2020 Itβs on!! Finally warm enough at night to put the very first seedlings in for the season. Itβs definitely early. Late August here, but I am trying to keep the soil a bit warmer by bringing in at night. I am also extending the light each night for about another 4 hours. The plan is to do this up to about 5 weeks then leave outside. They should flower out from there and my 2nd run can go in before the intense heat of summer hits. Or thatβs how itβs all supposed to go anyway, will see what happens! I grew the GHS Jack last year and it was I bit shabby looking, but the tastiest bud I have tried to date so happy to go around again. π»
@Shooey, Same here mate, few 30 plussers with glorious sunshine in a row and things just shift in another gear π²
This weeks updates are gonna be fun πβοΈ
I think you leave cup at certain hours and unfurl at other. And I don't think that it is too serious. Could be from varying humidity during the day. A way to check is to plug in numbers for VPD.
In case you don't have it, this is the formula to indicate how fast water would evaporate :
VPD = 610.78 x e^(T / (T +238.3)) x 17.2694 x (1 β RH/100)/1000
The folk lore says for vegging VPD should be 0.8β1.1 (kPa)
And for flowering VPD should be 1.0β1.5
Lower VPD means its wet. Water less. If anything, get a fan or spay anti-mold.
Higher VPD means its parch. Better water more often.
I put this in an excel file. Realistically I can't do much to effect outdoor rain. Best thing to do for me is to grow in season like normal people would.
@Med_in_Tropic, geez med, Iβm flat out putting my pants on the right way, let alone work out that formula!! Iβm gonna need a few smokes beforehand for sure ππ
I donβt think itβs humidity as itβs been really mild so far this year, but you might be right about watering. Not sure if I am getting it spot on with jack. Still, itβs another cool looking thing that I havenβt seen before. smells great thoughππ
@Grey_Wolf,hi mate. I can but i wasnt planning on it. I planted early sept last year and they flowered out. I figure at 5 weeks we will just be over 12 hours light here and they should finish out. Your thoughts mate? Do i risk them going back into veg or hermie if i dont cover them up?? Cheers bro
