Was not a compete week (only 4 days), but seedling stage was done, so repotted into final containers.
Complete seedling stage was 11 days after 3 days of germination.
LED running at 40%. Watering 3 times a day.
Day 5, fimmed the first 2 plants at node 5.
Day 6 fimmed 3 more plants at node 5.
Day 7 fimmed last plant at node 5.
Start of veg day 8, plants look healthy, growth as expected.
Day 11: Drain EC is down to 0.8, increased inflow to 1.3.
Day 12: Drain amount decreases, so will increase watering to 4 times a day. 1 plant as few signs of calcium deficiency, will do nothing about it, if it doesn’t worsen. LED now running at 60%.
Day 15: Added ScrOG net.
Day 17: Removed some leafs to have more light on the lower side shoots.
Day 18: Defoliation.
Day 21: Plants have a moderate phosphorus deficiency, but will switch to 12/12 next day and switch feeding to provide more phosphorus and also raise EC.
Switched to 12/12, will keep the plants with this fertilizer ratio until the first pistils appear. DLI is down to 25.
Day 23: Removed some leafs that blocked side shots and arranged them in the ScrOG net.
Day 24: Removed some more leafs and sub branches and changed some arrangements to get all tops to the same height. Nearly all spaces filled by now.
Day 28: First pistils visible on some plants, will switch fertilizers on day 30. Most of the tops on the same height now, expecting the main stretch in the next ~2 weeks, when this is done I will do some defoliation / lollipoping removing nearly everything below the ScrOG net.
All plants have their first pistils. First day of this week still the old fertilizer. Then switching to the mix of this week, no EC increase, pH range now 5.7 to 6.3, will keep this for the next 15 days. DLI now at 29, will let the plants stretch to the LED to naturally increase the DLI, keeping LED dimmed to 60% for now.

Last day of the week, was constantly removing some interfering leaves and side branches that would not grow big buds. All plants are healthy, no big changes for next week, just a slight EC increase. DLI now at ~30 (moved the lamp up 2 times during the week).
Plants looking good, stretching 2-3 cm a day now. As mentioned last week, did increase the EC slightly, same ratio, keeping this for the next ~8 days, until stretch slows done and buds start to grow in size. DLI now at 31 will raise it to ~35 in the next 8 days.
Last day of this week, removed all leafs below the ScrOG net, set LED to 80% and DLI to 42. Changed fertilization frequency to 5 times per day.
Stretch is slowing down as expected, LED now at 80% power. The first 2 days of this week will still use the fertilizers from last week, then I will change to the one from this week, same pH range and EC. The two Skywalker Haze are a few days behind when it comes to flowers. Plants look good, one Tropical Tangie has a bit bigger internodes, with some larger side branches then the others, if this will make issues later I eill do some super cropping and bend them down later.
By the end of the week I decreased EC to 1.3 because leaf tips start to burn, and did some lollipopping. DLI now at ~41 and stretch nearly stopped.
Nothing new this week, plants look good. It’s raining a lot right now, so humidity is sometimes a bit higher especially when lights are off (peak was 64%). If it doesn’t get better I will add a the dehumidifier this week, just to be cautious.
Day 3: Added the dehumidifier, humidity much better during light off time now.
First 3 days of this week will use the same fertilizers as last week. Then I will switch for about 2 weeks the the schedule from this week. Plants looking good, will do some lollipoping the next days to remove some buds that won’t get big.
