In 8x8 gorilla tent. veg stage. 6-7 weeks. 2. K6000 alibaba 660w quantum boards. 1256 led diodes each. 9 plants 15 gal. Pots. Promix hpcc. Leaf temps are 10 degrees lower then room temp. According to the calculators to be at .08 or above, humidity is super low at 70° 72° or even 80° it claims 35%@70, 40 to 45 up to 80° with my leaf temps. Pots are staying heavy for 5 days or more. Used to be every other day or 2 max. 6F4Mind u at 80 my leaves were all canoeing up and felt papery. Even at 75 they dont feel quite like a fresh wet leaf, rather dry like 2000 grit sand paper. Is 35%-40% gona be detrimental or should i be more concerned with actual vpd# over a low humidity number#. Or is there a point to which i need the leafs at certain temps..cause at 75° leafs at 65° Also have a room with 4 gavita 1700s and that room aswell leaf temps are 10-12° cooler. Ive read alot and most time is 5 to a couple degrees difference. Im brand new in any forum at all. So bare with my forum etiquette. I try to read my azz off and learn the most i can. Very first run pulled 8 1/2 lb trimmed and dried, off the 4 gavitas. Not the seasoned grower, but not too dense either lol. General hydro all 37 bottles ahahahah (the whole line). Also any pointers based on pix. im a acceptor or negative criticism well!! Knowledge is key! These wer transplanted from 2 gal bags 14 days ago. Main issue is vpd though! Do also have falling ph issues in the medium. Constantly like down in the the 4.7 4.9 on occasion ive dropped 50 gallons of 7.0 or higher water trying to break the buffer, usually to no avail. And thats hours and hours of drenching. I believe i was over feeding frequency upon run off tests and journal everyday ive found lots of stacking of ppm and with my run off numbers i can adjust per next feed/water. However even the plants at 5.5 5.6 5.7 do not like it either u can imagine how the 4.7s looked. I have been able to get them in the 6.0 or above but its a struggle, dolamite lime and all. I have however saved every one, not thrown one out yet and pulling down 3rd run in 7 days. Again sorry im all over the place. Ive never posted before, anywhere. If i got questions i read read read and ask my friends who all grow...but no 2 rooms are the same, or what comes along withem lol.
