KC's first inside grow 2023

Grow Cycle
,
1

The Blue Dream plant growing in a 3lb bag is 34 days old now.

I started nutrients today November 3, 2023:
15 ml TPS 1 One
1/8 tsp TPS Billions
The temp in the closet is: 80 degrees
Rh is: 32%

I have a little heater in there as well as a humidifier and a fan. None of them are blowing directly on the plant.

I am running the VS1000 light at 75% 20/4 as recommended by ILGM.com.

Incidentally, ILGM.com is where I bought my seeds from.

There’s a few pictures below that I just took.

Please give me any feedback that can possibly improve my set up. This is my first inside grow.

Looking good Growmie, are you using a PH and TDS pen to check the input PH and PPMs as well as the run off of these 2 :love_you_gesture:

You will like Blue Dream. It produces a measure of CBD which has the effect of taking the edginess off the THC qualities. Your profile mentioned you had panic attacks from weed when younger and this strain should be good to help prevent that. Even better if you let it mature longer before harvest and develop some amber in the trichomes to become more relaxing.
Set up wise you could let the fan blow on the plant. A little wind helps strengthen the branches. Definitely don’t aim the heater at it. The humidifier is ok until flowering. You will want it drier when its buds get larger so they don’t develop mold.

@OGIncognito @PhatPat @Spiney_norman @Meloco1980

Here she is at 56 days old or 8 weeks.

How much light should she be receiving at this stage?

Do you have a meter Growmie and what’s your lighting schedule? :love_you_gesture:

12

I have photon. I will test it a little later because it’s night time for my auto.

Current lighting schedule is 10/14 (just changed it yesterday). It’s been a slow change though.

Also, she seems to be slowing down growth wise and the buds are getting thicker now.

She’s very thirsty as well. 1 gal in the morning and 1/2 gal at night.

13

IMO I would say around 700-800 PPFD or 40 DLI
Looking good so far

14

Thank you! This is my first indoor grow.

15

Agree with @spankyjr1, mid flower a little higher :love_you_gesture:

16

Thanks :blush:

17

From/to?

18

Somewhere along the line, someone recommended I change the lighting schedule to 10/14. After reading further, I have changed the lights back to 20/4 (2 days ago)

I read leaving the lights on longer during flowering enhances the buds.

Do you know which way is supposed to go?
Both recommendations state the benefit is increased buds. :woman_shrugging:

19

Autos- 18/6
Photos- 12/12 simulates the fall day light hour cycle
As far as i understand it all anyway.

18/6 it is! Thanks!
