these were not autoflowers. i feel like they arent great to have indoors/under LED (the sativa dominant genetics seem to promote foxtailing which has been a big thing in this grow).
- i think the nutrient line defnietely improved the overall yield but i also overdid it at times ; a risk when using this many different nutes.
- there should be more information on EC/PPM in different stages on the advanced nutrients line
- i like the app theyve developed but i feel ripped off to have to pay for it after having bought 200 euro's of nutrients.

be careful with the green sensation!! combining it with overdrive (double PK booster) had an adverse effect on plant number two; she devloped a huge calcium deficiency that was (i think) caused by a complete overdose on PK in the medium.
overall i've learned a lot fro mthis grow. Had fungus gnats, a little mold on #2 (discovered during harvest) and also experienced what its like to grow in pure peatmoss.
amended to little at times, amended too much at other times. three completely different grows.
Plant #1 was by far the best one. Most resin production and overall most stable in terms of nutrient uptake and deficiencies.
overall i will probably not grow a lot of sativa's inside this fridge anymore. its just not good to have them all foxtail and stress out over small things. Time for more indica's! ๐
some of the bottom leaves (all 3 plants affected) are slightly curling up towards the end. she looks pretty healthy to me, so i'm wondering if anyone here recognises this and knows what might cause such symptoms?
@levensfiets hi there my friend I'm thinking that this is a classic case of overwatering you need to allow the medium your growing in time to dry a little between
waterings this is to let your roots breathe .
(for more background, see Week 9 in diary)
Am i correct for assuming that when growing in peat moss (supplemented with perlite) i would need a hydroponic fertilizer because this is a soilless medium? thanks ! :)
Look into Coco nutes! I used ProMix during my first grow and I had to get the PH Perfect line from Advanced Nutrients ๐
Had to keep up with plenty of feedings once I dialed in the right levels. I backed off to a 70/30 Soil to ProMix combo for my second grow so I didn't have to keep up with as many feedings.
Best of luck! ๐
Trichomes on #2 are underdeveloped. Do you guys reckon it would help buying a UVB lamp (10 rating) 26 watt and adding those to both growrooms to compensate for the LED's lack of UV lighting? Maybe some Molasses in the feeding (never used it before) ?
@levensfiets I'm not too savvy on the uv lights but I can definately reccomend the use of mollasses in your feeds as it does wonders for the soil microbes
Remember happy soil= happy roots then that = happy Fruits I use a tablespoon per 10L watering can otherwise you could go with just a couple of teaspoons to start with
Congrats ! Im just getting into growing i was wondering how the LUMERI PNLVB1200 LED light performs. I was interested in buying it as my first lamp. Do you reccomend it ? .. I cant find anything regarding that lamp. Thanks in advance.
Good luck for your culture my friend ๐ i replied to your grow question if the answer suits you you can validate it ๐ if you need advice do not hesitate
May the strength be with you ๐ช

@elusion84, i think i like it, although i have nothing to compare it with yet. also a big downside to this light is that there are no available specs in terms of ppfd and things like that ('ve been in touch with the reseller and they are unable to give me any info)
however; if i'd have to buy a new one in the same pricerange based on my current knowledge i'd buy and optic 1XL or an optic2 i guess.
