D33jW Week 1 Update 🌱 Conditions: 🌞 Temp: 28°C 💦 RH: 80% 💥 PPFD: 200 µmol/m²/s 🌬️ VPD: ~0.7–0.8 kPa 🌱 Observations: Watering with small amounts works very well – roots actively search for moisture and expand quickly without the risk of overwatering the medium. It's important to observe the leaves to ensure they maintain a healthy structure: they should be firm and lying flat. Leaf curling or twisting can be a sign of too much stress (such as excessive PPFD, incorrect VPD, or overwatering). Let’s keep pushing 🙌

D33jW 📅 Week 2 – Day 14 🌞 Temp: 27–28°C 💦 RH: 75–80% 💥 PPFD: 250–300 µmol/m²/s 🌬️ VPD: ~0.9–1.0 kPa 🌱 Observations: The plants are growing evenly and vigorously, each already showing 4–5 developing side shoots. It's a perfect moment to start planning upcoming training and selecting the main tops for SCROG. Roots have begun to appear at the bottom of the pots — a great sign of a strong and active root system. 💧 Watering: This week I increased the watering volume slightly. One of the waterings included a bottom soak + light run-off. The soil still has enough nutrients, so no additional feeding yet. 🧠 Crop Steering TIP: I’m still watering precisely and conservatively — only when the pots feel noticeably lighter. This week I slightly raised the VPD (to 0.9–1.0) to encourage more vigorous, controlled growth. Stay tuned – and keep growing 🌱
