Busy day, no time for gardening..
2/25:
I watered them today with about a half-gallon each including terpinator, signal, bembe, cal-mag, armor si, beastie bloomz, and a little bit of boomerang for the organic forms of nitrogen (kelp and earthworm castings).
2/26:
RH is holding at 40-45% during the day and 35-38% at night. Temps are about 78-80f during the day and about 62-65f at night. The smaller one is fattening up well now, but the tall one is just getting started..
2/27:
The garden has gotten so dense that the cool air at the bottom isn't circulating up to the canopy well enough. Temperatures on the floor are low 60'sf and about 80f at the canopy. That's not bad or anything, but over the next couple of weeks, I want to drive down the temperatures as much as possible. I'm achieving 30% RH now, two days after watering...pretty cool. I can't check the moisture level on the plants at the back of the garden without removing a bunch of others, but I'm assuming they aren't dry yet because of the airflow situation. I ordered a double 9" fan like you put in a window to circulate in or out fresh air. I'll put it under the bench that I'm using to elevate the two shortest plants at the back of the closet, facing the front of the closet and pointing slightly upwards. Hopefully this increases airflow across the pots, and moves more of the cool air up to the canopy.
2/28:
The new fan came in and was taller than I thought when situated in it's feet, so I just placed it atop my lighting frame facing down into the back of the garden. Each of it's two fans are mostly unobstructed, and the little bit that is obstructed is across two of the heatsinks, so that's fine with me. I'll have to find a diff fan for under the shortie platform.
2/29:
I fed everybody today with about a half-gallon each including a little grow big, big bloom, tiger bloom, beastie bloomz, terpinator, bembe, signal, cal-mag, and armor si.

Just ogled them today...they are really reeking now...👍
@Med_in_Tropic,
I also have occasional problems with that pest species, but I fear most that one of the Equus around here should get near them....game over in a hurry!😂
@Silverback_Guerilla, I’m in Bangkok Thailand.
My people are from China three or four generations ago. My body still think had not adapted to the heat and I sweat like a hog in this weather.
@Med_in_Tropic, So, you are in the Tropics?
My people are from Canary Islands and Senegal, and N.W. Spain before that....and Ireland on the other side, but that's 3 and 4 generations ago.
Wow man. For a minute I thought you missed a week between 4 & 5 because the difference was so drastic. I came over after a search because I have the same test strain going. Yours are looking excellent. Stop and check mine out. I had a setback and decided to let them veg out an extra week or two.
@grower_not_shower just came over to my PE journal and called the growth between weeks 5 and 6 “fishy” so
I thought I’d tag him here to see your week 5 to 6 growth and see how fish that is lol.
@grower_not_shower,
One word for you...HYDRO!
Growing hydro is always faster than soil.
And...sometimes, growers won't have time to update their diaries on the same day each week, so the updates and photos might be 8 or 9 days apart.
And..some strains grow more explosively than others...
And...some plants grow faster than other same-strain plants...
And..some growers are just better than others...
Don't be a hater!
@ThatoneAKguy, Dude, you're just proving my point. Your grow was more advanced at week 5 than this is at week 7. My plants are at about the same size at the same age as this grow.
