MARS SP3000 x2: San Bacio Gelato & Apex

Brought to you by Mars Hydro. Grow on Earth. Grow with Mars. Welcome back to my two plants, two lights, one 2x4 tent garden. All pics day 33 since flip TLDR: I fucked up. Blame the grower….plants are root bound in 7 gallon pots. 4~ weeks left. Was vegging with one sp3000 and only feeding minimum…just additives like MSA, aminos and teas. A splash of nutes here and there but nothing crazy. Everything is going awesome. I pruned them back, popped in another SP3000, flipped to 12/12 and introduced Nectar and boy oh boy did they take off….I wasn’t ready for so much growth in bloom. Leaves on the Apex are showing symptoms of deficiency or lock-out or something. Apex is the bigger of the two, drinks so much more and is probably more root bound than the gelato. I can see root hairs popping out on top of the soil. Not gonna sweat cuz there’s nothing I can do…I’m not gonna transplant, it’s too much work, I got a net and I don’t want to do it 4 weeks in…will just ride it out. And hopefully do better. Grabbed some 10 gallon pots for next time. All I gotta say is these lights are very powerful. My plants smell so good now but could be so much better. Blame the grower, not the nutes, not the lights. Still getting my shit dialed in…my next grow will be my best grow. On with the show. Thanks for stopping by. Happy gardening 🌱
