Week 8 is finally here! We changed up the nutrient feeding to the week 8 on the feed chart.
I am diluting everything at a 50-40% rate to keep EC within acceptable ranges of 0.8 - 1.1 EC.
I started adding Terpinator to the mix and I do notice a significant smell increase vs. without it. I am going to keep using this as I think it is a great supplement. I did figure out that even though on the bottle and on the specific feed chart, it says it is a light formula that will have minimal impact on EC and will not burn your plants at the recommended rates - it will!
First time mixing up my nutrients with terpinator, I had to dilute it because the EC was too high. I put the recommended amount in my mix, and checked EC and low and behold it was high. The next feeding I did a 50% dilution rate and that seemed to be ok if you are diluting your other inputs properly to compensate.
ALWAYS make sure your EC and PH are in check prior to fertigating your plants.
I am watching the trichomes on a daily basis and am looking to harvest sometime this week or next. I plan to dry it in the tent it is growing in as it has AC and good airflow. Once they are done drying, they will get trimmed up, lightly vacuum sealed and stored in the freezer.
Updates will be coming throughout the week!
