5/29 - So...my Amazon lights are junk! Big surprise, right? Because of that, I have dropped to 5" over canopy. I did this gradually and monitored closely for light burn. Every inch I dropped the lights, the ladies lifted their leaves towards the lights. I read online that that is called "praying". So since they responded positively, I am going to just leave the lights as close as possible. I will need to invest in a proper light or lights for my next grow, which is Growers Choice Critical Purple, can't wait!!!! It is a shame that the cheap Amazon lights cost me a solid 2 weeks of positive growth by following the manufacturers light hanging chart. Oh well, what can you do? Since lowering the lights, there has been a minor explosion in growth and I can only assume that will continue. Will feed week 3 nutes later in the week as soil dryness dictates.
6/3 - Fed the plants today and adjusted lights to 4", again they suck! I topped the first node off of all four girls. I misted all plants with diluted Cal-Mag. Set the dehumidifier to 60 % Rh and emptied as well as set the humidifier to 40% RH. Measured runoff. Left set: EC: 3.0, PPM: 1514, pH: 7.1 Right set: EC: 3.5, PPM: 1750, pH: 7.2. I cant get the pH to come down in my runoff. I really should have checked the pH of the growing medium prior to planting. You live and you learn!
First time Coco coir. I neglected to check the pH before planting, and I can't seem to get the pH down from 7 to 6. I have tried rinsing with several gallons of 5.5 pH, no help. What is safe to add while growing? Thanks!
With my experience with coco the runoff is never in the absolute correct zone. If your seeing high just keep feed/waterings at 5.5 for your veg cycle. Cheers
Should I harvest with mostly milky white trichomes or should I wait till some amber ones come in? Any idea how long from milky white to amber? Thanks!😀
This depends on your own opinion. If you like a more body high you need more amber. But if all trichomes are milky white you can harvest, and this is the point where the THC is at the maximum point. I prefer always a 90% - 10% milky amber mix. I don't like the couch lock maybe just 1 time a week after a hard Traning or work. Your lady's looking really good 💪🏼 enjoy your work 💚👌🏼
