I don't think the closet is going to work for vegging. Too much light leakage to be able to sleep in there. I think I can squeeze a 2x8 tent in there though. That should give me enough space to keep a mother or two make clones and veg out 9 plants.
Probably still a couple weeks. Im going to wait until I have rooted clones and then put these into flower. I need to buy a humidity dome for my turbo cloner so that will take about a week to get here and then probably about 2 weeks for clones to root so I'd say I'll be flowering 3 weeks to a month from now.
I aslo got a bunch of misc shit like timers, sprayers, twine, scisors, light hangers. I picked up another small T5 light as well. I've got 3 of the small 2 foot 4 bulb T5 lights and 2 small LED lights for veg. Should do nice! I think 2x8 worth of veg should give me enough to keep at least 1 mom 1 tray of clones and 9 plants veging at all times.
When I get this shit up and running...Yeah. This is exciting.
This has been a long time coming. I've been toying at this for years now but this is as far as I've come on a crop all my own. It's only a 4th of what I shot for originally but it still feels really good to be where I'm at and I'll get back to a big room someday.
This UBT method works a lot better if you do it early on from clone btw. You can do it without stressing the plant so much like I did with these. I like to take big beefy clones like 420feild so I have a lot to bury. So after you have your nice rooted clone if you only allow it to grow around 6 teirs tall and then top and star training when it's little I think it works a lot better.
I've never done it in a hempy bucket though! I can't wait. I am so fucking over soil. I suck at watering.
My tops are skinny, curled, and dry. I think it's either the humidity (highs of 28%) or possibly heat stress?
I don't think it's a nute issue. I measure very carefully and ph the water every time. The bottoms of the plants seem healthy and with the exception of the odd ball(yellowing) are a nice healthy even shade of green.
Heat seems unlikely as my hood and glass are both cool to the touch. I bought this fan to cool multiple hoods and I pretty much leave it on full boar so it's doing it's job. I've gone ahead and raised the hood a bit anyway. It seems very powerful ;It's hard to imagine a space in that little tent where it wouldn't be outputting enough light.
So that has me leaning toward humidity. Any thoughts or recommendations on hardware to fix that? I've been spraying them with water to raise the humidity. Could that be what's caused this?
I just went and took another look (first of the day) and now only some of them are doing it and some of them are fine. They're all getting fairly similar treatment so maybe it is heat pockets after all.
Sounds like hotspots or something like that. Every reflector is different too. Just play with the light height and that should help them.
I had similar issues in the past and it is usually due to the fact that my lights were too close. The closer the light the plant has to work that much harder.
