Finally flipped and HOLY MOLY is it awesome to start seeing the flowers coming in for the first time on your first grow.
Super delayed flip to flower and I am manually switching the lights/opening tent every day due to prioritized spending.
BIG HUMIDITY PROBLEM. As I have still not hooked up an outtake fan for the tent I don't see my girls surviving past the next couple weeks so hopefully I can get that figured out.
I'll open it up to 95% RH by morning and it sits around 60% even with an open tent.
Other than that, I'm happy with the bud sites gained from my first ever grow. Just feeling my way through Topping, Fim, SCROG, and LST was fun a rewarding for sure. Just have to make sure they reach the finish line.
TUES: Cleaned tent floor and walls with disinfectant wipes, seemed to get rid of the smell so far.
Still worried about the humidity in the closed tent during the dark period. Need a duct fan hardcore before the buds start coming in. The first sight of trichs already sent me into a Powdery Mildew panic. 😱
THURS: Humidity break. Down in the 45% range and have been able to keep it in the 80s with a huge bowl of dried pasta in the tent lmao no coffee whitener or rice on hand 😒
Defoliation of light blockers and bunch ups to improve the airflow in the canopy. I'm hoping the UV lights in my LED set up are enough to keep mildew at bay and can get the dark period RH% down before buds fatten and there is risk for rot.
