Had some issues with dark spots appearing on one plant. Looks CalMag related so I cut out non essential nutrients, put the pH slightly higher and I switched to full bloom with the Top Max. Let's see what happens. 😐

CalMag issues seem to be finally under control. Better late than never. Major changes needed for the next run, most likely saying goodbye to BioBizz Light Mix soil, can't deal with the amount of bugs anymore.

It looks like I've gotten over the nutrient block. The leafs are not stable and the CalMag issues are under control. The smell has also burst all of a sudden. Still no smell outside the cabinet though :P The purple is timidly starting to show. About time.

Fruiting still going well, not much purple showing. It seems like the source of the problems might lie with the low humidity. Something to try in the next grow if I can somehow fit a humidifier.

Flush week 1 for these 2 plants. Luckily no new problems came up. Still a way too many of those annoying fruit flies. Next round, I'll fix this. Buds have significantly fattened over the last week

Second and last week of flushing. Buds have fattened up another little bit. Smells are great from one of the 2 plants, the other one not much.

Despite all the CalMag issues, the strain itself seems to have produced some fine terpenes and nice and fat buds.

This grow was a little stressful, but it was an eye opener on what can be improved in my grow. Still a big fan of keeping it simple though ;)

@NordicClosetGrower, I’m sorry to hear that bro

I understand you completely, I used to feed my plants with the full dose for photos and I always wondered why the tips were burnt even though I gave them half the recommended dose. Every manufacturer has prominent feeding charts but i didn't know it at that time.Good luck bro and happy growing.

@Whitewizard, I tried to flush it for 2 weeks and now it seems to be "better". At least I learned that autos don't seem to require nearly as much nutrient as a non auto. Also, my local water is soft AF like I've never experienced elsewhere.
