Week 4 started
****(R) is the plant on the right, (L) is the one on the left!!****
15/10 - I'm feeding them with 2ml per liter, as suggested by Advanced Nutrients.
I know that this amount is too much, EC is also high, but i want to see how they react to this. Hope to not overfeed them
16/10 - Topped both plants - Now i'm giving the plants 0.5 l/plant per day, run-off water is about 20% of the water gave to them
Tomorrow i will measure the EC
20/10 - All plants doesn't show over-feeding sings. The EC of the solution is close to 700ppm and Ph is 6
In the images the temperature oif the water is high (26°C), before feeding the plants i waited fot the temperature to drop at 21°
End of the week 4, plants are healthy - It seems to me they're growing slowly, the fourth plant (top right one) is the last i planted and she's growing very fast. Probably the mistakes i made in the first week of Silver Haze are slowing down the growth....
@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.
