Starting week 5 the girls are coming in hot, I reapplied the LST ties to give them the shape I'm looking forward to. It seems to go well, the canopy is nice and even.
They're healthy, happy, and growing fast.
One more week and flowering comes into play. See you there!
On day 31 I pumped up the Viparspectra P1500 to the max (150w) for the rest of the vegetative stage. Could have done it earlier, but being the holidays I forgot haha.
In the flowering stage, I'll keep it at max potency, and maybe add the Autocob (60w) on the last 3 or 4 weeks for the added 3500K light spectrum which will be great to promote flower growth.
I feel that even with the IR and 3000K diodes, the Viparspectra P1500 lacks a little bit of red spectrum. It's focused more on the vegetative stage, that as we can see works outstandingly well, but in flower, I can get better results by adding more red spectrum in there.
Day 35 went without trouble, they fully recovered from stress (probably caused by 35% ish of relative humidity paired with the 32ºC inside the tent and the LST).
@GuerrillaNo_4, Thankfully they're tough as nails, I hope they keep like that until harvest.
Yeah, I just saw your diary, maybe it's because Northern Lights are genetics usually resistant to cold, I never cultivated them in high heat environment. But in winter they handle it like pros. Great job tho! I'm sure your plants are gonna harvest a great deal.
@Nechmett, I'm amazed how well they are handling it. Just look at the burn on mine from 32'C, and mines a Northern Lights Auto cross, so fairly hardy genetics too
