How are you finding growing in a tent compared to a greenhouse?

How are you finding growing in a tent compared to a greenhouse?

Well, it's a double feeling... On one side I really like the fact that I can control everything (temp, humidity, light), but on the other side in the greenhouse I have sunlight, which no light can beat. Even on a cloudy day, the sun provides more light then any man made light can produce. But humidity inside the greenhouse is a b!tch and this season I've lost many bud to mold so I hope it will be different inside the tent.
The main advantage growing inside is the fact that I can grow in the cold season so I guess I'll be doing this routine for years to come

Hey growers,

Yesterday I made a new batch of nutrient solution. Megacrop 2-part - Late Veg / Early Bloom. It seems the ladies are loving it as they are getting they're color back pH is 6.08 and EC is reasonably high compared to my previous grow. It's already at 1682µS/cm or 840 ppm. I do feel I have to water it down for the SSSCAA girsl in there as they are still so little. Every step I take now has been scrutinized two or three times over..."Am I doing this right? Not to much water? Was that a bug I just saw?" Oh man, the greenhouse was way simpler. Just prepare the coco, dump a seed right from the baggy into the coco and let nature do it's thing... Now I'm nature and that makes me doubt my every move

With this little one I think I'm getting grip on things or do I???
She's growing nice large leaves compared to the other, older girls in the tent. Hope she's got what it takes to make me happy in a month or two

The tent is starting to smell really nice, mostly this is due to this lady. I picked her up and the smell of this Port & Stilton is YUMMIE!!!
The new, smaller leaves are still light, but if you have been following my, ahum progress, then you might have noticed she has been worse then this.
Hope I can still get some taster off of her

And again a timelapse from the last 24 hours...

Bro I know exactly how you feel outdoor was so much easier to learn than indoor. Outside I could blame everything on nature. indoors tho I know it's my fault

Yesterday my Pure Zyme arrived and I added 4ml to the nutrient solution I made the day before. Gave all the "big" ladies in the tent 250ml (plastic cup) of the solution, the Purple Kush got about half of that. The addition of the fan/filter combo complicated things a bit as I needed to find the sweetspot so the fan wouldn't pull out to much humidity or leave in to much humidity. So if you're gonna buy a fan/filter combo I would definitely recommend going for the upgrade which has a temp/humidity controller built in. I might even buy one as building one and integrating it into this model would almost cost as much as the difference between this model and the thermostat one. Maybe @Marshydro could give me a nice deal?

On with the show...
Amnesia XXL - day 40

The Purple Kush is starting to look really nice
Purple Kush Auto - day 22

This P&S is very hungry, as her sisters are all getting their color back she stays light green and shows signs of overwatering
Port & Stilton S1 - day 36

We're having a cold spell and I've even had to install a small heater in the lung room as temperatures got down to 16°C / 60°F and even the light couldn't heat up the tent above 22°C / 72°F. I tried and this only burned a leaf of the Purple Kush. Luckely the heater has a temperature knob which after a couple of tries heats the room up to 20°C / 68°F and then shuts down until it's around 18°C / 64.5°F. That's why you see the waves on the log.

And last but no least... timelapse

Hey friends

Not to much to say...Just another day and everyone was ready for another photoshoot
Amnesia XXL Auto - day 41

This little one is growing like a beast. Look at the timelapse below
Purple Kush Auto - day 23

I keep being amazed at what these ladies can take and still live up to their potential. Color get greener every day
Port & Stilton S1 - day 37

Timelapse from the last 24 hours...


The little electric heater actually runs about 1min every half hour. This is enough to create the saw pattern in the log below. Also it keeps my temperature in the right range. Humidity I try to keep in the low 70's as I've still got some youngin's running around in the tent and would want to get them sick

Hey growers.

Another fine day inside my tent.
As you can see the Amnesie if throwing out pistils at the moment. I think it's time to begin adding the Bud Explosion at low levels and start building that up the coming weeks... What do you guys think?
Amnesia XXL Auto - day 42

Reaching through the trellis...I'm not going to top this one. Let's see how big she can grow???
Purple Kush Auto - day 23

Don't think the Port & Stilton is gonna grow much more, but she's definitely full with pistils and stinks the tent up. An amazing smell!!!
Port & Stilton S1 - day 38

More then room enough for a couple more...Don't you think?

And as usual...Timelapse time

Hey guys!!
Just a small update... I replaced the damaged lens from the timelapse camera. So no more blurry spot in the middle and everything is looking sharp now

This does mean that there will be no timelapse for the last 24 hours, but hey it's Christmas
