One Month
Well...it's been thirty days. Kinda funny she lined right up with the days of August, but that'll be shot in a couple of days. Despite being a bit smaller than I expected, I really love the way this plant is growing. It's the perfect hybrid (IMO) ... SatIndica let's say haha. But yeah not too lanky, not too bushy, growing consistently. Bud sites are fightin' for light as usual.
The FaSilitor is going well. It's interesting, as insignificant of an amount as .30ml might seem, when you add it to your water and shake it up you can certainly tell it's in there. Not just some dye that changes the color or some kind of organic-type green or brown either (the FaSilitor is clear). You can smell it and it initially makes the water "foam" a bit I guess. I've noticed a similar effect from AN's Bud Factor X (has anyone else who has used either of these notice this?). In terms of noticing any effects I haven't been using it for long, and it will be difficult to tell anyways.
The Canna Terra Pro+ is going well too. I like it. I can't say that it's a definite improvement upon my previously used soils,
Ocean Forest and Roots Organics. With those two I'd say I had better results in general from the Roots Organics, but my biggest plant was grown in Ocean Forest, so who knows lol. It's going to take complete grows and maybe even repeating a strain I've already grown. I'd like to grow another Auto Candy Kush in the semi-near future because it's the strain I've grown and vaporized the most. Regardless, I haven't had any issues with this stuff yet. It seems to take about the same amount of water...maybe a bit less. I was over-watering initially, but since I've allowed the CTP+ to dry almost completely each 24-hour cycle, she's stopped her bit of slumping and perked right up. I'd say the Canna Terra has settled a bit more than soil does too...I had it to the brim of the pot and now it's down maybe 3/4 of an inch or so. I'm pretty sure these 5 gallon smart pots hold more than 5gal when they're filled all the way up though. With 1.5CuFt. I would end up with
just enough to do two 5gal. grows... and really be a bit short. The CTP+ is 50L which comes out to 1.76573CuFt. so I know too that I can add more to stabilize a sprout in early vegetative or whatever. I should always have a bit extra. Unless I run into some major issue I'm sure I'll continue using this, I just get this feeling of quality and potential from it...I'm kinda crazy tho ha.
One oddity is that the humidity reads higher and
feels higher in this tent. I can't really explain it, because the other tent is literally a few feet away, but there's about a 7% difference. Could the CTP+ be evaporating it out or causing more transpiration or something. I'm really not sure. I've got this
AcuLink Internet Bridge on the way with three Temp/Humidity sensors. One for each tent and one to put on my grow rack. This thing is
cool as hell... hook it up to your router and it picks up the info from the sensors. The Internet Bridge then sends the temp/humidity data to AcuLink where you can access it from an internet browser or through the free app on your cell / tablet. You can set alarms for temp and humidity highs and lows. That'll be really handy for my drying/curing room. I'm excited about it.
Busted out the new camera tonight. The pics are going to look a bit different, I used the camera on Auto so it adjusts for the LEDs and so on. On a side note...
I love this camera ...it's fantastic.
I think that's it...prolly forgot something. Oh well, here she is!
