So these two girls will be located in the back of my 4 pot rdwc system I decided to go straight from the rockwool cubes into the system without stopping off in the nursery I'm hoping this doesn't affect the root growth by the end of this week I am starting to notice having a hard time with the humidity in the heat under the domes
Now that I'm into the second week I can really start to see my humidity problems with smaller plant size one of them is really starting to burn and get stunted the other seems to be doing well
Started doing LST on the one that is looking a lot better A as far as B goes I'm just going to keep growing it but I don't have much hopes I think I might try mainlining it you bring it back
I can't believe how fast a is doing
B it's still quite stunted I went ahead and started the mainlining process on it I'm hoping this was a good choice any advice is appreciated
Add scrog
For A I'm planning on starting some defoliation for the first time on her as far as B goes I'm planning on letting him grow a little longer and then cut the heads off both sides to have 4 branch
did a water change on day 33
Don't have so much to say this week I really think I stunted B but is starting to grow quite a bit now but you can tell the nutrients are burning her he is just going crazy I haven't done any defoliation all I've done is remove the nodes that would be pointing down in for training I'm just pushing on the branches every other day and it seems to be doing really well with just that
Day 43 my humidity has been going up to 85% with light out and a constant 60% I'm going to have to invest in a dehumidifier I believe.
Day 44 did a complete change of the nutrient and water inside of the dwc it's also the first time that I remove the plants from the system and gave it a complete clean I'm going to go into flower in 2 weeks on the next reservoir change I brought the PPM up to 1050 I see a lot of other growers on here with ppm's in this level I'm hoping my plants react well to it also trying to keep the PM to 6 and I use a par metre on my phone now with 740 watts of quantum in the tent my plants are getting 600 ppm across the full canopy at 18 my plants don't seem to be burning so I'm going to bring it back to the 16 in tomorrow
Day 45 decided to put the lights at 14 in going to see how they do with that right now they're sitting in around 750 par 🙂
Day 46 the plants have used 200 PPM in 2 Days
Day 47 no changes to note here ppm are being keep at 850 now
Day 48 I'm going to switch to flower in 3 days ! Put ppm up to 1150
Day 50 I did major defoliation on the girls the nutrients have been mixed up for the transition. This week into flower PPM at 1150 par on the girls is 800-900 with my phone app the water temp has been vary good at 65F the girls can drink close to 200 PPM a day and all I really replenish is the Cal mag until the week is finished I also have some overflow of the nutrients inside the system I remove 5 gallons and add back a gallon or so a day along with the fresh water
Day 51 well.... The girls used 20L and 200 PPM in 24H! Ppm at 950 now lights at 15in now
Day 52 added the leftover water from the fresh nutrient change and a little Cal mag at 1000ppm now
Day 53 after looking at many grows I've decided it's a must to defoliate the undergrowth on A or I will regret it managed to get it out of the pot with a little difficulty 20 cuttings from underneath the plant opened it up a bit more hoping this helps when I start flowering in next couple of days
Day 54 did a lot more defoliation on A today ppm at 750 now
Day 55 not much to note ppm's at 660
Day 56 last day of veg going to 12/12 tomorrow 🙂👍⏳⏳⏳
Day 1This is the first day of flower a lot of work has gone into this with LST and defoliation I'm hoping to get some beautiful buds out of this grown with lots of love ppm at 500 going to change in 2 or
Day 2 Ppm at 450 now time to change out tomorrow
Day 3 have a five gallon bucket at 1500 PPM to add back during this week is the reservoir gets low. ppm's are at 1150 with a fresh change of all the water we'll see how she's doing tomorrow
Day 4 had a major disaster last night went in to check everything and have an inch of water inside of the tentnot too much water drain from the pots that the roots got dry but it did sprung a leak when I change the water out I filled the buckets too high so my sealed job broke had to think on my feet put the 4 plants into DiY dwc buckets I built with their bubble inside no way of maintaining the temperature in there going to have to get some kind of a new epoxy and hopefully have the system up and running tomorrow.
Day 5 all is well with the grow again completely cleaned out the system and all the buckets put the new epoxy on there and everything is leak free did another exchange what the plants back to their original pots with a slight adjustment to the placement I hope the stress of moving the girls is not going to affect my yields too much it is only day five of flower hopefully everything's smooth sailing from here on out
P.s had to add the 5-gallon of 1500 PPM nute solution to the reservoir to get everything at the proper level along with some extra Cal mag and a small amount of the other nutes the PPM in the system is now at 740
Day 6 happy to say not much to report lol everything looks good 🙂
Day 7 week done
I've been quite busy have been updating the grow as much as I wish I could on day 10 I got a lot of defoliation on the plants now at day 14 still look like could use a lot more but I'm just going to leave them for now buds starting to develop and I don't want to stress them out I also just purchased a bud booster today I'm going to do a full water exchange tomorrow I've been adding in nutrients every couple of days instead of waiting the full week I'm going to bring the PPM up to 900-1000
range
Day 15 I didn't do much raised up the lights a little bit and added water as usual
Day 16 ppm 1000, ph6.2, temp80, water temp 66 ,62%hum
Day 17 I hit a plant with a lot more defoliation none of the undergrowth is getting any light and it's starting to really raise the humidity I know it can stress out the girls but I'm hoping this is the best auction I can't afford a dehumidifier at this time and I need to start getting this humidty down in high 70s it's been a lot more dry and hot days lately but it's never going below 60 yet
Day 18 moved all the drivers outside of the tent also had to move the fan to the floor the one with the carbon filter the lights were getting too close to the ceiling and I'm going to have to keep raising hoping this also brings my humidity down a bit
Day 19 nothing to report but Buds starting to feel in
Day 20 all going well the smell seems to be going down with the fan on the floor but the heat has also gone up solve the problem I didn't have made my problem worse but at least I can get my lights higher now lol probably going to hook up the AC in there tomorrow
Was fighting mold and high humidity There was too much plant matter in such a small Space but I ended up getting A lot anyway My next grill will go much better with what I know now
