I think the growth has slowed down. Not too sure. Temps are steady at 20c - 24c w/ lights on. 20c w/ lights off. PH is usally around 6.6 range. PPMs are 350 (no neuts).
The new growth in the middle is starting to form now but it's taking it's time. No roots out the bottom chamber yet aswell. Keep on playing the waiting game.
Hopefully i'll be able to buy some micro in the next few days to give her a little bit of extra boost.

The kalashnikova took off slow for me, they never did really stretch to much but they turned into nice little bushes

Got my softwater micro 2day. The fish shop was closed so i didnt get any RO water. Made up 1ml in 2g for now to start off small.

Ok so I got my RO water today from a local tropical fish shop. Took a test of it and it comes out as 17 PPM. Not 0 but better than 200 PPM tap water.
So In 8.5 ltr I added 1.4ml of Micro. This took my PPM upto 100. Put a few drops of PH down in and it was 6.0. Put that into the waterfarm and i'm going to take a reading the next 12/18 hours and see how she does.

It's starting to get realy cold where i'm from and lights on temps are starting to drop. I would like the plant to get more bigger but I might have to add the HPS within a week or two.

Here is a pic of my thermostat aswell. The humidity bit has stoped working recently and just shows --%. I used to have it sitting ontop of the waterfarm so could it broken because of the water splashing? I take the batts out and it shows 40/50% humd but after a while it goes bk to --%.

It hasn't stopped working, humidity is below 30% and it's not showing the figure. We got exactly the same model and I had the same question when I first noticed it

an fyi for you bongo, I got two kalash going right now, I topped the one, and not the other, I put them on 12/12 when they were both about 6 - 7 inches, Now they turned in to nice little bushes. The one I topped looks the best, it's like a ball of bud spots.

Haha sweet stuff mate. I plan to top once, then LST, then scrog her. Can't wait to see if I can turn this plant into a monster.

Ah right. Understand now, thanks. So what's the best way to get humidity up? I've got a pint glass, half filled in the tent. I'll google it soon...

I tried having a jar in the tent, it didn't work. Well, the best way is to get a humidifier but I'm kinda skinned and actually it's so far so good with the low-ish humidity levels. But I'll definitely get one after the winter when it's going to get dryer.

I wish I would have scrog. I got three plants in a 2x4 tent that stretched so much I had to go out and get a 6x6 tent. My next grow I might scrog my ladyburn and kalash, they both look like they would work good with that.
