First up, Dante’s and coffee! Yes indeed, that’s a nice way to start Sunday.
For me, it was a cappuccino and Hindu Kush!
Fabulous!!!
That was my first run Summer 23 and it still tastes and hits well.
Oh my friend, 16 degrees is already nearing the dormant phase for soil life.
But it’s always good when such minor things can still be quickly found and corrected.
I’ve already taken care of the clones.
Clone 1 was still in the moisture range, but in the lower end, so today it only got 500 ml into the soil to simply keep the moisture content in a good range.
Not too wet and not too dry. Just trying to stay in the middle.
For both, the trays were also empty and dry, even though they were only watered yesterday.
And so I gave each tray another 750 ml.
If they are empty in the afternoon, I can add more.
Here, the 4 cm clay pebble layer works great. They absorb what they need in addition to what’s still in the soil.
Many shoots have stretched up again at the edge of the Scrog.
That’s because the light intensity decreases at the edges.
I think today, day 13, the Stretch is slowly coming to an end. Since it started with 14 hours of light, they’ve already had a good 15 days of Stretch.
I quickly carried out the light defoliation that was planned for tomorrow today,
and so they have a few more days of rest until Lollipopping comes.
It’s going to take a lot of patience to manage the dense undergrowth beneath the Scrog. I’ve now switched on a small fan in the lower area of the Scrog, directed towards the soil, to provide air circulation down below.
On the small area, you only see flower sites now. Beautiful so far.
Later, I’ll check on things in the larger tent and put some water back into the pots. Here, I split the water amount today by giving half yesterday.
This way I avoid too much water and too much wetness at once.
Example Jamaican; today it’s back to 50% soil moisture where it was yesterday before the 1.2 liters of compost tea.
It annoys me that I don’t have this clay pebble layer in the pots here.
So I always have to pay attention when I water from below that it gets absorbed and doesn’t sit in the tray for too long, because then the roots would be directly in it.
But it works by giving small portions from below.
But since it’s still early and there’s time, I’m going out with Gizmo first.
Enjoy the day and many greetings from Paule
