New pics coming soon; I actually have a day off and plan to do some maintenance, but here's what's going on so far.
Setup recap: mystery bagseed, both plants in 2gal smart pots and FFOF soil with Grow Big on a normal feeding schedule. I have an actual grow tent now; on the small side (2x2x3 is the largest that would fit anywhere) with two 24w (wall draw) LED bulbs.
Both plants had some problems a week or so ago; I thought I saw signs of spidermites O_o but started leaf treatments immediately and so far things look good....they were in the kitchen for a few days and we have fruit flies so it could have been that. I'm continuing to treat the leaves just in case. The older plant that I really didn't start training until it was too late (Arthur) lost quite a few leaves from the ordeal and seemed like a goner but somehow bounced back--still scraggly but that can't be helped. The younger one (Audrey) also had/has some leaf issues but did much better despite also having mite-like activity...at least I'm not seeing new damage and neither of them are dropping any more leaves. Right now I'm trying to weight down Arthur's bigger branches (twist ties and pebbles/Legos).
How much airflow is too much for that size tent? I have a Vornado fan on low blowing in through the slightly open door, and it looks like there might be some localized wind burn. I also have a 4" desk fan I could hang inside, but am thinking that might be too much as well in that space.
The tent itself is in a corner; right now I have my wires running through the rear port and the top one is left clear for a passive exhaust. I plan to switch to a flowering schedule next week--my original plan was to harvest close to Christmas; I question my roommate's ability to properly take care of them when I'm on vacation but now that schedule may be a bit optimistic.
