she's ready. Before bending them down I removed the biggest leafs located at they bottom of the plant, but only the one which would be tucked under the plant after bending and thus getting very low amount of light. On the next day they were looking up again so ne Problems here.

Great lamp setup! I do suggest taking out all white plastic from lamps, these just lose efficiency from lamp !

@Psilocubensis, thanks man, much appreciated. I took of the domes of the veg lamps, didn't have enough time to do it for the flower lamps jet. I think I won't do it all in one go because it's too much work lol. Also the the ones which are out the farest will keep it, since the plastic spreads the light better and this way I'll get more light in the center where the action is if you know what I mean haha

Die kleinen sind aber schon ganz schön groß geworden. Bist du zufrieden so weit?

@brains, danke. Gibt noch viel Optimierungsbedarf bei der neuen Growbox. War erst sehr enttäuscht vom Wachstum, aber der Strain ist einfach Mini habe ich dann verstanden. Bin wieder optimistisch und gespannt auf den Stretch und die Ernte!

I'm open to theories about why the plant in the far left corner is so much smaller. I kinda doubt it's because of ventilation because since a few weeks it has it's "own" vent almost directly pointed at it. I personally think it's a mix of phenotype and stagnant hot air in the first 3 weeks. I'll bend it over soon anyway. Maybe she will take a few days longer to harvest than her sisters but I still think lst bending will be beneficial.
