Melon Mosh Smart Grow

Enochian Still tweaking the enviroment to maintain around 1.1 vpd. Got a no name brand humidifier to help deal with the temps here. Had no rain for weeks and wildfires its been so hot. Ladies are doin great though. New lights and fans with controller mean I can manipulate conditions in tent without having to open door. Started with half strength nutes as they are being pushed a bit hard. 2 hours extra daylight than I have tried before. All seems good after re potting. Good week.

Enochian Both ladies have been topped and have spent the last week enjoying temps of 26c and a humidity of around 67% with VPD around 1 to 1.1. They seem to thrive in this enviroment and have gone from strength to strength. It has been tempting to push them harder but I wanted to try a 'by the book' grow and keep variables within the parameters for each stage of growth. Lights at 50% etc. Much easier to control enviroment with smart equipment. All in all a good week. I have recently found that Biobizz recommend NOT to PH balance after adding nutes! I have always PH balanced my feeds before watering with no ill effects. I will continue to balance feeds for the remainder of this grow cycle but as I have 2x Melon Mosh seeds in storage I will replicate this grow with same variables but will follow manufacturers recommendations and allow the substrate to balance itself for comparison.

Enochian The girls are coming on nicely now. Just starting pre flower this week. Had to relocate tent due to space requirements and stealth. Tent is now squirreled away in a pantry slighty bigger than the tent. Added new fan and dehumidifier to the mix. Taking plenty of water and feed. No signs of stress or uptake problems so far and all is going swimmingly. Getting ready for flowering. Lights up to 68%, scrog net at the ready. UPDATE Closed loop dehumidifier system been running all night, without short cycling. (Lights on 18.00 to 14.00). Took a little tweaking here and there but canopy enjoyed a VPD of 1.1 to 1.2 consistently. I am approaching lights off now, we will see if the closed loop will handle lights off humidity peak. So far I am impressed with this system.
