They woke up from their first 12 hour night 3 hours ago. Some stats from last 24 hours below.

Temp: min 16°c, max 29°c.
RH: 55-65%

Don't know if it's the heat or they craving more light. When they started to really grow few days ago, a few things had been changed.

First I started to feed them a higher volume every feed. Prob 33% Runoff, upped from around 20%.
Also gave them more frequent feed, neglect has to stop at some point..

But think they really took off when temps outside went from - 20°c to 0, and RH had a chance to climb up.
Before this I didn't really think it mattered that much, but now I'm pretty sure I had the wrong impression.

This made me decide on buying a dehumidifier to run in the room for more accurate range. Gives me the bonus of warming up the room a bit when lights are off.
If humidity is highest right when lights turn off cause of temp dropping, and there is no need for a dehu when lights on this would be perfect. Could plug it on a timer, turn on when lights off.

Should mention, almost at max wattages. If not I wouldn't bother with the timer.

Think I found another reason the 3 plant side didn't seem as vigorous as the 4 plant side. I accidentally had uv on.. Turned off now.
Turned on red and IR on all lights.

I'm cutting clones and lollipopping. First in a long time. Taking many hours. Gonna hook u guys up with some pics when done.

Finally done, and only have one hour left before night time. I pulled them one at the time out of the room and placed them on a table to ease the job.

Lollipop finished on all.
35 clones (5 of each).
Gave them something to drink/eat.

Probably didn't do this perfectly as it is my first time lollipopping. There were some necrotic spots/whole leaves, but very sporadic.
Still showing some cal and mag def, but not sure if it's progressing.
Using calmag at 33% recommended along with hydro nutrients for soft water at 50% recommended.

Anyways, here u go.

Man temps are getting real low outside again.. Hit 11°c (52°f) lights off today.
Went to the shop and bought a dehumidifier, 1k heater to put on the wall and a timer to turn them on when lights go off. Not to scared of 50-60% rh as long as its not high when temps go low.
Also bought a 2m frostguard cable. So tired of bashing on the pipes with my hammer to remove ice and open the drain.. Going to work on this within next 24h. I'll hook u up with pictures when I'm done.

Had to postpone picture taking of setup, busy days and I wanna finish setting up dehumidifier and a floor fan first.. Took some of the ladies while feeding.

Gave their first bloom mix yesterday. Can see something start to form.
Added a pic of my latest twist trying to keep drain open.

Edit. Not sure if u can tell by pictures but the heating cable is going along the pipe and sitting in the gutter.

Picture time! Growing like a biitch.. Realising that I will have to do quite some pruning and hopefully not too much training.
Remove leaves on top of each other,
remove sucker branches hanging low,
remove dead/damaged leaves.
Generally open up a little bit from below and almost to the top.

Wires taken care of.

Think they are getting a pale look?

Lights 60-70cm (23-28 inch) above canopy.

Still going 2ml/L flower mix a+b (100ml per 50L), which is 50% recommended strength.
Also giving 0.3ml/L calmag, which is 33%.
Hydroguard at normal recommended strengt.
I used veg nutes until around 11 days into flower then changed to bloom nutes. 50% recommended on both.

Maybe uderwatering?

I see some crispy tips and edges. Maybe ec too low or ner wrong for current stage?
