5/7 - Day 47/Day 7 Flower
Saw the first signs of pistils, right on schedule. I noticed that my leaves were coming in with a much lighter green color over the course of the week. Out of an abundance of caution, I gave my girl a light feed with a solution of:
- 5ml of FF Grow Big (1/3 recommended dose)
- 5ml of FF Tiger Bloom (1/2 recommended dose)
- 10ml of FF Big Bloom (2/3 recommended dose)
The solution readings came back as:
- 6.4pH
- 1.1 EC
- 585ppm
My runoff reading was:
- 6.2pH
- 2500ppm
- 5.0EC
The runoff readings are still a bit high for my liking but I wanted to make sure that my girl would have adequate nitrogen going into flower. Additionally, I top dressed the medium with some dolomite lime as I have been having trouble getting the pH to stay above 6. Hopefully this will mitigate any potential issues with potassium as well as provide some magnesium supplementation which could be needed, given that I have been watering with distilled water.
I also started introducing some LST to widen out the branches and even out the canopy.
