Week 2 Update fems n autos
Here in week two I'm seeing some nice growth start of the fems with most autos still in the seedling stage. Moving along I'm still in the grow space tweaking mode and look for ways to improve daily.
Today is time for the fems to be fed. Last feeding i bumped it up to 700..oops. Didn't mean to do that on the first week but it happened. They did okay. I'm moving on.

...........Things happening at the gm440 casa.........
*I tell y'all. My mind thinks nothing but growing lately. Expectedly so after all those years on ice..lol
Got a lot to do today. New seed arrives from Fastbuds, need to prep some 3gal pots and get them ready for new life.
*The new Govee remote hygrometer/temp is here for my big tent. So far the temps are doing well in both tents being vented by one fan. I have grown to like the Govee line of things. Their smart humidifier links to this and does it all automatically for me. Just add water. Love being able to see what's going on in there without unzipping the tent.
*A new 6" booster was added to the small tent. I like this little fan. Plastic and lightweight. Nothing but a glorified oversized computer fan really. Has a great speed control included and is very quiet. Moves plenty enough air from the lamp. I plan on putting the new 480w in there. I'm sure it will generate more heat so I'm ready if it does. The 400w will move into the big tent with the 300w Adiding lamp for autos.
*Warming mats...bought two. Never used them before till now. The autos in the promix were so cold. That can't be good. Plugged in the mats and covered it with folded up grow bags and placed tray and pot over the fabric. They seem to get pretty warm so I figured a little buffer would be needed. I don't want them to cook..lol. So I plugged the heater into a timer. It kicks on every so often. Hopefully that will help them develop. Cold roots don't do very well.
*Worm Castings...my favorite foliar spray. I call it my JerryCurlJesus juice. Add a dash of silica and a splash of CalMa. Best shit on the market.. literally..lol
*VPD...made some comments about my lack of good meter readings on this important need in early veg and seedlings. I can now say I'm getting there and the numbers have been staying close to or dead on the vpd chart.
*I got 5 more 3gal fab pots filled and letting them soak up the ph'ed plain water as they sit in their trays. I arranged all of them so they all have a small place on a heat mat. Timer set..grow..lol.
*I'll be glad when all this tweaking is over but then again I love the challenge of setting up a grow space. Really, we never stop trying to improve. Sometimes we can overdo it and do more harm than good but most tweaks are for the better.
*As I was writing this the mail ran. Fastbuds seed in the house. Soaking this evening.
