Day 26

Noticed that the base was empty. That's about a half-gallon a day on top of the half-gallon I fertigated yesterday. Also observed that the humidity in the tent was over 50%. That's fine for veg, but I might have to make adjustments once flowering gets underway. Speaking of flowering, I think it's close to beginning. The tops look like their crowns may be coming in.

Something else worth mentioning is how much this plant is stretching. I adjusted the lights yesterday so that they were 18" above the tops. Today, they're 12". I swear, it's like a foot from where I topped the plant to the first nodes on the 2 shoots that came out of there. This could be my light. The plant is stretching looking for something. I decided not to raise the light any today. If it really wants to be 12" away, then I'm gonna let it. If it's 6" away tomorrow, well, I'll raise it because that'll indicate that it just wants to stretch.

I'm noticing that the mushroom explosion has subsided. Now, some fuzz is growing on the carnage. It's all white and blue and disgusting. I trimmed the lower 3 sets of leaves as they never saw any light any more and it was obscuring my view of the underbrush.

If you look real close at some of those stems, you can see the stretch. There's some good claw going on too. This isn't uncommon in my organic grows.

This pic is for a baseline. I'm watching the yellow on the tips. Either it'll come in the next couple of days as happens with new leaves or it'll turn brown as happens with nute burn.

You mentioned “claw”, is that referring to the leafs curling down? I had the same issue on my last grow. I added a heater and the issue went away. I wonder if you’re experiencing low temps. Anyway, good luck with this grow!
