Outdoor Hillbilly Rig-A New Adventure

Day 42 and 9-Big storm system moved in late today. Dropped temps from the 70s to the 40s. Flood warnings, dime sized hail, the works. Temps in the closet dropped to 64f after being in the low 80s earlier today (thermometer resets high/low reading around 5pm so it only shows a high of 70)

I guess my automatic thermostat failed :crying:

Had to manually adjust the air intake :yoinks:
That’s the floor vent to the crawl space.
Back to the mid 70s already

Day 12 for Stone Fruit. Knocked it off its perch in the closet while messing with Black Strap. Fell about 12” and spilled about 30% of the dirt! It stayed in tact and I backfilled with more Biobizz Light. Hopefully I didn’t stunt it…

Day 45 for Black Strap
Getting 750 ml of tap water run through a Britta filter daily:
Day 1 AN Grow, Micro, and Bud Candy
Day 2 AN Grow and Micro
Day 3 plain water
Repeat
Had to snip a few fan leaves last week. It was so bushy that light didn’t penetrate well

Have a great week!

Its crazy light schedule when the sun is out and I’m home:
7:30-11:00 am east window
11:00 am-4:00 pm south window
4:00-5:30 pm in the garage to catch a few rays when it’s warm enough
5:30-10:30 bedtime in the utility closet
10:30-7:30 am lights on in the hillbilly rig
Trying to maximize the time under the sun
Seems like all the moving and switching between cheap grow lights and sun would stress the crud out of it…

Will switch to bloom nutes tomorrow. Stuck with grow nutes longer this time to see if it helped it stretch

Time to get fired up to start prepping the garden. Going to be sore tonight!
:peace:
 
Day 18 for Stone Fruit
Seems happy, maybe a bit slowed from the tumble it took a week ago
Starting lst earlier without proper research or experience so we’ll see…any tips appreciated!
Will start light feeding this week
