Ok, back from vacation! Reservoir worked out perfectly, both plants are throwing out pistels, no stretch to speak of, and leaves are huge and green! 4/25 - chopped back a bunch of fan leaves to open it up and expose some more bud sites. I should probably chop back some of those to avoid a bunch of larf, but I'll get around to that soon.dee 4/28 - digging into optimal NPK ratios for flower, and came across this study: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpls.2021.764103/full Some very, very good info. I tried to re-create the 10:3:10 ratio using the Fish Fertilizer for a bulk of the N component - an absolute fucking mistake. After 2 days, it smelled like I was keeping a corpse in the basement. So, I just deep cleaned the reservoir and got all that nasty stuff flushed out. Working up a new mix now. Stay tuned (just kidding, nobody has even looked at this grow, so far as I can tell. Whatevs.) OK, New mix for 10:3:6.5 is: 250g MC Part A, 170g Calcium Nitrate, 20g Epsom, 130g Urea in 10 gallons yields ratio that pretty matches the optimum from the above study - 200mg/l N : 60mg/l P : 130mg/l K : 65mg/l Ca : 35mg/l Mg : 42mg/l S Gonna let it fly and see how it turns out. Might need to tweak the weights a bit to hit my target EC, but keeping the ratios the same.

Ok y'all, was hoping for a simple, hands off grow with just one topping early on. These babies have turned into dense bushes, and I want to defoliate the undercarriage a bit. Fan leaves are huge from the base to the top, so do I just prune out the lower, older fans?

I'm 4 weeks into flower. Plant is super healthy and bushy. Want to thin it down. Can I take some cuttings to clone? Should I put the cuttings back to 18/6 or keep them at 12/12?

Hello. Yes you can take clones almost anytime in the plants life, except the end. They need to go back to 18/6. It is best to take clones just before you switch to flower. the more a plant goes in and out of flowering it looses a bit of vigor. Most strains can go back and forth only a few times before it's not that strong anymore. Also beware that the clone taken in flowering will show weird mutated leaves for a while and it won't be ready for flowering again for at least a month before you get normal leaves out of it and it's gone back to veg. There is a big struggle with the hormones when you take clones in flowering and wanting them to go to veg.. So expect some strange growth before going back to veg. Good luck. Chuck.

How high in power should I go with my lights without CO2 enrichment? I can comfortably provide 1200 PPFD to the canopy, but I'm holding it down near 900 because I'm not sure the extra power used would yield an increase in, um, yield.

always crank out the light if you can ride it out. thing is wierdness starts happening for example you need a lot more calcium and magnesium. the way you're feeding right now, you would have to change quite a lot of the "hands off approach" like you might need to start spraying the leafs with cal mag, monitor it more closely etc. totally worth it especially at the begning and middle of flower, just start turning it down quite a lot towards the chop, get that taste in there. Hope this helps ! 🚀
