Despite the mistakes with nutrients at the beginning, the plants are growing very good.
In the first week i didn't feed them properly, that's why the first true leaves are small, compared to the first leaves of the girls i grew in the other diary...
By the way, week 3 started!!
Nothing to add, feeding schedule and nutrients amounts are the same of the last week. Let's see tomorow, maybe i'll prepare AirPots for an imminent transplant
13/10 - The roots are growing out of the small pot. Today i transplanted them into the 9 liter AirPots, acutally it's not a "transplant" because i didn't remove the small coco-pot. By the way now they have more space, also increased amount of water per day. Tomorrow, week 4, i will change the feeding schedule, by increasing nutrients amount.
The mini fan is now on, giving them a gentle breeze on the leaves
@AsNoriu, niiice! I will try with 72 hours, but i will keep watering them during this night period, properly flushing the roots. I have a green headlight, which is perfect to do things inside the tent without "waking" the ladies :D Thanks again for your advice
@Ninja31, i read a lot about darkness shock. There is one really good article or research work about it from holland scientist. Short version of it. Plant needs at least 72 hours ( 3 days ) for results to be expressed in real trichoms increase.
In shorter time plant reacts, starts to defend himself, but for that to become reality plant needs time, 3 nights. Research showed aswell that there is no bigger increase up to 5 nights, but cuttoff minimum is 3.
Water them well before darkness, give 3-4 nights and enjoy frostiest weed ever ;)
@AsNoriu, Unfortunately i must plant this activity due to job issues :/
My aim is to dry them in the tent, because outside humidity is very high and i have to limit the smell.
That's why i can't harvest buds separately, even if this would be a great choice (i like the cluctch effect too ;)
By the way i will wait 'till the end before harvest... I also want to try 36 hours of darkness this time, i read that this increase potency :O

I stoped disturbing them in the night, first 5 or last 5 min of darkness wont change much, but gives you vission even with simple flash light.
Green light beeing reflected , but still is used in photosintesis. You can influence your cycle.
