New Grower First Auto Attempt - New Year Budget Bucket Grow

Epistar 3W diodes.

That might be the way to go to continue to utilize it, I'll look into the space I've got and see if I can make that work
Mine came yesterday! Un-boxed, plugged in and works great!
 
Day 22- She seems to be doing ok in her new home!

I think she's going to stay a shorty which is fine by me, I really just want to get her to harvest.

I noticed the soil was looking a little low and topped the pot. After doing so I gave about 300ml watering of the 1g/gallon Megacrop.

I'm debating what to do once I finish that gallon. I can do another at 1g/gallong and see what happens or I can up the feed to 2g/gallon. I might just mix up both batches and she how she responds to the stronger one.

New light going in tomorrow after delivery arrives.

Looks great my friend, any chance ya can raise your light, to allow her to stretch a bit...I just notice inter-nodes are very close, which is telling me your light is to close...

Thanks now I have light up a bit more than I did in the bucket, I think before was about 12-14 inches above plant, now I have about 20 inches. I can move even higher up if necessary but it'll only be for 24 hours or less, since my new light coming tomorrow

Bring it up to 24-26" then if only gonna be for another 24hrs anyways...Make sure your new light is gonna be further away to allow the stretch to take place.

I don't think you should go up just yet with stronger dose... I say continue with current feed and lets see how she responds to that feeding with new light...You not want to make many changes at once...
 
@Unique thanks! I'll put the new light in at 30 inches high and then will not change feeding until at least 4 more days to see how it goes.

yeah, just see how she responds.. it may need go a little lower, but wait for her to tell you that, the inter-node spacing will show.
 
New light is on! I can get it to about 28inches in height above the top of my girl, if it needs to go higher I would need to figure out how I can shorten the supporting cables down more.

With 200w from wall i should get some pretty good light penetration, just hope it's not overkill. Worst case scenario I save this light for when I have a slightly larger tent (new space and wife permitting of course).


All I have left to get is an air scrubber with exhaust fan. Might pick that up in a few weeks.
