Lady #3 diary

Day 15 - 30/5 #3 Keeps going up very well. Biggest difference I find is that by this time, her older sister was shorter. The first set of leaves almost touches the soil (which does now after LST) and this one is significantly far from the ground. The difference is direct seeding here vs transplanting on #1. I decided to make a new batch of water (4 liters), enough until the end of this week. Now added also Root Juice by half to make sure the roots are getting what they need. This warm days here where I'm living also brought me a new problem: Humidity here is down to 20's%, so the air going inside the grow is warmer and drier. Even with the humidifier on, full power 24/7 and won't get it over 34% with lights on. Lights off can keep up under 60% Day 16 - 31/5 #3 - Another day, another little stretch. Reacting well to feeding, loves the environment and the light. Nothing new to add. The grow keeps the same, dry during the day time, nice in the off time. RH is 35% on, 55% off. Temps from 28 on to 18 off. Time for light period is now changed. 23h to 18h. Let's see what this brings, but I'm hoping to find a nice balance here inside the grow, even though they look super healthy and nothing wrong is going on. Day 17 - 31/5 #3 - Keeps growing up. At this rhythm she'll be topped in 4/5 days. Today after feeding her with nuts, watered with plain water - PH'ed off course - as I'm not so happy with her color and believe it can be a little too much of nuts for her in such an early stage - Remember, I'm using the same mix to both plant #3 and her older plant #1 that you can see below the link. For now. It got hot in the grow today, can't really get distracted with the temps, or having enough water in the humidifier. As I'm still home, could spot that at early stage, otherwise could have been a bigger problem. Fans were adjusted, to circulate better the air around the plants and lower in the bottom of the grow. With this said, temps were today: 32 on and 22 off. RH was 28% on and 50% off. Remember, this are peak temps, not the constant, that is around the 28.8c same with RH that stands usually over 35%. Day 18 - 2/6 #3 - Not sure what's happening here, but It seems like something's about to happen. She grows nice on a daily basis, but the leaves are starting to curl up. That indicates only 3 things - Heat/light stress, over/under watering and humidity. So, I'll move the lights slightly up, maybe 5cm just to see what happens. Plant wasn't fed for 24h+ now, even though it's been misted almost in a hourly period. Soil looks dry so I believe it's mostly related with the heat stress, bearing in mind that for an hour or two the grow exceeded the 30 degrees. Humidity is ok, a bit on the dry side with a 34% on and 50% off. Temps oscillated between 32 on and 20 off. Day 19 - 3/6 #3 -Today was topping day. As the plant looked recovered from the heat stress, I decided to go forward in this early stage, so there's time to develop for a good LST. Tomorrow I'll see how it reacted but fed her now before lights goes on with the nut mix. Almost a liter this time, together with a generous mist of the plants and also, after moving up the lights last night, just did it again. The temps, the RH and the plants seems to be closer to the optimal levels and that makes me very happy after struggling a couple days with high temps and low RH in the grow. Temps between 28c and 20.4c and RH from 34% to 54%. Day 20 - 4/6 #3 - To my surprise, the plant reacted well to the topping, even though recovering from a little heat stress the 48h before cutting her. Soon I'll be training this plant, just need to figure out how she's going to develop. As I'm using different techniques of the same strain in the same grow, will be fun to watch the differences between this one and the one I have on my other diary. Tried to make a clone out of the topping cut. Put that cut in water and will see what happens. The heavy watering last night and a heavy misting before turning the lights on, together with moving them even upper, brought me lower temps and higher RH. The temps were between 24c and 20c, and RH from 40% to 50% So, apparently my struggle was because I was just getting the light way too close to the plants, especially in a very early stage. Day 21 - 5/6 #3 - It's the end of week 3 for this little one. She's grown a lot during this week, got a little heat stress and was topped. Let's try and make week 4 a better one for this little one, and get her started with some LST, just waiting for new new tops to form to get her going. Today, no feeding nor misting. She looks fine so she'll fast for at least 36h In the tent, today was the best 'weather' ever, I'm super happy with that 😅 Temps were between 18 off and 25 on, RH between 73% off and 40% on. 😀 So, that's it for the week, thank you all for coming by, and see you all tomorrow, beginning week #4! Have a great evening everyone👊
