So here I am, writing a small journal for my small grow. Hoping I can help others, and get help from others, as we continue our journeys with this amazing plant.
First things first:
3x3x6 cool grows tent
190 CFM exhaust fan with filter (thinking of upgrading)
2 double headed smaller clip on fans
1 oscillating tower fan
1 medium Tornado fan
330 w LED ChilLED grow craft X2
clones are Purple wookies (pookies) and WiFi #43, which originally lived in 1/2 gal pots with FFOF soil, then given to me with fresh FFOF soil, same 1/2 gal pots. Ive had them since June 13th. They were in those pots for another 3 weeks I think, before potting up to their final, 2 gal cloth pot containers with FFHF soil.
Nutes:
Botanicare calmag +
Gro-Tek Silica Pro
Roots Organic Temp Tea Grow/ Bloom that I have used twice so far, resulting in a minor burn which I think is still in ints final bits.
Real Growers Recharge
GH ph +/-
Scrog Pro trellis setup.
Now, Ive been fighting heat this summer, temps usually don't go below 80 unless were running the apt AC, which has been drying the air and RH in the tent ranging anywhere from high %30's to high %40's. since then Ive gotten a small humidifier and have gotten a relatively consistent RH around %55- 65 and occasionally waking up with high RH's, to which I air out the tent and turn it lower. Also, I have read from their website for the LED's im using, state that temps around 85 allow for the best utilization of their spectrum and lights, its just very difficult to get the overall temp down consistently, and im not even at %100 on the dimmer!!I am also at the point where most of my available spots in the scrog are spoken for and thinking of switching to flower, as I am not sure about how much space I have and don't want to burn these ladies, The problem is, I think they could be a little more healthy before I do that so I can get the best flower I can for my situation.
Now since they were clones gotten from a random dispensary in Sherman oaks, I don't know the genetics or the mothers plants health, but I DO know that the purple wookies has been very responsive to everything I've been doing in a positive way, meaning my rookie mistakes of defoliating during veg to control the shape. I just can't seem to shake the leaf burns from what I believe was overfeeding and haven't given them nutes for almost 4 weeks or so, with the exception of 1 2ml calmag dose, to see if it would do anything, and the weekly feeding of the Recharge microbes. The Wifi #43 on the other hand, came to me with Variegation (Multi colored leaves ),and has just seemed very sad its entire existence, so im essentially writing that one off to poor genetics, but hopefully I'm wrong.
Both of these plants started their first 2 weeks outside and I brought them into my new tent, I have a few samples of the Dr Zymes stuff I plan on spraying them with soon to take care of any pests, haven't shown any signs of any that I have seen so far. nothing flying around in the air.
here is a pic of them from this morning:
sorry for the incessant rambling, I know its all over the place. so is my mind trying to figure everything out
