This is the last week of vegetative growth. The plant is growing very strong, forming strong branches and big fan leaves. Continued LST on the main stem and some other major branches. Growth is now penetrating the canopy and is being tucked under the net to fill it up. Pruned a few stems and leaves from below the canopy which may never see the light of day.
Pale leaf tips/edges may be due to light stress, so maintained the light distance whilst tucking branches under the net as they shoot through.
Tracking run-off volume/EC/pH at every fertigation event as I manage the feed EC to monitor what the plant is doing/feeding. Fertigation is maintained at twice a day (at lights on and 4hrs prior to lights off period) to maintain the target EC. Light period is during the night time to better maintain heat/humidity conditions during light off period (which happens during daytime).

The grow setup includes ;
- Secret Jardin DS120W tent (120cm x 60cm x 180cm) placed inside the bedroom
- Mars Hydro SP250 LED light
- extraction fan - AC Infinity Cloudline T6 (gives me great control over the environment)
- ventilation fans
- aquarium heater for nutrients solution (for winter use only)
- small oil heater (for winter use only)
- small dehumidifier
- 20L Airpots (as final pots) and 3.5L general plastic pots (for seedling stage)
- Canna Coco substrate mixed with 40% perlite
- GHE Flora Trio as base nutrients and various additives
- pH and EC/TDS meters
- 2x Govee Thermo/Hygro meters (one at canopy, the other at the roots level - these allow for external monitoring and recording)

Some strain info from Royal Queen Seeds ;
An amazing mix of genetics background - Its true genetics are unknown. Some say OG Kush is a mix of ChemDawg with a Lemon Thai and Pakistani Kush. Others say that it’s just a special cutting of ChemDawg from the early 90s. The most obvious trait of OG Kush is its strong, unique, very dank, slightly citrus aroma, almost like fuel or strong detergent. The flavour of OG Kush is equally as strong and dank, with a long-lasting aftertaste.
Strong mental and physical high - OG Kush is an extremely strong cannabis strain, with most experienced smokers listing it as one of their favourites. The effect is as strong physically as it is mentally. Though its effect is like an Sativa, the strain's genetics are mostly Indica. The effect is as strong and complex as the flavour. OG Kush takes around 8 weeks to flower and on average the yield is 500 grams per plant.
Big buds with lovely tones - OG Kush is known to stretch slightly during growth but soon starts to fill out during flowering. Generally, it will reach a height of 90 to 160 cm. Its buds are large and dense, lime green clusters covered with a large amount of resin.
