Welcome to the new Vivosun Auto Oasis! For this grow journal, I'll continue to follow Emmy through harvest. I'll be starting a perpetual journal for this tent soon!

Here is Emmy in her new home, looking small and lonely.

Emmy (Green Crack Auto) Day# 51 - All alone in the Vivosun Auto Oasis

Not for long, though. She already has company in there. After setting up the tent yesterday and installing the new AeroLight SE, at 4:20pm I started a new seed, a FastBuds Gelato Auto. I've set the AeroLight SE to start in seedling mode on Tuesday. Until then, the seed is at > 95% RH under the dome with the @VIVOSUN heat mat set to 78f.

The Vivosun Auto Oasis - Emmy is getting company

I checked Emmy's AeroLight before and after the move and tried to keep it the same, about 12.5" away.

She didn't drink quite as much yesterday as she has been. Since I shut down the VSF6450 in the Bud Factory, it's been a little cooler in the basement. Hopefully the new light and the heatmat will add a little more heat to the tent. She's still drinking over 1.5L/day and is still going strong!

You made that look easy BMan! Sweet new tent!

Thanks SO.

Love that talk!

 

[InTheShed]

Emmy is looking terrific if lonely in that huge beast of a tent! Seems like a waste to grow flat-trained autos with all that height in there though...I was thinking of something more like a pair of Malawis.

It looks huge next to the Playpen.

Size matters!

It does leave me a lot of room to play around. For now it'll just be the two AeroLights and two autos. I need to figure out how to take advantage of the vertical space, though.

Size matters!

Weekly Temperatures

Vivosun Auto Oasis Temps 20230222.jpg

Vivosun Auto Oasis Temps Feb 22 2023

The temperatures in the basement dipped a couple of degrees when the Bud Factory (my other tent) went offline. The VPD is still staying in the perfect range, though. I bumped the second AeroLight up to 100% today and backed it away from the seedling dome. It adds more overall light to the tent, and looks like it added a couple of degrees as well.

Emmy had slowed down drinking with the lower temps, down to 1.4L/day. She was back up to 1.7L today and finished her bucket of week# 1-4 nutes. It's good timing, because Remo's week# 5 nutes start increasing P&K and decreasing N. I'll let her res go dry, then give her 2L of water to flush out any salts. Then I'll mix up a weeks worth (2.5-3g) of week# 5 nutes for the next week. Week#6 schedule decreases N further, and stays the same through harvest/flush.

On her fourth week of flower, it looks like she's almost done stretching. She's pretty bushy right now and needs to be cleaned up a bit, especially in the middle and on the bottom. I took a handful today, and I'll continue for the next couple of days. I'm trying to make sure anything I want to keep is getting light, and everything else is removed. I'm trying not to get too sticky, but that's getting harder and harder

Emmy is thriving in the new tent. Turning the second AeroLight to 100% has is up to 78-80f. With all the room, I've started rotating her 1/4 turn every day, trying to even up the light and wind as much as possible.

I skipped her feeding yesterday and this morning the res was dry. I added 2L of plain well water, hoping a drink of fresh water helps wash away some accumulated salts. Tomorrow, she moves to week# 5 Remo nutrients. She needs all the food she can get to bulk up those buds!

Have a great weekend everyone and enjoy this freaky weather if you can!

#VIVOSUN #SmartGrowSystem #LoveWhatYouGrow

 

[InTheShed]

Freaky weather indeed...days of rain and hail and a friend sent me a video of snow falling in Culver City! In the low 40s now and it's only 9:45pm. Los Angeles weather.

Emmy is looking lovely with buds stacking everywhere. She's loving everything you're doing in there.

And while it's freezing in LA, it was 80f here. Then 32f two days later

Emmy is looking lovely with buds stacking everywhere. She's loving everything you're doing in there.

Thanks, she sure is. I think I have another 100+ day auto here, and I'm excited to see how much green crack bud she can pack on!

On Saturday, Emmy had finished her 2L of plain water and her res was empty again. So I mixed up 3 gallons of week# 5 @Remo Nutrients for her. Week# 6 changes to eliminate the Manifical (3-0-0), and stays the same for the rest of the grow.

Emmy Grow Tracker 2/27/23

In her 5th week of flower, Emmy has a LOT of bud sites that need filling in. She has a couple of orange pistils, but it's mostly still white in there. I'm keeping her at 1.2 VPD for optimal growing conditions in the @VIVOSUN SGS. With two AeroLights, the AeroWave E6, and the Vivosun Air Circulator she has lots of airflow and plenty of ventilation, so I'm not worried about any issues with the increased RH in early flower (@ 62%).

Emmy is coated in trics and the smell is increasing. One minute I'll smell mango, then it's like armpits. It's sweet and skunky and strangely enticing. I don't have a filter on this tent, so we'll see how smelly she can get.

The @VIVOSUN AeroLight is at 100% in Flower mode, and is about 12" from the canopy. She's starting to fill in those bud sites nicely, and I can't wait to see her in a few weeks. I'm hoping for another 100 day lady!

I didn't even notice that until you pointed it out.

And foxtails, see?

And apparently these are both signs of light stress. Do you think i need to raise my light?

 

[InTheShed]

Could be genetic. If it's only happening on the uppers it might be a good idea to raise the light an inch or two.

looks cool with the tri-leaves.

I'd stay since it appears to be healthy. And what Shed said. In the 600's ppfd. That's so awesome btw for that input draw!

I looked her over really well and I saw a couple of 5-finger leaves (with really small lower fingers), but most are 3-fingers on the top and bottom. I raised the light about 1/2" today, she's still at 45-50DLI.

looks cool with the tri-leaves.

It does look cool, and as a bonus it helps with light and air penetration. Who needs all those pesky fingers in the way?

I'd stay since it appears to be healthy. And what Shed said. In the 600's ppfd. That's so awesome btw for that input draw!

Completely agree. I'm just going to chalk it up to freaky auto genetics and move on. She's still looking fantastic and frosty and fattening up daily
