# Day 2
The soil was completely dry. I watered the plant this day with about 0.3 liters.
The 150W LED lamp at the height of 105cm seems to produce about 300 ppfd.
Conditions in the tent: Humidity about 70%, air temperature between 21°C and 26 °C.
I still have wet towels in the tent to increase humidity.
# Day 3
The soil is still a little bit wet (specially 2cm below the surface), so i did not water the plant. I only sprayed a little bit of water on the surface of the dry soil.
Conditions in the tent: Humidity about 70%, air temperature between 20°C and 24 °C.
# Day 4
The soil was pretty dry in the upper 5 cm, so i watered again, about 0.3 liters.
Conditions in the tent: Humidity about 68%, air temperature between 20°C and 24 °C.
# Day 5
The soil is still wet, so i did not water the plant.
Conditions in the tent: Humidity about 68%, air temperature between 20°C and 24 °C.
# Day 6
The soil is still moist below the surface, so i did not water the plant. I only sprayed a little bit of water on the surface of the dry soil.
Conditions in the tent: Humidity about 68%, air temperature between 20°C and 24 °C.
# Day 7
The soil was pretty dry, so i watered again, about 0.3 liters mixed with 1 ml BioBizz Root-Juice.
Conditions in the tent: Humidity about 68%, air temperature between 20°C and 24 °C.
# Day 8
The soil is still wet, so i did not water the plant.
Conditions in the tent: Humidity about 68%, air temperature between 21°C and 25 °C.
1. Does it make sense to cover the seedling with a cover (bottom of a plastic bottle) to increase humidity or should i remove it (e.g. for better air circulation)?
2. Should i switch on a fan that moves the air a little bit (pointing it above the plant)?
Unless you are in a very arid region, you shouldn't need a dome for a seedling. 20-30% rh might be wise to put a dome on and cut soem holes in it until it is an appropriate RH% for your temperature - vpd chart is a visual aid for this. You want a slightly slower rate of transpiration (i.e. lower vpd than for mature vege or flower) early on, but too slow and you impede growth. I've read different suggestions but .8-.9 is probably fine. I'm usually above that, and the impact must be tiny.
Circulation fan only needs to cause a little jostling of the plant. Definitely don't point it directly at it. A little twitch of a leaf here or there is fine.
1. When should i stop feeding nutrients and only use water?
2. The tips of the leafes on the top are brown, the tips that are slightly lower are yellow.Too much light?
I'm currently on day 47 since i planted the seed, according to the breeder it takes 56-63 days until harvest.
Some people go up untill harvest. but most people stop around 2 weeks before they think they will harvest. can be a little hard to pinpoint. THe buds on her look like there are still building up a bt so i would go another week of feed. I don't ee anythings efficient or excess, so i would keep on with what you are doing. they are looking nice. They will also likely take slightly longer than what the pack says to finish.
When should i harvest?
I see some amber trichomes on the top bud. On the lower buds i do not really see amber trichomes, they are mostly cloudy. I'm currently on day 71 since i planted the seed, according to the breeder it takes 56-63 days until harvest.
High krogor,
2 more weeks before she is ready for harvest buddy!
Most trichomes are still clear, and a few are milky white. When about 80% of the trichomes are milky white, 10% clear and 10% amber is the perfect time for harvest. Around this time 80-90% from the hairs (pistils) will be brown.
Looking really nice buddy!
Happy Harvest! 💚
@Herikus, Thank you. Also thanks for your suggestion, but unfortunately the light is not dimmable, so it is always 150W. The only upside is that the tent is warmer when the light is on.
@Snaqq, :) Thank you. The thermal cam was there before the grow, but i thought it would be interesting to take a picture with it... It seems that the rule of thumb for air vs leaf temperature is correct for my setup (about 2 °C difference)
Nice little lady you have! I'm sure she will grow beautifully!
Maybe lower the light a bit and decrease the intensity? It's more cost-intensive to have the lights running on a high level all the time. But if it works out for you I'm very happy!
I'm new to growing too, so what do I know?!
Excited for more pictures and happy growing 🌱
