Mon Jan 23 - it looks like the un PH'd feeding didn't have any negative effect on the plants. There are no signs of toxicity
Tue Jan 24 - normally I give the plants 4 days between feedings, but the last 2 times, I noticed that the plants were drooping and the soil
was bone dry at the end of the 3rd day. So for now I'm going to check on the plants on the 3rd day and potentially feed them
earlier based on the soil and how the plants look.
- so, I watered the plants with PH'd water this time!!! Plus, I added CannaMax Silica, RapidStart, Diamond Nectar, CalMag, Flora Micro,
Grow, Bloom and KoolBloom
- Also, I created my own feeding chart and it's pretty much double the aggressive feeding chart from General Hydroponics.
- My new feeding chart has a slightly lower Silica amount so I no longer need to use PH Down as the nutrients are able to
lower the PH automatically.
- The PPM of the nutrients was at 1,350 PPM
- They are now taking all of the nutrients as they have now gone over to flower.
- I did notice one thing… two of the plants are clearly switched over and the other 2 plants look to be a few days behind. I don't
even count the yellow plant as anything…that is just an science experiment to see what it'll do. I expect nothing from it.
- Apart from 2 plants being slightly ahead of the other 2, they all look good
Wed Jan 25 - The plants are looking good. No signs of nutrient toxicity. The plants are handling the higher levels of nutrients well
Sat Jan 28 - I watered the plants with CannaMax Silica, RapidStart, Diamond Nectar, Flora Micro, Grow, Bloom, and KoolBloom
- I probably should have watered the plants yesterday as they were drooping again… I've adjusted my reminders for every
3rd day instead of 4th day
- 2 plants are further along than the others.
- I decided to do a defoliation on them as there were a lot of leaves covering lower bud sites and there were bud sites that
were not developed enough to be worth keeping.
- I feel that it wasn't too heavy of a defoliation. I'm really hoping to not cause any herming of the plants.
