Fill the Tent - Strain 1 of 4

This week we top dressed nutrients and added a few amendments to the top of the medium too that we blended in. The ProMix #4 holds enough nutrients for 22 irrigation and then the usable npk is gone. So for veg I added a 4-2-4 blend with additional phosphates added to achieve a 6-5-5 total. The light was dropped 6 inches and turned to 80% power as these ladies should be able to run a 18hr of increased intensity with minimal issues. The base height has been established and I should now be able to work these 2 ladies relatively easy to include watering during flower. Waterings have been decreased to about 1 time every other day and the water has been ph'd to a value between 5.8 and 6.5. I dechlorinated my water using reverse osmosis and letting stand for about 24 hours. The phenotypes are vigorous and are looking so healthy. We will see what happens with the tent as the grow continues. Next week will be the first week of training. Outside of the normal veg procedures I have left these ladies alone, I plan to do some "FIM" but a modified version removing no growth but instead crushing the ends I have heard has better results. In 2 weeks I will likely change the light schedule to a 12 12 just because of the plants I have and how big they will get I will need a 4-5 week veg period before transition to flower. In theory this should be adequate veg to fill the tent wall to wall with buds. Until next week HG&HT!
