Another week of explosively tight node growth! Mix of nutrients was made to an 80L ratio. Defoliation was done (slight).
I am planning to flip to 12/12 soon, as the plants are 20” and I have about 48” of room for total growth (not including the space needed to the LED).
The trellis will be installed shortly, as hydroton doesn’t have the stability soil has, and the plants seem to be able to be moved easily. This should help support the fat nugs-to-come.
Edit: added week 5.5 photos. Trellis installed and flipping g to 12/12.
@Rayshian, Thank you for the kind comments! I don’t implement CO2. It’s all air passively drawn from outside the tent.
I am in a below-ground room, so that helps with less temp and humidity fluctuations.
@Hydro_Bins, thays the way it goes my friend! Don't be afraid to ask the community! It's fantastic and there's sooooo much knowledge out there just waiting to be asked 💯
@NugLife420, Thanks! The bottom of the bins have about 1.5” - 2” of water in them at all times.
Handy in case of a power outage, but more curious how the roots may develop.
