AlienFingerRSA Initial Setup: 2 X Plants transplanted into a 15L of water in each hydro bucket 1 X 4-outlet air pump with 2 air stones going into each bucket Nutrients: 3.5ml EHG Bloom 3.5 ml EHG Grow 3.5 ml EHG Micro pH: DP1 - 6.09pH DP2 - 6.19pH Size: DP1 - 36cm DP2 - 34cm Note: Both plants acclimatising to the transplant into hydro buckets. DP2 is currently wilting more.

AlienFingerRSA Week 1 Update (July 9 onward): The Afternoon Spike 🌱 First full week of real data since transplant, and overall - solid. 🌡️ Temp: Swinging more than I'd like - cool mornings, warm afternoons. Bigger jumps than a young plant loves. 💧 Humidity: 55-78%, averaging 69%. Right where a young plant wants it. No complaints here. 📊 VPD (aka "how thirsty the air is"): Weekly average was spot on for early veg. But every afternoon, for a short window (roughly 3-9pm), it spiked - right when temps peak and humidity drops fastest. And funnily enough, those spikes lined up with some leaf stress I noticed a few days back. So: not the main culprit (still chasing a nutrient/pH issue for that), but probably a sneaky sidekick making it worse. 🔧 The fix: Not a big one. Just telling my controller to kick the humidifier on earlier in the afternoon - get ahead of the dip instead of reacting after it's already dropped. Aircon-before-the-room-gets-hot logic. TL;DR: Environment's healthy, no red flags - just tightening one small screw before it becomes a bigger problem. 🔩
