5-14:
Repeating LateGrowth3 @ 42%
~28-30k lux coming down on ~8” plants. 36” light distance has been closed to ~28” (Rear Right is coming in closer to 10-11” than 8”)
LST clips have been going on. 4way is laid out with the clips and the 2nd top should be happening in the next few days. One of the branches on the tall plant seemed like it just snapped itself in the clip for some reason, let’s hope it doesn’t start happening to a lot of branches
Rear Left and Front Left are beautiful healthy looking plants, nice and short, uniform, etc
Rear Right is noticeably taller and “stretchier”, it’s going to make an even canopy more difficult
And I’m convinced Front Right is going to go mutant on me
5-16: just turned the light up to 100%. 35-40k lux at tops of plants
5-17: finished the last of the topping, it has been an ongoing process
5-20: finished the last of the LST.
I’m getting daily drops in ph by ~.5. Roots look healthy, no smell, EC is rising (slightly but this might just be because of the large res).
Wondering if I’ve been overfeeding. Plan on dumping res for a 24hr flush/rinse tomorrow before flushing and refilling again for next week
5-21: dumped the res, rinsed it out, refilled it with plain water for a 24hr flush
Will drain, rinse, and refill again tomorrow before adding nutes for new week
@ACMPRgrow, thanks! But that PA Hydro build has a big flaw in its return piping and the S-bend it uses to pass through one of the pre-existing holes in the tent.
I cut holes in the tent and passed all the return piping through the walls to the external res as low as possible and level, if you ever try to replicate his build I’d highly suggest the same.
But yeah I love this rig, and I sure have put some time and thought into it so I really appreciate the compliment
