**** Wed 01 Jan 2020 **** New week and a new year. Got a bit of yellowing on some leaves - this roughly corresponds to when I was adding 7-7-7 feed This is much more apparent on the "Black" plant on the left, which had a big growth spurt at this time For now they are on plain water at PH 7 They are still on 24 hour light - apparently this can add to nutrient burn too I do have some PH Down (Phosphoric acid 25%) so wondering if I should try dropping the PH a bit All the same, the buds seem to be building up **** Thu 2 Jan **** Yellowing doesn't seem to be getting any worse, and the main buds are slowly getting bigger and frostier Some of the lower buds don't look bad either Should I defoliate a little to get more light to the buds? **** Sat 4 Jan 2020 - day 53 from seed **** Despite my best efforts to kill them off, these two brave girls insist on growing See today's pics - "Black" on the right keeps getting bigger - "Red" is just all bud underneath Can really see how the yellowing (nitrogen tox?) has affected one plant more than the other So glad I didn't just do one plant Have to give these girls some respect! **** Sun 5 Jan - day 54 **** Buds slowly getting frostier They've been flushed and on plain water for almost a week I suspect my initial soil (clover compost) was a bit rich + transplanting + low humidity + tiny amounts of 7-7-7 = stunted plants Keen to get these finished and start over **** Mon 6 Jan - day 55 **** Must confess I snipped off a popcorn bud from Red the other day - this was right down by the base root and was never going to see any light Bud was tiny, just a few pistils and very few trichomes Dried for 24 hours in a tin on a radiator, wasn't expecting much, smelled like damp hay Actually tasted pretty good - like grass used to years ago Damned stuff is ridiculously strong - head buzzing all night - could hardly get to sleep Very surprised! Posted a couple of pics of main buds - there are lots of side buds too Red is definitely further along, but Black is going to out produce her Apart from the yellow tips they seem fine Now curious as to how they'll do over the next 2 weeks **** Tue 7 Jan - day 56 **** If you compare today's pic with a week ago, there's just a little growth Buds do seem to be fattening up though Interesting how the "Black" plant is much more affected by yellowing than "Red" That's week 8 done lets see what happens next week

I'm wondering what light to get - I have a small tent (same as growdiaries.com/diaries/21875-first-time-blueberry-autoflower) At the moment they're in the house When they start to smell the tent is going to have to go in the garage where it gets pretty cold 😎

Ok let me understand this since you are constrained on character count. Dont buy a light to heat the tent just yet. You need a light for UP to 3x3 I am with Grey Wolf on that TS-1000, have one in a 2.5 ft veg tent and love it. Excellent full spectrum light, Migrow did a review on youtube recently IIRC. You will need enough head space for @20 inches of distance from plants. Price is just unreal good. Now lets keep those plants indoors. Seriously get a carbon filter and a 4 inch extraction fan. pull the air out clean it and just dump it in the house it will reduce your heating bill and you will smell no more than venting outside. It works I am using exactly that. That is also very difficult to impossible to detect from outside the home or even another room. In summer you may have to deal with heat but hell who doesnt :)

Humidity in the tent - is it a problem? Outside the tent in the garage it's 7° C (45° F) and 70% RH Inside the tent (with 800 W heating), it's nice 25° C, but 20% RH I can bump it up with wet towels/spray Any other growers with similar circumstances / advice?

hey there growmie, the relationship between humidity and temperature is called VPD (vapor pressure deficit) and it regulates the growth rate of the plant. Especially in veg and at the seedling stage it's important. The difference will be huge. At the seedling stage you really dont need to water that much but you can put a glass bowl or dome on top of the seedling, this will help the seedling actually create its own atmosphere. Probably after a few days it will be 70/80 RH in the glass dome which is a good thing the first 2-3 weeks. at different stages in growth you'll need different temp/humidity ratios, just check the VPD charts and you'll know what's the best conditions for you. Great work getting the temperature down to 25°C though ! Hope this helps ! 🚀

I don't have a PH meter, just some test strips. Can anyone recommend an inexpensive meter I can get in the UK? There's a bit of yellowing on some leaves (see my diary entry on week 8) Buds seem to be developing a bit slow Should I switch from 24 hr to 20/4 or 18/6 ?

I would avoid pH meters if possible. Technically you have to calibrate your meter before every use if you want to be 100% sure it will give an accurate reading. I use the GHE ph test kit drops. The colors are very clear and much easier to read than strips. You will get accurate results every time. And yes I would cut your light back to 18 hours. I ran a grow 24 the entire time and the light intensity starts to take a toll on the leaves. It also looks like you are a little heavy on the nutrients so I would back off of them a little. It is a good idea to give 2 plain waterings in between every feed in soil. Good luck!
