10/9 I have one plant that stunted early and is looking pretty rough. Another looks a little off. I have been extremely careful with watering so I don't think it's that. Humidity has been around 45% during the day but dropping to 35% with lights out. Tried the towel trick, spraying the inside of the tent and put some shallow pans of water in the tent but nothing has changed the humidity level. I just ordered another timer so I can shut my scrubber down during lights out and I'm going to turn the fan speed down. Hopefully that will help a bit. Installed another 6" oscillating rail clip fan so now I have two going. Also, lowered my light and am about 28" from my plants now. Had it way too high up.
10/14 12 days from sprout. Been misting them a few times a day. They seem to be doing well with the humidity.
10/15 Watered.
Using a 48x48x80 tent in my basement. Humidity is reading 30%. Have tried all the tricks to raise it and it does temporary then lowers quickly. Reading so much conflicting info. Would a humidifier work in my tent? If so, please point me towards one to purchase. Thanks!
I generally have the opposite problem. But any good small room humidifier should work in your sized tent. My tent is only 2x2 foot. A small aromatherapy atomiser works for me even. The plants especially rely on humidity for some of their moisture in the first few weeks as roots develop. 30% might impact early development. I suspect it is going to matter less as the plants mature from now on. Might even make it easier to control mould and other pests. Maybe put a clear cover over the seedlings next time. A plastic container with a few holes can increase humidity easily. I definitely recommend foliar feeding early on as well. ILGM have an easy grow schedule for their WW with indicative temps humidity and TDS.
10/25 23 days from sprout. All are looking great. Going to wait another week before I start feeding.
10/26 Watered. Probably going to trim some fan leaves before the next watering.
10/27 Few are starting to flower. Switched from MH bulb to HPS.
10/29 Watered. Going to start Fox Farms food at a quarter strength next watering.
10/31 Trimmed some leaves that had been scorched from water laying on them under the HPS. They were bone dry so I watered about 100ozs each which is about double what I have been giving them. I'll start feeding next watering.
11/3 Watered and fed with Tiger Bloom and Big Bloom at a quarter strength.
11/4 Received a pH meter and checked my well water. I'm at 7.5 so I ordered pH down.
11/6 Fed and watered. Each took a full gallon.
11/8 They are really drinking up the water. They were dry already so I watered each with a full gallon.
11/10 Watered each with a full gallon
11/13 Watered and fed each with a gallon.
11/16 Trimmed all plants. Some more than others. Just experimenting. Two are growing fat buds, two are a little behind and one still hasn't even begun flowering. She just keeps getting bushier and spitting out another set of leaves when I think I see pistils.
11/17 Fed and watered. Changed to 12/12 to see if I can trigger the last lady. Gonna give her a couple days.
11/20 Fed and watered and gave them Cal mag. Late bloomer still isn't flowering.
11/27 Plants were showing signs of a calcium deficiency so I fed with Cal mag. Seems to have stopped the spreading. Did some trimming this morning. Went a little hard on one of their haircuts but we will see what happens. Late bloomer still isn't flowering. I've isolated her in darkness for 48 hrs, 12/12, and fed her flowering food and she still looks like she could flower any day. She's gonna be huge if she ever does flower.
12/3 They have been showing signs of deficiencies and I would feed and it would seem to take care of it and then it would come back with a vengeance. Finally figured it out. I've been using water from the softener heavy in salt. I think the roots were bound with salt and blocking nutrients from being used. I flushed each with 15 gallons of water from the outside spigot. Hopefully this will take care of it. Other than that, they are looking good. I did chop the non bloomer also. Planning to chop two of them 17 Dec. The tall girl and one other are still a ways off from being ready.
12/9 - First two were harvested. They have been trimmed and the buds are in the myherbsnow dryer. I totally forgot to get the wet weight from these ladies.
12/10 - I found the tall girl laying into the corner of the tent. The weight of her flowers tipped her over. Had to stake her up. Her and the other final one still need some time to mature. They are looking like they need another couple weeks before they are ready.
12/12 Buds from the first two have dried. 165g of flower.
I had deficiencies all thru the run and then figured it out towards the end that my water was causing the roots to build up salt making it impossible for the nutrients to get to them. Once I figured that out, it was pretty smooth. I definitely underwatered in the beginning as well. This strain is extremely strong to have provided this yield despite all my errors.
