Hey growers.
This week I decided to water with a heavier ppm as the plants didn’t seem too happy. They were showing some yellowing on the lower leaf tips. Guess I was right bc they exploded up to about 12” +-. Then I decided to top and LST the main stem. Today I just adjusted the ties, removed 1-2 leaves from each plant depending if there was any in the mud or not. Yesterday I watered with 525 ppm, but unfortunately the water was a bit on the cold side and they’re having trouble soaking it up. I have since created a rez in my grow room just to hold RO water at approx 70 degrees. So that problem should be rectified.
I think I’m right on the cusp of preflower as I’ve seen one or 2 pistils.
Regardless they’re doing their thing and I’m trying to do as little as possible to keep them vegging as long as possible and end up beastly!!!

@Noxe7, hey. Thanks for the advice. Ya, I really think the cold water PH fluctuations are to blame for that. First off, that’s why I like to leave those big leaves on the bottom as a good food stash and will be removed later. Secondly, I agree with the foliar feed and have since sprayed with 250 ppm of cal mag and b vitamin at 5.8. I’m gonna do a couple applications in the next couple days.
