Hi growmies. Hope we are all well and still sane?.
This week has been another roller coaster for the ladies.
Amnesia Haze has gone crazy with growth this week. She has taken over 25 L of water this week to cope with the heatwave we are having. It has been up around 24°c just before lights off at 12pm. I am glad i decided to use the nights for the lights on period now.
I did lose the 5th node on the Amnesia sadly but the remaining 4 nodes are little powerhouses of growth tips.
She has also reached the pots edges after i supercropped them earlier in the week. They had bounced back by the next day .!!!. I love this strain so far..
The remaining ladies havevhad to cope with some issues this week. Heat and light intensity from the new Mars at 100% power took a toll on their chlorophyll production abilities. I have since dropped the power by 25% and raised the light a little too. The yellowing has not worsened and new growth below is looking good so far.
The worse affected was the Red Hot Cookies but now they both look settled root wise , they have improved the last few days too.
I did a pH check and got 7.2ph so I did use some ph down to drop it to 6.0.
There is a huge difference in the 3 girls and it is shocking to see what just 2 weeks germination gap can cause.
I do know the NFT can catch up once it gets its roots into the matting more. Fingers crossed we see some improvements this coming week.. Be well.
