Good morning Tri_Cho_Me.
Those girls are looking great. Whatever you are doing your plants are loving you. Looks like your finding a good feeding schedule. I flipped to 12/12 about a week ago so I'm a couple weeks behind and looking forward to seeing the buds form and stack. Exciting times for sure.
I've been reading about VPD a bit the last few weeks and asking opinions as well. I've kind of come to the conclusion that unless you live in a perfect climate or have a sealed grow room it's not going to be easy to keep VPD optimal at all times. I've spoken with successful growers that grow in much lower humidity than optimal as far as the VPD charts show. I try to keep my humidity as close as possible but will always be on the dry side. I would have to basically keep my whole house at the humidity I want in my tents. I've also seen many recommend lower than optimal VPD during late flower. I got a little bud rot keeping humidity in the 50's% on my first grow and am going to get it a little lower on this next cycle. Not sure if this helps but I've decided to use VPD as a rough guide and take it into consideration but not to get too worried about it if I'm a little dry. I've seen great looking frosty buds that grew in dry climate and seemed to do just fine.
I would agree, hard to control and the plants seem to be doing fine regardless.
Interesting to hear about your bud rot at 50%. Will have to keep that in mind as things progress.
Thanks for dropping by!
