So, a few comments this evening.
1. There is NO way this grow is going to 10 weeks, and even 9 weeks is in question at this point. I have the feeling there will be 2 harvests- one around 8-8.5 weeks and the other around 9 weeks. It was pretty evident in my last room scan a few minutes ago.
2. I'm actually watering every day right now. with the dehumidifier running all the time and warmer temps outside. So, I've reduced my fertilizer schedule to 700 ppm for 2 watering's, then a flush near 300 ppm for the 3rd. Still at 25% with the Massive. I'll stop the Cal/Mag at around 7.5 weeks too.
3. I continue to defoliate leaves on a daily basis.......just a handful a day. Any large or blocking underneath, it's gone. Still quite leafy though, if you look at the pic's.
4. I've been running the room just a bit warmer, around 83 degrees. Slightly warmer than normal, but the plants seem to love it. I will be lowering the room temps to 78-80 degrees in about 10 days, there's no need to push them at the end. I may even raise the LED's 6 inches more too.
5. UV-B....... since I'm thinking I won't be going longer than 9 weeks or so, I'll start the UV-B at 7 weeks on a limited basis and increase slowly watching closely for any side effects.
6. The dehumidifier holds around 1.5 gallon when full, and I've been using that water along with r.o. water to water the plants. Things seem fine with the mix, no issues.
7. pH remains at 6.3 with every watering, lights remain at 12/12 On/Off. The exhaust runs 24/7 and the other Phresh filter also runs as a room scrubber 24/7. Lately the smell more musky than "potty".
8. I've been seeing some ants on the floor so I put some ant traps down, but no other insects or flying critters (gnats).
Thurs. is 6 weeks, moving quickly with not much to do at this point.
