Day 12

 Looks like the ladies is doing good , Did the first feeding

400PPm grow , cal/mag

PH:5.8 

Happy Friday every one 

I need some advice , I tested my CO2 in my tent and its was very low 350PPM -400PPM . Got on the net and did some research on way to bump up the co2 concentration  in you garden . So long story short I decided to go with the fermentation method ( yeast and sugar ) to my surprise it would quite well for a day or two bumping the PPM up to 1000 , So this method is not very practical in the long term as it on lasts about 48 hours or so. 

is there better methods of using fermentation or is the only way a co2 cylinder?  

They are growing fast and strong  when are you going to trance plant

The ladies is looking very healthy and growing fast  they and starting to look like winners

Chamberlains sells them about 30 bucks each  , As for the Leds and components got them for them Mouser , rs components , Iced led 

But would honestly say its not worth it to buy them like that any more you would be far better off buying a Quantum board or 2 and some meanwell drivers 

Good luck

Looking good

For the seeding and vegetative stage, I use the following supplements:

Fabric Pots filled with a mixture of Coco Peak, Perlite and Vermiculite

Grow Medium is buffered with Calcium and pH of 6.2

Grow Medium had been amended with Fulvic Acid, Humic Acid and Kelp Extract.

Green House Feeding Grow will be used during the Veg-stage for the basic NPK and micronutrients.

pH Pen / Tester calibrated before use

PPM Pen / Tester calibrated before use.

Light source LED: Specs:

·         CREE CXB 3590, 3500K x3, 4000K x 3

·         Meanwell HLG – 240 – 1400B Driver x 2

·         Driver is dimmable 23W to 586W

VPD will controlled by the following:

·         Humidifier will be used to control humidity.

·         Fan will be used to create airflow and control leave temperature ·         

Hygrometer will be used to ensure humidity and temperature is correct and VPD can be calculated.

They will go into the tent tomorrow , getting everything ready for them 

The ladies popped 

So this is Day 1 

After the soak I have planted them in a seed starter mix 

I have started with a 12 hour soak in Humic acid and Kelp (until the sink to the bottom)
