Last Thursday plants were moved for flowering under the customized LED COB light. Switched to 12/12 and started giving them a light dosage of flowering nutrients. Humidity is kept at around 65 /70% during the day but at night it is rising a bit more at around 75%. Temperature is not fluctuating more than 2 degrees.
Plants have stretched and grow considerably during these last few days. 1st plant got more bushy than the second one but they are being kept at the same height.
LED COB light is hanging at 28cm away from them. They emit a lot of light and I am not risking to burn them. So far so good. I am keeping a close eye on humidity every day (concerned about budrot).
It's a normal thing and it's good for you : it means your babies are eating nutrients, which tends to decrease the electrical conductivity. I'll be around, happy growing bro!
I just gotta say these plants are looking so beautifully bushy. I wish mine would fill in like that, just goes to show how much better certain lights etc are compared to others.
Happy growing to you :)
Whatever you do don't make my mistake, either net or stake before flowering. Once my plants went full bush mode in flower it was near impossible to stake up all the cola's.
Yes....I already made that my mistake with my previous grow. they grew too much and one of them was full of mold. the other plant grew too much near the lights and almost got burnt.
About your runoff question...
You need to run 2x the volume of your container before you measure your EC or PPM runoff
Meaning.. if you have a 3 gal pot you cannot run 1 gal through it and get an accurate measure of the runoff... you need to run 3-6 (closer to 6) to get an accurate measure of your runoff...
I have played with this ALOT when I am flushing my plants due to the fact I try to get under 200 ppm run off with 10 days to go at the end...
Hope this is helpful
Looks great! Nice work. If your interested in watching some auto's gown in organic living soil with minimal salt nutrients, take a peek at my 3 new diaries!!
