Indoor Chronic's Automated tent of organic wonders.

So it's time to leave the gals to do their thing while I go back overseas. Unfortunately I think I killed ZOG when I staked her yesterday. She's looking droopy in the back left today. GG is loving life and the rest seem a bit stunted. Let's see how they fend for themselves over the coming weeks.
Day #27...

Nice set up...subbed.

Day #35
Looks like I REALLY F'd up with the stakes.
Luckily I still have 2 alive.
Come on Gorilla Glue! Looking superb girl!
Big Bang is really bushing out nicely too. I think she'll be a couple weeks behind her sister now though.

I'll ask my garden carer to swap the pots over sometime this week so BB will share the centre spot.

Note to self for next run...
Don't use root riot cubes (makes for weak stem) and plant directly in soil.
Insert stakes BEFORE seeds go in so not to damage roots.

sorry to see the harm done...Are you sure it was late staking into the roots ? I've staked later in growth, but never had an outcome like you.
Like you...I gave up on "cubes" and i have had less problems. Keepem' growing -----:smoking:

Thanks growbro.
The day before I left I was doing some LST and brushed two of them by mistake. They both keeled over. When I looked closely the stems were solid but as soon as they entered the riot cubes it tapered off fast making a weak point so I staked all of them to make sure they had support during my absence.
Nothing else in there has changed. They're all on BioTabs and water from AutoPots so I can only think I was unlucky when staking. Must've been just a little too rough at an early age.
BB has only just started to show recovery in the past 3 days thankfully. Lessons learnt but a good one.

Day #42...
GG is really filling out nicely.
BB has almost doubled in size and my garden carer managed to move them both a bit more centrally.
Lights were also raised and humidifier turned off.
Surprise of ther day is ZOG... she's regained some life. I'm not expecting miracles but it'll be nice to see how she tastes.

Day #49
What a difference a week makes...
GG is getting PHAT!
BB has exploded (although I've asked my garden carer to take some pic's. I got a bad feeling she's turned into a he!)
And the surprise in the rear... ZOG. Hoping she'll produce enough for a couple smokes.

Bragging rights incoming....
Treated myself for Black Friday
Thought I'd try out the Ardent Lift (Nova)

Also managed to secure one of the Mephisto grab bags with the new Artisanals. Can't wait to see what else is inside.

Day #56 (wk8)
Starting to see some nice yellowing of leaves on GG. That's a good sign to me. Makes me confident she's nearing the end. Maybe 1-2 more weeks.
BB has just exploded and is only just starting to show pre flowers. Considering GG started pre flowers at around day 35 and has 7-14 days left she could be my first 90+ day auto. But what a beast she is! I think I'll only do 4 in a tent from now on if 2 swallow it up like she has! Who am I kidding... variety is what it's all about! Lol
ZOG is also showing promise, she's stretching up in the back corner and has pre flowers coming on too. All round exciting week.

Oh nearly forgot! I just ordered some smart plugs with energy monitoring. Hopefully this'll allow me to control my lights, humidifier and airpump from anywhere in the world while seeing how much power I use too.
One step closer to full automation.
Now how do I control light height via wifi to complete the system?

Sun systems is the only company that made a controllable light hanger. I'm going to put a light duty winch in my tent but I haven't found any wireless or automated options. Plants look good though. I'm subbed
