***UPDATE 01/13/25***
Plants are gonna need water early tomorrow morning
RH is good but temps have been a bit high throughout the day so far, should come back down in an hour or so!
***UPDATE 01/14/25***
Gave each plant 1L of dechlorinated tap water at a PH of 6.1
Switched nozzle on my garden sprayer & it now sprays a heavy mist vs a more pressurized direct stream!
Little bit of color coming through on some of the dying foliage, hopefully what sticks & stays will change too :P
***UPDATE 01/15/25***
Plants responded well to yesterdays watering!
Went through & removed all dying leaves that would just pull off without a struggle
Noticed dying foliage is bleaching as it dies but tops & healthy foliage remain in tact, should be ok to leave the light where it's at & continue on with 870 uMOL!
RH was good today but temps are a little bit higher, will see what I can do to bring them down a couple of degrees!
***UPDATE 01/16/25***
Took some bud shots & a bit of crystal has started coming in!
Not expecting all too much out of these plants, ran into issues with nutrients during flower + overwatering early on in the grow, 1L seems to work best as well as nutrient mixture listed above, will be sticking to that when it's time for that next run!
***UPDATE 01/17/25***
Gave each plant 1L of dechlorinated tap water mixed with nutrients listed above at a PH of 6.3
Backed the light off a little bit shortly after taking pictures today because they did bleach quite a bit over the past couple of days, the tallest plant is recieving roughly 750 uMOL of light & is now within that 50 - 55 DLI range
Had some issues uploading over the past couple of days! Would get an error message anytime I tried to post! Ended up redoing the entire week & didn't select any grow technique options, this seems to have fixed the problem!
Temps & RH have been pretty good so far today! RH is reading higher than it actually is because hygrometer is sitting in the pot of a freshly watered plant
***UPDATE 01/18/25***
Plants responded well to yesterdays feed!
Went through & removed some more leaves that would just pull off without a struggle
Despite the Strawberry Dawg Pie having the most problems throughout the grow it is actually the one with the most color/crystal thus far & is the one that's supposed to finish last!
Buds are kind of small in comparison to the other two plants, was labeled as 75-85 days from seed where as the Purple Punch is 63 days & the Gorilla Glue #4 is 70 days!
Heard a lot of good things about Butterbean Birdseed! I will probably run the Strawberry Dawg Pie again alongside some of their other genetics in a future grow!
Curious how they will stack up against the box set I just ordered from Crossbone Genetics for the next run once issues are minimalized & everything is dialed in!
I have a pretty good feel for the new setup at this point & found what seems to work best water/nutrient wise as well!
1st time giving autos an actual go, plant wise is maybe not a good idea to mainline & keep 20 - 24 ish tops per plant as the buds are quite small!
Thinking I will try one more time & see if other factors are responsible for this, 16 might be the sweet spot in regards to what I'm after!
Temps & RH have been pretty good today! Strategically placed the external AC to bring temps down a bit & everything is looking good so far!
Might grab one of those Spider Farmer humidifiers with the hose at some point so I can fit 4 plants inside the 2x4 vs 3 :P
***UPDATE 01/19/25***
Not much needed to be done today
Removed some more leaves that would just pull off without a struggle
A fair bit of color really starting to come through on the Strawberry Dawg Pie which is good!
