My room is right across from the grow room and the new fan is noisy as hell. I can't wait to install it correctly so it doesn't make so much noise all the time...



Right now the plants are coming back from a case of light deficency brought on by crowding and the lack of use of reflective material for 3 months. They were developing necrosis on the leaves that were getting the least amount of light; but after setting them in the new hydrohut with reflective material and spreading them out under over twice the amount of light they have really been going off. The Mazar have almost caught up with the height on the Blueberry in just 4 days time.

One thing I must say is it really is amazing the amount of stress these things can handle on their stems. It's just amazing to see a stem snap almost in half and then the plant just heal itself and actually become stronger from it. It's one of the coolest things I've seen a plant do that's for sure.

Anyways regarding the light Dier- I was well aware of the lights being too high in the hydrohut at first- we just didn't have light hangers and chains would have been a serious pain in the ass. Hornby was saying we needed to adjust the lights in the previous post- we've been keeping the light as close as possible. The Blueberry plant has burns on the tips of the leaves from the light being so close.

Nice to meet you all, see ya around!

do you ever rotate your plants to make sure that they all receive adequate light? maybe that might help. if you do, good shit!

btw...i know wut u mean about the plants recovering from broken branches. my main stalk broke right thru da middle and all i did was hold it back in place w/ wire and it never showed any sign of stress and it healed itself. amazing lol.
