Can we get an update on the other tent when you're ready? I'd love to see them.
yeah, i can do that. it’s not the prettiest grow so i’ve not been wanting to show it off. i fed that tent last night with a dose of bloom kaboom. first nutrients i have given them, aside from the fugly plant.

4 more weeks puts it in week 10. seems within reason, but i will try not to rush it. i’m running out of weed from my first grow. may have to hit the local dispensary.

btw im NEVER putting 3 plants in this small tent again. after this it’s just 1. I had a single leaf with wpm on it last week. I picked it off, thinned out some lower growth, and stuck another fan down below the canopy. haven’t noticed any more. fingers crossed.
I’m kinda nervous now but what’s your temps like in there ? I’m struggling with humidity

Yeah I think mine might be a few degrees off too but what is it when the lights are off ? The humidity seems to skyrocket
i couldn’t tell you. im sure it goes up. in my 2x4 with the inkbirds, it’s at 60% right now with lights off...but i gave them all a feed last night.

it’s been 6 days since the 2x2 got anything. i was gonna water it today but it just didn’t need it. im fine with letting it get dry til the brink.

Dam I’ve been dropping my temps to about low 60’s just to keep the humidity down at night

You can PM it to me if you rather not post it.

As long as you have good air blowing around in the tent you should be ok with 60% humidity at night during veg, but in flower you may want a dehu. They thrive for denser nugs with less moisture in the air I believe. 35-40% is ideal for flower rh.

I've dropped my temps to lower humidity, but the plant started to change colors, and I also heard that growth slows in colder temps.

It took on a more indigo hue but that could just be because on like week 6 now but it also makes the plant uptake nutrients faster and could cause burn so now I got to adjust my doses

That part I didn't know. I'll make sure to add it to my notes. I write everything down. One day it will be a book lol.

I think the 60% is in part because I gave them a heavy feed last night with way more runoff than I needed....and it’s just been more humid than normal this past week. We should be getting drier air soon.

Hell, for a while I thought my neighbors had a skunk living under their shed....until I noticed the plants they had going in their yard. They haven’t chopped yet and we’ve had a couple of light frosts here in MA.

yeah I guess mainly you want to be in between 50-60% rh for most temps according to most vpd charts I just rather be too dry than too humid

lights in the 2x4 come on in a little over an hour. temp is currently 76 F and rh is 55%. not sure where it maxed out at but it’s really not flowering yet. soon though.
