Do you ever run lower? Upstairs I’m happy to have 18-19c overnight. In the tent the dew point messes with it and Rh can shoot up with low temps. Always tweaking it.

It all depends on the season and what I'm able to achieve in the growing situation I'm in. Ideally I try to have a 10C gap between lights on and out and never really go below 18C during lights out. Current situation is far from ideal but I make it work with what I got.

It's more tops underneath and I need to secure some of the tops that didn't reach the up to the second net. Maybe I'll try to lower it slightly. She has the structure and sturdy growth and filled enough so I will do partial harvest on her.Looks like more popping through.
This is live - left the local time in shot. 77.4% is most recent but its been awesome at mid 50’s?! Temp is fine - it runs at 28-29c’ with lights on. 30c be better because of the Co2. Three inline fans (one in, one out and the piped AC and two tent fans. Just trusting that when it does hit 18c and 80% Rh just around sunrise the airflow is enough to offset some risk.
I bet they're some solid nugs! They definitely look it and still not done yet. Pistols look like she could do another month
400ppm / 0.8 EC in, 1000ppm / 2.0 EC out.
pH 7.0 in, pH 6.15 out.
26C / 79F 45-50% RH

Rock hard! I tried some early last night and it was potent this early on. She definitely has weeks to go and just started to get that plump pom pom Afghani structure!I bet they're some solid nugs! They definitely look it and still not done yet. Pistols look like she could do another month
I probably start harvesting 11 weeks from flip and then let her go for another 2 weeks. Only 48 days in flower yet, end of 7th week so 3 weeks left at least.

Out the tap 63ppm / 0.126EC! Then I add potassium silicate to ~240µs / 120ppm / 0.24 EC. That's roughly 30ppm elemental Silicon in solution. Then I add the stock solution to 500ppm / 1.0 EC @ pH 7.0. I don't have to do any pH adjustments at this stage.
Now you can see more of the tops.
Added some gardening wire to some of the floppy tops. Thought I had more at home, getting more tomorrow.
500ppm / 1.0 EC in, 950ppm / 1.9 EC out.
pH 7.0 in, pH 6.15 out.
That above shot shows all the bud you have hiding.
have you been spraying anything ?
there looks to be some spray droplets dried, or possible pm. i'm guessing you were spraying something as i can't figure you for missing pm signs.

I don't think that looks like pm? No sprays and that's still damage from thrips bud! Not many left now though! They eat mostly on the oldest leaves. I only ever had pm on cuttings I got from outside source. It's been a non existent problem growing healthy plants with high dose silicate and oxidizer.
pm is typically seen as bigger patches of white dust/speckles. This is small shiny patches from thrip damage/shit.

Bought some more gardening wire and moved, secured and found some floppy tops underneath that needed to be fastened to the net.
I need to make a Spinning SCROG (TM - Jon) Hope I can get close to the neatness of your work!

Crowded on the tent floor! Changed direction on the extra carbon filter and move the dehumidifier inside the tent. Double air filtration.
800ppm / 1.6 EC in, 1100ppm / 2.2 EC out.
pH 7.0 in, pH 6.15 out.
25C / 77F, 37-42% RH.

Day 51 in flower. She's finishing up alright! ppm / EC is ramping up so lowered feed all the way down to 300ppm / 0.6 EC with very little runoff (10-15%). pH of input is is somewhere 7.0-7.3.
9 more days and I'll start chopping, about 70 days from flip.
Looks great as usual.

Spotted some start of mold today so I cut two tops down and saved 90% of it. If you spot it early you're good!
Did some changes in the tent. Lowered total wattage to the light down to 400w and
lowered the led fixture maybe one feet. It's really humid locally (90-100%) and I've been struggling to keep humidity down even with dehumidifier going full power all day.
I decided to cut the intake air and run totally passive. I'm also moving the humidifier back to the lung room to make it easier to empty. I had to try to see if I did any difference and the 3% lowering in RH is not worth the extra heat.

Day 59 since flip! I increased silicate up to 50ppm residual to combat the bud rot. I have'nt seen any new since I increased from 30ppm.
In the middle picture you can see a top that's been cut off and the growth under keep growing. I tried some early today and it's way more potent than I expected. I'm happy she's rooted and kept for the future. Looking forward to running her again during winter months with no moisture in the air.

Day 61 since flip. Start of last week before chop start! She's swelling up nicely and no more mold in sight. No intake air, higher silicate and lower humidity locally helps but I still empty 3 gallons daily from the dehumidifier.
400ppm / 0.8 EC in, 1050ppm / 2.1EC out.
pH 6.5 in, pH 6.2 out.
Good looking flowers. How many different ways are you planning on consuming it?
