I switched the 125W CFL from 24/0 to 18/6, which is what I'll be using for the entirety of the veg cycle. We turn up the heat in the house at night, so my veg cycle is from 7AM-1AM, and my flower cycle will be 7AM-7PM.
Mixed up a new solution to fill the solo cups with to the desired level outlined in my previous entry.
Lucas formula, 1/2 strength, + 75% strength B-52 supplement, + distilled water. PPM is at about 600.
Code:
4mL GH Flora Micro per gal.
8mL GH Flora Bloom per gal.
7mL B-52 per gal.
Filled back up to desired level while there was still about half of the pH'ed water from yesterday in the cups, so the solution is starting off even weaker...my estimation is ~25%. I plan to keep nutrient solution added at 50% strength until I swap in my 400W MH light and transplant to the ebb&flow system. I mixed a half gallon of it to start, which should be plenty to tide me over for a while.
I'm a little concerned about the humidity levels inside the enclosure, which are hovering around 32% with CFL on. I placed a container of water under the light next to the solo cups, hopefully that will increase the humidity. Probably more-so when the 400W MH is used, because that creates a lot more heat to evaporate the water into the air.
Temp, on the other hand, is PERFECT. I have the ceramic oscillating heater outside the enclosure, about 5 feet away and pointing at it set at 70F, and the temp in the tent is holding steady at 72F.
