Hello everyone! We are at day 32F and I have taking some notes. Until now I think I progress a lot of synthetic fertigation, and I’m getting a god hand to think about the numbers now. The ladies are bulking their flowers and looks beautiful! Probably next run I wouldn’t make any trainings or just a little scrog to fill some holes and run more 2 pots could be a good idea. I have a lot of height space to fill, and did lsts make the plants little bushes. Now I doing 1.5 EC input and the output is 1.8. My quantum bar is around 85%. The VPD is killing me cause here the best days are at 20C degrees and 65% RH, the worst are kind of 15C and 75%. Trying to put a lot of wind inside the tent, but planing to buy a dehumidifier (crying) cause here it’s too expensive, but I don’t thinking there is a better way.
Today I finished my little table, it’s a project of a drain system using just the gravity, without pumps. I live in a small apartment and don’t have too much space, so I think to build this table with some inclination to put some recipient under to the small tubes conect to the plates running until there. I don’t test yet but high expectations, let see. Maybe some adjusting and done. I will share here.
Hey guys! Day 41F here and things doing great. Doing 1,5 Ec input and getting 2 EC output with 9 shots per day. Improving my drain system to things happen without my daily attention. Expecting to get a nice bulking cause in day 50th I’m gonna start a hydric stress and decrease the number of shots to entering in a final flower.
Rather than lowering your rh you could try raising the temps with an oil filled storage heater which will also lower the rh a bit too.
Hey brotha! Thank you for share this tip! I have a oiled heater here, but it’s 1500 watts, so the eletricity bill comes destroying my wallet if I power on it all day. I used to put on the worse days that rh ups to almost 80%. I’m trying to buy a used dehumidifier cause here the prices of a new one reach 300 dollars easy, too expensive for me, I thing a new one with this price not worth it the invest. When I get one, this rh control will be easy, and the eletricity bill does not cry too much. 
Yeah thats the catch, what ever we use the power bill raises, that 1500w heater on low could work, I use mine on a timer for night time only in winter and for lights out rh spike in the summer.
Nice idea bro! My grow it’s small but the runs that I have some space inside the tent, the heater on low could be the best option, but probably on low just inside the tent, if I heat all the lung room (not too big) on the low could does not work well.
Hello from day 47F here. We are approaching the last month before chopp. One of the girls burn a lil bit cause I have a little oscilation about pH, but things are stable here again. All the water and drain system doing ok, I’m very happy abou that. And very grateful until now that this first run doing mineral are doing nice and a lot of knowledge.
I’m conquering a lot of things in my life the last few years, and now I’m a free man of bulk seeds, now my karma, compound, ace seeds arrived, dreaming now about the next run.
Day 53F and we are moving through the last weeks into the mature phase, I’m remove all the P2s shots and rest just 7 shots by day, and decrease the EC to 1 and probably down by half tomorrow. I don’t know if I will have a good yield, the girls have a lot of sugar leafs and this was a question this week, and I approach a little bit the light, I think they responded well. But the best notice it was I bought a dehumidifier to control VPD and have the better way to dry my flowers, and runing the tests now in my lung room. The plants stop burning after the stabilize the pH, it was good to learn about the pH and EC dynamics and read the infos.
Day 58F and the emotional are dual: anxiously to chopp the girls, but feeling this flowers weird. Too leafy and the buds too shorty. But, for the first time doing a synthetic growth, things look well, learned a lot about the dynamic of the salts in coco. Terps are showing more now, I’m trying to understand better if the cold climate take the development late and things gonna be fatter, or these genetics look like this cause it’s bulk seeds. Whatever, I’m really excited to the next run to never more see bulk seeds again and have a lot of beautiful flowers. All the runs have your lessons. And this are the first weekend I’m gonna past away from the grow, let’s see how the watering system works, I’m hope not to met my house under water.
Showing some photos by the first time looking the trichomes. Most transparent, and some going to the milky. Probably the next couple weeks I’m gonna chop her down.
Hey guys! Day 67F here, and I have some points. I saw that bulking phase I have a really bad vpd that freeze the plants and prejudices my yield. All the pistils are already mature and now I start to see some âmbar trichomes, but kind of 2%. Probably I’m gonna chopp her down next week, let see the trichome colors. Sad cause of the yield, but happy of I get a dehumidifier to get a perfect vpd on the next run.
Hey man, don’t overthink it. Plants are looking good!!!
Thanks you bro! Just some small buds. It happens
Hi everyone on my diary! I’m back to finish my report of my LAST BULK RUN, and my first time using synthetic fert, and the first time on this climate that i’m living right now.
With the dehumidifier, the girls dry on the right time, like 7 to 13 days on 55-60% RH, smells good like red fruits and with a small test, really tasty on paper.
I’m almost 2 weeks of cure, and probably I’ll wait more 2 to start consume.
cause of the cold weather in here (0 degrees celsius reaching 10 in the grow tent) colours of the bud looks beautiful, but not developed well and I lost a lot of yield. I already past this awful feeling that things does not going very well, but the harvest happened with a lot of resin and flavour. Now with the dehumidifier, the next run gonna be with a much better VPD and probably no lockout.
The next run already starts in here
And now I’m really excited for my first quality breeder, NO MORE BULK SEEDS IN HERE 
Seeds on the run 
4x Jet Puft by Compound Genetics + 1x 1:1 Blue Orchid CBD by East Fork Genetics
I’m really want to get better on next CBD genetics runs, but this one was fast enough to get started now. My anxiety really get better with CBD oil, my mouth stops to hurt by bruxism, my feelings and mind stay right on place and no more panic attacks. And the best part it’s to stop buying the oil and save money. Think to search some seeds by Hoku or Ace to increase de gens. Like we say in portuguese “who does not have a dog, hunts with a cat”.
The upgrades and differences here from the last run:
- Much better genetics
- Dehumidifier from better VPD and no lockout
- Trichoderma Harzianum + Bacillus Amyloliquefaciens to protect the roots
- Small fan to a better field
This run will be a pheno hunt on the compound’s pack, and probably I’ll repeat again but with clones to see how I gonna keep it. Really excited to feel the menthol, sweet and burned tires terps. And the CBD probably I’m not keep it, cause I’m think to get a better quality gen, but this choice from east fork cultivars it’s because of the concern about the terps too, let see.
Now, some pics from the baby girls:
