Today is the start of week 8, and the 2nd week of flower. So, as she advances and grows, so shall her food. Today I gave her a gallon of chilled water (52.5 degrees F) with the following: CALiMAGic 5ml, FloraMicro 7.5ml, FloraGro 2.5ml, and FloraBloom 10ml. The initial pH was 6.7 and didn’t need adjusting. The TDS going in was 814 ppm. She didn’t end up taking the whole gallon, but about 85% of it. She had plenty of runoff still. The runoff pH was 6.3, and TDS runoff was 2561 ppm. She looks very healthy and May be beginning to stretch a bit, but it is still too early to tell. The main thing is that she looks really good and I’m happy with her progress thus far!

I was going to feed on the 4th, then again on the 5th, but the soil was still moist a knuckle down. But I’m feeding today no matter what! She’s looking great! In reality, she and her tent mate are both looking amazing and healthy. My solution has been ready for the past 3 days, but I’ve had it in the refrigerator the whole time. I read that it is still good to give as long as it’s been a week or less, so hopefully there won’t be any issues. I’m still using the early bloom levels of nutrients as follows: CALiMAGic 5ml, FloraMicro 7.5ml, FloraGro 2.5ml, and FloraBloom 10ml. The pH was 6.7, needing no adjustment. The TDS going in was 884 ppm. Runoff pH was 6.4, and TDS runoff was 2168 ppm. The tent temp was 83 degrees F, and humidity was 55%.
Frrrroooosssty! Maaaan, I really gotta try growing photos. I heard one can learn about plant structure and play/experiment more with that veg/flo light control.... They look amazing man! Looking forward to that smoke report!
@XII_XII_MrGreen,
I’m hoping that’s the case. Honestly, I have no idea what a normal yield is for a single plant. My first plant was allowed to veg so long due to my inexperience that I can’t really expect every plant to have the same type of yield. My first plant gave me 7.79 ounces, or 220+ grams, and it’s size took up my whole tent. This baby girl and her tent mate together don’t take up the amount of space that their predecessor did alone. However, I expect her yield to be more common and realistic. Time will tell. Thank you for the compliment, I truly do appreciate it.
@MrHightimes,
Thanks. I’m lucky they’re still alive at this point. Their resilience is surprising, but wonderfully appreciated (by me) because the flowers (actual flowers, not bud) outside have all died as a result of my being injured, or busy. They (Blueberry Muffin and Blue Ox) have not. Lucky me!
