2 Gallons of nutrient enriched water between 850-1000 PPM's depending on the gallon mix
Grow Big, Big Bloom, Liquid Seaweed
Flipped light schedule to 12-12
11/26/21
Watered / no nutrients 2 gallons of water each plant
11/29/21
Watered AK#4 only 3 gallons of water each mixed with 0.25 Tsp of Open Sesame mixed into each gallon
11/30/21
Watered AK#3, SD#1, and SD#2 with 3 gallons of water each mixed with 0.25 Tsp of Open Sesame mixed into each gallon with average of 6.5 PH each gallon
12/5/21
Water only, 3 gallons of water each. Measured the PPM run offs on each plant:
AK#3 run off was 1802 PPM, with a PH of 6.41
SD#2 run off was 2066 PPM with a PH of 6.23
AK#4 run off was 1850 PPM with a PH of 6.41
SD#1 run off was a WHOPPING 2889 PPM and a PH of 6.14---surprised this plant not dead lol or showing signs of big nutrient burn yet. Definitely giving this one only water next round.
**I just ordered 6 foot stakes to help hold up the branches for the Sour Diesels. The branches on this strain seem very weak and unable to hold up on their own, even though I've had fans on them since they were seedlings. The Afghan Kush branches are strong and sturdy. I've light burned a couple top leaves here and there, but I have been going in the tent daily and rubbing/encouraging branches to grow more sideways than up.**

Hey! Happy growing my friend! I hope you do well and get some good results! I will come by sometime to see your progress! Keep on growing!
If you ever visit my page please say hello!
Peace & love L.S.T 🌟❤️🔥
@Rodamis_Prime, thanks!! I managed to make more room above between the lights and these huge plants, and hoping I don't run out of room before harvest lol
@sativaman, They were much more sensitive than the other strain since the beginning, but I've learned through this process that the Cal Mag REALLY helped it. I tried everything else and I think that's what it needed this entire time.
Kindly offering my sympathies to you.
Gonna have to flip lights on those huge plants!! They are almost at the highest for this tent! Do you plan to put them out??? Expect 2-3 times stretch after 12-12.
@mariharam, Hey I am a total noob so take this with a grain of salt!
First, I am really sorry to hear about your sister.
I was just in a grow shop yesterday and they sold me some potassium silicate to help strengthen stems and branches during the last few weeks of vegetative and the first few weeks of bloom.
In addition to strengthening the stems, they also referred to it as a "stretch stopper" as the stems tend to get more girthy rather than tall.
The idea being that flowers will only grow to be as big as the stems can support. So if you end up with a shorter stout plant, you should have bigger buds.
@sativaman,Trying to figure that out. I wanted to give em a few days to recover because I just chopped off like over a foot from the tops because they were so big, and I didn't flip them two weeks ago like I had planned because of all that shit happening with the family. Hmmm I do have the closet still which gives me an extra foot I can swap them back into if I have to, but I think I'm going to cut the recover time and just flip them in a day or two.
