What’s the nutrient bottle say? I think my nutrients (don’t quote me on this) say to use the nutrients the same day you mix them into water. But I could be wrong it’s just what I feel as if I remember so take that with a grain of salt as we have different nutrients and brands.

- are you special?
nutes sitting stagnant in a bottle for a few days isnt great.can get away with some chem but organic ish dont like it,maybe its the other way round.some folk have an airstone/aqua pump to circulate that keeps it good.
i use these dropper bottles some have 0.1ml increments,for most a full squrt is 0.5ml so i can mix up as little as 250ml if i wish
a memory min/max temp/hum like this ?
technically both correct,but my probe allways reads a few degree higher even when its beside the unit, it was cheap and the size of my cupboard being what it is an average of the room is good enough for me.
but i must get a new one as i put new batteries in this and it still wouldnt work.
good luck n keep er lit.

Thanks @archie gemmill
If both are correct which one should I watch more?
As in the recommended temp is X so should I make sure the shaded air is X or the probe reads X?

the temp on the unit itself should be more accurate.
the recommended temps/humidity for seedling/veg/flower are ideals,we not perfect growers with perfect set ups.i have seedling.veg.flower in a tiny cupboard the humidity goes 40-65 i dont know how many times a day,but its with range so ok.same for temps under 17 and over 30 is not so good.i have a lil heater on a thermostat that comes on at 20,when its 30+ all i can do is open the door a bit wider,but we dont usually get high temps here.
trailanimal grows greenhouse inside the artic circle,he can have the odd bitter night but as long as its not prolonged no real harm done.
try to keep things within an acceptable range,improve a lil where you can.dont get caught up in trying to perfect everything on first grow,you could be chasing your tail.
you doing great
try and relax cuppa tea and a rocket does it for me

Yeah I saw what you are using. It’s more or less a bottled organic tea. I had edited the post as it doesn’t matter one way or another lol. It definitely won’t hurt the plant by any means. I plan on brewing my own teas down the road with worm castings. They are good for the microbe life ect for organic grows.
Like I said the bottle should mention it if not maybe it’s listed somewhere on the fox farms website I’m not sure.
Question about nodes.
A node is where the branch meets the main stem - I think that is correct.
Each node can produce a cola correct?
I have the first set of new leafs coming in now, this is 2 new nodes correct? One "node" for each of the 2 leafs coming in?
This first set of leafs is also going to stay at the bottom of the plant correct and new nodes will form above it?
When it comes to LST - I think I read I can start that after a couple of nodes appear and from what I read, all I need to do is bend the main branch down which will allow more light to get to the new growth correct?
