The dehumidifier has a continuous drain function.
water ppm 0, pH 7.5. It would get sucked into the res, it’s basically distilled water. 7.5 ph is perfect For the res, as it has tendency to drop ph.

in 6 hours, it has collected 15 litres of water.

Almost done with week 7, almost 10% of my pistil are turning brown.
dehumidifier working wonders; u can see the change in humidity/VPD before and after

I removed all the water from my res today. Started with the last mix. “Ripening”

Usually during a res change i stop watering for 24 hours.
Until i settle my pH, then i start watering again.
This time i only added half the flora nectar and floricious plus. Il add the other half in 12 hours. Hopefully that should decrease the amount of foam happening.

I’ll remain on this schedule for the next 1-2 weeks; depending on progress; then 1 week of flush with flroakleen
Tent smells amazing.

Till next time

Buds ripening very well. Pistils at 40% brown.
Trichomes look more cloudy then clear.
My plan is to start flushing starting tmrw for a week; then start harvesting.

On another note; my water consumption was almost 65-70 litres a week. After continuously draining the dehumidifier into the reservoir, I have only added 10 litres this week. The rest was from the dehumidifier.

ppm 1300-1400.
pH 6.0 -6.1
Temperature 25 - 28.
Humidity 40-50%

——————————
Started harvesting today.
Laughing Buddha has always been a favourite of mine.
75-80% sativa. The nugs are sweet and sticky. Very frosty.

My 4 drying racks got full

I’ll let these dry for the next 3-5 days, then go for a second harvest session

This is the layer remaining. Between the 2 nets. The leaves are still greenish. So I’ll just continue flushing till it yellows a bit more.
Till next time
