Day 29 - Fertigated with ec 1.29 ms/cm, pH 5.6. Runoff between 1.29 - 1.42 ms/cm, pH 5.6 - 5.8. More wire training on all but Mango Smile #2, which is still too small to train.
Day 30 - Fertigated with ec 1.29 ms/cm, pH 5.6. Runoff between 1.18 - 1.44 ms/cm, pH 5.6 - 5.7. More wire training on all but Mango Smile #2, which is still too small to train.
Day 31 - Fertigated with ec 1.31 ms/cm, pH 5.7. Runoff between ec 0.99 - 1.35 ms/cm, pH 5.7 - 5.9. Runoff ec seems low on the largest plants. Increased fertilizer by ~15% to reach ec 1.47. Will see tomorrow if this helps increase runoff ec to ~1.3 - 1.4.
Day 32 - Fertigated with ec 1.48 ms/cm, pH 6.5. Runoff between ec 1.25 - 1.44 ms/cm, pH 5.6 - 5.8. Increasing the fertilizer by ~15% has brought the ec back up to appropriate levels. Will continue with increased fertilizer as long as ec levels remain on target. All plants have started to flower/pre-flower.
Day 33 - Fertigated with ec 1.59 ms/cm, pH 6.2. Runoff between ec 1.33 - 1.58 ms/cm, pH 5.5 - 5.6. Some leaves canoeing from too much light. Raised light to 18" from canopy.
Day 34 - Fertigated with ec 1.57 ms/cm, pH 6.5. Runoff between ec 1.35 - 1.57 ms/cm, pH 5.6 - 5.7.
Day 35 - Fertigated with ec 1.56 ms/cm, pH 6.5. Runoff between ec 1.41 - 1.61, pH 5.5 - 5.7.
congrats on the harvest. I'm using Bruce Bugbee Method as well (1st grow), are you going to use that Peat/Vermiculite medium again or do you think it can be only used once!
Great following along with your grow. I just started the same.
You show you are watering about .5l per 24hrs per plant how much runoff are you getting?
I water every few days using a soil probe and weight to determine dryness. But, I may switch to more regular lighter watering if I can get your results.
@Dusty_Shackleford, well I am definitely going to make some changes to my watering. I probably water about 1/3 of what you do.
My plants appear healthy but my yield is typically about an ounce. AVT will get more water going forward. Thank you for your assistance
@Aberj3, At this point it's up to about 1.5 gallons per plant per day. During veg it was about 0.5 gal per plant and I watered once per day. I now water twice per day and always get at least 20% runoff. I would strongly suggest an automatic watering system because hand watering and measuring runoff takes about 2 hours every day.
