So far so good this week. Keeping the plants under a humidity dome and keeping RH between 40-60%

Week 2 went well, showing good growth. I'll probably have to transfer the plants out of the solo cups sometime in the upcoming week. I'm still watering with just plain water.

This week the plants were transferred into their air pots and the pump irrigation system was installed. I'm still hand watering for now. They're now in Coast of Maine Stonington Blend super soil. I'm using general organics CaMg+ in addition to Fish Sh!t and Voodoo Juice, and I'll be adding biothrive grow base nutes in a couple weeks.

There was a bit of a Mg deficiency this week, which is surprising given the super soil. Either the CoM Stonington blend isn't what it used to be, or these girls are VERY hungry for nutes. Started adding nutrients in full doses which seems to have stopped the Mg deficiency from getting any worse. Otherwise they're looking good so far. Hopefully I can start filling out the screen in the next couple weeks.

So it turns out my pH meter was reading WAY higher than actual (around +1.2), which means I've been maintaining pH way too low. Explains the magnesium deficiency that has slowed down growth as of late. Got a new pH meter, calibrated and verified accurate, and did a heavy watering at full nutrient strength and 6.5 pH. Immediate improvement and the plants are growing rapidly again. Phew!

Installed the scrog net this week, and topped the two plants on the left. I think I'm not going to top the other two plants, and just weave their main shoots through the screen with LST only. The plants on the right are still recovering from their earlier pH issues, so best not to top them.

Hi buddy. Just looking at your diary. Your EC must be through the roof with ratios that high with synthetic nutrients. What you are using has a lot of salts, especially the calmag. Atm your girls are in a state of lockout. Tis y your growth has slowed some. As you are now using an auto feed, so with that, you really should never use soil pal. Soil only needs a feed once a week. Maybe twice if you use a 1/3 of what your using. Just trying to help. I'd turn that off. You really don't need it with soil. You only need water every 2-3 days. Anyways, flush them, let it dry out, and trust me, your growth will take off. To keep photosynthesis going and so it doesn't throw the plants into hard flushes throw a light 1ml/l of calmag over it to help growth take off. You only want to partly flush, the value of the pot x1.5 should do just fine. Anyways, good luck pal.

@MainelyGrown, ahhh, okay.. yeah, then you got it bro. Hopefully they'll kick back in soon. I went through 2PH pens in the 1st 5 months. Have a milwaukee ph55, and I use a ph storage solution, as If you store the diode dry they go after 1-2 months. Have this pen and it still gives me the exact PH of my tester solution I also have. The storage solution will save you money in the long run. Anyways, sure you'll figure it out soon. Good luck pal.

@gottagrowsometime, appreciate the feedback! I've actually only been hand watering every 4 to 5 days and I make sure the soil is pretty dry first, but I set up the auto feed just to have it in place in the event that I need to spend a week away from the plants. I am using all organic nutes, although previously I had only used advanced nutrients organic line and for this grow I was forced to go with the General Organics line. Also, a couple weeks back I identified that I had been giving water at a pH that was way too low due to a busted meter, so I figured that was the main reason for lockout. I'll keep a close eye on these ladies and if I don't see much improvement after the next watering then I'll definitely flush them and hope for the best!
