This was veg indoor, flower outdoor.
There is a grow journal on it somewhere in the Sweet Seeds section - must be about a year ago.

Anyway - to answer your question @blowyourmind - this was day 63 harvest.

DAY 11

Things seem to be happening as they should be.
I've consciously made a couple of changes this grow, to try and simplify things, long term.

Obviously most notable [for me], is starting the grow in the "Drying" tent, instead of the larger "Grow" tent.
It just seemed to make sense for seedlings, and is a hell of a lot easier to control.

Secondly is the lighting.
Whereas in all other grows, the first light the girls have seen has been a single 600W HPS, this time I have opted for a 250W 6500k CFL.
It just made sense, and so far, seems to be working well.
To be honest, I have struggled with it, because I'm used to MORE light.
Doesn't mean there is not enough light, it just means I'm used to more.

But I'm not the focus here; I'm not the one growing, so my preferences mean fuck all.​

Finally - and this one is probably not as noticeable, I've really backed off on the watering and nute schedule.
Previously, I would have been a member of the "small amounts and often" club.
As a result, I feel I tended to overwater the babies.
I have habitually always been a "everything but the kitchen sink" nute kinda guy too.
That's just my honest appraisal of my performance.

This time, I'm pretty much leaving them alone.
Watering is maybe every 3 to 4 days.
Tough love.
They want water? They need to go look for it.
Periods of wet and dry.
The tent environment is stable - very stable.
It's in a good growing sweetspot for them; ~26 °C, with 50%RH ... so they really just need to be left alone to do their thing.

Best thing I can do for them, is just get out of the way.​

In terms of nutrients, this time I'm going to lean towards minimalism.
House & Garden Root Excelerator is my weapon of choice, from the outset.
I love this shit - it is my "go to".
It's not cheap, but a touch of this [tiny amounts needed] goes a LONG way.
Tap water is pH'd to ~6.3, or as close as practically possible.
My tendency is to favour the Advanced Nutrients pH Perfect A+B base nutes.
Depending on other factors, this may or may not be the option here.
In other words, a good base, and then as little as I can get away with, to produce what I want to.
Less is more is where my head is at this time.

Photo time.

DAY 13

I'm not imagining it - the girls LOVED their latest feeding!

Major growth in the latest 24 hour period.
Well ... major in a relative perspective sense.
OK - fine - a noticeable growth spurt.
Happy now?

 

[Yozhik]

Begrudgingly, I'm becoming a fan boy of this CFL light.
Never thought I would be ...

COMMENTS:

Gave the babies some food today - again light nute menu.
Base nutes plus supplements beneficial to root development.

It's all about the roots baby ...​

Everything looks in order - nothing stands out in terms of tweaks or fixes.
We'll see how they respond to this feeding.
Might not be far away from transplanting time.
Their thirst is increasing which can only mean their roots are developing - as they should be.
Once they go into their 30 litre "final homes", they should go crazy with the new found freedom and additional under soil space to explore.
Looking for a big growth spurt celebration!
