Dimmed light for pics, but now plant looks happy, should I keep it dimmed?
Fallingthroughstarsstarted grow question 3 years ago
I lowered my light to take pictures and forgot to turn it back up. When I did notice it she was looking A LOT better than the last few weeks. Details in my grow diary. Have I been overlighting her? Should I keep it at like 40% strength?

Hmm, interesting.. it definitely looks better afterwards. Possibly the temps were higher with full brightness and thats what was stressing her, maybe thirsty? this stage of growth sucks up alot more water than early growth.
I always recommend this app you can download on your phone called Photone - theres a in app purchase for an amazingly accurate light meter that will give you a PPFD read out. I did my reasearch on it and its within 10% of the apogee high end light sensors. Its a great tool I use often for setting light brightness and height. That will show you if you have too much light at full brightness. You want something around at least 500 PPFD, but ideally more around 1000 for flowering.

Soil problemsSo I have switched my grow medium to soil and perlite from Bat-special. I give my plants 2L of water every 4 days but the soil never holds the water as all of it comes out the bottom. is this normal? there is so much runoff. 2L of water shouldn't be pouring out a 25L pot.

About NutrientsHello, there are two issues I'm curious about. First of all, does A.N Revive benefit the plant during the transplant process? 👽
My other question is, do you prefer Carboload or Budcandy? Is there any extra benefit to using both together? 🙌Week 2

Small EOL bananas, longer riping worth it?I've got some small bananas on my Euphoria from RQS (in my diary). I was close to harvest (probably in a few days). Do you think I can wait few more days for the trichomes to get more ripe without having to worry about pollination and microseeds? Just asking out of curiosity :)
