Day 22 - Aquavalve has been on for 3 days now, doesn't seem to fully empty the tray but the plant seems to like it, there is growth every day
Day 23 - nothing to report, plant is drinking and growing each day . Res is stable at 5.5ph looks to have drank near 500ml over the day
Day 24 - started LST today, will leave it to stretch up over the next 2 day or so and re- tie the branches to the outside of the pot. Res holding at 5.5ph
Day 25 - Plant responded well to the LST is starting to bush out a touch, has a few pistils but not yet "flowering" thankfully, hoping to get some more veg before flower really kicks in. Res still at 5.5ph water In the tray is 5.7ph , water level is at 1 gallon remaining so its drinking close to 750ml daily
Day 26 - Raise ppfd to 350, res is still holding at 5.5ph I will do a refill over the next couple days and possible switch to the bloom which should still have plenty of Nitrogen in the mix to promote the remaining vegetative growth.
Day 27 - filled res and adjusted mix, I have a feeling it was a little too much nitrogen and calcium. I am using tap water that has a starting ec of .2 I don't think there is much need to use much more additional calcium, res ec is at .7 and ph 5.5 again
Day 28 - decided to flush the plant from the top with the res water, there looks to have been a slight magnesium deficiency but may have been ph, so I flushed to see what would come out . After flushing I refilled the res with 4ml micro/4ml magnifical/4ml bloom to a ec of .8 and dropped it to a ph of 5.9.
@HyperactiveHighs, yeah I would call it greasy rather than frosty, as soon as you touch it your sticky anywhere you came in contact. Thanks for the comment
