Little updateā¦ so far my light rigs been running 10x 3500cct solstrips delivering a modest 230 watts, today Iāve turned on my flower strips, an additional 4 x 2700cct solstrips delivering an extra 190watts to the mix, giving me for my 1m3 (appx) grow cab the magic number of 42w per sq/ftā¦
These are good enough guesstimates as my cab isnāt exactly squareā¦ but it all adds up to a m3 ā¦
Letās see what that does to my starting the stretch girls(?) ā¦ that are pretty tight on the node spacing so far under the 3500āsā¦
EC at 17, PH 5.5, RH 60% +/-, res temp 23 with the extra lights Iām expecting a cab temp of 25 once everything has warmed upā¦ Iām using Vitalink Plant Start for the veg period, the blurb says you canāt overfeedā¦ lol
Iāll be switching to bloom nutes in a week as they will be 5 weeks and as autos they should be flipping themselves about now, 28 days old tomorrowā¦
Happy Sunday fellow OG ers

Cheers @ReikoX
That rings trueā¦ Iāve wrecked s couple of otherwise decent grows by over feedingā¦ Iāll go check the EC later, yesterday it was 17, minus local water reading of 7ā¦ 10, just over half strength, Iām gonna go find the you canāt overfeed page on the vitalink product pages
So my only real idea would be to bang in a few litres of plain water and bring EC below 15ish and LITFAā¦

Letās be sensibleā¦how can I leave it alone if I havnt fiddled @ReikoX the words locking other stuff out made me thinkā¦ Iāve had them running on seedlings rations and they are flowering mature plants , on close inspection the newer growth is yellowy as if underfed ā¦ermmm (Pistles everywhere on all but my runt ) anyway one quick res change later the are now sitting on 1/2 strength Bloom nutes, now hopefully they will actually get the things they need
net EC 9 PH RH & temps all over the place,but my cab will sort that lot out over the next few hoursā¦ I also raised my light to appx 10" above the growth tipsā¦
Now I can apply my favourite product of all and LITFA and catch up with the punisher on Netflix

I was reading University of Floridaās floritaculture website the other day which said that Magnesium deficiencies can cause phosphorous lock out. Have you given them any Cal/Mag or Epsom salts during your grow? You may want to try that.

Hi @Meesh, thanks for your researchā¦ no I hadnāt thought about additives, I was going to watch the plant closely for a few days now Iām on appropriate nutesā¦
@ReikoX Iām looking at some fat fan leaves shading a lot of new growth here, is a bit / lot of defoliation acceptable for autos, Iād love to get rid of the damaged leaves and expose some fresh branches to the lightā¦

For a bit of a change of view i thought id take my webcam for a tour around my growcab, it is an ex demo empty g-tools G400 into which I fitted my shitā¦
A view of the insides and some of the kit I use , I love my BlueLab PH Controller, its not quite set and forget, but its better than doing it manuallyā¦

One of my favourite viewsā¦ 
The sonoff there runs the lights a fan the Bluelab ā¦ the mains feed in is split with the Wagos to run the other sonoffs in the cab powering all the other bits
and a handy heater running on a thermaostatic plug powered by a TH16 temperature sensitive switchā¦ a safety feature as i have the heater only on in a range within a range based on x 2 sensors, not just oneā¦

Robin, you can trim autos. Go easy on them though, stress will reduce yield. I often just tuck leaves under the canopy, the plant usually āeatsā any leaves that are not producing. Remember the leaves are the plantsā solar panels not the buds.
