Last week I used the wrong watering PH, I think twice. D'oh. Red/Black jug. Should be simple. I mixed up two watering containers. Just went through some orange looking spots and tip discoloration on some of the larger fan leaves. No big deal. She is back to taking up nutrients at 6.6X watering PH and is almost ready for harvest.
Fast grower, and is a trichome loaded green crack beauty. :) Wonder if using Wiggle Worm Castings at 60% contributed strength to her genetics. Genetics: Not having many tops, structure is spacey and lower colas have a lot of light and trichomes too.
She was a late bloomer. Oct 4, 2019 : Planted seed at 8:30 pm in 80% Canna Coco Coir, 20% perlite, with Gaia Green slow release nutrients
Oct 13, 2019: First day - sprouted early evening. Slow to sprout at 9 days later. Oct 18, 2019: Day 6 - transplanted into a 4 gallon wiggle worm medium. Week One of this journal explains wiggle worm amendments used.
@Solarcradle, thanks for the information and details. I plan on starting soon and didn't want to have issues because of the cooler temps in-house. Since we are using the same strand, I wanted to get your input. Good luck on your first winter grow!
@BossHogg6, I have three thermometers. One hangs above the plant canopies. The other two are in the pots, on top of the soil. I bought these thermometers when they were much cheaper. I really like them for their small size and easy to read display. https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07KFRWDT7/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
My house temp has currently been kept at 70F since the cold began. Because my tent is only 3 feet x 20 inches and 62 inches tall, it heats pretty well from my 1000w LED light. The actual power draw is 245w from the wall. On days where it is drafty weather outside, -15C and below, I imagine I'll need to close off vents. Will see. This is my first winter grow. So far, small tent equals easy to keep warm. I'm still running a small fan into my tent door, as cool air intake. It feels like -11C outside right now, and above my canopy is 25C+ and at the soil is 24.2C. Temperature is good with two vents open and a fan. You have me wondering what -30C will look like. :) Think I'll be okay. Keep in mind, the light is only about 12" from the canopy and for most pictures I have the vegetative lighting turned off.
I added some pics to show you what I saw on my thermometers. :)
