Day 14 to Day 16
The plants are growing nicely now, the fresh growth is very nice lush lime green. I watered with EC 1.0 on day 14 (0.75ml/l Gro, 0.5ml/l Micro, 0.25ml/l Bloom, and 5ml/l Root Stimulator, pH 6.1). I sprayed them again with Epsom salts solution on day 15.
They have started to grow quickly and I have noticed the increase in transpiration causing the humidity to rise. I have been adjusting the humidifier down to compensate and keep things in the ideal zone. It has typically been around 50-60% humidity, but it has been as high as 75% in the past few days, and a minimum of 35% was recorded at one hot dry point. The temperature is normally 26°C with the lights on, and reached a maximum of 29°C and minimum of 22°C with lights off.
One interesting thing I noticed about the Ice Cool Auto, which I have not seen a plant do before, is that the second set of true leaves has five fingers. I think every other plant I've grown from seed has followed the same pattern - one finger on the first pair of leaves, three on the second pair, five on the third pair. This plant seems to have skipped a stage.
The plants are starting to produce side shoots, so it won't be long now before the tent fills up. I do also have two other plants in the tent as well, but for the moment there is plenty of space. Here's the four Sweet Seeds plants today:
