Got a humidifier day before yesterday... 3x3x6 is as big as I can go in my apartment. I wish I could go bigger, I want more than 2 plants at a time. LOL.Thought about a humidifier or maybe using a larger space?
If the temperature and humidity are known, VPD can be calculated--and followed. What can't be done is control the weather. Control is the difference between growing outdoors and indoors. Outdoor growers can't control the weather. Indoor growers provide the weather. What's happening outdoors can certainly be measured, though.don't forget you can't even follow vpd outdoor.
People also haven't always known about temperature and humidity, other than what they could feel, and VPD is calculated using temperature and humidity. They're different measurements of the same environmental phenomena. Framing an argument in terms of millennia mustn't overlook the fact that measuring temperature and humidity is also relatively new. Farmers have always had "a clue" about growing conditions, however. We all know whether it's raining or dry, hot or cold.VPD is something fairly new in the cannabis history, people have grown and enjoyed cannabis without having a clue about vpd for millennial.
Of course it can. Then again, things can go wrong, too. Knowing why a grow went well or poorly can be helpful.cannabis can grow healthy and vigorous without you following precisely vpd
If humidity and temperature are measured and controlled, VPD is also measured and controlled. It just might not be calculated.also controlling precisely vpd in a small tent could require a lot of effort and a lot more investement for very little gain than just dealing with the weather and the season indoor. it may depend in what room the tent is located in inside your house also.
You could probably do 3 or 4, but it would be tight, especially if the plants are large.Got a humidifier day before yesterday... 3x3x6 is as big as I can go in my apartment. I wish I could go bigger, I want more than 2 plants at a time. LOL.
@HerbalEdu - I respect you as a grower and value your usually excellent advice. I just can't agree with or even understand your opinions about VPD. It's a useful tool and is easy to use (once it's understood). I grow in small tents (2x2, 2x3 & 2x4) and it's the first thing I look at when I check my controllers.
I do not know. I have an app that I have to use to get any reading on the tent. Their WiFi option LOL.Do you have an environment controller?
Thank youI really enjoy your posts. You are about a month ahead of my first go round.
Room AC, I have one in each room. Not warm enough here to run them though. ATM, I have the vent hoses running out a window, I may have to bring the intake hose in.Do you have an Air Conditioner?
do you change ec range through the pant growing cycle?I’ve found that if I keep my fan on 24 7 and my temp at 70-75 and my rh at 70-75% my plants thrive I feed recommended strength nutes every wet and dry cycle it’s so important I keep my ph of my nutes at 6.2 ec around 780 I hope this helps you out. Peace yall
When I change over to flowering I use less N and more P and K the my ec goes up to almost 900do you change ec range through the pant growing cycle?
and you use 100% soil? I am in 60% coco 40% worm castings and at day 20 I feed 1500ec during flower I plan on feeding 2500ecWhen I change over to flowering I use less N and more P and K the my ec goes up to almost 900
Forgot to mention that I’ve taken my 6 week old plants outside now I’m an outdoor fan!When I change over to flowering I use less N and more P and K the my ec goes up to almost 900
I was told to wait on nutrients until I transplant. That the soil had enough for these small plants.I’ve found that if I keep my fan on 24 7 and my temp at 70-75 and my rh at 70-75% my plants thrive I feed recommended strength nutes every wet and dry cycle it’s so important I keep my ph of my nutes at 6.2 ec around 780 I hope this helps you out.

Yup I’m growing in pro mix HP +and you use 100% soil? I am in 60% coco 40% worm castings and at day 20 I feed 1500ec during flower I plan on feeding 2500ec
Yes usually premixed soils have about 25-35 days of feed in them, That's a reason to get an ec pen to prevent any deficienciesI was told to wait on nutrients until I transplant. That the soil had enough for these small plants.
Cool. I am well within that range and should be transplanting by day 25. All depends on how fast these plants fill up the peat pots.Yes usually premixed soils have about 25-35 days of feed in them, That's a reason to get an ec pen to prevent any deficiencies
Feeding Mega Crop 2 part nutes and it rocks but back to Michelle I wish you had 1 T 5 light is all you would need to start your plants with no heat issues or burn issues I tried t8,s this year against the t5’s . The t5,s in the front half and the T8’s on the back half. You can see the difference I prefer the t5’s not so stretchy as there are 16 strains in the pictureYup I’m growing in pro mix HP +
