right I’m currently on day 20 of veg

I have 1 light atm dimmed all the way down because they’re bright bright.

CONTROL:I keep my temps at 26°C and humidity 75% Which I decided on based on the vapour pressure deficate (VPD) table.

WATERING: I lightly water the pots with about 50ml of water phd to 6.8 every couple days, the water I use has been stored in a flexi tank with air pump consistently on. Once a week I have been feeding them a tea consisting of 1 cup of worm castings, 5tsp black strap mollasus and 1tsp of great white mycorrhizal.

PROBLEMS: I’ve had a few problems, firstly my lights were to high for the first few days and plants were stretching I amended this issue by lowering the lights to 1meter away, they have since reacted and beefed up a bit.

also had an issue with humidifier cutting out due to kink in the piper that feeds into it from the tank so humidity dropped to 30% for almost a full day on 2 separate occasions I’ve since DIYd a bucket which I have hooked up to it now which is a lot closer.

ive put a lot of information in to this but I feel it’s a diary so be it
:)
I’ve had a lot of help as well which is worth mentioning I’m trying to understand why I’m doing the things I’ve been told to do so I have a greater understanding not just blindly following instructions, I’m really enjoying the grow so far and I’m keen to learn more any questions/ comments or input is welcomed,

thanks for reading
:)
