Hi folks.
This is my second attempt. I mentioned the first one here: Cheapest To Ugliest: Homemade Light
And another topic about my attempt to germinate slightly old seeds: 18 month old seeds
Strain: Blueberry Auto
Tent: 100cm(W)x140cm(H)x50cm(D) (Actually a cloth closet)
Medium: Regular cheap potting mix
Light: 8x23W cfl and 200W brandless diy led
Fertilizer: Cheap liquid fertilizers (Veg: N 8%, P 3%, K 7%, Mg 2% - Flowering: N 5%, P 9%, K 5%)
First days:
Day 8:
Day 13:
Day 17 (Today):
As you can see first week i used my weird, uncanny led light:
However, later on, I decided to use cfl as I didn't trust it.
I did something like this:
There are 8 sockets, I am using 4 of them for now. I'm considering using all 8 of them during the flowering phase and also running the led (if I can keep the heat under control). When the light is on, the temperature is up to 26 degrees Celsius without any cooler. I'm using 20/4.
I made something like this for hot days. It managed to keep the temperature 3 degrees low for 4 hours:
Some leaves have very light yellowing on the edges. Light burn? At the peak there is something similar to the pistils, is this normal on the 17th day?
Thank you for any help you can offer.
