Life In The Day Of A Coco Grower

@SmokeSara do you think you will ever create a UV type of strip light for grow rooms?

I'm looking for one that also helps with killing mould spores too.
We currently do not have this plan to make a special UV lamp, but we added UV to our led.
 
I was told by a good friend about them and then I seen a few news videos of them on public transport for cleaning :).

I'm now at day 5 of flower and plan to add the second SP250 at day 7.




 
Well these have been neglected for the first few weeks I must say but there now in there own tent with a T5 and they look like there loving it!

From now on I'll be flower ring both tents off at the same time, I have 8 weeks to get these vegged up and ready for another two Scrogs.

I'll be also getting two new SP3000's for the second tent setup.


 
So seeing as though I have had two successful harvests from the new SP250's and the new tents I have so thought I'd set myself some small targets to accomplish in the next new grows.

I have yielded 575g in the first harvest and 615g in the second harvest, I'd like to set a target of 25oz per harvest with my new small plants which are getting 8 weeks veg so I imagine at that point they will be progressively growing.

Hope everyone's doing okay.
 
Well bud production is slowly starting and I'm liking the canopy even though its not fully dense as my past scrogs but atleast this way I have enough airflow and once I do a light trim at week 3 it should be even better.






 
Started feeding a slightly different schedule now, lowered some and added an extra few bits.

My PPM in is 65.

Cal Mag to 150 from 250 PPM.

Bloom from 700 to 600 PPM.

Green Leaf Sweet Candy 6g per 20L (New)

Flower Burst 0.25ml

Great White 1 Scoop per 20L

Botanicare Sweet (Adding Soon)





 
Well today was the first day my 9 vegging plants got a god watering, 20L between 11 plants with each getting 1L then the remaining 9L was poured on the tray to help soak up, won't feed again till around Wednesday.
 
Not the greatest of bud production from these plants apart from the auto which is a little further ahead but let's see what the next few weeks we have.














 
There now currently on multi day feeds:

8am on

11am First 1L feed

3pm Second 1L feed








My veg tent is looking healthy, a little to hot than it should be with the extractor being in there too but hopefully that should be helping the plants drink up and spread those roots looking for moisture.

They look like they have recovered from the topping with no problems and I'm happy with the out come so now it's just training to start after they have grown in a week or two, their still under the small T5 light which is no way big enough but by the looks of it they don't look like there stretching loads inbetween nodes.

By looking at the White Widow Mother plant in flower I plan to put all the Clones on one tent scrog and the 3 Critical at the back of the second tend with the White Widow up front as I imagine it not stretching as much as the Critical.








 
My new feed schedule for next month is:

Water 60ppm
CalMag 150ppm
Great White Mycorrhizal
Orca Mycorrhizal
Greenleaf MegaCrop
Greenleaf Sweet Candy
Botanicare Sweet
Protec Flavoured Flush

I may use Greenleaf Bud Explosion if I can find some reviews on it.
 
Well today I trimmed everything below the screen to hopefully develop better bud growth, topped the pots up with some fresh coco to as a few roots were showing and while they still have another 40+ days left I thought its best to keep them in the best of health, I have decided I am going to try and run a full 14 day flush with the Growtek Strawberry flush, if it doesn't work then atleast I can say I've tried it.









 
Even with a huge fan and filter I'm getting 80% humidity spikes with 1 oscillating fan inside so today I'm going to add more small fans hanging above.

And there's a dehumidifier in there too!


 
Well they are expressing there selves truly, the smell of the Widow and amnesia smells like perfume but more the Widow, the Banger smells Citrusy and the Sweet Skunk smells sweet.

The Sweet Skunk will be done in around a week or two but I'll harvest it when I harvest everything in the tent.

I am going to do a 10 day flush with a solution called Growtek Strawberry flush, I'll give an honest review after a few weeks of curing.
