15.09.2024 DAY 20/1 RH 55-60 Room temperature day 26C Room temperature night 21-23C EC 320 pH 6.0 Water temperature 19.5-20C PPFD 400 Light cicle 20/4 VPD 1.3 Okay we are in Vegetative stage officialy. This week I'll keep the EC on the same level as the previous week becose following Athena program I'm supposed to keep this level ov EC for the first week in VEG. If I notice any deficiency I'll jump directly in week 2. For now the ladies are doing grate, it almost feels like they can use a little bit more fertilizer, but better less dan over fed, so I'm not taking the risk for now. By the way forgot to mention that now we are officially removing the supplemental LED and this little fighters are directly under the GML TARANTULA VOYAGER. DAY 21/DAY 2VEG RH 55-60 Room temperature day 26C Room temperature night 21-23C EC 305 pH 6.23 Water temperature 19.5-20C PPFD 400 Light cicle 20/4 I love to start training them as early as i cen. Day 2 and we are in LST. I don't plan on stopping or fiming anything in this run so basically we will see what is going the be result with basic LST and Scrog NET later in to flowering, when we put them in a separate buckets. Roots are more dan stable, Athena works amazing I don't know how it happens but my water is getting low and my EC doesn't change, they are so well absorbed and so stable in RDWC. I'm starting Stack this week and I'll foliar feed them 1-2 times a week. Probably every 3 days or kind of. DAY 22/DAY3 VEG RH 55-60 Room temperature day 26C Room temperature night 21-23C EC 275 pH 6.0 Water temperature 19.5-20C PPFD 400 Light cicle 20/4 VPD 1-1.3 I decided to stop the LST and keep the training for little later but accidentally topped/snapped one of the plants so basically it's too late and now one of them is topped. The good news is that it's early stage and it will have all the time to recover. Otherwise all the flowers are going great. I never experienced stems so strong and woody. I don't know is it becose of Athena or it's the genetic but this little plants in RDWC already have strong stems and obviously no cal-mag deficiency. I'll run 3 untopped plants vs one topped and obviously I'll have to gamble strong with scrogging and LST in the later stage. DAY 23/DAY 4VEG RH 55-60 Room temperature day 26C Room temperature night 21-23C EC 275 pH 6.2 Water temperature 19.5-20C PPFD 400 Light cicle 20/4 VPD 1.2-1.3 This strain is amazing and the combo Athena/RDWC gives amazing results I have never expected Root development on that level plus strong stems and leaves. DAY 24/DAY 5VEG RH 55-60 Room temperature day 26C Room temperature night 21-23C EC 335 pH 5.9 Water temperature 19.5-20C PPFD 400 Light cicle 20/4 VPD 1.2-1.3 Foliar feeding ATHENA is crushing it for me. I can't believe how well is working and this is just week one Veg. The flowers have strong stems and they go really healthy. I have started a foliar feeding with stack. I have never used foliar before and it will be interesting for me to see the results. I still can't believe the results only 24 days from seed pop. If we don't count this period it's week 2 and this is ridiculously fast. DAY 25/DAY6 VEG RH 55-60 Room temperature day 26C Room temperature night 21-23C EC 335 pH 5.9 Water temperature 19.5-20C PPFD 400 Light cicle 20/4 VPD 1.2-1.3 Brutal development so far one of the best I had, even the small sling (topped by mistake) is going pretty strong. Root development is amazing and so far everything is dialed in. DAY 26/ DAY 7VEG RH 55-60 Room temperature day 26C Room temperature night 23-25C EC 300 pH 6.1 Water temperature 18.5-19.5 PPFD 400 Light cicle 20/4 VPD 1.2-1.3 I manage to handle my environment, I'm still waiting for good heater since ACI still don't have it on my market I use different methods to keep my temperature stable. My humidity is pretty well set so I'm able to keep stable VPD of 1.2-1.3. I don't really follow the best recommended parameters, becose in my experience is better to be stable and more easy for the plant to adapt. pH is 6.2 I'm leaving it by purpose to fluctuate in order to be achieved full range of nutrients, so basically I correct the pH every two days. The root zone is perfectly clean and we'll oxygenated. Basically nothing can stop the progress on environmental side. The only question is do I want to increase the EC levels tomorrow. I'm one week forward in to the Athena feeding but it seems the flowers are more dan well so I'm asking myself with that well developed roots, can I push it a little bit more. I'll see tomorrow, new week new entry point I think🤗🤣
