Hello friends!
I have read many grow journals and decided to give a try and start my journal here also.
For my small grows i'm using stealth cabinet (mini closet in my closet
)with inside space 40/38/101 cm, 12 cfl bulb setup and dwc setup. Ventilation system: TD Silent 160/100 for extraction and 20cm PC cooler for air input.
DWC setup contains of 15l tank, which holds 10l of nutrient solution, air pump, water pump and 2 air stones.
Extraction fan is controlled by mobile remote control, also every CFL in setup has option to work straight from light timer or turn on from same timer but with relay, controlled by extraction fan power. For veg i'm using 12 6500K 15W cfl bulbs, for bloom will use 12 2700K 23W bulbs, or maybe some mixed spectrum, will see when the time comes. Temperature in the box is about +6'C to ambient temperature (with 180W cfl), does not exceed 30'C for now.
This helps me to quickly turn off noisy fan and few bulbs, to not overheat my little plant, when stealth mode is suddenly needed
Also i have made a small remote control setup for all fans, air pump, etc. for more comfortable control of growbox, straight from my table
I willl not write much about every equipment item i'm using, if there will be any questions - do not hesistate to ask!
So, back to main thing - little plant we all love
Plant is from unknown seed, this is female seed i received as gift, but do not know what is the strain of it. This is my third grow, so i will try to avoid mistakes that i made before and make my little plant happy
Nutes i'm using: full Cellmax complex for hard water, Superthrive, Hesi supervit, GHE mineral magic, GHE diamond nectar, Plagron vita race once a week and magnium sulphate daily spray for leaves. My little plant is loving it! PH is maintained between 5.7-6.4, ppm is not monitored, as i am using tap water and ppm is always high.
So, let's start from the begining.
Day 3
Plant is getting plain tap water + supervit + diamond nectar
Day 5
Day 10
Plant is getting first nutes by Cellmax schedule + diamond nectar + drop of supervit and superthrive
Day 12
Plant was topped.
Root system
Day 14
Day 16
Plant was defoliated.
Day 18
Nutes change - all the same, but slightly stronger
Day 21
Plant has fully recovered from defoliation, seems healthy and happy.
Few leaves were removed, to give light to all future colas.
That is it for now

Tomorrow i'll do second serious defoliation (tomorrow is good day for that by moon calendar) and give my plant another 7-10 days to veg before switching 12/12.
