Fedito I've decided to do this TEX VS PLAST experiment since in every grow I went to, they always told me that TEX weren't suitable for indoors, without any solid explanation.
Here's the opportunity to debunk that.
15 lts TEX
11 lts PLAST
Mild fertilizer at half the recommended doses by the manufacturers.
Watering with reverse osmosis water.

Fedito One more week. 2nd to be exact. I couldn't take many photos, but I rescued this one from the phone of the dedoverde in TEX. The plant gained strength quickly. It's growing at a good pace and healthy.

Fedito This week the plants went through LST. The problem is that I pinched the apical of one of the plants. Next week I'll post the corresponding photos. The temperatures are getting colder... registering around 12 degrees.

Fedito Hey there! Let me tell you how the girls are doing.
Dedoverde #1 I topped her last week while doing LST, cutting 1/3 of the plant at the main stem. She didn't react until the third day when she started showing signs of growth. You can understand that this break wasn't a clean apical cut, so it took several days for recovery. Nowadays, she looks healthy, just a little smaller than her sister. Later on, I accidentally removed a bud from an apical.
Dedoverde #2 looks super healthy. The growth of the apical node has slowed down a bit post-LST, however, the rest of the branches are growing and fattening at an excellent pace.
Problems:
The temperature this past week has ranged from 17°C max to 12°C min. So far, the plants haven't suffered too much stress from this. For the next watering, I'll add B52 from AN to help with cold resistance before flowering starts.
Humidity shot up this week, reaching 99% the last two nights. The extractor can't keep up since the substrate stays wet for many days (I have to water every 5 days or so). The fan I ordered will arrive in the next few days. I need to lower the humidity before they start to flower.
See you next week!

Fedito PLAST (NO PHOTOS) 7L Has grown quite healthy. you can see it in the first week of flowering, we gave it its respective bloom.
TEX 15L It's going great. we cleaned the tent and the humidity is starting to slowly go away. we gave it B52 + Grow since it doesn't show any signs of flowering yet. for sure next week, the asymmetries will appear.

Fedito PLAST 7L is doing great. The photos don't do it justice, but entering its second week, it has some really impressive flowers. Recently, I added big bud and candy. It's taking off and drinks almost the same as its neighbor, the beast. Stretching to 55 cm.
TEX 15L has managed to overcome the humidity issues (so far)! It's worth noting that both TEX are watered once a week and were defoliated very recently. This one is only getting bloom with bud candy.

Fedito PLAST 7LT. It looks very healthy. Third week of flowering and we're doing well. As it grows, it's becoming a thirsty one. It can already be watered twice a week almost. It's caught up to the beast. It measures about 65 cm.
TEX 15L: this plant is already entering flowering. The tex keeps the substrate moist for almost the whole week, so in the middle of the week, when the substrate is around 75% dry, 500cc is applied to refresh the roots. It measures about 60 cm.
