Day 27
Haven't been real happy with the way things have been going, and neither are the plants. The color of the leaves are not a uniform green. They are a bit mottled. They're also a little droopy. Cold weather has come in prematurely and rained on my party. Temps in the tent have been 61-68 degrees and they haven't liked it. It took them a full week to dry out enough to want water again. I guess it's time to do some environmental controls.
First I replaced my piece of drywall that I retro fit over the attic opening, it has a 6" hole in it to duct air out of the closet. I put the standard door back on. Used some duct tape to seal off the cracks around the door.
I cut the regular ductwork and let it hang. The filter is now just acting as a scrubber.
I went to Northern Tool and picked up a quartz heater for the closet. The hole space is about 40 square foot so it shouldn't be too bad to heat with the door closed.
The lights off temp is now around 70. I'll see what it is with lights on and adjust the thermostat accordingly. I'll need to keep an eye on the humidity and see where it settles.
Yesterday they all got a gallon drink of 6g Mega Crop, 5ml Pro Tekt, 5ml Cal Mag. Between the upped dose and the heat, I'm hoping everything becomes verdant green. I also topped them all and did some tucking. I'll try to snap done plant pics when lights come on.
