A few tweeks this week. I needed more distance from the light so swapped out the buckets for underbed storage tubs. Can really notice how quick they come on in a hydro set up. Exciting times

Had problems this week. Black mould on one wall that I didnt insulate. So had to treat that. Also increasing light intensity has caused some cooling issues installing a bigger intake fan tomorrow so will keep an eye on that. Also got some signs of possible nute excess but ph had moved up slightly to 6.2, so I am sticking to my nute intensity increase schedule but will be quick to adjust if need be but I want them to show for sure whats wrong before I alter anything.

Good week this week. Environment is under control. Ph remains stable Plants looks healthy Room is very comfortable for me so it should be nice for my girls. If it stays like this it should be an epic grow.

No dramas to report. Added a pump to keep the nutrient mix moving in the lower reservoirs. Might need to add a more powerful heater for flower as the ambient temps are a bit lower than I would like but its OK at the minute.

Another calm week. My Alpha plant is at least 2 weeks ahead of the other girls but they are all healthy. I was going to flip at 8 weeks but I may go to 12. Everything else is running smooth touch wood.
