Veg Week 3 (28 days old)
Don't know if the camera picked up the discolourations better this time, but the new foliage isn't affected by any abnormal yellow areas. Nor has any of the elder foliage shown an increase in yellowing. That's a win in my book! Fed her one more half-dose of CalMag and Bio-Grow before increasing to the full recommended dose. We'll see how she takes that in next week's update.
The lighting is still hung at 50cm from the canopy, at 40%. I think this could be reduced or the light hung higher though. She is growing bushier than her sisters (r.i.p.) and not much hight wise since last week. Instead of listening to this impulse, I'll leave the lights as they are one more week and see how she's developed.
The fabric pots are very effective as well. Number 4 needs watering just as often as I am used to but the soil in these pots dries out in its entirety, not just from the top down as I am used to with plastic pots. Also, the drip trays have proven their worth multiple times. I didn't expect the water to seep through the pot as quickly as it does. Had to adjust the watering technique after that..
Get back to you in next week's update.
