3.3.2026 – Another week has passed and the seedlings have officially moved into the vegetative phase. On Tuesday I gave them Terra Vega for the first time and bent them down. Fuck, I Missed with BG#41 somehow and now there are basically no gaps between the branches, just branches growing on top of more branches. A few hours later you can’t even tell it had any bending joints. It’s basically a leafy salad. :)
Besides the PAR meter, the AC5 power strip and the soil sensor, I also ordered the Spider Farmer humidifier. On top of that I grabbed the Mars Hydro New Foldable Bucket Drip Irrigation Kit (it was 20€ cheaper than the Spider Farmer one, it’s identical, and through the AC5 it works in the Spider Farmer app just like everything else). I added a circulation pump to the reservoir as well, so the nutrient solution gets mixed before each irrigation. The reason I chose this model is the insanely strong magnetic mount. With the reservoir material that’s perfect, because there’s zero risk of damage and the pump stays in place like it’s welded on.
Ladies are about to be Bitchy & Stretchy.
5.3.2026 - Today I switched the photoperiod to 12/12. I had to thin out the BG#41, including removing a few branches — it was just too much. Even so, it’s still a hydra. Current values are in the photo.
