Sweet Tooth Auto

Another solid week. Sweet Caroline is performing quite well. Day 50 - did some mild defoliation, just to fit things in the tent well and let some light hit some bud sites (3-4 leaves) Day 51- 4 cups of clean water PH: 6 T:19.5°C Tips don't seem to be getting much worse and are staying contained to the sets of leaves they showed up on. Day 52 - a little more defoliation (3-4 leaves). As I've mentioned previously in this journal, I'm trying to get a feel for how much I can push the plants on this grow, and what effects them in different ways, so I'm trimming a bit more off than usual, but still I'm remaining conscious of how much. Day 53 - tucked some leaves and turned the lights up to 90%. I really want to push these buds, so I'll be trying it out at 100% soon enough. Will watch in the coming days to see how they react. Day 54 - Runoff Test. 12 cups of nute solution to 20% runoff. Added an extra 1/8tsp micro than planned. Added an extra 1/4tsp bloom than planned. Going in: PH:6 PPM:400 T:20°C Coming out: PH:6.2 PPM:800 T:20.5°C I find draining to runoff leaves my pots soaked for too long and I prefer them not to be, so I only plan to do it this once untill I stop using nutes in the later weeks. I'm happy to see these numbers, so I will continue forward as planned. Day 55 - Minor defoliation (3 leaves that couldn't be tucked) to uncover some bud sites that I like. Day 56 - Buds are coming in reeeaaal nice! End of week 8 Thanks for stopping by! 🥦
