Week 10 - Second Week of Flowering πΈ
As week two of flowering begins, the gardenβs growth is unstoppable! These ladies are thriving, stretching up while staying beautifully vibrant and green. Every inch of this tent is optimizedβeach plant is soaking up light, nutrients, and water precisely as they need, filling the room with energy.
Room Conditions π‘οΈ
β’ Temperature: 27.3Β°C
β’ Humidity: 62.6%
β’ COβ Levels: 800 ppm
β’ VPD: 1.36 kPa (excellent range for robust flowering)
β’ Lighting Intensity: 818 PPFD
Solution & Medium π§
β’ Solution Temp: 21.5Β°C | TDS: 470 ppm | pH: 6.02
β’ Medium: Moisture 100% (recently dried to 67%), TDS 510 ppm, Temp 22.5Β°C
The βdry-outβ to 67% was a strategic move, helping boost nutrient uptake and root strength. Meanwhile, our slight increase in reds seems to be having the desired effect, nudging these ladies further along in the flowering process.
Eye Safety & LED Lighting ππΆοΈ
With powerful LED systems like the ThinkGrow and ICL-300, eye protection is critical. LED grow lights emit high-intensity light across the full spectrum, including intense UV and infrared components that are not easily detected by the human eye. Long-term exposure without adequate protection can lead to eye strain, and in extreme cases, damage to vision.
β’ Blue Light Hazard: LEDs often have elevated levels of blue light, which can harm the retina over time if proper precautions arenβt taken.
β’ UV Protection: Even low doses of UV can accumulate and harm eyes, so grow glasses with UV protection are essential for any indoor gardener.
Investing in quality grow room glasses can help protect from glare, UV, and infrared rays, making plant care safer and more comfortable.
Lighting Enhancements: ICL-300 In-Depth π
The ICL-300 is our newest addition, specifically designed for inner canopy illumination. This LED offers a targeted light boost under the canopy, enhancing flower growth in lower and shaded areasβideal for maximizing yield and light efficiency.
β’ Dual Spectrum Technology: The ICL-300 provides a custom spectrum designed to penetrate deeper into the plant canopy, promoting robust bud formation throughout.
β’ Enhanced Light Distribution: With strategically positioned diodes, the ICL-300 reduces shadowing and balances light distribution to all parts of the plant.
β’ Energy Efficiency & Heat Management: This light is designed to be energy-efficient, running cooler and reducing the risk of heat stress within the grow space.
The inner canopy light gives the plants exactly what they need, particularly during the flower stage when bud sites deep in the canopy can benefit from more direct exposure. However, after noticing slight leaf burn on some plants, Iβll hold off a bit longer before fully integrating this light to ensure optimal adjustment.
Looking Forward π
As we continue dialing in conditions, itβs all about balance, precision, and taking proactive steps to optimize every aspect of the grow environment. Weβll keep a close watch on the canopy height, and next week, Iβll aim to fine-tune the light integration even further with the ICL-300.
P.S. - ICL-300 and COβ Sensor π±
The TrolMaster COβ Sensor (MBS-S8) has been crucial for real-time COβ adjustments, ensuring the plants get exactly what they need without constant monitoring. Combined with the ICL-300βs spectrum flexibility, these tools make an unbeatable setup, allowing for nuanced control over plant growth and development.
As always, a huge thanks to the Grow Fam for the tips, support, and enthusiasm! Iβm excited to see what these next weeks will bring as these plants reach their full flowering potential. Stay tuned for more updates, and donβt forget: eye safety first, growers! ππΏ

Great man! Can wait to see result off FR light as stretching occurs in next weeks. 15minutes per cycle is safe spot. Also, speed haw fast they will go in to flowering, after FR inproduction.
@WhiteEdge, Thanks buddy πππ man so far i am super impressed with it all, by far the best ecosystem i have ever put my hands on πππ still so much to improve but i do see a giant difference on how they are growing and evolving, i believe the Pro MixSoil is also helping the cause here as they are the 2 main changes i did. Growers Love my friend , thank you for stopping by for the love and for it all πππ
