A few lil updates:
So yesterday my defective driver (I think there’s a loose connection) shutoff maybe five hours before nite time and then didn’t discover it a few hours into this morning so I guess they got one day of flower lighting (or almost like a serious overcast day lol)… hopefully it won’t effect them… altho a consequence of this was a dark environment with 70F and maybe 80% RH … haven’t noticed any PM or anything and they looked still somewhat fine but very slightly less happy…
This may also have to do with the soil finally drying out a bit.
I feel like everything that has been happening has been sort of stress tests in a way, so whatever makes it through might have that extra bonus…
Besides that, after I fixed the light, I bottom watered a full saucer (which isn’t much at all)…
Came back later today, saucers of course empty, top of soil still dry, so I figured it was a good time to water in some top feeding just a hair…
Mixed up a stupid complex light concoction of FPT & FPT (O.A.), aloe, yucca, mycos, and soy aminos… it prob averaged out to about 0.1ml of each of those per about 250ml of water… I then gave maybe 10-15ml top fed… so yeah not much but you might be surprised how much that covers on the top of those lil 3” containers…
Also, decided to bottom water some more, maybe a half saucer of water filled with AMOs (Fish Shit).
Also, took a leaf surface temperature reading, think they could be 2-3F less…
Knowing that, and wanting the plants/soil to transpire a hair more, I moved the RH controller down to *64% (it will avg a bit higher than this, maybe 65/66) from approx 70%, and I moved the temp up to 26C (79F) from 24.5C(77F)…
*nevermind, my setup right now seems to keep it mostly at %70RH because it is not getting that hot in there (because low light height & thus lower light power) and so the exhaust fan don’t come on that much…
I may raise the height and power a bit to see if that helps.
All gut feeling lol, def could all be bad moves, that feeding concoction prob is better in separate feedings but they hadn’t been fed in a bit and kinda just couldn’t say no to those things when they were sitting in front of me
Here’s a pic right after the lighting debacle, right when I gave them the first bottom watering:
Yeah, that SS2 with the messed up leaves, shooting up like crazy lol it’s almost as if it was a totally different cultivar? Maybe it’s a sativa, I think these are all supposed to be indicas but I could be wrong about that.
@JoeCrowe & @ChemicalDependant, I haven’t forgotten about finding out which catnip those are, but I misplaced the package (hopefully not thrown out) and will let you know if I ever find it…
Also, since one of the catnips died, I decided to throw a few Purslane in there just to get some experience with it and maybe toss them in a salad
