Week 4 Veg Report - TrolMaster Chronicles 馃尡
What a week it鈥檚 been in the garden! We finally transplanted the Papaya Zoap into its final Autopot, and let me tell you, this plant is something special. Though her roots weren鈥檛 quite where I wanted them to be yet, the move was needed to help her catch up with the rest of the crew. She鈥檚 already looking fantastic in her new home, and I have no doubt she鈥檚 about to explode with growth in the coming days. Sometimes, you just have to trust the process, and I鈥檓 feeling like this is one of those moments. It鈥檚 almost as if the room itself is taking on a life of its own. 馃尶
In fact, I鈥檓 starting to believe that what we鈥檙e building here is something greater than ourselves鈥攖here鈥檚 this energy in the room, a feeling of everything coming together perfectly. I can鈥檛 wait to see how this journey unfolds!
Dialing in the VPD with TrolMaster鈥檚 Tech
Now, let鈥檚 talk VPD (Vapor Pressure Deficit) and how I鈥檝e been keeping everything in check with the Tend-X and the incredible (DSH-2U) Humidity Station. VPD is crucial to plant health鈥攊t鈥檚 all about finding that perfect balance between humidity and temperature to optimize transpiration and nutrient uptake. The (DSH-2U) Humidity Station, connected directly to my humidifier, has been an absolute game-changer in this regard. With its real-time data and automation, it allows me to monitor and adjust the RH with pinpoint accuracy.
Simple yet brilliant, the (DSH-2U) Humidity Station is keeping my room at the sweet spot I need. Whether I鈥檓 tweaking the settings from my phone while I鈥檓 out and about or just fine-tuning things while relaxing at home, this machine does it all. It鈥檚 like having an extra pair of hands in the grow room鈥攁nd when you鈥檙e managing something as complex as VPD, that鈥檚 invaluable!
And yes, the TM+ Pro App鈥攍et鈥檚 not forget how awesome it is. I鈥檓 adjusting my grow room from the couch, the car, or even the bathroom 馃槣. I鈥檝e said it before, but this app is making growing easier than ever.
Feeding the Girls: The Perfect Blend 馃尡
We鈥檝e upped the game by adding CaMg-Boost at 0.25 ml/L to the feeding schedule. Along with the 1 ml/L of the all-in-one liquid, this brings the TDS up to 320 ppm, with a pH of 5.99 and solution temperature of 24.8掳C. In the soil, readings are around 415 ppm, with temperatures hovering around 25掳C The plants are absolutely thriving, and I can already see the difference this new feed is making.
I can鈥檛 help but have a bit of fun with this process鈥攊t feels like I鈥檓 spoiling them with the best of the best. And they鈥檙e rewarding me with beautiful growth and vibrant green color. You know how it is, with the right care and attention, these plants are truly becoming a masterpiece in the making. 馃尡
