Second real week of flowering completed with a very stable transition after the stretch phase. Plants have finished stretching and clear flower site formation is now visible across the canopy, with abundant white pistils and a very uniform structure.
The environment has been kept well controlled throughout the week, running temperatures around 24โ25 ยฐC, relative humidity close to 50โ55%, and a stable VPD in the 1.4โ1.5 kPa range. This has allowed proper transpiration without any signs of stress. Root zone temperatures remained in the optimal range, around 20โ21 ยฐC, supporting healthy root activity.
In terms of lighting, PPFD was progressively increased to around 850โ880 ยตmol/mยฒ/s, resulting in a DLI of approximately 38โ39 mol/mยฒ/day. This is a high but safe level for this stage, always supported by a balanced environment. Plant response has been very positive, with no signs of light stress.
Nutrition has been gradually adjusted toward flowering, maintaining a good balance between continued growth and floral development. EC has been stable around 1.1โ1.2 mS/cm with a pH close to 6.3. Leaves remain healthy with good turgor and overall color, with slight tonal variations that are normal during this transition phase.
Overall, a very solid week: vigorous plants, well-formed structure, and a clean, healthy start to flower production. Everything is set up perfectly to enter week 3, where the focus will be on consolidating early bud development while maintaining environmental and root-zone balance.
