Hello fellow Grower!
my 2 Plants got a "bad" start on the balcony, on top it was rough weather a lot of the time, so they have some catching up to do!
This Week the minimum Humidity was 40%, while the maximum being in 2 of this weeks night, at 85%, it was very high humidity outside, so no chance. The Average was about 60% though.
The Temps were minimum at 21/22 Grad Celsius, being at night, where it generally was a few Grad Celsius colder than during the day with the running light. During the Day temps averaged at around 27-28 Grad Celsius, while maxing out to about 30 Grad Celsius at times when it was hot weather outside already.
GC and now the PC are in 25L Pots (I know its big, i just thought f**k it at the time of buying) the LCC is in a 19L pot.
Yesterday (02.09.2024) a new Exhaust fan for the tent got installed. Cheap 100mm one from China, but want to give it a try. Before that, the Tent was running without an Exhaust Vent. Only the inside fan for circulation. With the Exhaust Vent there is a light negative pressure, which i have learnt is helping to provides fresh oxygen into the tent and therefore the plants.
I am still actively trying to observe the plants and how they are doing multiple times a day, just to gain experience on how to treat them and just get a feeling for this whole thing, like Watering- Today (03.09.2024) its like almost 2 days ago since i last watered them about 1L, but the soil is still moist enough so i will not water again yet. Now it should also be 6, or 7 days since i have the 20/4 Circle runnning. I feel like they are finally more settled with the new Enviroment, compared to the balcony from the beginning.
I had my first try on Low Stress Training on the Gorilla Cookies Auto, i think it turned out great! I should fill ob the pot more though, especially since her lower part of the Stem is not thicker yet.
I understood that LSTs main purpose is to retract the main growth signals from the main stem to the side branches, so i thought this should be sufficient to achieve that. What do you think?
The bright new leafs on the Lemon Cherry Cookies Auto worried me a bit and as a Noob i came to the conclusion that she might want more Nutrients in her Light Mix, so i put 3-4ml/L of Biobizz Grow into her Water now.please feel free to share your thoughts on it! Comments are very welcome! Also i read up again on the strain characteristics, it said on the fast buds page that she grows sturdy with small internodial space in between and i hope she will still turn badass!
The small Papaya Cookies Seed is fine in the "corner" i think. at least when roughly converting the measured lux over the seedling into a rough estimate of ppfd combined with the info on the Spiderfarmer PPFD mapping on their site. she germinated very fast in the water, i let her be and when i watched after about 16 hours she already had a bit of her root outside. then after one day in the soil she peeked out already. hope she will be fine even though its suboptimal that shes far behind now. I had a Gorilla Zkittlez from Fast Buds before but one of my cats killed her. so i chose Papaya Cookies as the replacement.
