Week 3 results

3rd week came and went but left some knowledge.

This was the week of the newbie mistakes but there’s no better way to improve.

Almost a fatal mistake, deleted a scene of my automation to stop the new heater at 23C, just wanted to see it at minimum and how much time it took to heat up the space, was smoking a joint that was so good that I forgot about the heather :jawdrop::biggrin::biggrin: and after 10/15min noticed my Wi-Fi temp control showing 33 degrees C:doh::gassy: and this was like 20/30 min into the dark period, went full SOS mode and ran into the tent, open it for the hot air to come out trying to give them the least amount of light possible.
All the plants were a little withered but I think I’ve acted fast enough and gave all the leafs a spray of Biobizz leafcoat.
Next day was day of foliar spray with Acti-vera Alg-a-mic and Fish Mix and damn they love it.

Also yesterday when preparing the feed, I’m using like a 1/4 of the recommended doses, noticed that I was using the EC reader instead of the ppm meter :doh::doh::crying::crying::crying:.

This mistake might have been a blessing in disguise, the reader was showing around 500 us/cm that was around 280ppm and I’ve been constante bellow 400us/cm so my plants if something are underfed, I guess.

With this issue identified next feeds will be more around 400ppm and LST will start tomorrow.

Your set up looks boss m8. Plants looking good!! :baked:
Ty @EP3 :pass: , the setup is still not the way I wanted it but it’s getting there, recently added a 20€ clothing racket to have all the equipments on it and have 2clip fans on its way but have the feeling that the space will not be enough with all the gear like it is.
 
There is so much more too!! Lol. You look to be pretty well set up. Your plants look good to my untrained eye :thumbsup:

All you have to do is get all of that equipment out of that tent. LOL. Those plants ae going to explode. Is that a 4x4 tent? I can not grow 4 Autos on a 4x4 tent they get far too big. I suppose if you just consider it a SOG grow and scrog them and defoliate them but 6 will just be so crowded the returns will be diminishing IMO. The plants look fantastic. If you keep them as healthy as they are now they will be huge. Do you have a friend that can finish 2 of them for you? That or teach me how to grow 6 monsters in a 4x4. I have a 4x9 now and I have 9 plants going I want to start 3 more. No way I will have room. I guess on need to try it and realize it wont work. At least they will be 4 plantings about a week apart each. Plus I have strains that will finish in 60-70 days which should help.

GREAT JOB! Girls look fantastic. Careful but give them a good hard LST. You should be able to get those main leaders to a 90 in the span of a couple days. If that is your goal. Don't try to do it all at once.

Yap, this is a 4x4 and the space has become my nr 1 issue to overcome.

The only thing I can’t really remove is my big ass dehumidifier, the black vent will come down to the ground as well and the 2clip fans arriving will not take any space, the good thing about the diy storage cabinet is that it is modular so I can rearrange it the way I want it.

Will wait a little more to see if the girls hight will pass my dehumidifier so I can center the light and think on going for the SOG and rearrange the gear but I’m still uncertain of what course to take.
I have no one that can finish any of my plants, selected this strains for being bushier rather than tall and they all have around the same time to finish.

Started today with LST and tried to go gentle with them and will reposition every 2days, still getting the hang of it.

Niiiiice!!!
On your 2nd photo you have something interesting that I’ve never saw, a fan leaf with the wires to take less light space, is that ok to do and will not damage anything? Could really use that for some big leafs that are really close to the new branches and couldn’t wired them

Absolutely I gently wire it closed. No damage to the leaf. Floods the lower new branch with light. Once the new branch jumps up over that fan leaf ill remove the wire.
