Hey Growers! The girls have officially packed their bags and moved into a much fancier place.
The new setup comes loaded with perks: an automated controller that keeps the environment dialed in 24/7, managing every device so the VPD stays exactly where it should be (because apparently plants are picky like that). Drainage? Automated. Irrigation? Also automated. Basically, the grow room is now smarter than most of us on a Monday morning.
Thanks to multi-frequency fertirrigation, the girls are getting up to 6 daily watering cycles, keeping the substrate pH stable and nutrient-ready at all times. Less babysitting for me, more thriving for them: a deal I'm very happy to sign.
As for the Sticky Broccolis: they've been stacking nodes like it's a competition (well… it is), staying noticeably tougher and more resilient than their roommates. They just went through a transplant, so I'm giving them a couple of days to settle in before going in with the topping. No rush: good things come to those who wait.
Can't wait to see how they handle this new tailored setup from here on out. Happy growing everyone — and as always, tips, tricks, and roasts are all welcome! 🌱
