*UPDATE* INDOOR TENT
8 Weeks / 56 Days !!!
Yoooo! Rounding the corner to the finish line is Baked...what?! Area?? Ok,, well he's coming around for the checkered flag.
Getting sooooo close folks!!!
@BESTVA LED Pro4000 is doing a good job of illuminating this tent! I have those Pro1000s on its flanks pumping everything they've got too. The canopy under all the sweet spots if these lights is getting close to 900 PPFD. The outer edges are seeing considerably less so I have been doing my best to rotate the plants.
HUGE props to @GeoFlora Nutrients for supporting me as part of this comparitve grow. You all have been a blessing! Your whole team! It has been so easy to apply and water! I will be seriously considering incorporating the GF line again in my next run. Going to be a large living bed with a bunch of autos! Should be fun!
They all got a good drench this morning. @Terpinator at 30mL/gal. They have been getting this dosage rate since the start of flower.
They also got a dose of GF 'BLOOM' solution. Saaaay whaaaat?!? I know...but trust me. There is a method to this madness you are having a fit about.
I soaked 1 cup of of the GF bloom in some plain h20 for 24 hours.
Quick example of some of the fading happening on #3. #7 has consistently been fading fans leaves to yellow over the past couple weeks. Plenty of nutrients provided but locked up on top due to improper soil integration on my part. I also think I was not watering it enough in general but specifically on the top inch. I should have kept that more moist to encourage the worms and everything else to get up there and start working harder. Next run, I will be leaving enough space to mulch after every topdress. I think that would ensure that with every new topdress, it is getting worked in sufficiently and rotating the previous unprocessed ingredients. Then a fresh and thin mulch layer until the next feeding. Not sure how I'm going to accomplish this with cover crops though.
They all started off with 3L each over a few applications of the Terpinator and Bloom solution.
Then 15-20 minutes later got a couple more liters of just plain water.
Sucks that the AC unit exhaust is there now. Covers up my @420 stickers. Need to get this thing outside the tent. Takes up so much space...and it covers up stickers! Blasphemy!
Welll Allllrigggggty then!!! That's about it for the plants. Onto the tent.
Tent environment was ok this morning but needs more adjustments. Tent was getting sucked in a lot. I opened up the passive vents some but that worries me about light leaks. Is that an unnecessary concern at this point of their development? I folded up the bottom 1/3 or so of the bottom flap/vents. I folded them in a way that light would have to bounce off the floor to enter the tent. I also have a 4" flex duct with an insect & dust cover for intake from the garage/lung room. The flex ducting is temporary. I'll be putting something else there instead. Just not sure what though. Probably a 4" black pvc fitting. Something I can easily install filters to keep dust out. Peace out everyone. I have so much crap I need to get done and it has been a chore just tending to the ladies and tent. It's already noon!

- Put it into a quart jar.
- Cover it with just enough water to soak and cover the fertilizer - let that soak for a few hours) 24 hr clock starts
- After it is mushy and hydrated, then add enough water to give at least 10-16oz of "concentrate" solution afterward. I try to remember you will get some additional absorption but not a lot.
- Agitate it a few times during the 24hrs. (This will help break down what can be into smaller pieces. The harder the agitation, the more of the material will break down into smaller pieces.)
- After all that is done, I get only the solution and use 2-3 oz/gal dosage.
