Week 8 // Oct 23 - Oct 29
--------------------------------------------
- Spending lots of time training the plants using LST and some HST with supercropping clips to redirect the branch growth.
- Defoliating daily for light penetration and airflow optimization.
- They've already popped through the screen and lots of stretch to come so I added a second net just in case. Once they stop stretching, I may remove the second net if it doesnt seem applicable but I've found its a good idea to have in place as a contigency.
- I've been pushing PPM up just abover 700 and it goes down throughout the day as expected.
- They are drinking about 4L water and 20ml of nutrients per day, sometimes more.
- Still using veg-based nutrients during the stretch. Iill switch to bloom nutrients once the stretch slows down.
- System is still using original water from the initial system fill. The water smells like fresh salad.
- 1st water change will likely be next week when the stretch slows down. I'll switch to bloom nutrients to avoid N toxicity.
@mangolinux420, Hey thanks for the inquiry. I did not upgrade the pump on this run, and I haven't even regretted it yet. The 250 is working great for a two-site setup! Thanks for checking out my diary! Happy growing!
@Blessed_With_Knowledge, Thanks for the encouragement! I find it's the one type of training I often doubt the most. There are so many moves that can be made during the training!
good to see you back at it! totally understand the 'time being a commodity thing. starting a new NightOwl grow as well (just popped today). happy growing friend π€
@MyWeedAccount, hey friend! lol yes! at least we will get that extra hour of time next weekend! π
i just checked out what you're growing next and I'm excited to see how they turn out! I grabbed 5 packs on the Halloween drop, including the SSB but I'm fully regretting not getting the QB and may have to pick it up at the banks.
Keep keepin your grows fun!
