Good day all,
Ending week 4 and beginning week 5!
Update at day 28.
Very impressed with what’s happening in the tent. Especially as my previous experience has maxed out at a 225w cfl in soil. (Which is tasting awesome).
2nd September: Filled my separate 80 litre res with 50 litres tap water. 475ppm, 9.5ph from source. Bubble 24 hours.
3rd September: Ph measured at 8.0. Again, PH down added first to bring down to a base value of 6.0. Bubble overnight.
4th September: Added 40ml Advanced Nutrients Ph Perfect Micro, Grow & Bloom respectively. Bubbled for an hour or so. Solution was 625ppm and Ph at 6.7. Changed the res solution.
Other Grow notes:
- Tent temp has stayed between 72-76f
- Average solution temps are at 66-72f
- The drooping disappeared after a day or two. Growth has been vigorous - see image comparison between day 23, 26 and 28.
- Some tips discoloured at very end.
- Seen yellowing subside after a day or two.
- Started some light LST.
- Bushy growth on the banana, even stockier and short internodes. Saw vertical growth intensify yesterday. Dark and lush, one leaf 1.5 times bigger than my palm!
- Diesel is looking healthy not as stocky, still short. Lighter shades of green on this plant. Much easier to twist, tuck and bend to expose side shoots.
- Roots are developing, closer to the pot they are turning into solid parsnips! Need to make some cuts to stop the pot
- Moved fan again as this seemed to reduce curling edges on closest leaves.
- Spots continue to show on lower leaves but inconsistent, maybe it's splash from nute change..
- Starting to smell some very sweet aromas.
much love to @derek420colorado and @MissUniverse.
Any comments always welcome.
