Week 10- Day 1 of Flower (Day 131 overall) (Day 70 of Flower)
Auto Pilot Day 6.. Checked the Trichomes and the bud density and both are looking good.. Definitely needs a little more time for the Trichomes to be where I like, so based on my check I think we are still looking right around the end of the competition 22June to be done and ready for harvest. I do like that the fade is coming in the leaves nicely, so my chart I think is dropping off the Nitrogen exactly like it is supposed to.

Week 10- Day 4 of Flower (Day 134 overall) (Day 74 of Flower)
Today I pulled an Armageddon however instead of darkness they are going to get 48 hours of light. The reason why they are going to get light instead of dark is when I was taking out the netting a lot of the buds were so heavy they fell over and exposed some areas I really want to get some light to... so 48 hours of light at 40% while I watch what should be a beautiful final fade as the plant eats up the last Nutes. If anything goes wrong I can abort take the photos and cut so will pay really close attention to how it is looking over the next 48 hours.
Added 30 Gallons of PH only Water.
Reduced Lighting to 40% removed program time off. 48 hours of light.

Week 10- Day 5 of Flower (Day 135 overall) (Day 75 of Flower)
I had someone tell me that a few growers had done as I did and Gone Armageddon on the plants. Filling it with PH only and said the plants did not respond well and they were taken out of the comp at the very end because they felt like the pictures just wouldn't come out right. Even though I did go Armageddon, The PPM is at 353PPM with the residue of what was left in the buckets after draining as well as what I am getting from the TAP so I think they are doing good but I am checking them every few hours to see how they seem to be doing and I think they are doing good still and are on track.
I also started prepping the area for the pics tomorrow
T-24 Hours until Chop

Week 10- Day 6 of Flower (Day 136 overall) (Day 76 of Flower) (Harvest Day)
What a day.. what a day.. what a day.. as I was setting up and trying to figure out how I was going to get my pics #3 stems started breaking, it fell over and other stems broke.. So no really stunning competition photo for her, she had such a nice purple fade.. #2 stayed up in the Tent so that is the one I had to go with to submit for the contest. I wet trimmed them as they went into the tent and they took up three rows hanging in tent. I also decided I wanted to try some so I put a little in the freeze dryer for a 48 hour smoke test.. I will weigh it and add that to my total weight for the plants when it is all done.
@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.
Congrats on the win 🎊🏆💪 Wow... it's so weird I never before came across you diary 🤔 we are grow light buddy's and in the Rdwc fam too👊
Awesome results and a great diary too 💐💚🍻
