1KW Blue Planet Nutrient 4X4 tent grow!

I haven't been able to reconfigure my fan setup yet, I need more ducting. I replaced my duct fans with the Max Fan though and it's WAY more effective. On its lowest setting, it drops temps to 68 with lights on. I hooked it up to a Temp DNe which tells the fan when to turn on based on my temperature preference, one for day and one for night. Worked perfectly.

sounds like a good catch there truckstop13.

Start of day 15 of flower and the girls have started budding. There are buds everywhere, top to bottom. Literally overnight, they just exploded. Stoked. Temps are are 72 with RH at 58. The RH has been hitting as high as 71, but there's been a ton of rain around these parts. I'm expecting it to go down naturally, but if it persists past week 5, I'll take action. I'm going to start upping the nutes a bit on the next feeding. I'm at 1/2 strength on my grow, bloom and micro and as little as 1/4 strength on the others. They haven't shown any signs of needing anything, maybe they need a little boost of nitrogen... A little blood meal and some unsulphured molasses should do the trick or maybe a bit extra grow nutes on the next feed. I officially added vermi t to my regiment after seeing how the girls reacted to it last week. Life's good. : )

smoke update from the last crop... A tiny bit harsh, but stony as hell!!! The harshness is slowly breaking down, I think after 3 months cure, it'll be off the chain. The high delivers a fucking punch, the flavor is there, but deteriates after the first 2 hits from fat bowl in a bong, it'll get there.

800 plus grams plus, is my expected final weigh in. Yup, I expect at least 1 3/4 pounds... At least.

Slight purple hue developing on the larger fan leaves. I'll up the Cal Mag to full strength tonight. Speaking of, my large fan leaves are getting fairly large, measuring 11" from tip to stem. Once again, completely stoked on this grow. These girls are SO healthy and lush and green it's making me a little chubby, lol! My temps are perfect and my RH went way down to 41! Actually, the difference between my night and day time temps is only 5 degrees right now. I'm considering connecting the duct fan to my DIY water/ice cooled AC unit and running it during the night cycle. It'll be effective for the first few hours at raising temps, but unless I'm there to add/change ice it won't chill for the much longer than 4 hours or so. If I run a sealed environment, I can up the Co2 and raise temps to 85, but I really want to keep day temps to 72-75 at all times. Decisions decisions. On a side note, the Gnatrol seems to have worked! No new bronze/copper discoloration and the BASF strips catch fewer and fewer new critters.

Day 18 of flower, no complaints. I upped the grow nutes a touch on tonight's feed. I haven't trained the girls this round, other than topping them during veg. I'm going to let them grow up as much as they want. There's definitely a main stem on each plant, but the rest of the branches aren't too far behind forming a fairly even canopy.

Stoned moment, in actuality, the girls weren't topped...

Glad to have ya!

I went three days without watering to see where the outer limits were. I will continue to water/feed every other day... The girls were pissed after I abused them. Lol. They looked a little droopy and unfortunately quite a few fan leaves show the same discoloring that occurred the first week after I brought them home. Not as bad, but early onset for sure. They'll bounce back. Resin is forming along the closer "sugar " leaves. They're coming along nicely, I'm exited to see these plants starting to develop!

Thanks Raiderman! There's a quite a few mid level buds and 8 of the girls have one main cola and one with two main stems/colas. I just got back from a 5 day trip and the girls are suffering from a little nute deficiency, what I'm not certain, but I think it's nitrogen they're lacking. My wife watered them mid week on schedule, but didn't "feed" them. So tonight I fed them and I'll probably do another light feeding tomorrow as well, depending on how they look. Resin production is in full effect!

Start of day 35 of flower, end of the 4th week and nearing the start of the 5th week. Over half way there and I'm pretty stoked so far. Buds are starting to put on some weight and resin production is really coming along as well. I still have some discoloration going on, but I feel like it's not getting worse. Either way, the buds don't seem to be effected.

i think you are going to get 900 gram at least

That would be nice. I'd have to average almost 4 ounces a plant. Not out of the question, but unlikely. I'm expecting 750-800 grams which is a little over 3 ounces a plant. To be honest, I'd be happy with anything over 600, but I really think 800 will be closer to what I'm going to yield. Thanks for stopping by!
