Lighting Dinafem: Moby Dick auto X 5

the way you opened them up, as long as you have good air circulation the RH shouldn't be too much of a problem. looking real nice VG

Day 54 and everyone got about a gallon and a half of 10ml sledgehammer at 6.4ph. I have been ill this last week but I did water a few days ago with cal/mag bloom. The rh is around 51-55% so as elsamurai said mold should not be an issue with the two 6in clip-on fans circulating. The buds are still putting out some white pistols and the orange is increasing but most of the trics are still very clear. Monday all the girls will get cha-ching (9-50-10), big bloom and kangaroots, so next week the bud development should increase (unless I fry them). I hope to get three shots of this nute mix into these plants before a harvest cleaning. Monday each plant got a gallon of 20ml big bloom, 10ml kangaroots and 1/8tsp of cha-ching at 6.4ph.

Man they look beautiful. I wish mine had been like that at the same stage. I'm seeming wait forever for the swell at day 82 today.

I think by giving some beastie bloomz at about week 4/5 I got things going sooner, but it also may be the reason for my weak branches.

Day 59 and everyone got another gallon of 20ml big bloom, 10ml micro brew and 1/8tsp cha-ching at 6.5ph. This mix has greatly increased the resin production and the plants still have good color. I think I will be able to get one more shot of this mix in before harvest cleaning, trics are clear/milky 60/40% and should be allmost all milky and a few amber by Augest 1, harvest day.

I'm just about put my day 85 up buddy. Gotta say yours look prettier.
Peace

Harvest, day 75 and all the buds are in 20 paper bags. I was busy and didn't get to post the last weeks, but I did continue with the cha-ching and last Saturday the plants got some sledgehammer and a week of cleaning. I had a friend help yesterday so everything could be done by today, the hash we scrapped from the trimmers is great. I have a lot of small buds, from the overcrowding I guess, and a ton of nice, hard, fat buds. I should have a first guess at yeild and first taste by Friday.

Day 9 and everyone got 1500ml of 5ml/gal cal/mag grow at 6.6ph. The temps are climbing so I have both circulating fans on and the pots are drying faster. The plant with the missing first leaf (center rear) is doing well and most of the others are good except one with a weak stem (left rear). My "cleaver plan" of a feeding schedule was way off on the amount of water but we will see if the nute amounts work. The led is at 24in and is on 18/6 schedule, tent temps; day 80-82f night; 74-76f with 47-50%rh.

When you ay off on the water, do you mean you would have "misted" more?

I stop misting after this first feeding, and don't mist at all for the rest of the grow. Many people use sprays but I don't. I feed the roots, the roots feed the plant and the plant makes buds. Works for me. The schedule seems to work but will need some adjusting, too much early vertical growth and not enough branch development. I made no attempt to control vertical growth and this may be more to blame for weak branches than the nute schedule.

I moved everything to jars to slow down drying, the paper bags seem to dry more quickly than hanging. The yield appears to be about 12 oz with a full 2qt jar of sweet leaf and air buds. All the 1 quart jars have about 30gr (except the jar far right, 20g) and I expect about a 30g loss during the cure. There were some nice top buds but too many small, light buds. I love this hobby, even the things I didn't do well will get me stoned. If cows--t could get me this high I would follow cows all day with a bucket and spade.
