1stGrow; ZkittleZ Og Auto Supersoil

New week D91 foxtailing starting to happen on the top sugar leafs, not much but it's a sign she is done, maybe a few days ago even. She has about 10% clear left rest are amber cloudy with a few milky turning cloudy. Have her the last feed last night and that should pull her through the week. Will add maybe some cal to continue to break down the nutes, but this will depend on her PPM reading during the week, I'll give about 800ml which should give me 50-100ml back in water I can test. RH is steady in my room at 48% 55-60% in the tent gets higher when the lights are on. Temp is 21.7 in the dark goes as low as 21c as it comes close to being in the dark for 9 hrs. Reaches 27c and stays there after about an hour of the light been on can jump from 27-28c no higher. 19/3/22 As you can see I have the RH as best as I can get in my grow room, I've installed the smart fan and inserted the sensor giving me 57%RH, 75F in the tent with the light off, it's rather hot today, much hotter than normal, it's normally 21c in my room it's 24.5 today. RH is at 50% in room, hopefully by installing my old intake fan in the lowest part of my tent and suck out 80% While 100% gets blown in on top will bring the tents RH to the same as the room, that's the hope anyways. But 57%RH is still okay, not optimal but not too bad neither 21/3/22 So, I tried out my new method. Of having my smart intake fan suck in 50RH and a bottom intake fan at the end sucking out older air at a lesser speed had it running for 8hrs, no change in humidity whatsoever just dropped the temp by 1.5c. I think the fact I have a 70x70 with so many plants has set the RH and thankfully it's not what it was which was touching on 80rh at some days. A bigger tent and I'll really be able to dial in my grows now I have all the tools to control RH/TEMP from S/H. For now 57%RH when it's low and 62% when the lights are on for a few hours. Stays around 57-60% atm for around 85% of the time. Temp is constant and doesn't change without my control within a range of 4-6c change difference, this number I have no problem in changing and I'll be making my tent a lot cooler after this wk ends. I'll be keeping her at 18c with lights off and 28 with lights on. As for this plant, because of what it was grown in, humus/topsoil and all the micro nutes from the big bud I want to make sure I'm flushing out all those harsh metals that'll ruin my smoke, we don't want that. So, every 3 dat for the next 2 weeks I'll be doing a hard flush of 6l, I have excellent drainage on this plant, so only do this extreme flushing iif you are sure you can get back at least 5l of water out of your pot. Or whatever she normally holds she can leave that behind from the flush and count it as it's watering, but say your plant drink 2l and you hard flush with 10l you are wanting to drain 8l of water back to avoid overwatering and other issues and then not go near it again till it's due it's regular watering feeds. I felt I had to go to this extreme as doing normal flushing that should be done would have been able to break down the nutes in the soil quick enough and it would have been prolonged. For example I did a flush and gave a little over what she needed her PPM was 2300. Tonight was her 2nd hard flush she done her first on day 30 her next will be day 96. Got some run-off from the last 500ml and it was 900ppm really good, the the reading from the first 2l was 1090, but 900ppm reading from the last 500ml could be back up in the 1500 or whatever, it could sky rocket up on the next hard flush first run-off back up to 1500 who knows this is the thing about growing in supersoil, the flush is so hard to do. Have also dropped the PH to 5.8-6 ad to try continue nute uptake and drain the goodness from the soil. And I want to keep it organic so I'm holding off using flawless finish. 22/3/22 Soil is still very damp today after last nights 2nd hard flush. Think I'll have to leave it for at least another 48hrs before doing another hard flush, as I need to know the real ppm of the soil and I'll only know that when the soil dries out and when the first 1l goes in I need to be able to catch what ever comes out and that will give me it's true PPM reading. Which hopefully will be 8-900, need to get it down as low as possible, which is very hard to do in soil. If I had of started this process 1-2wks ago, (flushing), I think it would have been better. It's only been in the flush 5 days now. I'll see how the soil is in 24hrs and if there's no comment update then you know I decided to let her drain her soil dry. Fingers crossed she'll drink up over the next 24hrs, am dying to know her PPM. 22.5/3/22 Checked the soil when I got up, still very damp, a little too damp, just shows her drinking has slowed down by at least 30-50%, hence the foxtailing. Nothing much I can do about it. Gonna have to leave her for 36hrs I reckon, will check tonight but I can't see her drinking this much. 24/3/22 Ran a bud test to she is she ready to bring to harvest and what kinda smoke will she be like with the supersoil that's never been used to grow weed as far as I can tell. Did a 2l PH6.3-PPM78 of distilled water hard flush, caught about 1.1l back and PPM/PH were acceptable. Few more days should cut in half again. I took best part of a node weighed back in at 10.7 grams of wet 3g smokeable trim maybe .3-.5 back of trim and 1.7-2grams of bud. Looking to get 10-15% of mostiure so around that of 10g is roughly 1-1.5g and then you take in the weight of weed which is usually half the of the 10-15 mostiured bud. So roughly you look to see back around 20% when all said and done, clearly this number would vary wildly depending on how much you like your weed dry, but it cant be anymore than 20% mostiure or you won't be able to smoke it let alone grind it. There's 14 nodes like that that was the smallest 1, and I only took 2/3s of it as there was to side bud stems coming off cut node for smoke test. Will keep her in flush till that PPM number drops to around 150-250 and then harvest. 25/3/22 Glad I did a test chop. Little bit to harsh for my liking, would have been ruined in the cure, thing is, if you have chemicals in your bud and cure, the smell won't just get more intense the harsh/chemical cough will also intensify. Did another hard flush. Surprisingly was still high 550. Waited and hour did another, the repeated twice more and 2 hours later i poured just 500 ml got around 400ml back as soil still couldn't hold water, ppm was 253 PH was a little lower 5.78. Final report for this grow. Didn't go to bad for a first grow. And first time ever this supersoil formula was used. Great at regulating nutes and keeping plant in decent range, more of a ORGANIC PK booster early on would have been nice. overall I'm happy and will report on harvest soon. 1.5 week 4 hard flushes later and 253ppm hopefully that'll drop to 150ppm but either way she's coming down soon. Final update on this as for flowering/flushing. Did her final test 38hrs ago she hit water PPM or just about 97ppm 19 above what the water Is. PH was low though, 5.71 compared to her 5.85-5.9 throughout the whole grow. She has been in the dark 38hrs when it hit 48hrs she will be fully chopped so far she has given 10.7 bud and a 4gramer I think, (earlier test) got like 3g back dry. Was nice smoke first gram was harsh of course but this one I took last week was just a tad stronger so I left her for a week's extra flush. I'm sure after the cure them chemicals would have really came out. Thanks for reading and following my first grow, drop a like and I'll look at your page. Took her height again topped out at 48cm 15 solid nodes with nodes coming off them, rough guess each node weighs from 15-25g wet. Will give wet results after rough trim, in a weeks time dry weight..1 month later cure effects. Will update on smoke quality weekly. At the moment it's light, earthy, wood and small taste of critris/fruits, very mild though. Resin/trichomes could of been better, this was down to me learning as my other grows who are wks behind are totally different even the zkittkez hydro is 3 times as sticky/smelly/And trichomes are all over the sugar leafs. You can see the buds in the flash look white as opposed to the colors we can see on this grow. She is still nice, give a nice head high, as she stands without the cure she is a nice day time smoke. Hopefully she'll get stronger as the cure goes on, I know I'll get her real taste in a few weeks. As for effects that'll be partly down to luck and steady curing envoirment. Again, thanks for taking the time to read/drop by my diary, drop a like and I'll drop by yours. Thanks for reading, keep her lit. gottagrowsometime TO THE PEOPLE OF URAKINE YOU ARE IN OUR PRAYERS.
