Going to Veg her for about 2 months. However long it takes for the auto's to finish. Then I will spread her out before I flip. Most likely dropping a net on her. I have plenty of light in there to blow her up later on.

Nice seems like we’re on the same road right now Ha!

how old are the autos right now?

got the 2 tier net ready as well. maybe even get to try some super cropping in for even canopy as best I can since I’ll have the veggies as well.

I read there are training techniques with the chilies and tomatoes as well so hopefully they all get along

How big is your tent? Those Tomatillos can get pretty damn big. Peppers prefer it more dry than too wet so keep that in mind.

Good luck with your growing.

Hello!

2.5x5
I figured I’d just stay on top of defoliation and or what ever technique works to keep them down. If anything prune roots or even take a clone and cull the mother. RIP

As long as I had something to bring out next spring

thank you! I suspected water. the last water was the day before yesterday morning or the night before..<< probably the issue , not taking notes..

I was waiting for it to dry up a bit before next water.

checked the soil this morning and it was pretty light moist side

was planning to water tonight

Ended up transplanting the chilies out of the medium it was in and into new mixed soil in fabric pots

old medium: roots Organics microgreens. Medium on hand at time.

new medium: biobizz light mix with 1/2 serving of 4-4-4 Gaia green and power si granular

seem to be doing better to me?

now I can keep better track of soil moisture and water feed from the bottom to encourage root growth down.

when transplanting the plant had barely any roots coming out from the pod that they were germinated in.

sprinkled some myco

Update-

It’s been 1 week from last post. Since then the tomatillos and Roma has been transferred from a 1 gal to 3 gal fabric pot.

one tomatillo has even budded I think?

roma showing stress on bottom leaves. Maybe soil was too hot from transfer?

Seems to be recovering though. A lot of new growth.image.jpg

Peppers-
Seem to be growing just slowly. A late seedling seems to be catching up with ones in one gallon.

Maybe transferred to early?

Tucked the bigger leaves on the older one to get more light on new growth

also the Chocolate Bhutlah is showing stress as well.

Have been seen this chart come up and finally took the time to read it and I think this may be my problem.
4B2AE836-D270-40EA-A544-86E819CB7C04.jpeg

thinking this might solve some issues in the grow.

I have always questioned if my RH levels were low (30-40 average) with lights on and temp was about 80.

was in red hopefully by kicking on humidifier and bringing it to 70-75% when lights on
