I'm get a little superstitious and worry about jinxing my grow by speaking too positively about it, but I'm pretty happy with how it's been going. Once I got the vpd dialed in they took off. I could prob switch to flower soon. I'm not to sure what else I could do with the branches. They look seperated and mostly around the same height. I thought about spreading them out some more, and I may. But I'm going to let it grow a bit more. Should I defoliate?



#marshydroprimeday

First major defoliation. It's def the most I've ever taken off a plant. I hope I didn't take too much from them. I think I'm okay though. I've def seen people go heavier than that

PowerSi came in the mail today, I'm super excited about adding it next feeding. Just watered today. I used a little over a half gallon and there still wasn't any run off. I think now that a root base has developed I can give them more water without getting as much run off. After transplant a half gallon of water would've given me at least 8oz of run off with all the perlite I added.

Amnesia lemon

Og Kush freebie

I did some adjusting today

#marshydroprimeday

First time using PowerSi.

I've not done too bad on this canopy.

I defoliated a little bit more today. Maybe 5-7 leaves per plant. Only interior facing leaves and only the ones blocking bud sites. I don't know if it's okay to defoliate again so soon, it was only 4 full days. But they're def healthy and must've recovered bc there were leaves everywhere. I had to look back at pictures to make sure I defoliated well the first time. I don't even know where the hell they all came from. I'm in there looking everyday but today I finally see them. I wish I could videotape them. If anyone reads this let me know if you think it was too soon. Or anything you wanna say regarding defoliation would be welcomed.

Looking unhappy today. Not sure what's going on. There's plenty of moisture in the soil. I watered until run off last time, 2 days ago which I haven't done in a few waterings. Feeding tomorrow. If anyone has any thoughts on them looking sad lemme know. I'm headed off to work. Hope everyone has a good day. It's my Friday!

#marshydroprimeday

Think I'm going to flip to flower soon. I would right now but I defoliated a bit a few days ago.



#marshydroprimeday

Flipping to flower tomorrow

Flipped to flower

Doing well

Thanks bro. Now that I'm on 12/12 it's a challenge getting home in time to turn the ac off and the dehu up when lights go out. I've got the frame of a larger tent built with pvc. I've got access to as much 3/4 in pvc I want. I just have to get the foam board for the walls of the tent. The way I figure is once I can get the dehumidifier inside the tent preferably along side a portable ac unit, they'll control the environment. Right now I have to depend on the exhaust fan to suck in the air from the room, that's cooled by ac and dried by dehu, to drop the temp and rh inside the tent. It's just unreliable bc I can't always be there to make the adjustments. The ac isn't inside the tent, it doesn't know the lights went off and the temp dropped. Like I don't even think I'd need an inkbird. I'd set the dehu and ac to whatever I needed the tent to be and they'd run or shut off on their own. What I don't necessarily understand is what the ac infinity controller would do at that point. Right now it turns on when the rh gets high. But in the other situation it wouldn't really have anything to do. I would just set it on a low setting and allow it to exchange the air in the tent. It wouldn't be controlling anything anymore. Sorry bro I'm just thinking out loud to someone. I've got this light now so I could actually finish the tent. I'd prob still get another light or 2 to fill the tent out though. Your profile pic is cool as hell.

Looking a bit sad today. I watered them this morning. There's some burning on the tips so I haven't fed in 2 waterings. If I feed next watering that still would only have been 7 days. In not sure what I'll do. Any suggestions or advice is appreciated. I guess I'll prob still feed but maybe half. I didn't have the time this morning to test run off so I'm not sure what's there. I really wish I could've. I've just recently started measuring ppm. I'm still not feeding based off ppm measurements, I'm just following the ff schedule. But I do measure the feed water then measure the run off. Also the watering run off too. But I messed up and never thought to clean the run off tray, so my results were accurate.

They're starting to stretch a bit.

#marshydroprimeday

still looking better than mine!

Still looking kinda sad but at least I can say they're prob thirsty now. I'm watering tomorrow and feeding. Following the ff feeding schedule first week of flower. But a little lighter. Also the PowerSi and Mr fulvic.

Do I need to wait until after the stretch to do any more defoliation? I didn't last grow and I believe I stunted the stretch. There can't be any light getting to the lower bud sites. If you guys could help with when a good defoliation should take place I'd appreciate it. Everything I've read tells me to wait until after 3 weeks. But some sources say after the first week and then again after the 3rd week. It stresses me out seeing them all bunched together in this small ass tent. I should've only done 1 but I don't trust my skills enough to put it all on one plant. I'm building a bigger tent but want to finish this grow and dry it first. I'll have a 5x5 growing area inside a 5x8 tent. With 4 plants I'll have so much room. Plus having the ac and dehu in there. Omg I'm excited.
