First Time Grow Progress Pictures - 10/21

Running some 350w in (2) 2x2s, full spectrum lights. Looking at the sf4000 for a 5x5 whenever I make the jump. Having issues keeping humidity stable. Running a humidifier with a single intake inline 350cfm with a adjustable control ducted in from the outside through a charcoal filter into the tent. It helped keep it more in the ballpark without having to vent my tent constantly but it seems it's up and down constantly. That normal as the plants sweat and breath? Tried it as an exhaust through the filter first but it was just sucking the humidity out.

Organic is hands off...you don't have to PH your water. You don't have to mix nutrients. You don't have to empty saucers. You water way less (more free time).

If you use Blumats with living soil, the only thing you need to do (besides some defoliation) is dump a few gallons of tap water into the reservoir once or twice a week.. The closest thing to effort-free as you can get.

Update on the ladies. I think they're doing pretty well. They look healthy. Just started introducing florabloom and lotus boost 7 weeks from seed. Picked up the General Hydro Flora series to try out going forward as well as lotus nutrients starter pack to do maybe a side by side or something. Have only used nitrogen and calmag up to this point. Got them in natural light this time as well. Was doing some LST up until the last few days and it just became overwhelming. I'd like to defoliate some more but I'm worried about taking off the wrong leaves.
