Doing better now that my chores are done, :lol: I see you hav a journal up. Woot. I will check it out and follow along.


Flower solution was 1150PPM @ .5. Added back 2 gallons @ 600PPM. This should bring me to about 1000PPM again.

Moms are droopy so they just got Ph's water. They are SUPER green now that they are under the veg spectrum CFL. So green that I do not dare feed them or I think they will N burn.

Mom box is 80F 30RH. RH is low but nothing I can do about that ATM. Mine is ghetto but effective. I really need to get through this harvest and pick a WB mom. I don't need two and the box is pretty tight quarters right now. :lol:

Day 7

1050PPM and loving it
Light is 10" from tops
Temps still too high @ 85F. 40RH. :wall: Fan will be here Friday. :leaf:

Adjusted water times up a little. My first water cycle was 1 hr after lights on and today the girls were pretty droopy by that time. THey perked right back up with after the first flood. Water now comes on for the first cycle when the lights come on. This moved all my times up 1 hour and allowed me to add an extra cycle that stops 15 mins before lights off.

All


WB2 clones :bigjoint:


WB1 (3 in next-to-last row over) and Durban Poison (2 in last row)

Day 8 - part 2

I bumped my light timer putting the humidifier tank in. grrr. :wall:That moved my lights off time up 2 hours. Cheap POS only spins 1 way. So i killed the light, fixed the timer, waited 15 for the cooldown and turned it back on. Pain in the ass. I also moved my final water up to 1 hour before lights off as advised. Thanks!

Pics as promised:





Crowded mom box :!:. I need to prune them. Once I know which WhiteBerry mom I am keeping it will be better.

Very nice man. Looks awesome. Sucks about the timer
My dog was in my flower room with me and decided to unplug the light..... It was really dark in there so it took me a minute to find and plug everything back in. Then it takes about 10 minutes for the light to warm up... Little bastard lol

Hey Jake. Good to see you.

Day 9

9" plants
Light - 12"
86F 35RH
1100PPM
Added back some PH'd tap water. Should be good till tomorrow.
Moved the light up another couple inches to bring the temps down.

Fan comes in tomorrow. :hump::hump::hump: I will be busy reworking exhaust, pruning the bottom 1/3 of the growth off the girls, adding back whatever is needed to the res to bring it back to full with the right PPM, and maybe taking some clones or at least pruning the moms. Good times. :joint:

i read the description and it said it turns off the lights when too hot would that not f up the plants by putting them into shock?

it would be good to have to activate a fan when too hot and one to activate heater when too cold to keep the temp steady

It would be better for them to go dark for awhile then to be 100F for very long :lol: They make full controllers that measure temp, turn fans on/off, measure CO2 and turn the tanks on/off. Humidifiers/Dehumdifiers. Cool shit. Expensive though.
