The girls are coming along. Righty is a little taller than her sister. Seeing preflower emerge. Taking advice from Jordan on The Grower's Network and will not switch lights or feed bloom nutrients until vertical growth stalls out. They are doing great so far just using up the nutrients in the Happy Frog. Day 23 - I checked in last night and the humidifier was out of water, but RH was still 30%. Kept it off all night and it was still 25% when I checked in the morning. Going to keep it off. I also tucked the big fan leaves under the branches so the bud sites can get more light. I had read about "tucking" on other boards, but I didn't understand what they meant. Now I get it. I added some pre- and post-tuck photos just in case others are confused. Day 25 - Tucking seems to have helped Righty more than Lefty. She's really starting to take off. I used plant ties to help keep Lefty's big fan leaves under the branches. Day 26 - Gave the girls 1/2 strength Fox Farm nutrients last night. Showing no ill effects and still growing about an inch per day. Looking at other diaries, vertical growth continues until a few weeks before harvest. Knowing that, I don't think waiting for vertical growth to stall before switching lights is the way to go. I'm going to swap out bulbs this weekend. Stay tuned.

@bobo420, Thanks. So far, so good.

Good luck with the grow! As for the RH, you're right, probably have 'too good' air exchange and the fresh air that comes in is relatively dry, although 10% seem a bit low even then. You can put the exhaust on slower speed or connect it through a timer ;)

@bobo420, I'm having a hard time finding the right balance. If I lower the fan speed, temps go up. I put a clip fan in the tent last night to circulate air a bit better and lowered the exhaust fan. We'll see what that does.
