Thanks for the advice. Delaying a day. The stalk is filling in but the leaves are a bit small still.
Not sure about the double grow. Since this is my first I will probably stick to one.
I'm throwing this out to the group for help. Anyone have any ideas on where to turn for new pumps? I need a new one for the mixing pump.
I checked on my grow this morning, and I noticed the time on the display said 4pm. I tried interacting with the control panel but I couldn't push any buttons - it was unresponsive no matter where I pushed.
I had to cycle boot the machine. This happened several times during my first grow and it really messed up my grow because it impacts the ability of the unit to follow the correct light schedule.
Is anyone working on getting this resolved? @BloomCS
Trying to test our posts
Hello I have decided id like to grow some fungi, mainly Enoki and Oyster. I would like to try and use the Bloom cabinet to provide the controlled environment. Is there a way to set parameters for humidity? The mushrooms need a more humid environment than what the bloom standard of 55%-65%.
Thanks for the wisdom,

Hello! I am trying to start a new grow, but am unable to download a recipe from the forum (trying to use the 'Autoflower Sativa' posted by Gr0w3r -- it shows as being downloaded on the unit but there is no recipe behind it). I've also tried entering the parameters from scratch and it does not save. Every recipe other than the sample recipes (I selected the 'Beefsteak Tomato recipe and that works) have a grow time of 0 (zero). System seems to be running fine. I reset/rebooted to no avail. Any ideas on next steps?
Hi from Chicago burbs... Looking forward to growing some great tomatoes.
Hello BLOOMers!
As I'm sure many of you have noticed, we are seeing some data issues between our BLOOMs and the cloud. This can impact recipe upload and download and limit what you can see from the APP, but should not impact the day to day running of your BLOOM garden.
Most of our BLOOM cloud development had been done with trusted long term partners in the Ukraine, Belarus and other countries now impacted by the crisis in the Ukraine. For security reasons, we ended relationships with contractors in those areas and are working hard to build expertise in safer zones. BLOOM is complex however, and so far we have not been able to move fast enough to keep all the wheels on all the time. We sincerely believe we will have this resolved soon, and thank you for your patience.
We are sorry for any frustration this downtime causes. We wanted to make sure you knew that we are aware of the issue, and let you know that we are working to get these issues resolved as soon as possible. If you have any other questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out.
I can no longer connect to my Bloom from the IOS app. After logging in, I get the internet connection lost message in red at the top of the screen.
Also on the forum and the Bloom panel, I am unable to download recipes from the forum. repetitive loop back to the login screen despite being logged into the forum.
Anyone else having similar issues?
Dwarf sunflowers are GLOWING in my BLOOM! This is day 100, with florals opening about 10+ days ago. I plan on harvesting the blooms in a few weeks and putting out for the birds. 20220510_093734.jpeg

So this is the fourth attempt to grow some sweet Mary Jane. The first 3 times all ended tragically due to various kinks which have been worked out for the fourth attempt. Finally was able to track down an auto flower seed and used that grow recipe.

I sent an email with an issue I'm having but it bounced back that the user has been deactivated. My worst nightmare after going through this with the Grobo!
@BloomCS are you still with us?
I cannot exit out of Edit Recipe on my control panel. I click every button possible, but it keeps saying fill in the missing information.

Hello all. Excited to join the community. I havent received my Bloom yet but starting the journey by browsing the forum and learning as much as I can beforehand. Hope everyone is well and surviving the craziness.
Day 77
Buds continue to fill out and color is going from opaque to solid whites and the typical trainwreck burnt orange. Based on the strain grow diaries online, we should see some bright greens in due time. The Trichomes are not full and frosty yet so feels like we have a little while before this baby is ready for the next stage.
Hello Bloomers
Day 7 of my new grow LSD, which is a 50/50 hybrid.
Here is more info on Leafy
Double pop so waiting to see the seedling structure before I narrow it down to one.
Day 17 - my first indica hybrid so it’s nice to see the difference in the leaves from my last grow (trainwreck}
Raised the recipe temperature target to 75 and now the Bloom screen target shows 68. 7 degree differential vs. previous 5 degree (70 to 65).
As far as the stage advancement, I believe it was on schedule the initial time. I did cancel the grow and reset the grow while fast forwarding to the dry stage to see if that would solve the lighting problem the second time.
That’s good to hear. I went through something similar so hang in there. My plant was resilient through the whole process so don’t worry too much about the health of the plant for now.
So we are on day 6 and about to flip to stage 2. With the 30 hour loss in the germination stage, should I delay the stage graduation or just let it run its course?

In the cannabis drying stage with the bloom and the humidity continues to rise as the water is extracted from the buds. Curious if it helps the dry process to open the door to let the humidity out everyday. The bloom doesn’t appear to remove moisture from the unit.
Anyone know?

Thanks for the quick response. I have adjusted the target temp in the recipe from 68 to 70 and the Bloom display stays at 65. The recipe column states “daytime temperature.” Since the lights are off the entire day, does that impact how the target is digested?
Hello Bloom community
Encountered a challenge on my second cannabis grow that I hope the community can help answer.
I am in the dry stage of my grow and despite recipe target setting of 0 light hours, both top and side lights keep triggering to the previous stage settings (flush stage -8 hrs). Tried several times to reset the machine and also reset the grow recipe but had no luck. Finally just set up a new recipe for just the dry stage and fixed the light issue. Curious if anyone else encountered a similar problem.
While the lights situation is resolved, now I have a temperature problem. My recipe setting is for 70 however the bloom monitor displays 65 as the target. In addition the bloom seems to stabilize at 60/61 despite being below the target zone. It appears purposeful as the cooling and heating triggers to maintain 60/61. I placed two different independent sensors in the unit and both read accurately to the bloom display. Any suggestions on how to raise the temperature in the unit?
Thank you @Gr0w3r
Stigmas are all a shade of orange now but the trichomes are still partially clear with the over half opaque. Nothing in the amber shade yet. Figure I give it another week or so before flush and dry.
Thoughts?
Hello Bloom community
My plant is about 112 days into the grow and showing signs of stress. It’s a Indica hybrid called LCD and attaching the recipe details and a few pics. Appears to be nutrient burn which came from a sensor error so I have disconnected the mixing tubes and manually monitoring the PPM with a handheld to stay within the target range. Also post water change the Bloom ventilation and cooling locked up and the internal temperature reached 90+ degrees for a half day before I noticed the condensation on the door. After powering off and back on, the Bloom functions were restored and all is back to normal.
Do you think the visible stress is the remnants of the heat exposure and/or the nutrient escalation? Overall PPM reached 2200 for about 3 days. Also any advice to restore the health or will it cycle through?
Day 87
Been a while since I last updated the forum on my grow. As mentioned earlier, I extended the veg state (PPM 1275, 9/9/5 ratios, 18 hours of light, day time temp 78) to 5 total weeks which provided significant girth to the plant. Since then I have flipped from early bloom (2 weeks) and completed the first flowering stage (2 was, 1350 PPM, 1.5/7.5/7.5 ratios, 12 hrs of sunlight, day time temp 74). Here are some pics.
Experiencing some nutrient burn so conducted a water change on the stage flip today.
Trellis has been overtaken by the plant so its held by one suction cup to stand the plant up more vertically. Getting another trellis to support the overweight buds from leaning toward the sides of the bloom.
Having technical difficulties with the sequencing of the post. Testing to see where this post lands chronologically.

Day 58
Went on a vacation so kept the plant in veg stage for an additional two weeks. Gave it a prune and flipped it to early bloom. Very healthy base and it should fill out the cabinet nicely.
