09/26/24 Short facts:
- watered 2 x 0.2l
- VPD @ 0.6
- Light @ 30% - ~420ppfd (AC Infinity ION Frame EVO 3)

The plant is growing really well, no problems at all.
On Day 3, I decided it was time to plant some clover as a cover crop. I now spray the top of the soil with a little water in the morning and evening. As you can see, the clover is already growing, it looks nice and more lively. I also don't have her under the humitidy dome anymore.
This is my first grow inside my grow tent, so I’m happy to be able to control more environmental factors, especially the humidity and therefore the VPD (Vapor Pressure Deficit). I’m using the AC Infinity Cloudforge T3 (2nd Gen.). The VPD is currently set to 0.6. I programmed an offset of -2 degrees for the leaf temperature, which I measured. The actual difference is more like 2.6 degrees. (I use distilled water for the humidifier and added a few drops of tea tree oil to prevent the growth of bacteria or fungi, and it also repels insects. Plus, it smells quite good.)
I watered the plant twice this week, 0.2L each time, with Silica Force, CalMag, and Root-Juice added.
She is now 5 cm tall, and I’m totally happy with the growth. But she is the smallest of the three plants. I think she is more compact, because she is getting about 50ppfd more, than the other two plants, so she isn't stretching that much.
@yun23, That is sadly true.But, I do hope, that I have everything, that I need for right now 😀
The heating mats actually do help, I think the plants can deal better with cooler temperatures in the tent, because the cold isn't creeping in from below.
