wHEN WILL IT BE TIME TO FEED AT 20%

No Title

New photos look healthy? Root temp. 72 above. Temp at canopy level 74 above. RH 26% and holding steady. With luck I will be cleared for take off by Christmas. I notice in the bud photo a leaf just below and to the left the leaf that purple in the center where the leaf stem meets the leaf. The main stem is healthy green I understand purple could be normal with this plant. In either case I am starting to think this grow may work out ok. Tomorrow the big res. flush and FLOWER feed!!!!!!!

I would not wish my plants to beg. I went ahead and fed them today! complete res. change as well as bulb change!. As long as the new bulb fires up we should be ok. Checked all ducting an all is secure. cleaned all glass in cool tube I will fire up new bulb in 1 hour. I will use the hour to observe the newly fed plants for any adverse affects!. Since the light is out I misted my plants with distilled PHed water (knock any dust from my leafs. . I will fire up bulb when leaf dry's out good.

Today, I only added 1 gal. PHed water I guess the temps. during the day have been dropping a bit so the plant used less water I guess. Anyway the plant is still kicking and the flower sights look a little taller, but I suppose I could be imagining it. Temp at root zone 73 above. Root ball now fills Res. 50% (this plant growth rate is insane) Tent temp. at canopy level 74 above and breezy!. The biggest and tallest flower sights sway in the fan made wind much like like palm trees in Jamaica. LOL RH 26% and holding strong. New HPS bulb held out the first night without trouble. (should I buy a lotto ticket?). The HPS light is softer to my eyes why is that?. The HPS bulb seems also to be running slightly cooler (about 20 degrees) and brighter then the MH bulb did. Am I imagining things again? I say my MH run hotter. Why? If both bulbs are 600 watt then they both consume the same amount of power. However the MH puts out less light (lumens). Whatever power is not converted to light is going to be wasted as heat. Hence MH wastes more power as heat than HPS. Of coerce as you can tell by my forum name on the right{ I dontknownuttin.

Hello friend. This is the first I have posted on this thread. Just skimmed through the 200+ posts. Your plants have made an amazing journey since those first pics of seedlings. Keep up the good work.

P.S. I did see your post that you do all this work with only one working arm. Amazing, a proud papa you should be for sure!!
 
Today, I added 1 gal. pre mix newts and 1 gal. PHed water only. Plant looks good and is still alive. flower sights growing ok. temp.at roots 73 above. Tent temp. at canopy level 74 above. RH25% and holding.They are getting more thirsty again. I sure hope my small grow works out. So far I seem to be lucky no bugs or mold or any other thing.
