Boradan A few things to note:
Mega Crop amounts are incorrect - it is 0.5 GRAMS per liter as it is a powder nutrient.
The Light is an adjustable 3500k COB LED. 15 to 150Watts, so the actual wattage will vary from week to week.
This is an RDWC system with 4 pots running from a single reservoir using 60L TOTAL, which is why it may seem like a lot of nutrients.
We have some variegation on the leaves. May grow out of it. No big deal if it doesn't

Boradan pH pen AND TDS meter both decided to die (both cheapo ebay ones).
Ordered a Bluelab Growbox with both.

Boradan Starting to bulk out now.
Getting a touch of Nitrogen toxicity due to overfeeding - shared reservoir with 3 other plants, so some suffering is to be expected.
May also have quite a bit to do with the fact that my ppm meter and pH pen were WAAAAY off, so I was feeding far too much and at the wrong pH.
Topped at Day 20

Boradan More LST and Defoliation.
Getting some nice structure now.
Still no sign of pistils - this may take a while
Boradan Installed a SCROG net and stretched the lady out a bit.
On e of the ladies in the tent is suffering from CalMag issues
This means more Magnifical, which contains nitrogen, causing N Tox.

Boradan Took the SCROG net down as it was a pain.
Pistils are appearing sloooooowly, but are definitely making progress.
The COB is now up to 150 Watts

Boradan With the current heat, the plants are drinking a lot more than they are eating, so the ppm is increasing.
I will be keeping an eye on this to see if it is going to be an issue

Boradan The ppm issue is getting worse, so I have been adding a significant amount of pH'ed water to try and sort this.
Due to the excessive drinking and ppm increases, 2 of the plants sharing the reservoir are getting pretty heavy N Tox - they are further on than this lady, so are not needing as much N during flower.
Did a full reservoir change/clean and let them run for a few hours with ONLY PH'ed water.
Nutrient levels have been changed to try and cope with this - at least I can drop the MagnifiCal now as the plant that needed it is now into flower and should be fine.
pre-flowers are building nicely and still some stretch to go.
Currently 25" tall and 27"x 27" footprint

Boradan Well into pre-flowering and pushing towards full flowering.
She is now 27" x 27" and 30" tall.
Zero nutrient issues and all is looking well.
The main stem is no longer a stem and can only be called a trunk!
She recovered well from the defoliation in just a few days and looks like she may need some more soon.

Boradan Lots of Defoliation today.
She is getting rather large - currently 29 1/2" tall and about 30" diameter.
