4 lights, 11 plants and an auto. Hydro.

48hr growth. Look a bit pale might add a bit more floragro.

 

[Okmedgrow]

Still going good. Temps are so low outside the hoods were getting too cold and cooling the room and the res dropped to 68°. I had to turn one fan off and the other on low to get back to 71°. Reservoir change tonight.

 

[Okmedgrow]

Changed the res. Backed off the fertilizer (1000ppm) and plants seem to be happier. Thought it needed more nitrogen at first but color has improved and perked up more from backing off.

 

[Okmedgrow]

Wanted a bit more space between nodes so I trimmed the bottom and raised the lights

3 days growth after backing off the fertilizer.

This thread is dope. Carpet warnings followed by OP defending the choice multiple times. Then a pic with no carpet. Great stuff!!

 

[Okmedgrow]

Added cages and started bending a couple of them.
The autoflower started showing male so I pulled it.

 

[Okmedgrow]

Still growing good. Lowered ppm to 950 and didn't add any calimagic this res change. Next res change in 2 days.

Roots are Hella white lookin good

Added a temp controller to the fan cooling my hoods with the temp probe at canopy height. It's so cold here at night my room will get too cold even with just one fan on low so now the fan will shut off when the room gets too cool.

Cleaned up the bottoms. LST for some plants and topping for others. Gh 3 part 195ml/55gal

 

[Okmedgrow]

Cleaned up the bottoms more and raised the lights hoping for a bit more stretch. Building trellis net support this weekend.

 

[Okmedgrow]

Figured I would try a UV fishtank cleaner just as a bit of prevention form bacteria starting. Product reviews said it worked to clear their fish tanks and some worked so well it killed all their fish.

 

[Okmedgrow]

Time to calibrate the ph monitor. Changed reservoir. Raised ppm to 1090. Pic of all 4 groups of 3.

 

[Okmedgrow]

First trellis support built.

 

[Okmedgrow]

Both trellis supports built. Bluelab calibrated.

 

[Okmedgrow]

Nets filled in enough. Going to switch to flower. Mini split AC ordered to help humidity durring flower and let me grow in the summer if I want.

 

[Okmedgrow]

Another res change. Last fill of veg fertilizer for the stretch. Change to bloom next week. Uv light in the res during refill. Uv light on in the control bucket on a timer with the feeding schedule to sterilize every feeding.

Buy a 200 board foot spray foam kit and spray foam the backs of the reflector hoods.

I like the idea but I don't see it being something I would do. I see it helping with heat in the summer but my hoods being cold from air cooling is what regulates the room temperature in the winter. I really only plan on growing in the winter. I Bought a mini split AC just to run as a dehumidifier but with the added option of a summer grow if I start to run low on smoke.
