This growlog chronicles the journey of "Ricky Bobby #2 (LIT)" from germination to curing. The plant was grown in an air cube hydro setup and experienced several environment changes, including moves to larger tents. Throughout its vegetative and flowering stages, meticulous attention was paid to nutrient levels, pH, and water temperature, with adjustments made based on the plant's response. The grower also implemented training techniques like LST and defoliation, and faced a minor setback with the air cube flooding system which was quickly resolved. The log concludes with the plant entering the drying and curing phases, indicating a successful cultivation cycle.

Note
Plants have bounced back for the most part. I'm sure this will set them back a bit but it is what it is, you live and learn. This is my 2nd run in this system and I know from here on out. I changed the airline route around the empty pump, that keeps the hose away from the float.

Note
Ok last "fix" was not the issue of why my air cube was not flooding. I have a nano bubble air stone in the brain and the air line was pinned under one of the floats in the brain. Moved the line and ran a few cycles, it filled fine after finding this. I ran 4 flood cycles and it was operating normally.
Note
Trees in sad shape this morning. The air cube didn't fill for some reason. I have made the repairs I though it needed and it's flooding properly again.
Note
Plants have recovered from my mistake with the air cube not flooding. All 4 are going to be super frosty. The plants are so sticky, it really reminds me of my nana glue Skywalker og kush run which was had the most frost production ive had to date. Both runs done with Ventana plant science nutrients and flaVUH.
