First Main-Lining cuts. 3 gallons of water each @ 6.6ph April 11 - Out of town. An exciting week for the girls. They are growing nicely and seem very healthy. The girls were transplanted into 3 gallon airpots for the rest of their veg phase. I performed the first main-lining cuts at the end of this week after transplanting to new pots. I would have liked to wait a few more days but I had to leave town for a few days and didn't want them growing out of control while unsupervised. So I left the fan leaves to help the new growth get going. No nutrients have been added, Fox Farms Ocean Forest seems to carry these plants just fine between transplants. Pics are before and after the main-lining cuts

April 12 - Out of town. April 13 - Out of town. April 14 - Side shoots are coming up nicely. Fan leaves still on for another day or two until new shoots are slightly more grown. 1.5 gallons of water each @ 6.8ph. April 15 - Completed main-lining the first set of nodes on all plants. April 16 - Recovery looking good. Used my new Apogee MQ-500 to adjust lights to hit canopy ~700 umol to try and maximize light intake April 17 - 1.5 gallons of water each @ 6.7ph. April 18 - No updates, growth looks good

# WEEK 4 April 19 - No updates, growth looks good April 20 - Final main line cut on bigger plant April 21 - Watered 1.5 gallons @ 6.7ph April 22 - Final main line cut on middle plant April 23 - Final main line cut on last plant April 24 - Slight purpling of leaf stems. April 25 - 1.5 gal water each @ 6.9ph. Noticing some yellowing which seems like Magnesium deficiency. Epsom salt on its way tomorrow, will re-water.

This week was all about fixing the mag deficiency. Overall the girls are doing well # Week 5 April 26 - 1 gal water each with 1tbs epsom salt. Foliage spray with epsom salt water April 27 - Epsom salt seems to have stopped the issues with the mag deficiency. Will be keeping a close eye on their health for the next few days. April 28 - recovery looks good, tied down the a few of the final colas to spread them apart a little April 29 - Watered 1.5 gal @ 6.5ph with 1 tsp epsom salt & 1/4 strength Mills A/B April 30 - Good uptake of nutes, looking happy. Continuing to watch for Magnesium deficiency. May 1 - Looking good, nothing to report. May 2 - Girls look happy. Going to water them again tomorrow with more epsom salt

Well this week I unfortunately lost one of my girls. She went hermie on me, I believe from stress from the main stem splitting during main-lining. Sad day, but life moves on. # Week 6 May 3 - 1.5 gal each @ 6.8ph. 1tsp epsom/gal. Last watering seemed to help a bit, sticking to a stead low dose of magnesium sulfate each watering for the time being. May 4 - Happy girls, growth looks solid. May 5 - Nothing to report May 6 - 1.5 gal each @ 6.7ph. One of the girls looks to be going hermie on me, thinking due to the stress from the main stem split. May 7 - Ripped out hermie. Down to 2 girls May 8 - Nothing to report. May 9 - 1.5 gal each at 6.3ph. 1tsp epsom/gal.
