Week 4 Cannabis Growth Report
Date Range: November 10th - November 16th
Plant Age: 23-29 days (starting the 4th week)
Environmental Adjustments:
Humidity: Lowered to 60% to help balance moisture levels, especially after the recent flush, and to support the transition to the pre-flowering stage.
Light Height: Adjusted to maintain a distance of 45-60 cm (18-24 inches) above the canopy, targeting optimal light intensity without stressing the plants.
Nutrient and Watering Changes:
Flush: Performed a thorough flush to remove any potential nutrient buildup in the medium, aiming for a balanced root environment and optimal nutrient uptake.
Nutrient Strength: Reduced nutrient solution to 60% of full strength, with a target EC of 1.8 to accommodate the plants’ needs as they enter the later vegetative stage and prepare for flowering.
Watering: Allowed the medium to dry more efficiently after the flush by maintaining airflow and monitoring moisture levels.
Observations:
Plant Structure: Both plants are healthy, though one is slightly larger than the other, likely due to minor genetic variation. The leaves are vibrant green with slight drooping, which is expected post-flush and should resolve as the medium dries.
Growth Rate: The plants are progressing well with visible new growth, and adjustments in nutrient strength and environmental conditions are supporting steady development.
Next Steps:
Monitor EC Levels: Continue to check medium EC to prevent any new buildup.
Further Humidity Reduction: Prepare to lower humidity gradually as the plants approach the flowering stage in the coming weeks.
