#12 seems like she could be a potential clone mother depending on how flowering turns out.
Everything looks great!

thanks.I am really trying to stay on top of my numbers here and today was a strange one. Especially with the nute mix testing right where it should be. Unless there was some sort of contamination in the runoff tray. I use a separate set of trays and pot elevators to water with. I just don’t know. 2900 seems impossible. And I am not just dumping cap fulls of food into the jugs. Even though I know how much a cap full equals. I am using syringes to measure each nutrient by the ml separately.
ALSO. lol. today was the second day in a row I caught a grass hopper in the grow room. Yesterday I caught a full grow grasshopper trying to get into the grow. today I caught a baby hopping around on the floor.

It could possibly be your ppm meter or maybe do you think you had the settings on EC instead of ppm?
yeah be careful with those grasshoppers lol good luck! Cant wait for when they all start showing pistils and forming buds

oh I have pistils. ! I just havent taken any pictures. lol I forgot. I got caught up with my numbers.
being on ec is the only logical explanation besides tray contamination. . However I tested with another meter. ( i thought)
Sunday’s I clean my tent and trays (spray it down with a little peroxide and water mix ) Swap out the carbon filter’s pre-filter. And do my weekly IPM

same here . these all get that once a week. However the two trays I use for watering only in the potting/watering work table area have been sitting out for a few days. Not dirty mind you. Thinking about it though there is nothing to get on them that would cause that. I run a pretty clean operation. not even residue from last watering would have drove them up that high and everything gets washed off. So it’s a mystery!

About a week ago I invested in cal solution and storage solution for my meters. Next grow I will get new high end meters

you have to have that stuff. I have 3mcl storage solution a big bottle and calibration fluids. My packup to my ph60 just came yesterday. ph20. I should probably by a non shitty ppm/ec meter. I have 2 $8 ones.

I was looking at those last night . great idea! todays watering sucked . The space I have to take the front ones to the watering table is getting to narrow. plants 12 is about to stay put for good in a day or two.

I JUST purchased it. Its going to help you water while standing or even just sitting on a chair for the ones who are in the back if theyre too far, especially with that 56.5 cm watering wand and you can wear it on your back by securing it on with shoulder straps and walking around with it when youre switching between tents. very convenient. It should be here in about a week for me

luckily the 4x8 has doors on the front and back. the 4x4 has 3 doors. I am looking at ways to suck up water from run off and flushes also. probably a small pump. can put in the trays.
i wonder how the nozzles work with that?can you take them off to get a nice stream?>
I just added two 9" fans and am looking to upload two videos showing how much they make the leaves move and ask if it is to much. still looking for the safest way to share a link to that.

Yeah that makes things easier, My 3x3 will be against a wall so I wont be able to open all the way around BUT i could always try pushing it a little bit towards the outside and just open it all around. I’ll have to wait until i move in and check out my new bedroom layout again.
As long as they’re gently flickering they’ll be alright. If it seems like its a hurricane in there then its time to bring the speed down a little bit. Picture them vibrating, thats how you want them to be.
Not really sure about the nozzles but I can let you know once I get it.
Also you can use a vacuum for the run off, Bill Ward uses that and its very fast and efficient

I added two more 9" fans to my tent for a total of 5, 3 down low and two up high. can you folks look at this and tell me if this is to much on the leaves?

Looks fine to me, if anything Id bring the fan a teeny tiny bit down in the first video. If its too much against your skin that it dries it out completely, then it wont be good for her

the undercarriage fan. Yep thats what I was thinking also. the way the fan clicks into place is kinda suck but ill shoot it off the wall and see how it looks.

Yeah thats what i usually do when my fans are too strong, just shoot em off the wall

Yeah, got to be suspicious of the numbers at times, when I’m testing runoff, I make sure to start with a very clean tray, nothing will spike your numbers like a dirty tray. I also try to capture the last bit of runoff, not when it first starts running off.
