Week 8- Day 1 of Veg (Day 66 overall)
I still have 1, 1/2" of clearance to the net. The Competition will hit the half way point on Wed, that leaves exactly 10 weeks left from Wed. So I decided to go ahead and top off the water by adding 10 gallons to the system today. I added the appropriate Nutes. I am considering 2 plans now that I have decided that I am going to flip to flower on Saturday no matter what. Plan 1, I can evaluate throughout this week and flip earlier than Saturday if needed which would mean draining my system on that day adding week 1 Flower Nutes to the tank and start Week 1 of flower that day.
I decided to go before before Saturday I will go ahead and change the water to week 1 flower, the same day I change the lights to 12/12. Then I will wait until the second Saturday so say 10 days if change my lights on Wed and then run Week 2 water/Nutes into Week4 and starting Week 5 change every week for rest of Grow. If I make it until Saturday will keep Week 1 Nutes until Week 3 and then starting Week 4 change every week until done.
Mammoth Silica- Bi weekly addition .5Mil/Gal * 36 Gallons = 18Mil
Added 10 Gallons to the system
Mammoth Silica= .5Mil/Gal = 5Mil
CalMag= .5Mil/Gal = 5Mil
Root Drip = 1Mil/Gal = 10Mil
FloraMicro= 5.4Mil/Gal= 54Mil
FloraGrow= 4.2Mil/Gal= 42Mil
FLoraBloom= 4.6Mil/Gal= 46Mil
ORCA=.5Mil/Gal = 5Mil

Week 8- Day 2 of Veg (Day 67 overall)
Less than 1/2" left until #3 hits the SCROG line, I think she is going to push me to flip tomorrow. Not much today let them rest and will continue to monitor in the morning to see if I am going to need to flip early.
@RDWCGrowing, They should recover. Cutting the roots slows it down a bit and it uptakes less nutrients while it recovers, but it will take off once it gets established. Make sure you get all the old roots out, that will leave something for the pythium and bad bacteria to eat. Some staining on the roots are fine, your water and nutrients can stain.. they don't have to be bright white, yellow/tanish is ok too.
@Oozle, I have my fingers crossed that I am back on track.. only then next few days will tell.. #3 is not looking well to me.. it looks like half shock if that makes sense.. I think I over reacted when I cut out the Rot on the roots.. I just hope I didn't kill it before I even gave it a chance with the fix items... I thank you for looking over my diary and taking the time to make suggestions to help me.
